49ERS 2009 SCHEDULE

SAN FRANCISCO 49ersGame Release

The 49ers host the Tennessee Titans in what will be the 12th meeting between the two teams, dating back to 1970. The last time San Fran-cisco faced Tennessee was in 2005, when they were defeated by the Titans, 33-22, in Nashville. The 49ers look to snap a three-game losing streak after falling to the Colts, 18-14, in Indianapolis last week. After jumping out to an early 7-0 lead on a 64-yard touchdown run by RB Frank Gore, 49ers QB Alex Smith connected with TE Vernon Davis on an 8-yard touchdown pass late in the 2nd quarter to give the team a 14-9 advantage heading into halftime. The Colts went on to score nine unanswered points in the second half to claim victory. Gore recorded his third touchdown carry of over 60 yards this season, while Davis posted his seventh touchdown reception and continues to lead the NFL in receiving scores. The upcoming game showcases a tough San Francisco run defense (84.9 ypg. - 2nd in the NFL) against a high-powered Tennessee ground attack (162.3 ypg. - 2nd in the NFL).

PLAYER HIGHLIGHTS VS. TITANS

Mike Singletary is in his first full season as the head coach of the 49ers. A two-time Defensive Player of the Year (1985 &1988), Singletary played 12 seasons (1981-92) for the Chicago Bears and earned countless hon-ors, including 10 consecutive Pro Bowl nods and eight first-team All-Pro selections. After retiring in 1993, he decided to take time away from the game to raise a family. In 2003, Singletary broke into the coaching ranks as the inside linebackers coach for the Baltimore Ravens. He then moved on to the 49ers in 2005, where he served as the assistant head coach and linebackers coach. A year later, he was elevated to assistant head coach/defense, a title which he held until taking over as the 49ers head coach midway through the 2008 season. He went on to compile a 5-4 record that year, which included victories in five of the final seven contests of the season.

Jeff Fisher enters his 15th full season as the head coach of the Ten-nessee Titans. During his tenure, Fisher has led the Titans to 6 playoff appearances, with only 2 other teams recording more postseason bids. He also has captured 3 division titles and an AFC Championship leading to a berth in Super Bowl XXXIV, in 2000. In 2008, Fisher led the Titans to one of their most successful seasons, going 13-3 and winning the AFC South. Tennessee finished 7th in the NFL in rushing and 3rd in the AFC, totaling 2,199 yards on the ground.

49ers head coach Mike Singletary is one of nine current head coach-es who has playing experience in the NFL. Singletary was selected by the Chicago Bears in the second round of the 1981 NFL Draft with the 38th overall pick. In the seventh game of his rookie season, he earned a starting role and found his niche as the cornerstone of the Bears “46” defense. A two-time Associated Press Defensive Player of the Year award winner (1985 & 1988), Singletary was named to the NFL Team of the ‘80s after being selected to play in a team-record 10 consecutive Pro Bowls. The former Bears defensive captain was also named first-team All-Pro eight times (1983-89; 1991), second-team All-Pro twice and All-NFC nine times. Singletary finished each of his final 11 seasons on Chicago’s defense ranked either first or second in tackles, and at the end of his career, had amassed 1,488 tackles, 885 solo tackles, 51 passes defensed, 12 fumble recoveries and seven interceptions. He also started a defensive team record 172 games for the Bears, trailing only running back Walter Payton’s 184 career starts for the all-time lead.

FIRST HAND EXPERIENCE

Tennessee 33, San Francisco 22At Nashville, TN, November 27, 2005

The San Francisco 49ers could not hold on to a 14-9 halftime lead, allowing Tennessee to take control of the game after scoring 21 3rd quarter points en route to a 33-22 Titans win. The 49ers played well in the 1st half and seemed to have the momentum after CB Shawntae Spencer returned an INT 62 yards for a TD with just :38 seconds to play before halftime to give SF a 14-9 lead. Tennessee QB Steve McNair, who finished the day with 343 yards passing and 3 TD passes, directed a big 3rd quarter that helped give Tennessee the win. McNair completed 5 of 7 passes for 142 yards and 3 TDs in the 3rd quarter. McNair completed TD passes of 41 and 50 yards within 80 seconds of each other on Tennessee’s first two offensive plays in the 2nd half. The San Francisco defense opened the 2nd half by holding the Titans on three straight plays, forcing them to punt from deep in their own territory. WR Otis Amey muffed the punt return and Tennessee took over at the SF 41-yard line. On the first play from scrimmage, McNair connected with RB Chris Brown on a short pass that was turned into a 41- yard TD. The 49ers were held on the ensuing drive, and a punt by P Andy Lee was returned 19 yards by Titans rookie CB Pacman Jones for a first down at midfield. On the next play, McNair completed a 50 yard TD pass to WR Roydell Williams for a 23-14 lead. McNair culminated an 8-play, 68-yard drive with a 4-yard TD pass to TE Erron Kinney on the Titans next drive for a 30-14 advantage. McNair kept the drive alive with a 38-yard pass to Williams on a 3rd-and-5 play to give Tennessee a first down deep in SF territory. The 49ers went 3-and-out in all four drives in the 3rd quarter, gained no first downs and netted just 17 yards. After Tennessee added a FG in the 4th quarter to take a 33-14 lead, the 49ers mounted a 15-play, 82-yard drive that ended when QB Ken Dorsey completed a 17-yard TD pass to WR Arnaz Battle on a 4th-down play. Dorsey and RB Terry Jackson connected on the 2-point play to cut the Titans lead to 33-22 with 1:15 to play. K Jose Cortez’s onsides kick attempt was recovered by CB Derrick Johnson, but the 49ers drive ended when Dorsey was stripped of the football with five seconds remaining.

MUSIC TO MY EARS Jimmy Raye has a history of getting the most out of his running backs and tight ends, which is music to the ears of both RB Frank Gore and TE Vernon Davis. From 1983-84, Raye orchestrated a Los Angeles Rams offense that featured RB Eric Dickerson, who rushed for 2,105 yards in 1984 and 1,808 yards in 1983. Several years later, Raye guided TE Tony Gonzalez to the 2nd highest receiving total of his career (1,203 in 2000), while serving as the Chiefs offensive coordinator from 1998-2000. Hav-ing knowledge of Raye’s past, Davis is looking forward to an increased role in the passing game in 2009. “Since I’ve been here, I haven’t really had the opportunity to showcase what I could do, but now that Jimmy Raye has come in, he’s given me a lot more opportunity to make plays,” said Davis. Davis’ seven TD receptions currently lead all NFL receivers, while his 375 receiving yards rank 2nd in the NFC and 6th in the NFL. Davis has 135 career receptions for 1,507 yards and 16 TDs in his career. “I think with his speed and athleticism, his ability to in-line block and the fact that he can block a defensive end in the league, which is unusual for a tight end, and having the combination of the ability to go downfield and matchup and catch the ball, I see him being a very good fit.” Raye said.

One of the main messages head coach Mike Singletary stressed to the team this offseason was the importance of playing smart. After sur-rendering a league-high 35 giveaways in 2008, San Francisco has sur-rendered just 9 giveaways over seven games this season, while also recording 10 takeaways. The +1 turnover ratio is a stark contrast to the -17 differential from 2008, which ranked tied for 31st in the NFL. With the exception of Kan-sas City and Buffalo, each team that has +1 turnover ratio or better this season has a .500 winning percentage or higher.

The 9 giveaways are tied for the 8th fewest in the NFL this season. “One of the things we talk about as a team is not losing football games,” said Singletary following the win against St. Louis. “Making other teams earn every point they get. When you turn the ball over, it is a formula for disaster, and our guys understand that offensively. Our guys understand that defensively. It just takes the breath out of you. The more turnovers you get, the more it lessens your opportunity to be successful.”

PRODUCTIVE PLAY INSIDE THE 30

Under the guidance of defensive coordinator Greg Manusky, the 49ers defense has steadily improved in numerous categories. Manusky, who played 12 seasons in the NFL as a linebacker, saw his unit excel during the final half of the 2008 season. With a simplified 3-4 alignment, the 49ers defense went from ranking 23rd in the NFL after seven games played to 13th by season’s end. Manusky’s defense has done especially well in creating turnovers in 2009, recording 10 takeaways in seven games played.The 49ers are on pace to total 35 sacks on the season after recording 16 in the first seven games of the 2009 season. The 37 sacks would be the most since 2003 when the team posted 42 sacks. Since Manusky took over the 49ers defense in 2007, the results have been positive.

The group ranks tied for 2nd in the NFL since 2007 with 4 blocked field goals, while also having returned the most blocked field goals for TDs (3) during that span. Against St. Louis, LB Scott McKillop recovered a muffed punt by Rams CB Quincy Butler in the end zone. It marked the second consecu-tive week that the special teams unit had registered a touchdown. Against Minnesota, DT Ray McDonald blocked a 44-yard field goal attempt by PK Ryan Longwell, which was scooped up by CB Nate Cle-ments and returned 59 yards for a touchdown. The score occurred on the final play of the first half and gave the 49ers a 14-13 lead. The last time the 49ers blocked a field goal and returned it for a touchdown was at New York Giants (10/19/08), which was also returned by Clements (74-yard return). McDonald’s previous blocked field goal, which came vs. Philadelphia (10/12/08), was also returned for a touchdown (CB Don-ald Strickland – 41-yard return).

Head coach Mike Singletary is known to be the 49ers living, breathing quote machine. Whether it’s a stirring pre-game speech, a mid-practice pep talk or an enthusiastic post-game press conference, the Hall of Famer knows how to passionately deliver a message. With more than a week of “Camp Singletary” under their belts, the new head coach’s pupils sounded off about the man charged with leading them back to greatness. When asked to give a word that best describes Sin-gletary, none of these team leaders stopped at one. Go figure the word “intense” came up multiple times.

Linebacker Patrick Willis - “Perfectionist. We expect to be in the Super Bowl under coach Singletary’s guidance, that’s the God’s honest truth. The way we’ve gone about working, the time that we’ve put in and the way that he’s forming this team as one, is not something that you do just to win games but to build a championship team.”

Center Eric Heitmann - “Committed. Coach Singletary is a tremendous motivator and leader. He is incredibly driven and I really admire the way that he’s brought this team together and made it more of a family atmo-sphere amongst the players.”

Running Back Frank Gore - “Indescribable. I like that he keeps it 100% with the team. He knows what we need to do if we want to be one of the elite teams in this league. I know that he cares about what we do out there. I know that if we’re doing the right thing, it’s going to carry over to the field on Sundays.”

Tight End Vernon Davis - “No nonsense. He wants us to be a family and stick together, be there for one another and just play this game the way it is supposed to be played.”

Tackle Joe Staley - “Intense. If you know Singletary, you know that he’s known for his intensity and being physical with an ‘F,’ as he puts it. Everybody sees his fire, his passion and his intensity for football. The passion that he brings rubs off on this organization and it’s exciting.”

Quarterback Shaun Hill - “Champion. The thing that I really like and respect about him is he’s completely open and honest with us. I hope that this team, under his tutelage, continues to gel and mold and turn into the team that he envisions us to be. I think we’re on our way to do-ing that.”

Cornerback Nate Clements - “Old-school. He played the game. He’s one of those coaches that has been to the Super Bowl and has expe-rienced what we’re trying to achieve here. We listen to what he has to say because he’s already experienced what we’re trying to accomplish.”

Safety Michael Lewis - “Strong. With coach Singletary every small de-tail counts and it leads to the success of the team. What we’re trying to build here is a family atmosphere where we can trust one another and also play for one another.”

SING-ING HIS PRAISES When 49ers head coach Mike Singletary was filling out his coaching staff this past offseason, he sought individuals who could not only teach, but also inspire. He went on to add five new faces to what he considered an already “special” group of coaches, while also elevating Johnnie Lynn to the position of special assistant to the head coach/secondary.

Offensive Coordinator - Jimmy RayeRaye rejoined the 49ers after originally serving as the San Francisco’s wide receivers coach in 1977. He has over 30 years of NFL coaching experience, including a total of 12 years as an offensive coordinator for several teams: Los Angeles Rams (1983-84, ‘91), Tampa Bay Bucs (1985-86), New England Patriots (1990), Kansas City Chiefs (1998-2000), Washington Redskins (2001) and Oakland Raiders (2004-05).

“When I sat down and listened to what he had to say, in terms of what his philosophy was and the conviction behind it, he talked about the physicality that the offense has to have. He talked about the toughness, both mentally and physically, that the offense has to have. The discipline it takes to do those things. That to me, that was something that we were really excited about.” - Mike Singletary

Pass Rush Specialist - Al HarrisHarris, who is in his first season as an NFL coach, enjoyed a stellar 11-year playing career with the Chicago Bears (1979-84, ‘86-88) and Philadelphia Eagles (1989-90).

“Al Harris’ greatest attribute is as a teacher. We’re excited about the ad-dition of Al because our players will benefit from his teaching ability, in terms of the strategy and methodology of what goes into the pass rush.” - Mike Singletary

Offensive Assistant - Jason MichaelMichael brings both NFL and collegiate coaching experience to San Francisco. Prior to joining the 49ers, he served as the tight ends coach at the University of Tennessee in 2008, after coaching two years (2006-07) with the New York Jets and one season with the Raiders (2005).

“I have familiarity with Jason from my time with the Raiders and Jets. He’s an extremely organized individual with innate intelligence. Jason has a great feel for defensive game-planning and the type of football we’d like to run. He’s very much a parrt of what we do.” - Jimmy Raye

Running Backs - Tom RathmanRathman is in his 2nd coaching stint with the 49ers, having coached running backs for San Francisco 1997-2002. In five of his six seasons with the team, the 49ers rushing attack finished in the top 10 among NFL teams. As a player, Rathman helped the 49ers win two Super Bowl Championships and seven NFC West titles during a playing career that spanned nine years (1986-94).

“I think Tom has developed a good rapport with all the running backs, getting to know who they are and coaching them hard, and at the same time being that father figure when you have to listen and help them work through things.” - Mike Singletary

Inside Linebackers - Vantz SingletarySingletary joins the 49ers after coaching 17 seasons in the collegiate ranks. In 2008, he served as the defensive tackles coach at the Uni-versity of Buffalo, where he helped lead the school to its first ever bowl appearance.

“Vantz has had a tremendous career during his many seasons as a col-legiate coach. I am confident that the way he has worked with young football players during that extensive experience will translate into suc-cess as he embarks on his NFL coaching career.” - Mike Singletary

UNDRAFTED SUCCESSBecoming a starting QB in the NFL is tough. It’s even tougher when

you enter the league as an undrafted free agent. QB Shaun Hill has worked his way up from an undrafted free agent signee of the Minnesota Vikings in 2002 to having a 10-6 record as a starter.

Hill started two games in 2007 before becoming the regular starter midway through the 2008 sea-son. In his 16 career starts, Hill has led the 49ers to a 10-6 record. His .625 winning pct. ranks 2nd in 49ers franchise history (min. 10 starts) and it is the fourth-highest winning pct. among all undrafted QBs since 1970.

Symmetry in motionIn a recent study done by the Wall Street Journal, a symmetrical face

is a trait that has a strong correlation to a person’s perceived attractiveness. The average person’s face is somewhere around 90 pct. symmetrical, but for a startng QB in the NFL, it is about 96 pct. symmetrical. Starting QB Shaun Hill ranks 7th in the NFL with a 99.35 pct. symmetrical face.

“It isn’t someone’s opinion,” said Hill. “It’s scientific proof that I’m handsome. So it’s really a great deal. So when [QB] Alex [Smith] or [T] Joe

Staley tries to put me down to make themselves feel bet-ter, I have scientific evidence to throw back at them.” The study concluded that scientific research over-whelmingly points to facial symmetry as an indicator of success. Studies show infants with more symmetrical faces are given more attention. Sym-metrical workers also tend to earn more.

COFFEE GAME-BY-GAMEGlen Coffee is a solid addition to the 49ers running back corps. Coffee had stepped into his role as the bell cow of the running game while RB Frank Gore was out with an ankle injury. In his 2nd game as a starter, he continued to add to the 49ers ground game by scoring his 1st career TD vs. Atl. (10/11). A tough, hard-nosed runner with excellent field vision, Coffee looks to be utilized as a complement to Gore throughout this season.

jolt of coffee San Francisco 49ers RB Glen Coffee, the team’s 3rd-round pick in the 2009 NFL Draft, was one of the most impressive rookies during the preseason. “I’m very excited about what I’ve seen from him,” said head coach Mike Singletary. “Glen’s a tough runner, and he’s going to be a great ad-dition to our football team. He really adds a lot to what we’re trying to do.” “He’s doing a great job,” said Gore. “He runs strong and finds the holes. Glen is going to be a great player.” The rookie from Alabama has relied on advice from Gore, “I take the game seriously,” said Coffee. “Frank and I have similar ap-proaches, and I try to learn from him. He knows what it takes.” Coffee has made his presence felt early this season, carrying the rush-ing load while Gore missed two games with an ankle injury. On the season, Coffee has carried the ball 74 times for 194 yds. and aTD.

49ers offensive coordinator Jimmy Raye likes what he sees from the rookie and is excited about what he will bring to the team.

“He has been really exceptional for a rookie running back,” says Raye. “He’s way ahead of the curve in terms of pass protection, and that’s unusual for a college back. He’s a rugged player, he’s mentally tough and he plays physical football. He has vision and the ability to get fast in the hole. He has a bright future.”

