Golden Nuggets: Testing the run defense

Fri, 06 Nov 2009 06:15:18 -0500

Good (insert time of day here) everyone. Got a couple links for you today, though not as many as yesterday. In fact, I'm going to start leaving links out! From what I can tell, when I have more links in the Nuggets I actually get very little comments on the links. Of course, I'm like a little preteen girl checking her MySpace Photo Album when it comes to comments, I love 'em. ESPECIALLY if they're singing my praise, really brings me up. (Been having a really rough couple o...

49ers seem confident in Sims

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 03:24:36 -0500

SANTA CLARA – The 49ers' top offensive lineman, left tackle Joe Staley, is out for six weeks because of a sprained knee, but the only compensation the team made for the loss this week was adding another tackle to the practice squad. Translation: In Barry Sims we trust. Sims, the 49ers' 11th-year tackle, eased a lot of the concern over Staley's absence by filling in and playing well Sunday against Dwight Freeney and the fearsome Indianapolis pass rush. Freeney finished with ...

News and notes from Wednesday in 49erland

Of course, Joe Staley (knee), Nate Clements (shoulder) and Demetric Evans (shoulder) are out with injuries. Jean-Francois will be the 49ers' fifth defensive lineman, while Patrick will take over as the team's backup at both left and right tackle spots. Barry Sims was the 49ers' backup tackle, but he will now start at left tackle in place of Staley. Tony Wragge will remain as the team's backup at center and the two guard positions. * * * Coach Mike Singletary ...

Will Alex Smith now be different?

Tue, 27 Oct 2009 21:54:55 -0500

Tony Pashos is out, Adam Snyder or Barry Sims is in, Shaun Hill is out, Alex Smith is in, so much to analyze, where do you begin? It might first be instructive to take a gander at Smith's second half against Houston and then determine what that portends for his and the 49ers' future. ...

49ers OT Barry Sims Struggled Vs. Saints

Right tackle Barry Sims has been in the league long enough to own up to poor play, and Sunday was not one of his better games. The former Raider was...

Breaking Down the Niners Roster By College Conference

Tue, 08 Jul 2008 17:44:11 -0500

There are 82 players listed on the 49ers roster on their official web site. Although around 30 of those gentlemen will head toward the chopping block before the summer ends, I thought it would be fun to see the college conference (and school) affiliations of the players on the roster. Are there more Pac-10ers than SECers? Let's find out: Pac 10 (16)

Barry Sims Chooses The Bay Area

Mon, 23 Jun 2008 23:54:09 -0500

He worked out for the Baltimore Ravens and several other teams, but in the end, offensive tackle Barry Sims picked the San Francisco 49ers as his new NFL club. He was to be the best post-Ogden option at the position until Jared Gaither was ready to take the spot. Chances are, Sims would've held it down on the left side for a couple of games only to relinquish the left side to big JG early on in the season. Just too much girth and too much raw talent to build experience in camp and practice.
