49ers better not have Kaepernick go down......
RolandDeschain":6jyyuh8l said:Yeah, scoring 3 against what should be a decent (but not great) B-more defense doesn't bode well for Gabbert. Not that I saw more than a little bit of the Ravens-49ers game.

Outside of those 2 guys and some surprising plays by Lawrence Okoye, the front 7 was pushed around all night.
Popeyejones":2kt09hfs said:^^^ it was happening through the A gaps, where Purcell and Borland were awful. Carradine and Dial had such high tackle numbers because they were breaking off and making those tackles 5 yards up field through the middle. Carradine has work to do as a run defender, but this year, he likely won't be in for too many run plays anyways (I'm guessing he'll be rotating in for McDonald on passing downs in the 2-4-5). They both held point of attack through the Bs & Cs pretty well (Dial in particular).
If there's things for 9ers fans to be concerned about coming away from this scrimmage, it's not Tank or Dial, IMO.

Like Harbs said, he got them in an out of the huddle smoothly, has a decent grasp on the playbook. I wouldnt put to much stock in the first pre game. Blaine has a ways to go but he will be ok. Smith had the same problems when Harbaugh was overhauling him.