The heart of the 49ers offense for the past 4 seasons, Pro Bowl RB Frank Gore has established himself as one of the premier running backs in the NFL. Known as a breakaway threat and tough inside runner, the former 3rd-round pick became the 1st 49ers player in team history to record 3 consecutive 1,000-yd. rushing seasons. During the offseason, Gore went through a rigorous training regime with other NFL players that are also former University of Miami alum to prepare for the 2009 season. Among many others, Gore has garnered praise from 1st year offensive coordinator Jimmy Raye, who has noticed Gore’s gains from his workouts and expects an outstanding season from the 5th-year veteran.

�� Left the game at. Min. (9/27) early in the 1st qtr. with an ankle injury.

�� Registered his 4th rushing TD of the season on a 64-yd. TD run in the 1st qtr.. It marked the 26th rushing TD of his career and his 3rd rushing TD of the season over 60 yds.. Gore, along with Jacksonville RB Maurice Jone-Drew, became the 1st players to record 3 rushing TDs over 60 yds. in one season since 2003 (RB Ahman Green - 98t, 65t and 60t; RB Jamal Lewis – 82t, 72t and 63t). Gore is the 1st 49er to have three rushing TDs over 60 yds. in a season since 1998 (RB Garrison Hearst – 96t, 71t, 70t).

GOLDMINE:��Frank’s determination to run over defenders comes from his tough

upbringing in Miami, FL. Some considered his football career over when he suffered two serious knee injuries at the University of Miami. He relied, however, on his mother Liz’s strength to help him through. “She had been on dialysis (awaiting a kidney transplant) since I was in the 11th grade and raised three kids as a single woman,” Frank said. Unfortunately, Liz lost her battle with kidney disease before the 49ers 2nd game of the 2007 season against the St. Louis Rams. Playing with a heavy heart, Frank responded by rushing for 81 yds. and 2 TDs, including a 43-yd. score on a 4th-and-1 carry, helping the 49ers to a 17-16 victory.

�� Frank has spent the past summers running hills in Miami with a truck tire tethered to his torso as part of his training regimen.

eye of the tiger

Over the years, RB Frank Gore has evolved into a team leader who does so by example. With a phenomenal work ethic and tremendous attitude, Gore has hit the ground running and is anxious to start playing games. “I feel fast, strong, ready,” Gore said. “Every time I’m on the field, I envi-sion being in the game. I feel great. I feel the more reps, the more comfort-able I will be. I’m ready to play ball.” Gore’s efforts and ability have been noticed by everyone, especially of-fensive coordinator Jimmy Raye. “He has been one of the best workers in preparation since we started this training camp,” Raye said. “I think he has the eye of the tiger this year. From what I’ve seen, his work ethic has been outstanding and he’s looking forward to a good year, and we are looking forward to him having one.” Raye is entering his 33rd season in the NFL and he has coached some of the greatest running backs of all-time, including Hall of Famers Marcus Allen and Eric Dickerson. As he watches Gore on the field, Raye knows that he has all the tools to be one of the best to ever play the game. “From what I’ve seen of him, he has all the criteria, all the prerequisites, to be a top guy,” Raye said of Gore. “He has it talent-wise and he has the passion to be a top-level guy, be in the upper echelon of backs that have played in the NFL.”

Now in his 5th season with San Francisco, Gore has already moved into 5th place on the 49ers all-time rushing list.

rushing to the top

RB Frank Gore was named NFC Offensive Player of the Week for his Week 2 performance vs. Sea. (9/20). Gore paced the 49ers attack, rushing for 207 yds. on 16 car. (12.9 avg.) and 2 TDs in a 23-10 win. He began his day by setting a new career-long with a 79-yd. TD run in the 1st qtr.. On the 1st play of the 3rd qtr., he broke his career-long record again with an 80-yd. TD run. With his 2nd TD run of the day, Gore joined RB Barry Sanders (at Tampa Bay (80, 82) on 10/12/97) as the only players in NFL history to register two TD runs of 75-plus yds. in the same game. “It is a great honor to be mentioned alongside Barry Sanders, but I have to give up props to my offensive line,” said Gore. “They did a great job. And the receivers, they did a great job downfield. As an offense, we just have to keep moving forward from this game here.” Gore’s average of 12.9 yds. per carry is the 2nd-best single-game av-erage in franchise history (min. 10 carries). It was also the 3rd-highest single-game average (min. 15 carries) in the NFL since 1970. Gore’s career-day didn’t stop with the long runs. He also set a new

career-high with 246 yds. from scrimmage (207 rushing, 39 receiving) and it marked the 1st time in his career he registered 4 TDs over a two-game span. “Obviously, it was a great day,” said head coach Mike Singletary. “It re-ally was. It’s a tribute to our offensive line. It’s a tribute to Frank seeing the holes and hitting them. It’s a tribute to our outside guys and our receivers doing a great job blocking. Everybody is doing their job in order for those things to happen. So, that’s all good.”

player of the week Since he busted onto the scene in 2006, when he led the NFC with 1,695 yds. rushing, RB Frank Gore has been a work-horse for the 49ers offense. He has accounted for 5,606 yds., or 33.6% of the 49ers total of-fense, since 2006. Gore has av-eraged 1,709 yds. from scrim-mage a year during the same time frame, ranking 4th in the NFL behind LaDainian Tomlin-son, Brian Westbrook and Ste-ven Jackson. Gore also ranks 4th in the NFL with 4,197 rushing yds. since 2006.

Last season, Gore became the 1st player in franchise history to rush for more than 1,000 yds. in three consecutive seasons. He led the NFC and ranked 3rd in the NFL with 1,695 rushing yds. in 2006, ranked 5th in the NFC with 1,102 rushing yds. in 2007 and 8th in the NFC with 1,036, despite missing two games with an ankle injury. Gore is one of 4 players who have rushed for over 1,000 from 2006-2008.

When sizing up Gore, it’s not all about the stats. He has put in hard work to become an all-around back, and that includes excelling in pass protection. Over the course of his career, Gore has been seen time and time again holding his own against larger defenders in pass protection. Gore, at 5-9 and 217 pounds, takes pride in how he approaches blocking. “It’s not about size. It’s about what you’ve got in your chest. I’ve got a lot of heart.” Gore’s passion goes a long way. If he’s not practicing or conditioning, he’s putting in extra hours of film study. He credits his University of Miami running backs coach, Don Soldinger, for stressing the importance of blocking. “Anybody can run the ball,” Gore said. “If you want to separate yourself, you’ve got to do all three phases. That’s why you see all the Miami backs around the league - Clinton Portis, Edgerrin James, Willis McGahee - they all block.”

NORRIS GAME-BY-GAMEA tough, hard-nosed fullback, Moran Norris rejoined the 49ers after spending the 2008 season as a member of the Detroit Lions. Norris, who is utilized as both a blocker and receiver, was the 49ers starting fullback from 2006-07 and helped RB Frank Gore to a Pro Bowl season with an NFC-leading and team-record 1,695 yds. in 2006. He is close friends with Gore off the field, traveling with the running back to Hawaii when Gore received his Pro Bowl bid.

Norris can be found working within his community. In 2005, Moran founded the Moran Norris Foundation, seeking to help Hou.-area students become champions in athletics, character and education. In San Francisco, Moran “adopted” a group of students in the Brother2Brother/Sister2Sister Mentoring Program as part of his Foundation’s initiatives. Moran has hosted the youngsters at 49ers games, provided them with financial support and taught them the importance of life skills, education, goal setting, hard work and good character. “When I was growing up I remember this football player came, and he used to come and just talk to the kids, and I still remember that day. I felt if I ever had a chance to go back like that, I would do the same thing.”

ROBINSON GAME-BY-GAMEMichael Robinson has provided the 49ers with a consistent weapon on offense and special teams since being drafted in the fourth round of the 2006 NFL Draft. Robinson saw action at running back, fullback, QB and kickoff returner in 2008, as he was named a Pro Bowl alternate on special teams. A special teams ace, he has totaled 74 special teams tackles in four seasons, which includes a career-high 27 stops in 2007. Robinson made the transition from college QB to a tough, powerful rusher upon joining the 49ers.

2009 HIGHLIGHTS:�� 2nd on the team with 15 special teams tackles.�� Registered his 1st kickoff return of the season vs. StL (10/4). �� Set a career-high with 99 yd. kickoff return yds. at Ind. (11/1) breaking his previous high of 94 yds. the previous week at. Hou (10/25).

GOLDMINE:��One of the most athletic and versatile players on the team, Michael is

equally adept off the playing field. At Penn State, Michael starred at QB and earned Academic All-Big Ten honors three times. More than a football player, Michael gained reporting experience covering Penn State Basketball and on CSTV’s Penn State Primetime programs. Robinson has spent time in the television studio in the Bay Area, meeting reporters and gaining experience behind the camera, and also hosts a segment called “The Robinson Report” on 49ers.com. On April 2, 2008, ESPN The Magazine invited Michael to be an on-camera reporter at Baylor vs. Texas women’s softball game on ESPNU.

WIDE RECEIVER

Ht: 6-1 Wt: 208 Born: 2/22/80

College: Notre Dame


(ARR-nez)

BATTLE GAME-BY-GAMEAs one of the longest tenured 49ers on the team, Arnaz Battle has developed into an all-around threat as a receiver, blocker and returner. The former college QB progressed from a special teams standout during his 1st two years in San Francisco into one of the team’s most reliable offensive players. Battle served as the primary punt and kickoff returner for the 49ers in 2004, and provides depth at both positions. A sixth-round selection in 2003, Battle has recorded 178 receptions for 2,150 yds. and 11 TDs in 79 career games.

GOLDMINE:��Arnaz’s tough, hard-nosed play is described by some as competing

with a chip on his shoulder. Arnaz however would express it as playing with an angel instead of a chip in remembrance of his younger brother, Brandon. When Arnaz was 9 years old, Brandon passed away in a tragic drowning accident. That memory is one from which Arnaz draws strength and inspiration. On his upper left arm appears a tattoo of his late brother’s face that runs from the tip of his shoulder to his bicep.

��A QB for most of his collegiate career at Notre Dame, Arnaz transitioned to wide receiver as a rookie with the 49ers. “Being an option QB, I initially didn’t have the stride it took to be a receiver and open in and out of my routes. I was kind of choppy in my steps. Just putting all of that together, being in shape and getting my muscles stretched so I could extend my running form was probably the most challenging part of making the switch. I think as far as grasping the playbook and the terminology, I found that I was able to digest it much easier and faster having played the QB position.”

��Arnaz learned his moves early on. His father played tight end at North Texas and with the St. Louis Rams for two seasons. By the time Battle became interested in football, his dad was mostly on the road as a truck driver, but when he came home, father and son played catch out in the yd..

CRABTREE GAME-BY-GAMEMichael Crabtree, who the 49ers selected with the 10th overall pick in the 2009 NFL Draft, joins the team after several productive seasons and numerous accolades at the collegiate level. Possessing a rare combination of size and speed for a wide receiver, Crabtree looks to contribute his talents to an already solid 49ers receiving corps for the 2009 season.

In his highly-anticipated debut, rookie WR Michael Crabtree stepped on the field in Hou. ready to make an impact. When the 49ers offense took the field, Crabtree was one of the starting receivers, becoming the 1st 49ers rookie wide receiver to start in his debut since undrafted rookie free agent WR Renaldo Nehemiah started vs. L.A. Raiders (9/12/82).

Crabtree registered 5 receptions for 56 yds. in his 1st career game. His 5 receptions rank tied for 3rd for the most receptions by a drafted rookie receiver in their 1st game in 49ers history. His 56 receiving yds. are the 5th most by a drafted rookie receiver in their debut.

QB Shaun Hill and QB Alex Smith knew they could lean on Crabtree in crucial situations. Of Crabtree’s five receptions, 4 of them resulted in 1st downs, including three on 3rd down.

“You know, I think he played really well for a young guy only being in a couple weeks, going out there and playing like that,” said Smith. “He played really well, competed against a lot of man coverage and played really well.”

Head coach Mike Singletary was also impressed by Crabtree’s per-formance.

“Do I think he did a great job today? Absolutely,” said Singletary. “He did a heck of a job. The bottom line is when he had the chance to make plays he made them. That’s good. You’re talking about a guy that’s been working his tail off and hasn’t been at camp and he came in today and it seemed like he had been here a while.”

Jason has sponsored a dinner for the homeless and a park refurbishing at Hunters Point. This past Christmas, he arranged for his own holiday giving event.

CAREER HIGHS

Coming into his own

When you initially look at his statistics, WR Josh Morgan’s stat line doesn’t jump off the page at you. But, when you take a look at his size, strength and potential (6-1, 219 lbs), that is what offensive coordinator Jimmy Raye is excited about.

“For a big-bodied guy his size, for a big receiver, he has excellent explosion,” Raye said. “He’s an explosive guy and a great leaper. His cir-cumference range, because of his arms, is very good. He can get to some balls with extension that some guys can’t.”

Morgan is not only helping the offense in the receiving game, he is also blocking for the running game, both on the line and down field. On both of RB Frank Gore’s record-setting runs vs. Sea. (9/20), Morgan was there with a block down field that helped spring Gore.

Morgan registered his 1st TD reception of the season vs. St. Louis (10/4/09) on a 24-yd. strike from QB Shaun Hill in the 4th qtr.. Morgan leads all receivers and ranks 3rd on the team with 18 receptions for 267 yds. and one TD.

“He’s such a hard worker and a good kid — a good young man,” said QB Shaun Hill. “I can’t say enough good things about him. Usually, whenever a receiver has a good work ethic, a good attitude and all that talent, some-thing really good is going to happen for him.”

Morgan knows that it is going to take hard work and determination to be the receiver he knows he can be.

”I want everybody to say, ‘Josh Morgan is our best receiver,’” Morgan said. “I feel I can make a difference and be a big playmaker on this team, and that keeps me hungry. The sky’s the limit, and I’m not going to be satis-fied until I reach my potential.”

DAVIS GAME-BY-GAME As the season rolls on, Vernon Davis not only continues to showcase his athletic abilities through 49ers offensive coordinator Jimmy Raye schemes, but he is also doing it on a consistent basis. Davis has already set a new career-high with 7 TD receptions this season. He has also set single game highs this season in receiving yds. (96) and TDs (3). Davis has also tied his career-high with 7 receptions on two seperate occasions this season. He was named a team captain for the 2009 season for his hard work and dedication entering his 4th year in the NFL. One of the most versatile tight ends in the NFL, Davis provides tremendous size, strength and speed to the 49ers offense. A 49ers 1st-round pick in 2006, Davis was named a Pro Bowl alternate following the 2008 season after playing an instrumental role as both a receiver and blocker.

TIGHT END CONTINUED ...

career year

Now in his fourth season, TE Vernon Davis has come into his own as one of the premier tight ends in the NFL. Through the 1st seven games of the 2009 season, Davis has already eclipsed his career-high in TD receptions (7), and is on pace to set new career-highs in both receptions and receiving yds.. He is also on his way to setting the single-season franchise records for both receiving yds. (825 by TE Eric Johnson - 2004) and TDs (9 by TE Ted Kwalick - 1972 and TE Brent Jones - 1994)by a 49ers tight end.

In Week 7 at Hou., Davis had one of the best games of his young career. He led the team and tied a career-high with 7 receptions for 93 yds. and a career-high and franchise-record 3 TD receptions. Davis became the 1st tight end in 49ers history to register three TD receptions in a game. He also became the 1st tight end in the NFL to notch three TD receptions since Atl. TE Alge Crumpler had three TD receptions vs. Pittsburgh (10/22/06). Davis also tied Patriots WR Randy Moss as the only players in the NFL to have three TD receptions in a game this season.

On the season, Davis has registered 32 receptions for 375 yds. and

an NFL leading 7 TD receptions. Among NFL tight ends, Davis ranks 8th in receptions and 8th in receiving yds..

Although Davis is accomplishing numerous individual accomplish-ments, the most important goal for him is winning.

“It was a good feeling having three TDs, but it wasn’t as exciting as it could have been,” said Davis. “If we would have won, it would have been a lot more exciting. It’s a good thing that I am producing and putting up num-bers, but I’m more concerned about winning. I’m not really worried about all of the individual goals at the moment, I just want to win. That’s all i want to do. That’s the most important thing on my mind right now, helping my team win games. All of these individual accomplishments, they are just things that happening to me right now, but i know that I need to play at my best because that’s when I can help the team out the most.”

captain cruNch time

When head coach Mike Singletary named him a team captain for the 2009 season, TE Vernon Davis knew that he had to step up as a leader on the team.

“I know he told me last year that that’s something he wanted to strive to be,” said Singletary. “I felt that this year, just simply by what many of his teammates have said, comments the coaches have made about the maturity level that Vernon has shown and the professionalism and the work ethic and all of those things, I’m very excited about him.”

“This is a great honor given to me by coach,” Davis said. “Being named a team captain just encourages me to play better, excel even higher in the upcoming games. I look forward to leading by example and most impor-tantly, helping the team win [during] the 2009 season.”

Through the 1st seven games of the season, Davis has come up time and time again in big situations when the game is on the line. In Week 1 at Arizona, Davis registered 4 receptions for 35 yds. on the game-winning 15 play drive.

At Minnesota, QB Shaun Hill connected with Davis on a 20-yd., 4th qtr. TD strike that gave the 49ers a 24-20 lead with just over 8:00 to play.

