Bruce makes way for Morgan
With little fanfare, the 49ers have moved on from Isaac Bruce to Josh Morgan in a bow to the imperatives of youth and promise over the declining skills of a once-great veteran. As Bruce himself said of the man who will now be starting in his place, "He's an...
Wilhelm might start for Spikes
Linebacker Takeo Spikes is listed as day-to-day with a strained hamstring incurred in the Chicago game, coach Mike Singletary said Tuesday. "If Takeo can't go, Matt Wilhelm will start," he said. Wilhelm, a seven-year veteran, was signed as a free agent by the...

High praise for 49ers' nose tackle

49ers an experiment behind Smith

49ERS GAME REVIEW
OFFENSE RATING: (SNOOZING VIEWER)The 49ers did not send out an NFL-worthy offense on Thursday night. Any offense that gets five turnovers from its defense and scores only 10 points should be ashamed of itself. On the (very minimal) plus side, the 49ers had...
