Kyle Shanahan on Australia opener: Wish it was here, but we'll play the Rams wherever
49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan has made clear this offseason that he doesn’t think his team benefits from opening the season in Australia. He made that point again after Thursday night's preseason finale.
The 49ers-Rams game on Thursday, September 10, is a designated Rams home game, but Shanahan says the 49ers' fan base always turns out so well in Los Angeles that they view that as a home game, and he'd take that over an extremely long road trip to Australia.
"I wish we played them here, for what we usually look at as a home game, but we'll see how it is in Australia," Shanahan said. "We'll play the Rams wherever. Going there, it is what it is, but it's going to be a fun atmosphere and always when we play the Rams it's a big, tough game, so, looking forward to it."
Rams coach Sean McVay also said after his team's preseason finale on Thursday night that the schedule is a challenge, but he said that's just how the NFL scheduled his team this season.
"It's a little bit different, but we'll have a unique schedule in general, just based on, it seems like we play every day of the week this year," McVay said. "So that won't be an excuse."

Is college football healthy? It’s a seductive question, one that now comes up every year around this time. Actually, it never recedes, so it’s just with the sport all the time. It’s also the wrong question, because whoever answers it is free to choose their own adventure. The television ratings are way up there in the galaxy. Money rains down on dozens of programs and thousands of players. Marching bands continue to march. Yet a lot of teams are stranded by realignment or an economic inability to keep up in a transfer arms race. Their fans – actually any team’s fans – may be exhausted by escalating asks for their dollars.
If you have been checked out of the sport for a while ahead of this weekend’s first set of games, you may feel like your body has been frozen for a few decades. Indiana, (yes, really) are the defending national champs, fresh off a 16-0 season that puts them on the list of the handful of best teams ever. Texas Tech, once likened to Siberia by a former coach who is now a US senator, are the fiercest program in the Big 12. Ole Miss are good for the first time since integration. At least Ohio State and Georgia are still powerhouses.