In Week 7 at Hou., Davis was QB Alex Smith’s favorite target in the 2nd half, as the two hooked up for three TD passes, including 2 in the 4th qtr..

Davis has become one of the most sure-handed receivers in crunch time this season, ranking tied for 3rd in the NFL with 13 4th qtr. receptions and tied for 1st in the NFL with 3 4th qtr. TDs. He also ranks tied for 8th in the NFL with 170 receiving yds. in the 4th qtr..

“I thought Vernon was a big part of some of the success that we had in throwing the ball, and Shaun Hill and Alex Smith connecting with him,” said Singletary. “He has good hands. I saw him during the offseason catching balls in every situation, in every position.”

took determination, hard work and a bit of luck for him to beat the odds. Barry never seriously thought about going pro until after his junior season at the University of Utah. With the support of family and friends, he trained hard and had a productive senior year as he was selected to the Hula Bowl All Star game. Everything was looking promising for the ambitious lineman, but a couple days before the honorary game, Sims blew out his knee in practice. He ended up spending the next year in Salt Lake City rehabbing his injury. Once the rehabilitation concluded, Barry was eager to sign with a team. However, many teams were skeptical about whether his knee would hold up. As time was running out, an opportunity arose in NFL Europe, and Barry was selected in the 17th round of the 1999 NFLE Draft by the Scottish Claymores. He shined overseas and was signed as a free agent by the Raiders in July of 1999. After just four regular season games with the Raiders, he made his 1st NFL start, and has since gone on to make over 100 more. In 2004, Barry was inducted into the Scottish Claymores Football Hall of Fame.


As the 2nd of two 3rd-round selections in 2005, Adam Snyder has shown immense versatility by making starts at every position along the line with the exception of center (21 at LT, 7 at LG, 11 at RT, and 4 at RG).

game

1Head coach Mike Singletary delivered a very simple message to his team in advance of their season opening matchup against the defend-ing NFC Champion Arizona Cardinals … “Believe.” His players did just that as they battled through a tremendously physical game highlighted by impressive defensive efforts from both squads. After being stymied on offense for more than 3 quarters, the 49ers embarked on a 15-play, 80-yd. drive that consumed 7:26 of clock time en route to a 3-yd., go-ahead TD pass from QB Shaun Hill to RB Frank Gore. On the drive, offen-sive coordinator Jimmy Raye scrapped the run game that he had dialed up all afternoon and left the contest to Hill’s right arm. The QB responded going 9 of 13 for 72 yds. and the TD to Gore. On the series, Hill utilized his playmakers including TE Vernon Davis who hauled in 4 passes for 35 yds. The 49ers opened the scoring in the 1st quarter after All-Pro LB Patrick Willis launched himself high in the air to intercept a QB Kurt Warner pass to set his team up at the ARZ 36. Six plays later K Joe Nedney connected on a 37-yd. FG. Nedney later connected on a 50-yd. FG to give the Nin-ers a 6-0 lead entering the 2nd stanza. The Cardinals finally got some offense going in the 2nd quarter as K Neil Rackers drilled a 44-yd. FG on their first possession. As the 49ers run game continued to struggle, Hill aired the ball out to All-Pro WR Isaac Bruce on a 50-yd. bomb set-ting the offense up at the 6-yd. line. With a tired Arizona defense, the 49ers called on Gore the very next play. He hit pay dirt plunging through a massive hole into the endzone. With the momentum in their favor, CB Nate Clements capitalized on another Warner mistake, and intense pressure from his defensive front, as he hauled in his first interception of the year. Clements’ effort, and those of his defensive backfield mates, limited one of the game’s best WR tandems in Larry Fitzgerald and An-quan Boldin, to a combined 8 recepts. for 90 yds. and 1 TD. The men up front turned in an impressive performance as well, logging 3 sacks and 22 QB hits. The 49ers were unable to capitalize on Clements’ pick, as Hill was sacked and forced to fumble on the next series. The Cardinals jumped on the opportunity, posting another Rackers’ FG this time from 29 yds. San Francisco left the field at the half with a 13-6 lead. The Cardinals carried momentum into the 3rd quarter, and on their 2nd pos-session, Warner led his team on 69-yd. scoring drive that resulted in a 5-yd. TD pass to Fitzgerald, knotting the score at 13. After a 49ers 3-n-out, Arizona again moved the ball to post points, a 43-yd. FG by Rackers just seconds into the 4th quarter, for the Cardinals final points of the game. The Niners would then embark on their game-winning drive and back it up with a defensive performance that paralyzed the Cardinals.

Notes: Hill became the 2nd undrafted quarterback to start the regu-lar season opener in 49ers history, joining QB Jeff Garcia (2000-03). Hill also set a new career-long with his 50-yd. completion to Bruce … Willis recorded his 2nd-career INT, while Clements reg-istered his 30th … Nedney now has 7 career FGs of 50-or-more yds. to rank first in franchise history … Gore had a rushing and re-ceiving TD in the same game for the first time in his career.

2The San Francisco 49ers took a step forward in the NFC West race as they defeated the Seattle Seahawks in their home opener, 23-10, be-coming the only team in the division to start 2009 with a 2-0 record. The 49ers ground attack exploded on the Seahawks defense, registering 256 yards rushing, of which 207 came on the back of RB Frank Gore as he posted the 2nd-highest outing of his career. For the 2nd-straight week the Niners defense shut down their opponent, limiting them to just 283 yards of total offense and a 29% conversion rate on 3rd downs. Following a 3-n-out start by the Seahawks, the 49ers embarked on a 55-yd. drive to start the game that culminated in a 37-yd. Joe Nedney FG, for the game’s first points. The 49ers defenders quickly retrieved the ball from Seattle, forcing a punt that set the Niners up at their own 21 yard line. The very next play Gore blasted through the offensive line and dashed 79 yds. for a score, extending the lead to 10-0. Seattle posted its first points of the game early in the 2nd qtr. as QB Matt Hasselbeck directed the team to the SF18, where K Olindo Mare booted a 36-yd. FG. After trading possessions, the 49ers were provided tremendous field position by a Seattle punt that was downed at the SEA43. San Francisco was unable to register a first down and settled for another Nedney FG, this time from 42 yds. With less than 3 minutes remaining, Hasselbeck impressively directed the Seahawks to the SF1, where he was knocked out of the game by a LB Patrick Willis tackle as he attempted to dive into the endzone for a score. On the next play, backup QB Seneca Wal-lace connected with RB Julius Jones for a 1-yd. TD pass, sending the game into the half with San Francisco leading 13-10. Although the Se-ahawks went into the locker room with the momentum, Gore quickly stole it back on the first play from scrimmage of the 2nd half. Unsatis-fied with a 79-yd. TD scamper in the first stanza, Gore galloped 80 yds. to paydirt through a massive hole created by his offensive line. The two teams went scoreless for the remainder of the 3rd, before Nedney connected from 39 yds. out on the 49ers first possession of the 4th quarter to cap a 16-play, 67-yd. drive for the final points of the day.

Notes: Gore (79, 80) became the only other player in NFL history other than Barry Sanders (80 & 82 at TB, 10/12/97) to register 2 TDs runs of 75-yds.-or-more in the same game. His 12.9 yds./carry avg. is 2nd in franchise history (min. 10 carries) and was the 3rd-highest single-game avg. (min. 15 carries) in the NFL, since 1970. His 80-yd. TD is the longest of his career while the 79 yarder is the 2nd-lon-gest. Set a career-high with 246 yds. from scrimmage … DT Justin Smith started his 125th consecutive game, the longest active streak for defensive linemen … C Eric Heitmann started his 100th career game. CB/KR/PR Allen Rossum became the 7th player in NFL histo-ry to amass 300 career punt returns. S Dashon Goldson recorded his first career interception in the third quarter off of QB Seneca Wallace.

game

3The 49ers competed like warriors as they traveled to Minnesota for a battle of undefeated NFC foes, only to fall to the Hall of Fame arm of Vikings QB Brett Favre in the waning seconds of the game. With a four-point lead, San Francisco punted into Minnesota’s endzone, setting up the Vikings at their own 20 yard-line with 1:29 left to play. Just 10 plays later, Favre would fire a 32-yd. TD strike to WR Greg Lewis, who was able to tap both feet in bounds as he fell out of the back of the end-zone. After the game began with the two teams combining for 3-straight 3-n-outs, the Vikings struck first as Favre connected with WR Sidney Rice from 30 yds. out. The 49ers continued to struggle in the 1st period, posting their 3rd and 4th 3-play drives. After Minnesota extended their early lead to 10 points on a 40-yd. Ryan Longwell FG, Niners QB Shaun Hill directed the team to its first score of the afternoon with a 7-play, 57-yd. drive that culminated in a 5-yd. TD pass to TE Vernon Davis in the back corner of the endzone. Despite forcing a Minnesota 3-n-out on the following possession, the 49ers gave the ball back, as Hill was inter-cepted by Cedric Griffin on a long pass intended for TE Delanie Walker. The Vikings capitalized on the mistake with another Longwell FG, this time from 52 yds. The Niners had no answer for the score on the ensu-ing series. With momentum in their favor, Minnesota drove to the SF26, where Longwell set up for a 44-yd. FG attempt. San Francisco settled down the home crowd with one tremendous play, as DT Ray McDonald busted through the left side of the Vikings line and blocked the attempt. A favorable bounce landed the ball in CB Nate Clements hands, who raced 59 yds. for a TD as time expired in the first half, to give the 49ers an improbable 14-13 lead. Just as the game began with the team’s trading 3-n-outs, so did the 2nd half. On the Vikings 2nd possession, the 49ers again stole the ball, as CB Shawntae Spencer hauled in a deflected Favre pass. Capitalizing on the theft, K Joe Nedney connect-ed from 30 yds. The 49ers elation was short-lived. For on the ensuing kickoff, rookie returner Percy Harvin exhibited his first round talent with 101-yd. scamper that gave the Vikings a 20-17 lead. Two possessions later, the Niners Hill led his offense on an 80-yd. scoring drive that re-sulted in a 20-yd. TD pass he threaded through multiple defenders into the hands of Davis for his 2nd score of the game. San Francisco’s lead appeared to be safe as the Vikings stalled on their next two possessions, but the Niners offense could not register a first down on their final pos-session and were forced to give the ball back to Favre one last time.

Note: The 49ers defense limited All-Pro RB Adrian Peterson to just 85 yds. (19 carries), his lowest total in 5 regular season games and the first game of the season he did not post a TD … McDonald’s blocked FG marked the 2nd of his career and the 2nd blocked field goal return for a touchdown for Clements … Davis’ 2-TD performance was the first multi-TD game of his career. He also set a career high with 96 receiving yds. and tied a career-high with 7 receptions … Nedney became the 42nd player in NFL history to reach the 1,000-point plateau, with 1,004 career points … CB Shawntae Spencer recorded his 7th career INT.

4In a game best described as a tale of two halves, the San Francisco 49ers flipped the switch in the locker room at half time to shutout the visiting St. Louis Rams, 35-0, en route to a 3-0 start in the NFC West. As the offense struggled early, the special teams and defensive units lit up the scoreboard. Both defenses held strong for the first 25 min-utes of play, until an unlikely unit registered the first points of the day. With the Niners offense stalling at their own 43, their punt team took the field and P Andy Lee then kicked away to the Rams. But, as luck would have it, the ball ricocheted off the leg of Rams DB Quincy Butler and into the endzone, where 49ers LB Scott McKillop pounced for the first TD of his young career. As the offenses continued to struggle for the remainder of the half, San Francisco left the field with a 7-0 lead. After trading punts to start the 2nd half, the Niners took over with the ball on the SL 48. Seven plays later QB Shaun Hill connected from 13 yds. out with his new favorite target, TE Vernon Davis, for the first of-fensive points of the game. With two phases of the game having reg-istered scores, the 49ers defense desperately wanted to join the party. One minute and 28 seconds later, Pro Bowler Patrick Willis exhibited why many see him as the premier LB in the game today, as he baited Rams QB Kyle Boller into an INT which he then returned 23 yards for the 2nd TD of his career. Willis also added a career-high 2.5 sacks on the day. As the game progressed, the 49ers defense continued its stingy performance that held the Rams to just 177 yds. of offense and 9 first downs all day. The Niners began the final period with the ball on the SL 29. Shaun Hill followed up a 5-yd. run by RB Glen Coffee with a 24-yd. strike to Josh Morgan between two defenders, to up the lead to 28-0. San Francisco put the nail in the Rams coffin 14 seconds later, as DT Ray McDonald scooped up a Boller fumble on the Rams ensuing possession and trotted 11 yds. into the endzone for the defender’s first NFL points.

Note: The last time the team started 3-0 in the division was in 2002 … The shutout marked the 49ers first since 1/6/02 at NO, 38-0, and the first home shut out since 12/16/01 vs. Mia., 21-0 … It was the first time the 49ers scored 3 non-offensive TDs in a game since 12/11/66 vs. Chi. … The 35-point margin of victory was the 49ers largest since 12/7/03 vs. Arz. (50-14, a 36-point differential) … It was the first time the 49ers posted a TD on special teams, offense and defense in the same game since 11/10/97, a 24-12 win at Philadelphia … The last time the 49ers scored 2 defensive TDs in the same game was 10/2/05 vs. Arz. (at Mexico City) … Willis became the only 49er since the sack became an official statistic in 1982 to post 2.5-or-more sacks and an INT return for a TD in a single game, the 3rd player in the NFL to do so … QB Shaun Hill, WR Jason Hill and LB Takeo Spikes all donned pink cleats in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness. Numerous players also sported pink gloves and wristbands.

5The San Francisco 49ers encountered their first big stumbling block of the season as they were handled by the visiting Atlanta Falcons, 45-10. While Atlanta produced 477 yds. of offense, the 49ers could muster just 279 yds. of their own and uncharacteristically lost the turnover battle 3-2. The visitors got on the board quickly with a 7-yd. TD run by RB Michael Turner, followed less than five minutes later by a 31-yd. TD strike from QB Matt Ryan to WR Roddy White. The 49ers battled back late in the 1st qtr. as QB Shaun Hill completed a 61-yd. pass to WR Josh Morgan, setting up a 2-yd. TD scamper by RB Glen Coffee. After stop-ping the Falcons on their next possession, the 49ers drove 41-yds. and K Joe Nedney drilled a 39-yd. FG. Sadly, those three points would be San Francisco’s last of the day. Atlanta rounded out the first half with a 90-yd. TD pass from Ryan to White and two Turner scoring dives, the 1st from 3 yds. out and the 2nd from 1. The Niners halftime deficit was 25, as the Falcons led, 35-10. Despite the improved play of their defense, San Francisco’s offense continued to struggle in the second half and fin-ished the day with seven 3-and-outs. The Falcons controlled the clock in the second half, holding the ball for more than 19 minutes, and posted another 10 points. In the 3rd qtr., the Niners saw a positive moment turn into a negative one as CB Dre’ Bly interecepted a Ryan pass, only to have it stripped away by the Falcons White. Seven plays later, Atlanta added 3 more points on a 40-yd. FG by K Jason Elam. The final points of the game came after Ryan directed the Falcons on a 13-play, 73-yd. drive, capping it himself by plunging into the endzone from the 1 yardline.

Notes: LB Patrick Willis registered 2 forced fumbles in the third quarter marking the first time that a 49ers player registered 2 forced fumbles in a single game since DE Chris Doleman recorded 3 forced fumbles vs. Carolina (11/8/98) … Coffee scored the first points of his career.

6In a game of firsts, the San Francisco 49ers battled back from a 21-pt. first half deficit only to fall to the Houston Texans, 24-21, in the first meeting between the two teams in the state of Texas. The game opened with the first sighting of 49ers 2009 1st round draft pick WR Michael Crabtree, who started the game in a 3-receiver set. In his first appear-ance in 28 regular season games, Alex Smith replaced starter Shaun Hill at QB in the second half and directed the 49ers offense to 21 pts. in the final two qtrs. The spark provided by Smith’s presence also ignited the defense’s performance, which held the Texans offense to 3 pts. and just 151 yds. in the 2nd half. After trading two possessions apiece to start the game, Houston struck first with an 8-play, 61-yd. drive that was capped by a 1-yd. TD run by RB Steve Slaton. After a San Fran 3-n-out, Houston took over at their own 22 yard line. Ten plays later the home team was forced to punt to WR Arnaz Battle. After Battle muffed the catch, Texans WR Andre Davis alertly hopped on the ball at the SF 10. Slaton then posted his 2nd TD of the game with a 9-yd. TD recep-tion from QB Matt Schaub, putting the visitors down 14-0. With Hill still at the controls of the 49ers offense, the team sputtered and was forced to hand the ball back to the Texans, who quickly posted their 3rd TD of the game, this time a 42-yd. pass from QB Matt Schaub to TE Owen Daniels. The 49ers were unable to answer as the half came to a close with Houston ahead, 21-0. San Francisco’s offense was the first to take the field in the second half, and to the surprise of those watching, #11 stepped into the huddle at QB. Smith would go on to complete his first three passes, including the team’s first score of the day, a 29-yd. TD to TE Vernon Davis. Those points would prove to be the only of the 3rd qtr. for either team. The 49ers began the 4th in the midst of a drive that would result in another Smith-to-Davis TD pass, this time from 14 yds. out. Up by just 7 pts., Houston answered with a 10-play, 53-yd. drive that resulted in a 50-yd. Kris Brown FG. The Smith-led Niners were not out of the game just yet, and with 3:49 remaining Davis hauled in his 3rd TD reception of the game on a 23-yd. play. Down by three, the 49ers defense forced the Texans to punt on the ensuing possession, al-lowing their offense to take over at their own 6 yard line. On 4th-n-10 at the SF 38, Smith fired a desperation pass in the direction of WR Isaac Bruce that was intercepted by Texans S Eugene Wilson to end the game.

