Found December 13, 2011 on thepigskinreport.com: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Frank Gore,  Jim Harbaugh
TEAMS: San Francisco 49ers,  Arizona Cardinals,  Pittsburgh Steelers

After only carrying the ball ten times in a 21-19 loss to the Arizona Cardinals, San Francisco 49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh told the media that RB Frank Gore is “not 100%“. Harbaugh would not explain exactly what is ailing Frank Gore however. “He’s got some things. He’s not 100% And we have other backs who got carries in the second half”, said Harbaugh. Gore is the 49ers leading rusher this season, eclipsing the 1,000 yard mark with 1,054 yards and six touchdowns. The San Francisco 49ers face their toughest test of the season this Monday night when they host the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Steelers have the top ranked pass defense and the 6th ranked rush defense, yielding just 97 yards per game. The last time the 49ers faced a defense on par with the Steelers was on Thanksgiving Day when they lost 16-6 at Baltimore to the Ravens. Harbaugh did not give any answers as to what Gore’s status Monday night would be.     Eric Schmidt is the owner/editor of...

GLENDALE, Ariz.–Jim Harbaugh was not very expansive in the minutes after the 49ers’ listless 21-19 loss, which is of zero surprise to anybody. He seemed intent on not pinning any blame on any specific area or player, which, again, is normal Harbaugh. Mostly, he seemed ticked off by the... Continue reading...

There is no doubt that the San Francisco 49ers have made incredible strides this season, with new Coach Jim Harbaugh taking the reigns behind a lowly team and their bust QB Alex Smith and making them into perennial winners. Not only has Smith resurfaced as a solid option, but the defense has been nothing short of phenomenal. In the future, the 49ers could certainly contend, but as...

Alex Smith has been really solid for the San Francisco 49ers this year

Via 49ers Locker  |  December 14, 2011
