SANTA CLARA — Jake Moody missed another goal attempt in Week 17, setting social media and talk radio ablaze. Time for the 49ers to get a new kicker, or at the very least some competition during training camp in 2025. Not necessarily, even if Shanahan threw his tablet on the sidelines in frustration after missing a 41-yard attempt in a 29-17 loss to the Miami Dolphins. “I believe we’ve got the right guy,” Shanahan said Thursday as the 49ers (6-9) began preparations to host the Detroit Lions (13-2). He’s showed that at times. I thought he showed that at times in his rookie year.I thought he showed that in being 12 of 13 to start the year and I think he’ll show that in the future.” But rest assured that Moody will be watched closely to see how he performs in the final two weeks of the season, beginning with a spotlight game on Monday night in a rematch of last year’s NFC Championship Game won 34-31 by the 49ers. Since the game is at Levi’s Stadium, Moody should enter with some confidence. He’s 23-for-30 on field goal attempts a 76.7 rate that’s unacceptable in today’s NFL, let alone for a kicker who was selected in the third round of the 2023 NFL Draft. But all seven of his misses have been on the road — one in Miami, two in Buffalo in the snow, three in Tampa Bay in the sunshine and one in Los Angeles. Which apparently came as news to Moody. “I actually didn’t know that,” Moody said. “That’s pretty interesting. I don’t think that necessarily has anything to do with it, being home or away. It’s just the misses, I’ve got to hit better kicks. It’s not any specific reason why I miss. I’ve just got to make sure I’m dialed in on my form.” Moody is 15-for-15 in field goal attempts at home, starting off 6-for-6 in the opener against the New York Jets. But Moody sustained a high ankle sprain on his right kicking foot in Week 5 against Arizona, missing three games as the 49ers cycled through Matthew Wright (also injured on a kick return) and Anders Carlson. “Since he’s come back, he hasn’t been as consistent, obviously,” Shanahan said. “I think a lot of it probably has to do with (the injury), just common-sense wise. Hopefully he can get to this offseason, heal up and find a stroke again.” Having a midseason injury was a “learning experience,” according to Moody. “Whether or not that was an issue, I don’t know. I’m still doing the best I can trying to keep everything that it was prior to the injury,” Moody said. “It’s not like you can really blame something.” Whether or not that was an issue, I don’t know. I’m still doing the best I can trying to keep everything that it was prior to the injury. It’s not like you can really blame something. While tempted to alter his approach and preparation, Moody thought better of it. He considers kicking similar to golf, and said it can take years for golfers to master a swing change. “In this business you don’t have that much time to try and dial something in and do big changes like that,” Moody said.”You’ve got to be consistent and not be changing too many things or you’ll be overwhelmed by everything.” While the 49ers may bring another kicker into camp just for an extra leg, Shanahan didn’t sound as if he was looking to set up a competition for No. 1. “I think you’ve got the wrong guy if you have to,” Shanahan said. “You do that when you don’t think you’re going to have a guy, but when those guys miss too much you go get a new one usually. And that’s what’s tough about the kicker position.” Shanahan hinted strongly Monday that linebacker Dre Greenlaw wouldn’t play in the last two games, saying he’d wait until talking to him before making it official. “He’s not going to play in these two games,” Shanahan said. “He understood.” Left tackle Spencer Burford (calf) did not practice and Shanahan thought there was a chance he’d be ready to face Detroit with Trent Williams and Jaylon Moore both on injured reserve. Left guard Aaron Banks (knee), who hasn’t yet been placed on I.R., did not practice and neither did edge rusher Robert Beal Jr. Those who were limited were safety Ji’Ayir Brown (ankle), running back Isaac Guerendo (foot/ankle). Nick Bosa (hip/oblique) was off the injury list. Veteran offensive lineman Matt Hennessey was added to the roster with Williams going on injured reserve, with Sebastian Gutierrez joining the practice squad. Shanahan will try to piecemeal an offensive line heading into Detroit, with newcomer Charlie Heck also in the mix. “We’ve got to mix and match a number of guys,” Shanahan said. The 49ers activated the practice clock on rookie linebacker Tatum Bethune, who has been out with a knee injury in hopes of getting him back before the end of the regular season. Detroit Dan Campbell thinks last year’s loss to the 49ers in the NFC Championship Game helped prepare them for taking another run at this season. “I think we’re really more mature,” Campbell told the Detroit media. “Every year you learn something about winning and losing. And when you take an `L’ like we did last year you learn from that . . . I think we’re much more prepared than at that time. You feel like you’re (prepared) but you get into that with a heavyweight that’s been there numerous times, you don’t always know. I think that as an experience has served us well moving into this year.” The Lions have also taken notice of what happened to the 49ers in 2022 when Brock Purdy tore the UCL in his throwing elbow in the NFC title game against Philadelphia and didn’t have a viable quarterback. Veteran quarterback Teddy Bridgewater was signed to the roster, giving the Lions three quarterbacks along with starter Jared Goff and backup Hendon Hooker. — Tight end George Kittle (68 receptions, 967 yards) needs 33 yards receiving to reach 1,000 for the fourth time in his career and second in succession.