Note: Davis became the first 49er TE ever to record 3 TD recepts. in one game. His 7 recepts. also tied a career-high … Smith tied a career-high with 3 TD passes, throwing his first since 10/28/07 vs. NO. In his first action since 11/12/07, at Sea., Smith was 15-22-206-3TDs-1INT in just one half of play (118.6 QB rat-ing) … WR Isaac Bruce made his 200th career start … WR Crabtree started his first game as a 49er and registered 5 recepts. for 56 yds.

7For the 3rd time in 2009, San Francisco lost a heartbreaker on the road following a valiant effort. This time the victory belonged to the Indianap-olis Colts who entered the game with a perfect 6-0 record, and led by an early-season MVP candidate at the helm, All-Pro QB Peyton Man-ning. Although Manning would throw for 347 yards on 49 attempts, the only passing TD the host team could muster came from the arm of an unlikely hurler. The 49ers defense gave fits to the Colts all day long as it deflected the advances of their offense on four red zone trips, dragged their seldom-sacked QB to the turf on three occasions and held their ground game to 62 yds. Even more encouraging than the play of the Niners defense was that of QB Alex Smith, who made his first start since 11/12/07 at Sea. He completed 11 of 19 passes for 121 yds. and a TD in the first half and led the team on two scoring drives. The first drive was extremely quick as RB Frank Gore squirted through the line on its second play and dashed 64 yds. for the score. The Colts had to wait until their 3rd possession before registering points, as Manning directed his team to the SF20, where they were forced to settle for a 38-yd. K Matt Stover FG. On the 49ers next possession, Smith fired a pass to rookie WR Michael Crabtree, who inadvertently tipped the ball into the hands of Colts S Bob Sanders. With the ball at the SF40, Indy could only ad-vance the ball 19 yds and again had to settle for a Stover FG, this time from 33-yds. out. The teams traded multiple possessions until the 49ers took over at their own 11 yd.-line with 1:44 left in the half. Smith was impressive as he completed 6 of 7 passes, including an 8-yd. TD to TE Vernon Davis. With :38 remaining in the first stanza, it appeared the 49ers would enter the locker room up 14-6,but an illegal celebration penalty after the Davis TD forced San Fran to kickoff from its own 15 yd.-line. The Colts began their drive from the IND39, and 4 plays later, Stover connected from 31 yds., setting the score at 14-9. Indianapolis started the 2nd half as they ended the first, with a 40-yd. Stover FG. The balance of the 3rd qtr. remained scoreless, but the Colts were driv-ing as the teams changed sides of the field. On the first play of the qtr., RB Joseph Addai took a Manning handoff to the left side, but pulled up and tossed a 22-yd. pass to WR Reggie Wayne in the back of the end-zone for the go-ahead score. Indianapolis led 18-14, following a failed two-point try. The 49ers offense could not find the magic they had in the first half and the home team chewed up the clock to seal the game.

Note: Gore became the first player to record 3 rushing TDs over 60 yds. in a season since 2003 (RB Ahman Green - 98t, 65t and 60t; RB Jamal Lewis – 82t, 72t and 63t). Gore is the first 49er to have three rushing touchdowns over 60 yards in a season since 1998 (RB Gar-rison Hearst – 96t, 71t, 70t) … NT Aubrayo Franklin sacked Manning in the second quarter, registering the first sack posted on the QB in 178 pass attempts. Along with DTs Isaac Sopoaga and Ray McDonald, the D-line posted 3 sacks, one more than had been registered on Man-ning in the Colts first 6 games … The 49ers defense also held Man-ning without a touchdown pass for the first time since 11/30/08 at Cle.

Purdy: 49ers' Jed York tops list of Bay Area sports power players By Mark Purdy, San Jose Mercury News

Jed York is the honcho of all honchos in Northern California sports. Says who? Says us. He is rated No. 1 in our annual ranking of the Bay Area's 25 most powerful sports people. Yet on many days, as York will tell you, he does not feel powerful at all.

"It's funny," he said the other day. "Especially with family and friends, I feel less important than I did before."

The 49ers' president and owner has presided over several stunning moves for the franchise over the past 12 months. But York says he is fortunate to have a dedicated and relentless ego-suppressing posse.

This posse definitely includes his father and mother, who check in with him a few times per week by phone from their Ohio home. But principally it consists of several former college buddies from Notre Dame.

At age 28, York is not that far removed from those post-midnight bull sessions in South Bend where wicked insults flew in tight,accurate spirals.

Today, those same guys tease York mercilessly when he announces a decision — say, the one to exclusively pursue a new stadium inSanta Clara — and it provokes a reaction from a national figure such as Sen. Dianne Feinstein, who opposes the move.

"My friends will say, 'Are you kidding me?'" York said. "They'll say, 'We know who you really are. You're not the owner of a NFLteam, you're the guy who was in the dorm late at night talking about whatever.' They keep you honest. You can't have an inflatedopinion of yourself with them around."

That could also explain York's reaction when informed that he was the No. 1 name on this year's list.

"This isn't going to get my dad and mom mad at me, is it?" he asked in half-jest.

York's father and mother, John York and Denise DeBartolo York, are still listed as "co-chairman" in the 49ers' directory. Jed, however, is in control of the team joystick on a day-to-day basis. And over the past 12 months, he has used the joystick to makedramatic moves that will shape the franchise's future — and could literally alter the Bay Area's sports landscape.

So, yeah, that makes Jed York a pretty influential guy. Just ask Sen. Feinstein.

Each summer, we rank the Bay Area's power 25 in sports, not so much to create a strict pecking order but as a vehicle to explain how Northern California's sports machinery works. The list also shines a light on the people who grease the gears, some of whom areunfamiliar names to the general public.

As always, the rankings are totally subjective and arbitrary. They are done by a panel of Mercury News editors; any ties are broken by yours truly. There is only one exclusionary rule: No newspaper people can be included on the list, for conflict-of-interest reasons.

This year, Jed York is atop the list not just because he is in charge of the most popular Bay Area team in America's most popularsports league. York is there because of what he has accomplished since he was named team president in December — after unofficially performing those executive duties for at least a year.

York leans on General Manager Scot McCloughan in football decisions and relies on chief operating officer Andy Dolich in off-fieldmatters. But over the past 12 months, York supervised and signed off on the firing of former head coach Mike Nolan and the hiring of his replacement, Mike Singletary. York also steered the organization's negotiations with Santa Clara that resulted in the team signing a term sheet with the city regarding a new stadium.

Voters will give a thumbs-up or thumbs-down on the deal sometime in 2010. But to understand how difficult it is simply to reach this point, please consult the A's and Raiders, two local teams seeking new stadium deals and finding only frustration.

Of course, there are far more immediate football matters on York's plate. The 49ers' last winning season was in 2002. That is unacceptable to York, whose competitive zeal has been compared to that of his uncle, former 49ers owner Eddie DeBartolo Jr.

Jed York Feature

�Last week, after York watched a morning practice, he sat down for half an hour to talk about his management philosophy. The discussion occurred during a media mini-firestorm over Michael Crabtree, the team's No. 1 draft selection, who is holding out for a lucrative contract.

"I think it's real important to always see the big picture," York said, "rather than worry about every single detail of every single element. For example, right now, we've got a first-round pick who hasn't signed. Some guys would freak out about that. My feeling is, we have people who are in charge of that and they know what's going on, what they want to get accomplished. I trust them. And wecan't control what the player's people do. Instead of focusing on what you can't control, I try to focus on what you can control."

The answer was a typically diplomatic one for York. Because of his youth — although sooner or later, people need to stop obsessing about his age — there has been a tendency among 49ers fans to wait for "Kid York" to screw up and say something really, really,really stupid. It hasn't happened. Over the years, those same fans have hurled numerous invectives at John and Denise York. But give them credit for raising a son who handles himself coolly when the heat is turned up.

And the son is very clear about this: Seeing his team win five of its last seven games a year ago was nice, but not remotely worth a parade or major applause.

"The thing you have to do," York said, "is focus on always moving ahead, moving forward. My uncle was always very successful atthat. After the 49ers won their first Super Bowl (after the 1981 season), he could have been happy with that and not gone to the max to win more. But he was determined to keep the franchise up there, keep it moving forward. And that's why we are not just talking about 1981 today, but about all of the team's Super Bowls."

Still, on a certain level, York must be surprised at how much the 49ers' needle of progress has moved on his watch, on all fronts.Right?

"If I went out and beat our tight end, Vernon Davis, in the 40-yard dash, that would surprise me," York said. "But I have a lot of respect for the people in our building and all the work they do to get things accomplished. So I'm not surprised with what we've been able to do as a group."

OK, not surprised. Is he impressed?

"I think I'll be impressed when the stadium starts construction across the street," York said. "We've come far. But still not far enough."

His posse can make fun of him all they want. But after so many languid years of 49ers torpidity, he is at least moving the chains. That's how you use power.

Singletary's squad is making believers By Monte Poole, Contra Costa Times

Even now, as his team sits comfortably atop the NFC West, coach Mike Singletary and his 49ers would like you to believe they have won nothing.

It's the right approach even if, upon closer inspection, it's not entirely true.

They have achieved the first victory that must be obtained by any team with worthwhile aspirations. They have won a detectable measure of credibility.

Finishing the first quarter of the 2009 season with a 35-0 demolition of the young and tender St. Louis Rams on Sunday at Candlestick Park, the 49ers (3-1) already have done enough to start sharing their considerable self-belief with the faithful.

Gone is the artificial swagger of the Mike Nolan era, wherein the new coach inherited a team that went 2-14 in 2004 and immediately barked about winning the NFC West in 2005. He dared to put this palaver into print on a banner at team headquarters.

Depending on your perspective, you either laughed out loud or rolled your eyes or felt a flash of shame. The 49ers had just hired a coach who dreamed big, baseless dreams perfectly suited for ridicule.

The Niners finished 4-12 in '05 and they have been digging out of that silly hole ever since.

Well, they're out. They're 3-0 in the division, with a virtual two-game lead over second-place Arizona. Singletary is 8-5 as a head coach. Quarterback Shaun Hill is 10-4 as a starter, 7-0 at Candlestick.

In short, it's once again OK for the 49ers and their fans to dream big. Not Super Bowl big, but a 10-win season and an NFC West title are entirely conceivable.

"I think it's realistic," said tight end Vernon Davis, who in the second quarter caught his third touchdown pass in two weeks, a 13-yard strike from Hill. "It's very realistic."

If the 49ers go .500 the rest of the season, they finish 9-7, and that might be good enough to win the division. Glancing at theirschedule, only the Nov. 1 game at Indianapolis and the Dec. 20 trip to Philadelphia have the look of probable defeat.

Which means the other 10 games are in play, including home games against the reeling Titans (Nov. 8) and the woeful Lions (Dec.27).

How did the 49ers wander into this position? Mostly by promoting Singletary to head coach.

"Coach Sing has changed the culture," linebacker Takeo Spikes said. "And it's a daily thing, ongoing. It's constant.

"Winning the division has been realistic to us ever since Coach Sing stood up last year and said we're going to be a different football team."

Singletary explained at the time he was hired that he was going to do some unconventional things that would pay off in victories.From his well-publicized banishment of Davis during a game last season to his demanding training camp to his sermons about teamwork and family, Singletary's messages are resonating.

Never more than in Sunday's win, which was artistically negligent but a powerful testimony to the powers of the collective.

The defense, noticeably improved, generating pass-rush heat and containing runners, scored two touchdowns. The special teams, which have been mostly solid, scored a touchdown. The offense, which scored the other two touchdowns, continues to be hardly special but generally effective, which pretty much describes Hill.

Head Coach Mike Singletary Feature

�"It's a good sign that we can generate points somewhere else," Singletary said of the deficient (228 total yards) offense. "But at the same time it's just one of those things where you look at it and you say, 'OK, once our offense gets set, we're really going to make some strides.' We just have to keep working at that."

The 49ers won Sunday with their best player, running back Frank Gore, out of the lineup. They have won three of four with their first-round draft choice, wide receiver Michael Crabtree, out of his mind.

And, still, their self-belief seems stronger than it has been at any time since winning the NFC West in 2002 under Steve Mariucci.

"With wins comes confidence," Hill said. "We've put in more work than any team I've ever been a part of, so we knew coming into the season that we had that to fall back on, that we had paid the price."

There is plenty of paying to be done for this imperfect team, two rungs below elite. The thing the 49ers might have to fear most as they enter the second quarter of the season is getting too high on their own scent.

Then again, Singletary always will be there to remind them they stink.

Be Like Mike By Jim Trotter, SI.com

Practice was over, and now the 49ers gathered in a tight circle on the far field of their facility in Santa Clara, Calif., last Thursday, each raising one arm to form a human umbrella. After a brief silence, a voice rose from within the group and asked, "Am I my brother's keeper?"

In unison the players answered, Yes ... I ... am!

That the team-binding phrase has its roots in the Bible is appropriate. Some would consider the task facing Mike Singletary, in his first full season as coach, tantamount to turning water into wine. The Niners, one of the league's showcase franchises in the 1980s and '90s, haven't had a winning season since 2002. In three of the past six seasons they lost 11 or more games. Coaches have come and gone,draft picks have been squandered, and through it all the legacy of Walsh and Montana, of Rice and Young and Lott, of five SuperBowl championships in 14 seasons, has been tarnished.

By opening 2009 with consecutive defeats of NFC West favorites Arizona and Seattle, however, the 49ers are leading the division and walking with their heads high again.

"Are we a championship team right now? No, we're not," says middle linebacker Patrick Willis. "But can we be a championship team? I think so. I know so."

The man leading the charge is Singletary—or, as his players respectfully call him, Joe Clark, after the no-nonsense, baseball-bat-wielding inner-city high school principal on whom the 1989 movie Lean on Me was based. Just as Clark sought to change the culture of failure at Eastside High in Paterson, N.J., by getting rid of troublemakers and students who didn't want to learn, Singletary, after being named interim coach midway through the 2008 season, set out to change the tone of the 49ers.

His methods are often unconventional and always attention-grabbing. In his first game after replacing Mike Nolan, a 34--13 home loss to the Seahawks last Oct. 26, Singletary benched starting quarterback J.T. O'Sullivan, dropped his pants at halftime as a motivational ploy, sent starting tight end Vernon Davis to the showers in the fourth quarter after he was flagged for unnecessary roughness, and launched a legendary postgame rant about not tolerating selfish players. "I want winners!" Singletary bellowed, planting the seeds for a marketing campaign that bears his likeness on Bay Area billboards.

Whatever his style, Singletary has gotten results. The 49ers won five of their final seven games last season to finish 7--9, and this season they've exhibited discipline and toughness in their 20--16 defeat of the defending NFC champion Cardinals in Arizona andtheir 23--10 win over the Seahawks on Sunday at Candlestick Park. "This can be a special team, and I want them to realize how good they can be," Singletary says. "The most important thing was for us to come together and believe in one another and have that as our foundation going forward."

The former Bears middle linebacker known as Samurai Mike has the Hall of Fame credentials and the Super Bowl ring; what's more,he doesn't care at all about big names or individual accolades. His constant message is team and togetherness, and his strategy is about as nuanced as Clark's baseball bat: run the ball on offense, attack on defense and remain alert, disciplined and aggressive until the final whistle.

In his first practice as interim coach, Singletary didn't just tell defenders to sprint to the football—he demanded that they do it. The pace was so fast and furious that some players vomited. But even the sick ones got up and moved on to the next play.

"Greatness is not about someone who has the ability to be great," the 50-year-old Singletary says, fixing the listener with the same piercing stare that once made quarterbacks weak in the knees and now makes the 49ers stiff in the spine. "Greatness shows up whensomeone might not have that ability but finds a way to succeed. They outwork their opponents, they outhit their opponents, theyoutfight their opponents. They want it more. Don't give me the guy who's supposed to be all-world and you've got to try to talk him into something. Give me the guy who has maybe just enough talent to be on the field but thinks he's great, and who's willing to do whatever he can do to contribute, to make his team better. That's what I want. Give me all the misfits, the guys no one else wants. Now trust me, I want some talent too. But give me the right type of talent."

Some of it is in place already. Willis, a 2007 first-round pick out of Mississippi, was named All-Pro in each of his first two seasons and looks set to spearhead the defense for years to come. Fifth-year back Frank Gore has rushed for 1,000 yards in each of the last


�three seasons, and against Seattle on Sunday he had 207 yards and two touchdowns on just 16 carries, his best rushing day since his Pro Bowl season of 2006. Third-year left tackle Joe Staley is one of the game's promising young linemen. And cornerback Nate Clements is a skilled and savvy veteran. But the pool quickly gets shallower. One preseason fantasy football ranking, for instance, did not even have quarterback Shaun Hill among the top 32 in the league, despite the fact that he's 9--3 as a starter in San Francisco.

The Niners' 2--0 record won't convince everyone that the team has turned around. Skeptics will point out that the Cardinals, who had three receivers surpass 1,000 yards last season, were down to only one healthy wideout (Larry Fitzgerald) when the teams met in the opener. And Seattle, which kicked off on Sunday without six projected starters, lost four more to injury during the game: quarterback Matt Hasselbeck (ribs), linebacker Lofa Tatupu (hamstring), cornerback Josh Wilson (ankle) and right tackle Sean Locklear (ankle).

