Frank Gore trashes Trent Baalke, to the delight of 49ers fans

Former 49ers general manager Trent Baalke found himself in the target of Frank Gore’s disdain Sunday.

After Gore helped the Colts beat the 49ers, he reportedly ripped Baalke’s handling of the 49ers team that went to Super Bowl XLVII before breaking up unceremoniously.

“Trent messed that team up,” Gore said, per Ann Killion of the San Francisco Chronicle.

It’s easy to guess Gore connected Baalke’s apparent beef with then-coach Jim Harbaugh with San Francisco’s downfall — and Twitter users did just that once Killion tweeted Gore’s quote.

(That narrative is only boosted by Gore reportedly talking with 49ers owner Jed York after the game).
