EZRA SHAW Getty Images Justin Gage's leaping 33-yard reception helps set up a two-yard touchdown run by Chris Johnson that gave the Titans a 24-20 lead over the 49ers in the fourth quarter. SAN FRANCISCO In uniform for just the third time this season, wide receiver Jason Hill made the most of his opportunity Sunday. Hill caught four passes for 50 yards and two touchdowns. The first was one...
There's nothing all that shocking in today's practice report. The 49ers are banged up as expected in certain areas, although they might be getting Reggie Smith back this week. Given the depth issues at cornerback, I'd imagine Smith might get to move around a bit on the field if he's healthy. He's listed as a safety, but he does have plenty of corner experience. I've also attached the post-practice...

If they win and establish the first streak (winning or losing) of the season, the Texans will be in the driver seat heading into the Buffalo and then a string of four pivotal division games. If they lose, then the chances...

More photos » by Jeff Roberson - AP Browse more photos » A few weeks back we were discussing Seattle Seahawks TE John Carlson and defending him, given his abilities. This week, the 49ers face a better tight end in a better offense, so that discussion takes on a whole new meaning. Tony Gonzalez is what John Carlson aspires to be, and the Falcons ' offense he's apart of has the ability to...
The 49 ers haven't looked this good to start a season in years, and it's got bay area football fans buzzing. The Niners improved to 2-0 after ripping the Seahawks apart in Seattle on Sunday, 23-10. Everyone wants to talk about Frank Gore after Sunday's game, and rightfully so after he rushed for 207 yards and a couple of scores, but what's really carried the Niners through the first two weeks of the...

Parys Haralson can't remember exactly how he learned that the NFL had slipped him a bonus of $241,000, more than half his 2008 salary, in March as a reward for contributing well above his pay grade. "I forget, think I just saw the check stub," he said. "It...
Nobody outside of the 49ers locker room really expected the 49ers to beat the reigning NFC champs in their own backyard, but Mike Singletary's bunch came to play on Sunday, and really caused havoc on Cardinals high-powered passing attack. If you would have told me before the game that Frank Gore would rush for just 30 yards and the Niners would pull off the upset, I would have called you crazy, but...

GLENDALE, Ariz. Kurt Warner learned a powerful lesson Sunday afternoon: Don't trust what you see in the exhibition season. A 49ers pass rush that looked feeble in August sprang to life against the Cardinals, sacking Warner three times and, perhaps more important, forcing him to make several bad throws. One of the chief protagonists was outside linebacker Parys Haralson, who gave Arizona right...
More photos » by Matt York - AP Browse more photos » Good lord. I really can't handle too many games like this. YOUR San Francisco 49ers went in to Glendale, Arizona and pulled out the 20-16 victory thanks in large part to some really sloppy play by the Cardinals . How sloppy? How about 12 penalties for 82 yards. The 49ers defense was as impressive as they've been since pre-Erickson, but...
The 49ers start the season off with a win against their division rival Cardinals. Thanks in part to Justin Smith, Parys Haralson and the rest of the 49ers defense.