San Francisco also began the 2007 season 2--0 before losing eight straight games. While the Niners' upcoming schedule is not a murderers' row, it does begin with a trip to Minnesota this weekend to play the undefeated Vikings, who have led the league in run defense in each of the past three seasons and are certain to target Gore.

None of this matters to Singletary. When he put his team through a strenuous minicamp in March, his objective was to persuade theplayers that even when they feel they have nothing left to give, there's more in reserve. And that as they push themselves, they should bring along a teammate, because on Sundays the only support they have on the field is one another.

"If they're not taking us seriously, that's O.K.," Singletary says of other NFL teams. "They can keep doing that. We're going tocontinue to take ourselves seriously. We're going to continue to make steps each day. The most important thing for us is to go out each day and get better. If we can get a little bit better each day, we're going to get done what we need to."

Singletary's mission undoubtedly would be aided by the presence of Michael Crabtree, the record-setting Texas Tech wide receiverwhom the Niners selected 10th in the draft last April. But the two sides have been unable to come to terms on a contract, and Crabtree is said to be prepared to sit out the season and reenter the draft next year.

"I think this young man is really misconstrued," Singletary says of Crabtree, who is seeking a contract comparable to the five-year,$23.5 million deal Oakland gave to the seventh pick, wideout Darrius Heyward-Bey from Maryland. "I had a chance to see his heartwhen we met before the draft and in the first minicamp, when he was trying to run routes and he shouldn't have been because of his [surgically repaired left] foot. He was standing over there about to cry because I wouldn't let him run routes. The guy is a competitor. I would love to have Michael Crabtree, but I want him the right way. If he's meant to be here, he'll be here."

People within the 49ers' organization say that one of Singletary's strengths is his commitment to helping his players succeed beyond the football field. He preaches the importance of character and judges people based on what he sees, not what he has heard.

Davis is a case in point. The No. 6 pick, out of Maryland, in 2006, he quickly developed a reputation as a hothead and me-first player whose performance didn't match his self-image. But Davis has matured so much in the 11 months since Singletary sent him to the showers—no more fights in practice, no more look-at-me first-down signals, no more costly penalties—that earlier this month Singletary named him a team captain.

"Mike Singletary is a very emotional guy," says Davis. "He cares. I had to learn about him, and he had to learn about me. We had to get on the same page. I wanted to win and I wanted to be good, and he wanted to win and he wanted us to be a team. He didn't wantany individuals. He made me realize and accept the simple fact that there are no individuals on a team."

Says Singletary, "In my life, I've always wanted to get a group of men together who have a common thought, common goal. I don'tcare who they are. But if those men can come together, check their egos at the door and honestly care about each other for more than what they do on the field, I think something very special can be created."

Is he his brother's keeper? Yes, he is.

Singletary stresses the evil of overconfidence By Michael Silver, Yahoo! Sports

Each morning, Mike Singletary sits alone in his office at the San Francisco 49ers’ training facility and prays to start the day.

“I’m excited about the time that I have to meditate on that day,” the first-year coach explains. “These guys are special to me, and I want to make sure the things I say to them are important, that I’m not just talking to them. I pray for direction every day.”

On Thursday, with the Niners preparing for a road game against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday that will feature the NFL’s onlyclash of 2-0 teams, Singletary prayed for focus and perspective. Specifically, he wants his players to avoid getting caught up in their early success – victories over a pair of NFC West foes, including the defending conference champion Arizona Cardinals – and to understand how much harder they’ll have to work to earn the franchise’s first playoff trip since 2002.

“Absolutely, we have to stay focused on the goal and continue to work to get better,” Singletary says. “I think about this every minute of the day.”

Now here’s the interesting thing: More than many of his peers, Singletary has a chance to lead by example, because he’s the guygenerating much of the hype. On a team short on big names – stud halfback Frank Gore(notes) is decidedly low-key; Pro Bowl middlelinebacker Patrick Willis(notes) is still young and overshadowed by Ray Lewis(notes) and Brian Urlacher(notes); top draft pick Michael Crabtree(notes) is … well, never mind – it’s the head coach who’s attracting much of the national attention.

This is for three reasons: First, Singletary was a Hall of Fame middle linebacker for one of the greatest defenses of all time. Secondly, he’s one of the hottest coaches in the NFL, having won six of his last seven games, often with his team as the underdog. Lastly, in his first game as the 49ers’ interim coach last October, he dropped trou at halftime, and gave a memorable postgame news conference,making him an instant Internet sensation.

Naturally, there’s a perception that Singletary’s a little crazy, one that gibes with his signature wild-eyed pre-snap pose from his playing days. Yet Singletary is grounded by faith and conviction, and is well aware of the warning signs that can erode team chemistry, focus and unquestioned commitment.

Singletary, who starred for the Chicago Bears from 1981-92, was part of the 1985 team that went 18-1 and held the New England Patriots to negative yardage throughout the first half of an emphatic Super Bowl XX blowout. Yet for all the great players who suited up for coach Mike Ditka during that era, the Bears couldn’t even manage another conference title.

Looking back, Singletary believes his teams underachieved – and that they did so because they fell prey to the same forces he’sguarding against in his current role.

“There were a lot of missed opportunities,” he says. “When I talk to [former Bears defensive coordinator] Buddy Ryan and Coach Ditka, I’ve told them the same thing. There were so many things that were handled the wrong way.

“We were a young football team – very vulnerable, very naïve. The coaches did what they could, but I’m just talking about playersunderstanding that if we stay together, things are going to work out. People aren’t going to forget that you’re a great football player. Maybe this week somebody else gets the credit, and that next week another guys does. But none of that matters – as long as the team succeeds, we all win.

“When you get guys fighting, backbiting, envious of each other and worrying about who gets what accolade, once that happens, as a team, you’re in trouble. That is a cancer to the team, and I realize now that somebody has to step in and stop it.”

Two things: 1) Uh, whoa – I think Singletary just called out some of the greatest players of their era. And 2) Any guesses as to who in the Niners’ universe is likely to be that person who’ll step in and regulate if necessary?

Let’s ask Niners tight end Vernon Davis(notes), who notoriously was sent off the field by Singletary during the coach’s volatile debut game last Oct. 26. Singletary had just been named interim coach to replace the fired Mike Nolan, a week before the Niners’ bye, and Davis did not handle the team’s 34-13 home defeat to the Seattle Seahawks well.


�At one point in the third quarter Davis incurred a personal foul penalty, then talked back as the new coach tried to admonish him. Singletary ordered Davis, the sixth overall pick of the ’06 draft, to the locker room for the rest of the game.

The perception since then has been that Davis represents everything that is wrong with the modern athlete, and that his old-school coach is suitably appalled. But either the two men are very good liars – in this case, given Singletary’s integrity and penchant for blunt honesty, not a good bet – or they’re the NFL’s most surprising set of BFFs in some time.

“Singletary’s like my best buddy,” Davis said when I interviewed him during the preseason. “He’s on my side, man. He’s really raising my game to the next level. He’s just being a coach, man … just talking to us like men. Sometimes it’s hard to hear, but he can’t help it if this is how he feels.”

As Davis spoke on a bench outside the locker room, Singletary walked by, put his hand on the player’s shoulder and looked me in the eye. “One day soon,” he said emphatically. “The best.”

The coach walked away, and Davis smiled. “I told you – I like him,” he continued. “He’ll critique you on every play; he watcheseverything. He’ll definitely call you out, no matter who you are, and that’s what you need in order for your team to be great. Because of him, I’m catching passes I was never able to catch.”

On Thursday, Singletary said of Davis: “I enjoy his heart. He is a tremendous individual with a great work ethic. He’s willing to do anything you ask him to do. When you see a guy with the heart that he has, and you think about his reputation, it’s one of the most unbelievable things in the NFL.”

In fairness, Singletary’s public tirade is one of the main reasons Davis has that reputation. Then again, the man was just a wee bit amped up for his first game as a head coach. Remember, in an effort to underscore his belief that his players were getting their butts kicked, he pulled down his pants at halftime. “I learned a lot after the first game – a lot,” Singletary says. “Looking back now, it’s kind of like a player’s first game. When he first goes in, it’s really fast, man. For me, that day, it was on. After that, it slowed down quite a bit for me, and it slowed down quite quickly. And I just sit back and take it all in stride.”

As for the unconventional visual aid, Singletary laughs and says, “I didn’t think anything of it. I’m sure a lot of people said, ‘He took his pants down? He’s losing his mind.’ I’m sure people had different visuals in their mind about what that really meant.

“My wife knew I had long underwear on. So, it’s like, what is everybody making a big deal for? She said, ‘You didn’t take thosedown, did you, Mike? I know this – I wouldn’t do it again.”

In his second game, Singletary’s team went on the road to face the Cardinals in a Monday night clash and was in position to pull off the upset until a case of time-mismanagement derailed a potential game-winning drive. That was San Francisco’s sixth consecutivedefeat, but the Niners settled down and won five of their last seven, and San Francisco’s owners removed Singletary’s interim tag.

This year, with a pair of coordinators (Jimmy Raye on offense and Greg Manusky on defense) in place who share his emphasis on simplicity and mental toughness and a holdover quarterback, Shaun Hill(notes), who sacrifices flash for a sound, low-risk approach, Singletary is far more comfortable, and closer to fulfilling his vision.

Not surprisingly, most of his players – and especially the veteran leaders – are down with the program.

“Coach Sing has done a tremendous job of getting this team rallied behind him,” eighth-year center Eric Heitmann(notes) says. “Ithink he understands what we go through as players. He’s by far one of the most inspirational coaches I’ve ever heard speak. When you get to the NFL, you feel like you’ve heard it all. But when Coach Sing speaks, it’s almost like you can hear a pin drop. It’s always very meaningful and very applicable.”

Right now, Singletary’s message is an obvious one: Block out the noise, concentrate only on the Vikings and don’t get full of yourselves.

“Some of the guys have been asking me when I’m going to lose my voice,” the coach said Thursday. “It hasn’t happened – yet.”

Somehow, as Singletary flashes back to his missed opportunities from the ’80s, I get the feeling it’s only a matter of time.

This nutcracker isn't a ballet By Chris Jones, ESPN The Magazine

Mike Singletary stands alone in the middle of two fields of action, a still life amid the chaos. A wooden cross rests on his chest, sunglasses hide his eyes and he holds his notebook in his hands, always. These are his tools, the instruments of his new profession.

The notebook is a Moleskine, with a black leather cover and rounded corners and a collection of crisp, white, acid-free pages inside. It has the same texture as a football, which gives him something to do with his hands. Vincent van Gogh used a similar notebook; so did Hemingway and Picasso. It's an artist's notebook, not for someone who scribbles. A man who uses a Moleskine tucks in his shirts.

Nearly every day of training camp, held under a blue California sky, Singletary has worn the same outfit: white cap, white windbreaker, red shorts, white socks, black shoes -- all of it looking fresh out of the box. The wooden cross, hanging from a simple black cord, is put on last, so it's the first thing you see when you look at him. He wears his clothes like a uniform, his cross like a medal. He looks precise. Knife-sharp. Ready to work.

There's something disarmingly serene about him, this 50-year-old man with the notebook. Here's a football coach who has commanded his San Francisco 49ers to throw their shoulders as hard as they ever have -- and yet he stands among them nearly still. Watching him now, with his arms folded, his pen in his mouth, he looks like an architect or poet, a man dreaming in the sun.

"I love this notebook," Singletary says later. "I keep a library of them. I write down things that strike me. I'll see a player do something I want him to do, I might write down, Today, he got it. It's like raising kids: You never know when you're going to get a specialmoment. It's easy to forget them. I want to keep track of the moments that make us who we are."

To keep reading this Mike Singletary feature -- including thoughts from the boyfriend of one of his daughters, who happens to play for a division rival -- you must be an ESPN Insider.

This is the same man who shattered 16 of his own helmets at Baylor, who went on to become a legend as a Hall of Fame middle linebacker for the Chicago Bears from 1981 to 1992: a brutal player who ranked first or second on his team in tackles for 11 seasons, a player famed for his wild-eyed glare, twitching fingers and preternatural ability to know where the ball was going and how to get there in the half-second before it did. Singletary was a fear-seeking missile, able to talk the opposition onto their heels, shouting threats across the line, then finishing the job with his arms and shoulders. There's terrific film of No. 50, mud-caked, his breath visible in the cold, berating the Green Bay Packers: "Hey, baby, we gonna be here all day. We gonna be here all day, baby! I like this kind of party. I like this kind of party, baby. All right. Bring it, baby!" He follows this chant by wrapping himself around player after player,dragging them down to the ground with a ferocity that makes him seem possessed.

Back then, Singletary wanted to follow his father behind the pulpit after he finished dishing out postconcussion syndrome. Whilemastering Buddy Ryan's complex 46 defense in Chicago, he even found time to become an ordained minister. Then Mike Ditka chomped in his ear: "Michael, why don't you think about becoming a coach?" Singletary said, "Oh, no, I'm not going to do that." But the idea stuck. That's when the transition began, his pilgrim's progress: That was the moment Mike Singletary began to reconcile his faith with his calling.

He believes in his heart, has always believed, that every one of us has a gift given to us by God. His happened to be the ability to smoke men in the jaw, and his discovery of it reads like a superhero's creation myth. He was a sickly child wracked with chronicbronchitis and pneumonia, the "youngest and smallest" of 10 children raised in a tough part of Houston. His father didn't allow him to wear shorts in gym or play football until junior high. But Singletary's bedridden childhood, combined with the loss of two of his brothers -- one killed by a drunken driver, the other by carbon monoxide poisoning -- gave him a powerful combination of motivation and gratitude that made him want to be perfect: No matter the nature of our gift, he decided, our sole purpose is to nurture it. "If you're blessed, and you fail to achieve what you could have achieved, that's not okay," Singletary says. "That doesn't work for me."

In Chicago, his full-time job was to live up to his potential as a deliverer of hurt. Today, his job is to help his players remain accountable for their own blessings. He frequently calls himself a "steward" and a "keeper." But it takes a long time for men built like Singletary to forget how it felt to play. When he began his coaching career six years ago, in charge of linebackers for the Ravens, he showed up for his first day of work carrying his old pads and helmet. Football, for him, was still about hitting and being hit.

With time, though, he found new tools to make an impression. He became a teacher, first as a mentor to future Hall of Famer RayLewis, then in San Francisco as the right hand to former head coach Mike Nolan. Despite the reputation he built as a player, his 49ers


�now know him as an honest man, a humble man, a disciplined man. "He's not the screamer everyone expects," says left tackle Joe Staley. "He's intense. There's a difference."

There are still flashes of Samurai Mike. Nearly every one of his players has been on the ass end of his tirades. "It's not comfortable, for sure," says quarterback Alex Smith. "He won't tell you what you like to hear, but I respect him for it. We all do." Placekicker Joe Nedney is more succinct: "You don't want to fail in front of Coach Singletary."

Losing still brings out the devil in him. In his first game as a head coach last season, in Week 8, Singletary expressed his displeasure with his team's performance against the Seahawks by famously dropping his pants in the locker room at halftime. In the third quarter he lit into Vernon Davis after the tight end incurred a 15-yard penalty for slapping Seattle's Brian Russell. (Singletary was expecting penance when Davis returned to the bench. Instead, Davis acted as though he had just taken the dog for a walk.) After Seattle finally won the lopsided game, 34-13, Samurai Mike held a press conference, apologizing on behalf of his team and erupting into an oft-replayed rant: "Cannot play with them. Cannot win with them. Cannot coach with them. Can't do it!" Here was the Mike Singletaryeverybody remembered. This is what happened when you took the pads off a crazy-eyed linebacker and called him a coach.

Crazy worked last season, at least in San Francisco: right man, right place, right time. Nolan let the players wear shorts in practice.Singletary did not, and the 49ers won five of their last seven games. For a city that had endured six seasons without making theplayoffs, for a once-great franchise that had become a laughingstock, the arrival of Samurai Mike felt so necessary that everything he said was gospel. Suddenly, the man who believed in being saved was the savior.

"You can write up all the X's and O's you want. That doesn't matter. What makes a good coach is -- whatever you put on the board, guys do it."

"That first game set the tone," says Staley. "He wasn't going to put up with any bulls---. We were all so sick of losing, everybody bought in. It felt like the start of something good."

But his introduction, in some ways, cornered him -- made Mike Singletary seem like someone he's not, or someone he's not always.Most fans remember the Davis incident, but they aren't so quick to recall the warm embrace Singletary gave his tight end the nextgame, against the Cardinals, after Davis caught his season's first touchdown. ("I'm all about Coach Singletary," Davis says now.) And unlike Nolan, who liked to see his players fight, Singletary imposes strict limits on tempers, theirs and his, punishing anything that resembles a scuffle by making the team run gassers.

Still, his fiery reputation persists. The coach's locker room sermons are plastered across the city in giant block letters, printed on T-shirts, played on radio and TV ads. Just down the road from camp, he stares down from a billboard that rises beside the freeway: "I'm Not a Moral Victory Type of Guy," it reads. Planes land at the airport next to another that reads, "I Want Winners." Even when he says something that doesn't make sense -- "Physical With an F" -- it's celebrated as a new kind of genius, a smashmouth wisdom.Cynicism has died in San Francisco. "You've got no choice but to believe," says linebacker Patrick Willis.

