No major injuries

Niners still have to win 3 of next 4 to get in the playoffs. Hawks still control HFA and their own destiny. I can live with this loss. Sucks we gave up that big play when we did. Couldn't have come at a worse time, but great game by both teams.

Well do we know about Unger and Wright?

Yeah, Unger and KJ got hurt and didn't return. KJ's seems especially concerning as you don't flip out on the sideline like he did for something that is minor.

Similar to how we lost the Atlanta game in the playoffs. Defensive collapse at the worst possible time. I can live with the loss. I was expecting it anyways and was just hoping we could pull it out. And it sounded like that "how to be a 12th man" thing paid off. They were crazy down there... Like I've never heard them before.

How do you know there were no major injuries? Wright and Unger couldn't even return. And Wright had bad news about his foot which is what made him so mad. For all we know, he's done for the year. Way too early to speculate of course, but we can't say there are no major injuries yet.

Curious about his flip out.

Gone for the season likely. Prepare yourselves.

We might well have had two major injuries.

Wright done for the year. Broken foot.

What I'm seeing is six weeks for Wright, not done for the year. We could have him back for the SB.

Pec strain for Unger, which I guess isn't bad since I was fearing broken ribs.

Unger has a pec strain aka a pec tear. We'll see how bad it is

This sucks a lot. He's the screen/flat killer.

You're right he could be back. I'm just not going to count on it. I said done for the year before I heard the 6 week diagnosis.

Jeron Johnson hurt his other hamstring that he was previously out several weeks for.

a pec tear could require surgery and would be a season ending surgery...Wright is a huge loss!!

Seeing Wright go out I felt we wouldn't skip a beat with Malcolm Smith in. He's been playing strong at WLB and came up with a huge sack. If we lose another LB then I will start to worry a bit.

Damn...I'd hoped for good news in this thread. Nothing is going to come easy for this team. But nothing worth having is. Or some sh*t like that.

As ppl have said... Wright is a huge loss. Broken foot. I doubt he plays again this season. Thankfully, I'm fully confident that Malcolm Smith can be inserted into our starting unit with marginal dropoff. If anyone ELSE gets hurt, I'll be a tad worried.

I just checked the stats and Smith didn't get a sack. I must have just dreamed him sacking Kaepernick for a huge loss on 3rd down?

OP - change the title
