So are we now already going to hear the same thing from Falcons fans as we heard last year? That there were too many injuries to win?

Starting LT and best player on D both gone without a meaningful snap played, so MAYBE!

Trufant's gone?

Problem is that pretty much no team has good depth after their first QB unless you have a young kid who was a second or later pick.

True; but, still. Right now, the Niners would likely have one of the worst 2nd stringers in the league. Which sucks.

 

[Tapate50]

Trufant's gone?

Spoon. He was all we got at LB, and as good as a year as Tru had, he needs to back it up.

I would also put Willy Moore over Trufant right now.

It is just brutal watching the 49ers with a backup QB. I liked the way the offense was starting to move the ball with Kaep under center but even that was a struggle. The key is going to be not losing too many games in the first 5-6 games. 49ers have consistently gotten much better as the season progressed.

It's pre-season, but it's not a refreshing sign to be completely blown out in two games and not score a touchdown either. Granted half the defense didn't play, but overall the team is just not firing on all or any cylinders right now. There is time to get things corrected, but that needs to be done real fast.

Watching this MNF game for a little tonight. There have been like 10 penalties called and at least 3-4 flags that were picked up. Seriously what is happening to the league? Are all games going to be called like this now?

Hope not but if so, welcome to 4 hour games.

Cardinals believe Darnell Docket has torn his ACL.

Gil Brandt seems to believe Alex Boone turned down a four year extension from the 49ers. This "offer" would have made him paid as a top 12 guard in the entire league.

If this is the case, don't let the door hit you on your way out then.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Heyward have you heard anything on Bennie Fowler? Any chance he can make the team.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Cardinals confirm that Dockett will have season ending surgery.

He's been ok, i doubt he makes the team.

Probably try to stash him on the PS, although some team may claim him who needs a WR.

Burger Bill said it was Top 25, not Top 12.

Don't know who that is.

Oh Johnny Manziel, you have some maturing still to do, young man.

I like that Connor Shaw outplayed Hoyer and Manziel thoroughly.