The only skeptic left is Mike Singletary. He knows that this year can't be like his first. He knows that he can't remain at the center of things. "I don't really know how that got going," he says of the billboards, "but it can't be about me anymore. The spotlight has to shine on our players. The longer it's on me, the worse we're doing."

And so he's tried to dismantle his stage presence, piece by piece, starting with all signs of Samurai Mike. He has stopped giving extended interviews and refuses photo shoots. Since his motivational mooning made the rounds, he has told players that what goes on in the locker room, however colorful, is not for the press. Even his assistant coaches seem afraid to talk about him, although defensive coordinator Greg Manusky does reveal that his boss's physical practices are similar to the famously brutal sessions of Marty Schottenheimer, the ex-linebacker Manusky coached under with the Chargers.

Samurai Mike's disappearance left a void, though. Into it Singletary inserted the Nutcracker, a daily drill that represents his philosophy about life and football boiled down to its essence. He likes the drill because, after watching it, everybody talks about it rather than about him. At his command, pairs of long red pads are laid out on the grass, parallel to one another; beyond those pads lies damnation. Players line up inside the pads, a hand on the ground, one man pointed north, one south, face masks nearly touching, eyes black. A whistle is blown, and they collide, attempting to break each other off at the waist or push the other into damnation, whichever comes first.

The billboard reads, "This Nutcracker Isn't a Ballet." But that makes light of the most important 15 minutes of the day. The Nutcrackeris Singletary's way of learning the truth about the men in front of him, whether they have any chance of becoming what he was. Lately, when he's questioned about his abilities -- not as a leader or a motivator, but as a strategist, as a coach -- he points to the Nutcracker and the discipline it breeds. "I've coached six years and played 20," he says. "To me, you can write up all the X's and O's you want. You could have a million plays. That doesn't matter. What makes a good coach is -- whatever you put on the board, guys do it. If that's what you're asking me" -- and it is, because nobody gets paid enough to correct Mike Singletary -- "I'm decent." Later,

�when a reporter at a press conference asks whether the drill might be too hard on his players, Singletary looks over his sunglasses and says, "All I know is, football is a contact sport."

As the words leave his mouth, you can see he regrets them. With every catchphrase, the spotlight swings back on him. Which explains why he's spending more time being still these days, why he delegates the shouting to assistants. He's wearing his sunglasses more,because he knows when people can't see his eyes he's nearly invisible. And on rare occasions when he feels the spirit of Samurai Mike rising in him, he knows he must rein it in, lest he lead the news. He's so torn in two sometimes, you can see him fight to steadyhimself. When a question provokes, Singletary will clench his hands and lower his head, blink a dozen times and let out a long, low breath. That's how he exorcises his demons now that he's without his old outlets, now that, for the first time, he knows how it feels to be the man who gets caught.

There's one more way Singletary is trying to be the shepherd. By force of will, he has trained his mind to range only so far. If he ever did confront life's big questions, lying sick in his boyhood bed, he refuses to any longer. For answers, he turns to the cross around his neck. It's wooden like a box, into which he can put all his doubts and fears. Ask him how he'll react if his team endures another losing season, ask him whether he'll be able to stand it, and he says, "I don't ever think about, What happens if we don't make it? My mind doesn't go that way." Instead, he homes in on atoms, worries about only the smallest details.

"He's very, very particular," says O.J. Atogwe, a safety for the division-rival St. Louis Rams who happens to be dating Jill Singletary, one of Mike's seven kids with his wife, Kim. "He's a big family man. He loves his children, and they have a joyous home. But he runs a tight ship. Beds have to be made. Teeth have to be brushed -- before you eat. His house has a lot of love, but it has a lot of order, too. The little things become everything."

His household philosophy extends to football. (Or maybe his football philosophy extends to his household.) On the field, he was so physical he might have seemed out of control, unthinking, but there was always a calculation behind the frenzy. As a player, Singletary negotiated his contracts without an agent. "Everybody knew about his intensity, his eyes, but he was well-schooled," says Ditka. "He knew what everybody needed to do and where they needed to be."

In that game against the Packers, Singletary interrupted his taunts to warn teammates to watch for the quick pass to the right side.Today, at Niners practice, he breaks his silence for the first time in what seems like hours, putting his notebook in his Windbreaker and crossing the sidelines onto the field. Team drills are unfolding, defense vs. offense, red shirts vs. white. Two huddles form, but the defense is tired, these giant men with their taped ankles, and their huddle is ragged. There's too much space between their shoulders, and they break with a half-hearted clap. "Whoa, whoa, whoa," Singletary says. "Go back and do that again."

He doesn't shout it. He says it. Words, not shoulders. ("He doesn't want his message to get lost in the tone," Atogwe says.) The giant men return obediently to their huddle. They form a more perfect circle, and when they break, it sounds like thunder clapping, bones snapping. They stand a half-inch taller, dig their cleats into the turf a little deeper. Singletary nods. Horns sound. Helmets crack.

"It's simple math," Singletary says. "I don't want to be a nag. Even in my parenting, I wish I could learn to let things go. But if I say this is the way we're going to do it, then we need to make sure we're doing it every day. If we do this and this, then we'll get that. That's how I see life, the game, everything else. Do these few things the right way each day, and the rest becomes inevitable."

So Singletary fixes the huddle and walks off the field and stands alone. He pulls out his notebook -- his Moleskine notebook, the one with a black leather cover and rounded corners and a collection of crisp, white, acid-free pages inside -- and takes his pen out of his mouth. Today they got it. Ten or 20 years from now, when he's someone else again, he'll read that line and remember that today was a beautiful day in San Francisco, and that he spent it watching the men he used to be.

Singletary set the tone, which was tough and disciplined By Gwen Knapp, San Francisco Chronicle

(09-14) 04:00 PDT Glendale, Ariz. -- Mike Singletary heeded his instincts, not the coaching textbook, late in the third quarter Sunday. He called a timeout, potentially wasting a precious resource that the 49ers would desperately need in the final minutes of the game.

He saw a tired, frustrated defense on the field. He saw the Cardinals gaining first downs that would have eluded them earlier in the day. So in his first game as a full-time head coach, Singletary violated a major rule.

"Sometimes if you save your timeouts until the end of the game, you don't need them," he said. "... I felt like this was the time: Give them a break and let them clear their heads. I told them: Just hold (the Cardinals) to three and keep us in this football game."

Other coaches will do the same thing, typically in a panic. When Singletary gathered the defense around him, TV cameras showed acalm, determined face, without a hint of anxiety. At one point, he pointed backward toward the sideline with his thumb, like a hitchhiker in reverse.

"I really don't remember what I was saying," he said later. "Maybe: 'Let's get out of here.' "

The 49ers' defense, as recommended, held Arizona to a field goal, and the moribund offense suddenly revived itself and scored what would turn out to be the winning touchdown in a 2o-16 season opener.

That timeout wasn't wasted. The 49ers finished the game with one remaining.

"That was great coaching, right there," linebacker Manny Lawson said. "Several guys on defense play special teams, and they weregetting winded from being out there so much. That timeout was exactly what we needed."

Singletary has adamantly stated that he doesn't want to be the most famous person wearing 49ers colors. He would rather have thedistinction go to a player, or several of them, dropping him deep into the fame depth chart.

Sunday's game in the desert became a DNA test, with every fiber linking it directly to Singletary. The 49ers won on defense, effort, discipline and calm stubbornness. They committed only one turnover and four penalties, compared with two and 12 for the Cardinals.

"Our formula is going to have to be work ethic and character," Singletary said. "... We're a team that has to emphasize the little things until we get the confidence to do the big things. Right now, that's where we are."

A cult of personality has enveloped Singletary's coaching tenure since his first passionate news conference as the 49ers' interim leader last fall. But the doubt always remained: Could his intensity really transform the team over time, especially because the roster didn't change all that dramatically from the one that went 7-9 last year?

The opener provided at least one strong hint. The defense hit hard the entire game, mercilessly body-slamming receivers and dashing hopes of extra yardage after a catch. There were very few missed tackles or moments of confusion. The same players, at this time last year, did not reveal such poise, or intent to punish anyone who invaded their space.

To reward and reboot the defense, Singletary came up with the timeout, revealing a soft side, an intuitive connection with his playersthat often escapes notice.

In the end, great coaching is about judgment, about knowing what notes to hit and when. Singletary showed a lot of range Sunday. He turned heated at the end of the first half, pointing repeatedly at officials as he walked toward the locker room, still frustrated over an unexplained penalty for disrupting the Cardinals' signals on a field-goal attempt.

"I was really frustrated in the first half because we just couldn't get some answers," he said. "I don't need them at halftime. I don't need them at halftime. I need them when it happens. That's something we talked about before the game. When something happens, someonewas going to explain it, and it didn't happen that way."

But as a winning coach, he could work only so much frustration after the fact. "It got better in the second half," he said, drawing laughter as he explained: "They sent someone else over on our sideline, and I liked him better."


�

In the locker room, Singletary said, he also tried to lower the emotional temperature. "I told them, 'Guys, this is one game,' " he said. "We've been 1-0 before. ... I told them: Enjoy it. They deserved it and earned it. But keep it in proper perspective."

He's right. They have been 1-0. In fact, two years ago, they were 1-0 after a win over Arizona, through which the offense lumbered until the final minutes. But that game didn't have the Singletary DNA attached, the stubborn toughness mixed with just enough empathy to call the right timeout, even at the wrong time.

Singletary hopes to be author of 49ers success By Dan Brown, San Jose Mercury News

It's easy to trace the origin of the fiery speeches. Mike Singletary's father was a preacher — an imposing 6-foot-2, 260-pound reverend known for his fire-and-brimstone delivery.

The 49ers' brutal training-camp sessions have obvious roots, too. The coach learned those under Chicago Bears defensive coordinator Buddy Ryan, who introduced himself to Singletary by making him run sideline to sideline and calling him "a fat little rascal."

Choosing Shaun Hill as his starting quarterback? You could see that coming as early as 2005, when Singletary wrote about the teamhe would someday have: "Next, I will find a quarterback. He won't have to have a great arm "... I want a quarterback who will look me in the eyes when we're losing — whose expression will tell me that he still believes he can win."

Singletary wrote that line years before Hill looked him in the eyes at halftime, refused to be benched and led a comeback victory over St. Louis last December.

Singletary might be a neophyte coach, but he's no mystery.

His life is an open book — three of them, in fact.

Singletary is the co-author of "Calling the Shots" (a 1986 autobiography), "Daddy's Home at Last" (1998 advice for balancing family and career) and "One-on-One" (lessons in Christianity published in 2005).

For his next project, Singletary is making revisions on a 49ers franchise in need of total rewrite. The 49ers open the season Sunday in Arizona in search of their first playoff trip since 2002.

Because Singletary has such a short coaching résumé — 5-4 as an interim last season, no coordinator experience — the best place for a background check is his literary work. All told, it's a 640-page paper trail of his experiences, values and aspirations.

Indeed, many of his actions as a 49ers coach have already been foreshadowed on the page. (Vernon Davis might want to check out the chapter on tough discipline in "Daddy's Home.")

As Singletary embarks on his first full season, here is a look at the hurdles ahead, with help from the coach's own words.

Challenge: The 49ers are coming off six consecutive losing seasons.

By the book: Singletary has been dealing with long odds since the womb. "When my mother was pregnant with me, her doctors recommended aborting me. She already had given birth nine times and had had several miscarriages. "... I was a regular at the hospital. In fact, I clearly remember the time when I had to sleep in an oxygen tent. The doctors told my mom, 'This kid will not have a normal childhood. He will have a difficult time keeping up with others.' "

Challenge: The 49ers have yet to sign first-round pick Michael Crabtree, and the impasse shows no sign of a breakthrough.

By the book: If Singletary has sounded diplomatic about the situation, it's because he was the Crabtree of 1981, albeit with less money involved. Like the Texas Tech receiver, the young linebacker thought he should have gone higher on draft day. "I wanted first-round money, whether I had been drafted in the second or sixth round. To me, that meant three years, $120,000. Well, during summer of1981, I got the Bears' offer: $22,000 for one year. 'It's just a ploy,' a friend told me. But tactic or not, I wouldn't sign."

Challenge: Troubled by the 49ers' work ethic, Singletary ordered a hill built alongside the practice field for conditioning drills.

By the book: Singletary discovered the glory of hill training in his Bears days. He described a boat ramp near Lake Forest, Ill., as "worthy of a World Cup slalom competition. We'd run 20, 30, 40, sometimes 50 of those hills. Always the same routine: sprint up,walk down. Sometimes we'd sprint up backward, working on our pass drops "... Other players would visit, but they'd run 10 or so and leave."

Challenge: Singletary came across as a little unhinged during his famous "I want winners!" rant that became a YouTube sensation.


�

By the book: Singletary has been ranting for decades. "I generally don't like nicknames, but in 1983, my third year with the Bears,strong safety Doug Plank hung Samurai on me. He likes Samurai because when I get excited I scream and throw my arms around the way the late John Belushi did on 'Saturday Night Live' a few years ago. And I do scream when I hit someone — loud, karate-like yells."

Challenge: The 49ers' offense lacks explosiveness.

By the book: Singletary envisioned a conservative offense long before getting the 49ers job. "When I'm head coach, I'm going to run it, run it and run it some more — and toss an occasional deep pass for balance. The question will be, can the other team stop our run? "... I want my quarterback to be a disciplined leader. I don't need him to win the game. We'll have 11 people and together we will win the game. The quarterback has to be the kind of guy who won't hurt us."

Challenge: Singletary had a dust-up with Davis last season after the tight end committed a personal-foul penalty and failed to stopwhen Singletary tried to pull him aside as Davis came off the field.

By the book: No wonder Davis' lack of accountability set Singletary off. "Once I accidentally hit an opponent the wrong way and hurt him, but the referee didn't make the call. I knew I had broken a rule, so I told the ref, 'I did it. I didn't do it on purpose but I did it. It was my fault. You should penalize me.' I wanted both the referee and the other player to know that I was honest and I would takeresponsibility for my mistakes. The ref thought I was nuts."

Challenge: The previous two 49ers coaches, Dennis Erickson and Mike Nolan, went a combined 27-60.

By the book: Shortly after meeting his future wife, Kim, at Baylor, Singletary told her, "One day I'm going to be one of the greatest linebackers that ever played this game." Her response? Yeah, right. Now, after a Hall of Fame playing career, Singletary is back at it. "Deep in my being, with everything that's in me, I believe I can be one of the best coaches in the history of the NFL. That's what I want to be. "... I believe it is my destiny."

Mike Singletary: 49ers' leading figure commands with his own brand of ferocity By John Crumpacker, San Francisco Chronicle

(09-05) 15:54 PDT -- With his dominant presence and his pedigree as a Hall of Fame linebacker for the Chicago Bears, a cult of personality has bloomed around Mike Singletary in his rookie season as an NFL head coach.

So completely has the Singletary persona permeated the 49ers' facility that players and staffers alike refer to him with by the childlike handle "Coach Sing," as if he were a jolly camp counselor at a summer retreat.

The man doesn't sing - he barks and bellows and berates, not to yell for yelling's sake but to coax the best out of each man, each unit and the entire team.

Singletary doesn't necessarily like the attention but he understands that at least for now, he is the face and voice of the 49ers franchise.

The face is seen on billboards accompanied by some pithy aphorism like "I'm not a moral victory kind of guy." The voice is heard in sound bytes and by those who watch practice on a regular basis.

Like Wednesday, for example.

If the devil's in the details, Singletary gave his team a little hell for the lax practice session he saw unfolding around him. He called a halt to the proceedings and laced into his players while urging them to approach their work with the alacrity of those trying toaccomplish something great.

You're not good enough to go through the motions in practice, was Singletary's message.

From the notes he takes religiously in his small black notebook to his work with individual players after practice, Singletary is devoted to the little things that power the big thing.

In Singletary's world, show is much more important than tell. He has his vision for how the 49ers should look and how they should play, and he's unwavering in his approach.

Given his stated goal of having a team tough enough to impose its will on opponents, Singletary opened training camp Aug. 1 with a "nutcracker" drill that pitted similarly-sized players in brief but intense one-on-one battles that had pads a-popping.

He ran the nutcracker two more times in the first week of camp. The price to be paid was injuries that kept linebacker Patrick Willis and guard David Baas out for most of August, as well as lesser dings to linebacker Parys Haralson and running back Michael Robinson.

No tyrant he, Singletary backed off and did not call for another "nutcracker" the remainder of camp.

"If HBO would have come here this year, the ratings would have been off the charts from the first day," said linebacker Takeo Spikes, referring to the cable network's NFL show "Hard Knocks."

"Usually, in the ninth or 10th day of camp, the coach says 'Bring it up, let's go to the movies' and cancels practice," Spikes said. "He did it, he brought us up, but we didn't go to the movies."

On the day that Spikes hoped a movie was in the offing, the players got something else entirely from this demanding former motivational speaker.

"Just a humbling talk," he said. "Just when you think you're doing something right, he brings you back to the grind."

Make no mistake - Training Camp '09 was a grind under Singletary, who had the players practice in full pads twice a day for all but three occasions. That took some adjustment for veteran players used to practicing in shorts and helmets in the afternoon.

