Top 5 Most Annoying Fan Bases In The NFL (1:08)

The San Francisco 49ers got their butts kicked by the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field last Sunday. 

The Packers took a quick 10-0 lead in the first quarter and were up 17-7 at halftime before winning the game by 28, 38-10. The loss dropped the 49ers to 5-6 heading into their next game against the Buffalo Bills. 

After the loss, 49ers star wide receiver Deebo Samuel didn't speak to the media, which confused some people. That said, he later confirmed that he was not approached by the media after he got dressed, allowing him to leave the locker room.

"Normally after the game, if you're obligated to speak to the media, they will approach you. I wasn't approached after I got dressed, therefore I headed out of the locker room. So I don't know where that narrative came from," Samuel said

Samuel was limited during Sunday's game, finishing with just one reception for 21 yards. The Packers did a great job of making sure that he wouldn't beat them throughout the game. 

The 49ers were without staring quarterback Brock Purdy for the game since he's banged up. Brandon Allen got the start and finished with 199 passing yards, a touchdown, and an interception.

The schedule won't get easier this Sunday when the 49ers travel to Orchard Park to take on the Bills on Sunday Night Football.

A win gets the 49ers to 6-6 while a loss drops them to 5-7 and further out of the NFC playoff picture. Kickoff will be at 8:20 p.m. ET on NBC.