The excitement around space exploration is reaching new heights. With visionary companies like Elon Musk's SpaceX and Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin leading the charge, what was once a government-exclusive venture is now being led by the private sector. This shift has investors eager to jump on opportunities in the booming space sector. While SpaceX sparks a lot of enthusiasm, the company isn't planning a public stock offering anytime soon. However, one competitor is available for investors to buy today: Rocket Lab USA ( RKLB -4.29% ) . Rocket Lab has taken off in 2024, surging 409% as it continues to ramp up its launch cadence . Looking ahead to 2025, the company is positioned to grow its margins and profits. Here's why. Its Electron is a top small satellite launch vehicle Rocket Lab has become a go-to partner for companies launching small satellites into orbit. With its flagship rocket, the Electron, the space company has emerged as a top player in the industry and has the second-most-utilized orbital rocket in the U.S. Electron's smaller size makes it ideal for frequent and cost-effective missions for clients with small payloads. Since its inception in 2017, Rocket Lab has completed 57 missions, including 15 in 2024. Rocket Lab competes with SpaceX's Falcon launch vehicle, but the race isn't close. SpaceX currently dominates the market, accounting for 98 launches, or a staggering 90% of the total launches by U.S.-based companies in 2023. On the financial front, Rocket Lab USA is growing steadily. This year, the company has generated an impressive $304 million in revenue and $79 million in gross profit, thanks partly to its launch service business. But that's not all. Rocket Lab has a bustling space systems business providing design and manufacturing services for spacecraft components. This segment alone contributed $220 million to revenue, making up 72% of its total gross profit through three quarters this year. RKLB Revenue (TTM) data by YCharts Looking ahead to 2025 One thing limiting Rocket Lab is its smaller Electron rocket. Although this smaller rocket means more frequent flights, the company earns less profit per launch. Its Electron launch vehicle earns roughly $7.5 million per launch. Rocket Lab is also limited from handling more lucrative civil and defense payloads, giving competitors like SpaceX a significant advantage. However, Rocket Lab plans to debut its Neutron rocket, which it has been developing since 2021, in 2025. With a payload capacity of 13,000 kilograms, 60 times more than its Electron rocket, Neutron positions Rocket Lab to better compete head-to-head with SpaceX's Falcon 9 launch vehicle. At $50 million and $55 million per launch, Neutron is set to unlock revenue and profit that is six times greater than Electron , paving the way for significant growth and expanding margins. Recently, Rocket Lab made headlines by successfully firing its Archimedes engine for the first time at NASA's Stennis Space Center. This engine will power the first stage of its Neutron rocket, and the test validates the design and demonstrates the engine's operability. CEO Peter Beck believes this progress helps keep the company on track for a mid-2025 launch of the Neutron rocket. Analysts forecast that Rocket Lab will generate $596 million in 2025, representing a robust 40% growth from this year's projected revenue. The company is expected to reduce losses from $186 million this year to a $145 million loss next year, with earnings projected to turn positive by 2027. Is Rocket Lab right for you? Rocket Lab is making solid progress and is scheduled for a mid-2025 launch of its Neutron vehicle, which is promising news for investors. The company also boasts a robust backlog of $1.05 billion, representing contracts for future launch services and space systems work. This is up 80% year over year and shows strong demand for Rocket Lab's services. The ongoing developments surrounding the Neutron vehicle are generally positive; however, any setbacks could potentially delay the company's profitability goals. Rocket Lab stock has experienced notable gains this year and is currently valued at 23 times projected sales for the upcoming year. For this reason, the stock's high valuation and volatile nature aren't ideal for conservative investors prioritizing capital preservation. That said, Rocket Lab presents an intriguing investment opportunity for investors with a higher tolerance for risk who are looking for long-term growth potential. Just be aware of the volatility and lack of current profits, and consider dollar-cost averaging into the position over time as Rocket Lab makes good on its long-term goals.Social media pays tribute to legendary CBS sports anchor Greg Gumbel, who died at 78

Volvo T5 Vs. T6: What's The Difference Between These Engines?

McLaren driver Lando Norris has previously refused to accept that Max Verstappen is the dominant force in F1 because he’s simply a better driver. The Red Bull man eventually finished 63 points clear of Norris in the drivers’ standings, winning a fourth consecutive world title with two races to spare. That’s despite the British team appearing to be superior in pace in the latter half of the campaign, with Norris briefly threatening to haul down the Dutchman’s lead. That didn’t materialise, but McLaren did finish the season with a first constructors’ crown since 1998. Norris, who ended the 2023 season still without a Grand Prix win to his name, still enjoyed a breakthrough campaign as he notched his first four F1 victories. But in interview with the Athletic in October, he was defensive when asked why he was struggling to keep pace with Verstappen in the standings, also citing seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton in his answer. "They've experienced a lot more,” he said. “They've experienced a lot more in Formula 1. But it's more experiencing situations and dealing with situations that I haven't experienced yet. “It's not so much that because they've been driving a car longer, they're better drivers. It's more certain situations where you're racing against people or you have to make decisions." The last eight F1 titles have now been shared between Verstappen and Hamilton. The last season that an alternate name to those two was on the trophy was in 2016, when Nico Rosberg prevailed over his British team-mate before immediately retiring. Norris, 25, has been criticised this year for making errors as he pushed in races, and relations also got spiky between him and Verstappen after a number of racing incidents between the pair. But before the season ended, he also insisted he was working hard to make adjustments. "I'm probably working more than ever on every area to try to improve and eliminate as many weaknesses as possible,” he said. “Life hasn't changed per se, but I'm just trying to work in a different way and perform better. It's as simple as that." Verstappen and Norris had previously been considered close friends before their title battle. And this week, the Red Bull man insisted that notion had not been affected, and blamed “social media idiots” for exaggerating tensions. "Lando and I, we got on very well,” he told the Talking Bull podcast. “Of course, at times it got a bit tense on track but off the track, that shouldn't matter. We always try to do the best we can on track to get the best possible result.”