"By far this is the hardest camp I've been through," said cornerback Dre' Bly, an 11-year veteran of three other NFL teams. "It will pay off when we start playing (regular season) games. We're going to see rewards from the kind of camp we had."


�Singletary is both hands-on and voice-over as a coach. He'll holler when the occasion demands and stand back and observe how thesausage is made at other times.

The other day, he pulled second-year defensive end Kentwan Balmer aside and showed him the correct way to move laterally along the line of scrimmage. The coach also demonstrated the way Balmer had been doing it, and it looked like a man hopping up and down on a bed of hot coals.

And always, there's the scribbling in his small Moleskine notebook ... Check that. Knowing Singletary and the rectitude with which he lives his life, the notebook is probably filled with neat block letters that address all those little things that go into making the great hulking beast that is a football team.

"I never knew if I'd have a chance to be in this situation," said Singletary, who is, still, a rookie head coach in the NFL despite his 5-4 interim record last year. "Now, being here, it feels like something I've been doing for a very long time.

"I'm ready to go."

49ERS PROFILE: Tom Rathman By John Crumpacker, San Francisco Chronicle

(08-20) 20:59 PDT -- Looking like he could still strap 'em on and gain a few hard yards or pick up a blitz, Tom Rathman has made a seamless transition from NFL player to NFL assistant coach.

After two years with the Raiders and three grim years with the Lions, Rathman is back home as the 49ers' running backs coach. It's his second go-round in that role as he coached the running backs for Steve Mariucci from 1997-2002.

"Coach Rathman, he's a tough dude," Frank Gore said admiringly. "He knows what he's talking about. I think he'll make me into oneof the top all-around backs in the league. I like him. I like him a whole lot, even if he asks me to do things I haven't done before."

With the respect that comes from playing fullback in the NFL for nine years, eight of them with the 49ers, Rathman is a hands-oncoach. As the 49ers go through training camp, Rathman speaks in measured tones and demonstrates everything that he wants done, from the correct way to pick up the blitz to running through the hole.

It's no accident that rookie Glen Coffee is having a good camp. His running ability is natural, but his ability to block a blitzinglinebacker isn't. Still, Coffee performed the skill adroitly the other day, with Rathman watching closely.

"I love coach Rathman," Coffee said. "Not only was he a great player, he's a great coach. There's a respect level that makes it easier to go out and play for him. He not only did it (play in the NFL), he did it well. He's a good guy as well, so it helps."

At least one of Rathman's former teammates is not at all surprised he transitioned to coaching so naturally.

"You could see Tom always had the makings of a coach," former 49ers tackle Harris Barton said. "He was a natural, no question. You see a guy that understands the big picture. I'm really surprised Tom isn't a head coach in college."

At least at the moment, Rathman is not on a career path toward anything other than coaching running backs for the 49ers. He likes where he is and what he's doing. He and his family (wife Holly and daughters Nicole, 22, Alexandra, 20, and Samantha, 17) live in the same house in Redwood Shores that Rathman bought as a player in 1987.

He's not going anywhere, at least not by choice.

"I've got 15 years' experience in the organization" as player and coach, Rathman said. "It was great coming in that front door, looking at the Super Bowl trophies. It's like coming home. You put your heart and soul into it."

Even as a player, Rathman was a student of the game and a vital member of San Francisco's back-to-back Super Bowl championshipsin the 1988 and '89 seasons with teammates such as Joe Montana, Jerry Rice, John Taylor, Roger Craig and Ronnie Lott.

"Knowledge is power," he said. "If you're a good, solid football player, knowing what the adjustments are on the field, it allows you to execute. That was one of my strengths - I considered myself a coach on the field."

Rathman and the 49ers got the better of his future boss, Mike Singletary, and the Bears in the NFC Championship game Jan. 8, 1989, as San Francisco left bitterly cold Chicago with a 28-3 win. The paths of the fullback and the linebacker did meet in the game.

"I had opportunities to block him," Rathman said. "We met. I knew who he was. I don't know if he knew me."

Now Rathman is on Singletary's staff, working a gig he hopes will lead to another Vince Lombardi Trophy some day.

"I would love to have an opportunity to win another Super Bowl, to get back to that game and be successful," he said. "I try to coach with passion. It's important to me."

Coach Rathman puts in longer hours at his job than fullback Rathman ever did at his. Rathman's wife, Holly, said her husband used to come home between 6 and 7 p.m. as a player, compared with 10:30-11 p.m. as a coach.

"It's definitely more time-consuming, more time-demanding," she said. "It's completely different as a player. Those days were physically tough on him, but as a family, it was nice to get him home at 6 or 7."

Running Backs Coach Tom Rathman Feature

Although he loves his job, Rathman said he's no NFL lifer in the making. He said he'd like to put in 15 years as an assistant coach, get his pension, and retire to enjoy life sans air horns, blocking sleds and film study.

"I have high hopes that will be the case," Holly Rathman said. "I really want there to be a time in our lives when we get to enjoy being together. That's our plan."

That will have to wait a while. The rookie Coffee needs work on picking up the blitz.

Rathman's harmless little mistake

As astute a player as Tom Rathman was in his time with the 49ers, he was not infallible. One of the fullback's rare fallible moments came on Jan. 22, 1989, in Super Bowl XXIII.

On the play that would win the game for the 49ers 20-16 over the Cincinnati Bengals, Rathman and halfback Roger Craig lined up incorrectly in a split, two-back set behind Joe Montana.

From the Cincinnati 10-yard line with time running out, Montana called "20 halfback curl, X-post." Rathman was supposed to line up on the right, or strong side, where the tight end was. Craig was supposed to be on the left.

Craig was supposed to run a curl pattern while Rathman's assignment was to go out on a swing route to draw coverage away and openup a passing lane for Montana.

Instead, Rathman lined up on the left and Craig the right - not that it made any difference ultimately. Montana threw a 10-yard pass to John Taylor on a short post route for the winning touchdown with 34 seconds left.

"Things happen for a reason," Rathman said. "We lined up in the wrong formation. We ended up switching without even knowing. Roger should have been on the open side. I should have been on the strong side with the tight end. (Instead) I'm on the weak side. I ran my swing route. If you look at it (on film), it pulled that defender out and it opened up a window for Joe Montana to throw to John Taylor."

49ers' Battle healthy and ready By Janie McCauley (AP), San Francisco Examiner

SANTA CLARA, CALIF. — Arnaz Battle survived when the San Francisco 49ers signed four-time Pro Bowl free agent Isaac Bruce before last season. Battle didn't budge when the team brought in Brandon Jones this offseason.

Battle has been a constant for San Francisco in an ever-changing receiving corps, a model of steadiness both in his play and his hard-nosed, do-anything attitude. Those are the kinds of players Mike Singletary likes to have, though there were questions whether Battle would stick around this time.

The 49ers have their most depth at wideout in the last decade, so Battle's status coming into his seventh training camp wasn't clear.

"Every year I feel like I'm fighting for a job," Battle said after a recent practice. "There's only so much I can control. I will continue to do what I do. I know my role on this team."

Now, things are a little different. He's worked his way up the depth chart. Jones is out until late September with a broken right shoulder and unsigned first-round pick Michael Crabtree is still a no-show, making Battle's veteran presence that much more important to an organization that's endured a franchise-worst six straight losing seasons.

Battle's been getting his share of work lately in camp, too.

He started the team's exhibition opener last week against Denver. The former college quarterback at Notre Dame took shotgun snapsWednesday morning in the Niners' version of the wildcat offense — or "Taser" as new offensive coordinator Jimmy Raye refers to itin his playbook.

"Steady, smart guy that can do a lot of things," Raye said. "He can handle the ball as a runner. He's a good intermediate-route,possession receiver and he's sneaky fast."

Battle is relieved to finally be healthy again. He finished last season on injured reserve with a fracture in his right foot that required surgery. He had two screws removed from the foot in the spring.

The seventh-year pro played just nine games in 2008, catching 24 passes for 318 yards while struggling with injuries. He re-aggravated his foot in a 34-13 home loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Oct. 26 in Week 8 and didn't play again.

In each of the previous two seasons, he started 15 of 16 games. He led the receivers in catches in 2006 and '07.

Battle had to play catch up this spring after the injury. He didn't take part in the team's offseason program or optional practices, so Raye is still learning about what Battle brings.

"We've been very pleased with what he's done," Raye said.

Battle knows his experience will help him get back in a hurry. He said he's smarter now, knows what to expect and how to react in a variety of situations.

"It's tough," he said. "I think it's even tougher when you take so much time off. Now being out on the field it's a lot of thinking. When you haven't played football in a while, it takes a while to get back into the groove. You're going to play a little slower. This training camp, each day I've gotten the feel of playing football and not really thinking as much and more reaction. That has helped me continue to play faster each day."

Battle was the 49ers' second-leading receiver when he got hurt and had played in 42 consecutive games. He also was occasionallyreturning kickoffs and punts while serving as San Francisco's No. 3 receiver in most offensive sets.

The 29-year-old Battle doesn't mind having to earn a spot this camp. He knows that's part of it in the NFL.

Aside from Bruce, Jason Hill, Josh Morgan, Dominique Zeigler and Micheal Spurlock have had their impressive moments in camp.

�For Battle, a big step is no longer worrying that he'll re-injure his foot while running a route. It still hurts at times, then at other times he doesn't feel it at all.

"For me it's just going out and trying to continue staying healthy, play at a high level and make plays when given the opportunity,"Battle said. "It's not going out there thinking, 'I can re-aggravate this foot.' Everything is healed up, everything is mended together and I'm ready to go out there and play football."

Bruce watches his mouth - carefully By John Crumpacker, San Francisco Chronicle

The sphinx speaks! Gather 'round.

Isaac Bruce, a man of few words who stands as a role model to men of few words everywhere, took a few minutes out of his Thursdayto talk about his 16th season in the NFL and his third game in two years against his former team, the St. Louis Rams, Sunday atCandlestick Park.

Bruce turns 37 next month but by all appearances has managed to stave off the ravages of time by simply taking care of his body. He's still a whippet-trim 188 pounds, and his average per catch of 14.7 yards this season is not far off his career figure of 14.9 per catch.

Isaac, what's your secret?

"I watch what I allow to come out of my mouth and what I allow to go into my mouth," Bruce said in what amounts to his dual philosophies of life and football. Pressed on the issue of diet, he said he avoids sugar.

In coordinator Jimmy Raye's run-first and pass-as-last-resort offense, Bruce has not had an abundance of chances through three games. However, he does lead all San Francisco wide receivers in catches with 10, although that is not saying much.

No 49ers wideout is among the top 58 receivers in the league. Tight end Vernon Davis is tied for 30th with 14 catches.

"I'm pleased with the progress," Bruce said. "I'm happy. I never was the type to be crying for the football. I'm happy."

Said receivers coach Jerry Sullivan, "Isaac is doing a good job. He really takes care of his body, and he's very professional. You can hardly get a word out of him, me included."

Raye said he has been "pleasantly surprised" at Bruce's ability to stretch the field on occasion. He had a 50-yard catch in the season opener at Arizona and a 28-yarder at Minnesota in which Bruce, after all these years, cut sharply to shake a defender to lengthen what had been a short route.

"I've been happy and pleased and pleasantly surprised, because I didn't really know what to expect, because I hadn't seen that much of him," Raye said. "He's a different player on game day."

"I don't believe I've slowed down to a point where I'm not productive," Bruce said. "I'd definitely retire before that happens. That comes from eating right and taking care of myself before games."

Bruce is working on the second year of a two-year contract with a base salary of $1.475 million. When former offensive coordinator Mike Martz was fired after the 2008 season, Bruce said he contemplated retiring. In the end, he decided to return to play in Raye's offense after looking into the coach's history in the league.

"I wanted to make sure I knew his philosophy, figuring out what (coaching) school he's from, (like) Ernie Zampese, Norv Turner. I found out. I was excited the number system of offense wouldn't change."

An understated aspect of Bruce's game is his ability to throw his 188 pounds at defenders when blocking. On Frank Gore's two longtouchdown runs against Seattle, Bruce was conspicuous in providing down-field blocks.

"I pride myself on that," Bruce said. "I've always considered myself a pretty good blocker. I always considered myself to be a team player. That's the way the wind is blowing with this offense."

Speaking to Rams beat writers Wednesday, Bruce acknowledged his role as a wide receiver in a running offense, even though the 49ers have 83 passing plays to 80 runs after three games.

"We are a team that likes to hand the ball off and get 10 guys involved in the running game," Bruce said. "If that opportunity comes up when we can push the ball down the field, we have players that can make plays."

Coffee adopts familiar no-nonsense approach By Matt Maiocco, Santa Rosa Press Democrat

SANTA CLARA — When 49ers coach Mike Singletary went to the NFL scouting combine in February, he kept his eyes peeled for a running back to complement workhorse Frank Gore.

Although the 49ers might have been on the lookout for a player who could provide a contrasting style, they ended up with a Gore-like player. And that certainly is not a bad thing.

Third-round pick Glen Coffee has exhibited a no-nonsense approach since joining the 49ers. It's the same kind of mentality Goreexhibits toward his job.

“I take the game seriously,” Coffee said. “But I keep it in perspective. I know I'm blessed to play the game, and I definitely don't believe in taking things half-heartedly. I think Frank and I have similar approaches, and I try to learn from him. He knows what it takes.”

The 49ers might have added their change-of-pace back after the draft when they signed rookie speedster Kory Sheets of Purdue as a free agent. But Coffee is the player who has clearly asserted himself as Gore's top backup with his decidedly un-rookie-like mind-set.

“He has really been exceptional for a rookie running back,” 49ers offensive coordinator Jimmy Raye said.

“I think he's way ahead of the curve in terms of his pass protection. It's unusual for a college back because they are not asked to protect much from the I-back position. He's a rugged player, he is mentally tough, he plays physical and rugged, and I think he has a bright future.”

Gore is a compact 5-foot-9, 217 pounds, while Coffee is a more angular 6-foot, 209. Both are powerful runners who generally makeone cut and head up the field.

Coffee played the entire first half of the 49ers' exhibition opener last week against the Denver Broncos with Singletary's decision to rest Gore. Coffee responded with 67 yards on 14 rushing attempts. He should also get a lot of action Saturday when the 49ers face the Raiders.

“I think what he has is vision and he has the ability to get fast in the hole,” Raye said. “I don't know that in a footrace that he would run that fast, but he has instincts and (a) second-level spurt that is a little bit unusual, uncanny.”

The 49ers believed it was imperative to add a young running back this season because of a returned emphasis on a power-running attack.

In 2006, Gore rushed for 1,695 yards on 312 rushing attempts — both franchise records. His production fell off the past two seasons, but he still became the only player in franchise history to eclipse 1,000 yards in three consecutive seasons.

Coffee was selected to replace veteran DeShaun Foster as the team's primary backup. The 49ers plan to use Coffee regularly to enable Gore to remain fresh. The 49ers had little confidence in Foster last season. He had just 21 rushing attempts over the first 12 games of the season before he was forced into action after an ankle injury limited Gore's play late in the season.

Coffee is expected to enter whenever Gore needs a breather.

Also, the 49ers are confident they will not have to alter their play-calling when Coffee is on the field.

“I'm very excited about what I saw from him,” Singletary said.

“He's really a tough runner. Glen is going to be a great addition to our football team. He really adds a lot to what we're trying to do.”

49ers' Singletary taps Davis' potential By Dan Brown, San Jose Mercury News

After Vernon Davis set career highs with 96 receiving yards and two touchdowns Sunday, coach Mike Singletary pulled the tight endaside.

"You can do more than that," Singletary told him.

"I know, coach," Davis replied. "I believe you."

Such lofty expectations are hardly new. They greeted Davis on the day he was drafted sixth overall in 2006. But for the first time in his career, Davis' production is matching his hype.

Heading into Sunday's home game against the St. Louis Rams, Davis leads the 49ers in catches (14), receiving yards (168) and receiving touchdowns (two). The only other NFL tight end to top his team in all three categories is Kellen Winslow of Tampa Bay.

And, in one of the more astonishing upsets of the early season, Davis' ego has gone down as his totals have shot up. He barely celebrated his touchdown catches against the Minnesota Vikings, staring at the crowd for a few seconds before trotting back to thesideline.

This from guy who used to celebrate a 6-yard gain as if it were the winning grab in the Super Bowl.

"You don't have time for all that foolishness and all the craziness," Davis said this week. "You gotta go. You've got plays that are waiting for you. Your teammates are waiting for you."

Davis' yardage total through three weeks more than doubles his previous best start. He had 83 yards through Week 3 in 2007. Thisseason, he ranks seventh among NFL tight ends, 8 yards ahead of Atlanta's Tony Gonzalez.

Davis held court for a handful of reporters after practice Wednesday, but they had to wait. After the final horn, as other players slogged toward the locker room, the tight end remained on the field to catch footballs shot out of a Jugs gun. He stood a few feet away from the machine and snared balls, sometimes one-handed, on a mostly empty field.

Davis' post-practice ritual is an attempt to improve his hands. He dropped more than his fair share of passes over his first three seasons. On Sunday, however, both of his touchdown catches came in heavy traffic. For his second score, a 20-yarder in the fourth quarter, Davis jumped between linebacker E.J. Henderson and free safety Madieu Williams to wrest the ball away.

"Like I told Shaun (Hill), anything he throws, I'm going to go get it," Davis said.

About the only thing Davis isn't catching this year is flak. Opponents keep trying to provoke him, to no avail. The taunt he gets most often revolves around whether Singletary is going to send him to the showers (as the coach did in a highly publicized dust-up lastseason).

