The Big Lead (Free subscription) | 10/13/2009
Mike Singletary: “But Singletary was pretty interesting when I asked him about his on-field verbal scrap with former 49ers lineman Harvey Dahl–complete with gesturing and pointing–and why he called those timeouts at the end of the game, down by 35.

Niners Nation (Free subscription) | 10/11/2009
@ Date: October 1, 2009 Time: 1:05pm PST Location: Bill Walsh Field @ Candlestick Park, San Francisco, CA Records: 49ers (3-1) Falcons (2-1) Bodoglife.com Spread : 49ers -2.5; Over/Under 40.5; Money Line: 49ers -140, Falcons +120 - A 2.5 point spread is rather interesting. The home team automatically gets 3 points. So I guess oddsmakers view the Falcons as just a touch better minus the home field....

49ers-Falcons Wednesday Injury Report
Niners Nation (Free subscription) | 10/08/2009
The 49ers remain a bit banged up this week. I remain convinced part of the reason Dave Baas is struggling is the continued injury issues. I realize he's been practicing a bit (or fully as in today) and playing each week, but it can't be easy to get into a sufficient rhythm to be a successful player. I'd love to hear other opinions, but Baas has definitely struggled and he has definitely been banged...
