The 49ers have done something the past two games that they have never previously done. They have started running the ball out of the shotgun formation. In their 10-6 victory over the Bears, the 49ers lined up in the shotgun 23 times. They called 13 pass plays and 10 runs.

Well that first thread was pretty crappy to say the least. Aside from one big Frank Gore run, the offense has been absolutely abysmal, thanks in large part to the continued inept play of the offensive line. Very little is actually going...

Singletary considers Bly over Brown for cornerback spot

If history has taught us anything, it's that when Singletary said he is considering making a change, it usually means the change is made.
Bly has been a starter throughout his career. He's been the team's third defensive back the entire season. Brown is coming off...

Veteran linebacker Takeo Spikes will not play today. Matt Wilhelm takes over as the 49ers' starting "ted" linebacker.
Also, Brandon Jones is not going to be in uniform for the game. That means Arnaz Battle will get another chance to return punts.

"That's the reason I'm here," Wilhelm said. "I know the defense. Some of the angles are a little different, but it's very similar to what I've had in the past. As a backup, you know if your opportunity arises, you have to be ready."
