The Vibe: Bye weeks are here, and so is a brutal wave of injuries. Milton kicks things off by tipping his hat to the ultimate "dawg," Mac Jones, who is thriving in the 49ers' system after being "damaged goods" in New England.TNF Recap: The 49ers beat the Rams 26-23 in a gutsy, "rock-punk" performance. With a massive injury list, the Niners' rag-tag squad, led by Jones, played with heart and fire, sealing the win with a game-ending forced fumble.The News: The injury bug has mutated into a monster.Devastating: Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill is out for the season with a dislocated knee and torn ACL.Major QBs Out: Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (hamstring) is ruled out, and 49ers QB Brock Purdy(turf toe) suffered a setback and is week-to-week.RB Carnage: Cardinals RB Trey Benson (knee) is on IR, Jets RB Braelon Allen (MCL) is out 8-12 weeks, and Bucs RB Bucky Irving (foot) is expected to miss Week 5.WR Woes: Terry McLaurin is out, CeeDee Lamb is still out, and Calvin Ridley is not practicing.The Game Script: Our look ahead at a depleted Week 5:Vikings vs. Browns (London): A storm in London means heavy rain and wind.