In response, Davis smiles. "The minute you let them get under your skin," he said, "is the minute you get weak."

Hill has heard the verbal sparring this year and marvels at the restraint. "They're trying to get under his skin. He's just not allowing it at all," he said. "He's walking away from stuff. He's come a long ways."

In the 49ers' conservative, run-oriented offense, Davis has been a top passing target. He has been thrown to on 23 of the 49ers' 83 pass plays, 27.7 percent. A year ago, with Mike Martz as the offensive coordinator, Davis was targeted 9.6 percent of the time.

Davis insisted there is even more to come, which is why he didn't argue Sunday when Singletary pulled him aside for a postgame pep talk.

"Coach Singletary is probably the best thing that ever happened for me," Davis said. "Because no matter what you do, or no matterhow good you do it, he set the bar. "... Especially for me, he set the bar higher for me."

Vernon Davis Feature

�Davis' touchdown catch gave the 49ers the lead with 8:12 left, a bit of history that was eclipsed when Brett Favre connected on the game-winner with two seconds left.

Still, it marked the second time this season that Davis perked up when it counted. In the 49ers' opening game against Arizona, Hillconnected with Davis four times on the game-winning, 15-play drive.

Even a year ago, the notion of Davis as a go-to guy would have seemed preposterous. But, after more than three years of flickering, the light bulb might finally be on.

"When you first come in here, you try to find yourself. Not just as a player, but as a person," Davis said. "And when you develop as a person, you fine-tune yourself, and you figure out that, hey, it's not just about you, it's about the team. And that's what I understand."

49ers notes: Davis has gone from doghouse to captaincy By Matt Maiocco, Santa Rosa Press Democrat

SANTA CLARA — Responding to some taunts from Seattle safety Brian Russell during a midseason game last year, 49ers tight end Vernon Davis gave the veteran a shove to the facemask.

A penalty flag came out for unnecessary roughness, and nothing has ever been the same.

Mike Singletary, in his first game as 49ers coach after taking over for fired Mike Nolan, did not appreciate how Davis responded to the coach's sideline authority.

He banished Davis to the locker room for the remainder of the fourth quarter.

It could have been the end of Davis with the 49ers. But when the 49ers play the Seahawks again on Sunday at Candlestick Park, Davis will be wearing a “C” on his uniform as one of the team's six captains.

Although Russell is now with the Jacksonville Jaguars, Davis figures there will be plenty of Seahawks players ready to pick up the slack.

“I'm sure they're going to try to do something to get me fired up and get me go back to the locker room,” Davis said. “But it ain't happening. I plan on playing with discipline. They will not get to me. There's nothing they can do to get me fired up.”

The 49ers had eight more games last season after the incident in which Singletary sent Davis off the field. Davis said in each of those games he heard taunts from opposing players.

“They'd tell me, ‘Vernon, go to the locker room,'” Davis said. “It didn't get to me. People still say it. I just laugh. I go on about my business.”

Davis said it was implausible to think after that game against the Seahawks last season that he would transform himself into one of Singletary's favorites on the team. But Singletary put a lot of responsibility on Davis with his appointment as a team captain.

“It means I'm a leader and a lot of people are looking at me and seeing how I'm doing,” Davis said. “They expect me to step up, which I will every game.”

Vernon Davis emerges as leader in 49ers locker room By Dan Brown, San Jose Mercury News

Visit with 49ers helped Warner see the lightIn identifying some of his locker room leaders on offense, Mike Singletary ran through a familiar list Wednesday.

Shaun Hill. Isaac Bruce. Eric Heitmann. Vernon Davis.

Wait a minute. Vernon Davis?

The same player who once inspired an "I want winners!" rant and was banished to the sideline is now in a player to emulate?

"I've noticed more confidence, more leadership, and I think better expectations in terms of who they are and what they can do,"Singletary said, in explaining his selections.

Davis, now in his fourth season, was happy to hear his name on the list. "That definitely means a lot, coming from a Hall of Fame player," he said. "He's always getting on me for everything, but I think Singletary is always right. That's why I trust him.

"I'm just grateful that I have somebody around to push me."

As if to demonstrate his newfound maturity, Davis refused to take the bait when a reporter goaded him with quotes from Arizona Cardinals safety Adrian Wilson.

Earlier in the day, Wilson had been asked about Davis and responded with, "Who?" It was Wilson's way of saying he didn't want totalk about individual matchups, but when the story was relayed to Davis, it was portrayed as a slight.

No matter. Davis took the high road.

"I'm sure Adrian Wilson knows who I am. We've met several times," he said. "I'm just going to go out there and compete. He's a good player."

Teamwork boosts 49ers' defense By Matt Barrows, Sacramento Bee

SANTA CLARA -- To lunge or not to lunge? That is the question that runs through a defensive lineman's mind as he watches a running back move along the line of scrimmage searching for the right hole to attack.

The answer is not as simple as it seems. Sure, it's tempting a tackle for a loss would be cause for celebration. But in the 49ers' defense, the risk of getting out of position usually outweighs the reward of a big individual play.

"All running backs can make those jump cuts," right defensive end Justin Smith said. "You have your Adrian Petersons and StevenJacksons the list goes on and on. If you jump into the linebacker's gap to stop him and that running back shoots through your gap,that's a 70-yard play. That's huge."

Smith and his defensive mates have been more concerned about collective glory than individual triumphs this season. And they insist it's the reason they enter today's game against Atlanta with the NFL's No. 6-ranked defense.

"These guys don't care who gets the credit," coach Mike Singletary said. "You don't have guys arguing about, 'Now, wait a minute, I got that sack.' You don't hear that.

"These guys are excited, they play together, they get along together, they sit in a room together and talk about the game plan."

In the defensive meeting room, coaches tell their players that the opposition always will dictate who makes a tackle. The trick is remaining disciplined and trusting that your teammates will be where they are supposed to be.

Along the defensive line, the goal is to funnel a running back into a linebacker's waiting arms. That begins with the nose tackle, Aubrayo Franklin, who coaches and players alike say is having the best season of his career.

"He's played very well, and he's considered by me to be one of the better nose tackles in the league," said defensive coordinator Greg Manusky.

Added Smith: "There are few guys on the D-line that understand the D-line inside and out where your help is, where the other 10 guys are going. When you get a guy that not only understands his job but what his job is inside the framework of the defense, he can really exploit and make plays, and that's what Aubrayo is doing."

That the 49ers are in the third year of Manusky's defense also is a big advantage. All defensive players must know where their teammates are going to be. That's more difficult for defensive linemen because everyone else is behind them. Playing in the samesystem has established a familiarity that is beginning to pay off.

"Up front, you have to know what those other guys are doing," Smith said. "It's almost like a quarterback throwing an out route before a guy breaks."

In their last two games, the 49ers have faced two running backs the Vikings' Peterson and the Rams' Jackson who rank in the top five in rushing yards. But they weren't burned by either.

They are giving up 73.8 rushing yards a game, fourth in the league. The defense also has yet to give up a rushing touchdown. Only one other team, the Vikings, can say that this season.

The Falcons would like nothing better than to break that streak today.

They have a running back, Michael Turner, who finished second in the league in rushing yards last season but who has yet to get on track in 2009. Like Peterson and Jackson, Turner has an impressive combination of speed and size he's listed at 256 pounds and the 49ers know that stopping him will be a group effort.

"Our big thing in San Diego was one guy wasn't going to take Michael Turner down," said linebacker Marques Harris, a teammate ofTurner's with the Chargers. "Just like it's been in the past few weeks, it's going to be another test for our defense. We've been facing all these great backs three in a row now."

49ers' stout defense a team effort By Dan Brown, San Jose Mercury News

This was Oct. 3, 1999, after yet another lopsided Cincinnati Bengals defeat. As the linebacker wept, defensive coordinator DickLeBeau put an arm around his shoulder.

"I want you to understand this," LeBeau told him. "I don't care how great you are as a player. You will never reach your potential until you get other great players around you."

Spikes recounted that scene last week, nearly 10 years to the day of the original speech. It's happening now, he said. The 49ers rank sixth in the NFL in defense thanks to a depth chart that is actually deep.

They're doing it with one full-fledged superstar — linebacker Patrick Willis — and a supporting cast that, as LeBeau might say, is letting him reach his potential.

"We have backup guys on this team that can be damn near Pro Bowlers somewhere else, guys that other teams would love to have," Spikes said.

Entering today's home game against Atlanta the 49ers are allowing only 13.3 points per game — second in the NFL. (Denver is first at 6.5.) A week ago, they registered their first shutout in 119 games.

The 49ers rank fourth against the rush, 10th against the pass and — surprise — are tied for sixth in sacks.

"The No. 1 thing that I see in this defense is unselfishness," coach Mike Singletary said. "These guys don't care who gets the credit. You don't have guys arguing about, 'Now, wait a minute, I got that sack.' You don't hear that.

"So that lets me know right now that we are going to have a great defense. How great? Some guys just have to continue to mature and get there. But it's coming."

By all accounts, the poster boy for players who never actually will appear on a poster is Aubrayo Franklin, the grunt-loving nose tackle. Franklin is listed at 6-foot-1, 317 pounds, which is slightly undersized for his position, but he finds a way to eat up blockers at the point of attack.

As Franklin devours the middle of the line, linebackers swoop in to do the glamour job.

"He keeps showing up," Spikes said. "He might not make the tackle, but he's going to make the play indirectly for somebody else to make the play."

Defensive coordinator Greg Manusky went a step further, saying: "The last four weeks, he has to be considered to be one of the better nose tackles in the league."

Franklin, in his seventh NFL season, said he models his game after former Ravens teammate Kelly Gregg, a 6-foot, 315-pound grinder who worked his way off the practice squad to become a longtime starter.

Doesn't Franklin want at least a little credit?

"I've got two great linebackers playing behind me," he said. "If those guys can run free to make tackles, we're going to win a lot of games."

A key against Atlanta will be stopping Michael Turner, who rushed for 1,699 yards and 17 touchdowns a year ago and whose legs will be fresh coming off a bye week.

But as Adrian Peterson and Steven Jackson would attest, the 49ers are tough to run against. The 49ers are allowing just 73.8 yards per game on the ground. Only Baltimore (59.5), Miami (61.0) and Pittsburgh (61.5) are better.

The 49ers have given up only seven runs of 10 yards or more this season, sixth best in the league. They have allowed only nine firstdowns on the ground all season, second to Miami's eight.

"One of the reasons we're playing good ball is everybody gets it," Spikes said. "We're not having guys out there with a bunch ofmental errors. Once you have a group of guys who understand what's going on, it makes it easy as a team."

Perhaps most surprisingly, the 49ers are even pressuring quarterbacks. They rank second in the NFC with 11 sacks, and they're coming from everywhere: Willis (2.5), Ray McDonald (two), Franklin (one), Dashon Goldson (one), Parys Haralson (one), Mark Roman (one), Justin Smith (one), Spikes (one) and Manny Lawson (0.5).

After finally settling into their 3-4 defense, the 49ers are blitzing more often — and with more creativity.

"The idea is when you're playing this type of defense, they don't have an idea where you are coming from," Spikes said. "They don't know if it's the inside guys that are coming or the outside guys that are coming."

The 49ers are on pace for 44 sacks, which would be their highest total since registering 51 in 1998. All of it is helping to bail out an offense that has sputtered out of the gate.

"In the past we had a lot of individual guys that had talent to make plays," Goldson, the free safety, said. "But now it's like everybody knows where we have to be and we understand the defense a lot more. It's coming together because we believe."

Simple defense brings some smashing results By John Crumpacker, San Francisco Chronicle

(10-05) 20:15 PDT -- It's amazing what a return to simplicity has done for the 49ers' defense.

When Mike Singletary became interim head coach midway through the 2008 season, he and defensive coordinator Greg Manusky ditched the alternating defensive fronts and various substitution packages and went with a straight 3-4 approach.

Players flourished under the Keep It Simple, Stupid (not to suggest the players were stupid, of course) dictum and ended the seasonranked 13th in the league in total defense.

After four games this season, the most recent a 35-0 blanking of the Rams, the 49ers are sixth in total defense, fourth against the run and 12th against the pass. San Francisco has allowed 53 points, second-fewest in the NFL after Denver's ridiculous 26. That's aDenver defense under coordinator Mike Nolan, former 49ers head coach.

"This is probably the most fun I've had since my Buffalo days," said linebacker Takeo Spikes, who was with the Bills from 2003 through '06. "There's so much love in this locker room. It's not an environment where you're walking on eggshells. When it's time to work, it's time to work. When it's time to play, go play. As long as you know where the line is between the two, there's no problem."

The only line this defense is crossing is the line of scrimmage to make sacks and tackles for losses. The 49ers have 11 sacks and 23 tackles for losses. Five of those sacks and seven of what are abbreviated TFL came Sunday against the Rams.

"They're working hard at it," Manusky said. "I think the guys are comfortable in the defense. They've been running it the last couple years, playing hard, playing fast, playing physical."

The result was the first shutout by a San Francisco defense since the last game of the 2001 season, a stretch of 115 games.

"There's a bunch of guys that don't want to let each other down," outside linebacker Parys Haralson said. "When you're out there, you play for each other, for your team. Everyone is trying to contribute to help the team win. You can split a tackle 11 ways - everyone wants to be in on it."

Manusky's defense is working at all levels, although a cynic might point to the Nov. 1 game against Peyton Manning and the Colts to get a truer read on the 49ers.

The front five, centered by nose tackle Aubrayo Franklin and including outside 'backers Haralson and Manny Lawson, is holding thepoint against the run. Spikes is having an excellent season at age 32. His running mate Patrick Willis is simply the best linebacker in the game, and getting better.

With the possible exception of Antoine Winfield of the Vikings, there isn't a better tackling cornerback in the NFL than Nate Clements. Strong safety Michael Lewis is coming off his best game of the season, described by Singletary as "great." Free safetyDashon Goldson is blossoming in his first year as a starter.

"Everyone trusts each other to do their job," Haralson said. "Anytime you're out there playing good football, it's always fun. You get that extra boost of energy."

Or, as defensive tackle Isaac Sopoaga said, "It's awesome great."

49ers' Franklin excelling, two plays at a time By Matt Maiocco, Santa Rosa Press Democrat

SAN FRANCISCO — When 49ers nose tackle Aubrayo Franklin is replaced on third downs, it's a sure sign the man is doing something right.

If Franklin succeeds, his reward is to hustle to the sideline after a job well done. Ray McDonald takes Franklin's place along the 49ers' defensive line in passing situations.

It's the anomaly of Franklin's position. If he falters, he remains on the field. If he's doing his job perfectly, he is often replaced after only two snaps.

“You can say that,” said Franklin, who has been doing his dirty-work job with aplomb and was perhaps the 49ers' most vital defensive performer through the first four games of the season.

Franklin will have to be at the top of his game again today when the 49ers face the Atlanta Falcons at Candlestick Park. He will line up across from Falcons center Todd McClure, who has gone more than seven full NFL seasons without missing a start.

After doing a good job controlling the line of scrimmage against two of the league's top running backs, Minnesota's Adrian Peterson and St. Louis' Steven Jackson, the 49ers' run defense faces another test.

Atlanta running back Michael Turner, who gained 1,699 rushing yards with 17 touchdowns a year ago, is today's target.

“The competition is always good,” Franklin said. “We take it as a challenge to try to hold guys under 100 yards. We try to get in those third-and-long situations.

“If we can hold them running and get in third-and-long situations, we have a pretty good chance to get off the field.”

Thanks, in part, to Franklin's play, the 49ers' defense has been successful. In fact, San Francisco ranks second in the league in first-down defense, surrendering just 4.07 yards on that down.

The New York Jets lead the league with a 3.92 average on first downs. It's probably no coincidence that the Jets have 350-pound nose tackle Kris Jenkins in the middle of their line.

Franklin ranks seventh on the 49ers with 19 tackles, including 3½ for loss, according to the coaches' review of game film. He also has one sack, matching a career high he attained two previous times in his seven-year career.

No, Franklin is not exactly a sack artist, and that helps explain why he exits the field on third down. His value to the 49ers is not measured in individual numbers — except for his importance in assisting inside linebackers Patrick Willis and Takeo Spikes as theystack up tackles.

Perhaps the biggest role Franklin has on offense is to hold his ground in the middle of the line and tie up the center, and even an occasional guard — to prevent them from making blocks on the 49ers' linebackers.

“He's playing very well,” 49ers defensive coordinator Greg Manusky said of Franklin. “The last four weeks he's played very well. He's considered, to me, to be one of the better nose tackles in the league.”

Franklin is listed at 317 pounds, which is not considered big for a person who lines up over the center in a 3-4 defense. Franklin's strengths are his use of technique and quickness.

It's no coincidence Franklin's play dramatically improved in the second half of last season after the 49ers focused on using a three-man defensive front on first and second downs.

“I don't think he was a weak link,” Manusky said. “There were certain situations where we were subbing and all that kind of stuff. Now, we're just playing our base stuff and rolling with it. And he's feeling comfortable with it and doing a great job.”

Nose tackle is one of the NFL's best By John Crumpacker, San Francisco Chronicle

(10-09) 18:42 PDT -- Nose tackles tend to get lost in the chaos of the trenches but their jobs are vital to the success of their defenses. Aubrayo Franklin's job for the 49ers is to hold point and occupy the center, if not one of the guards as well, so inside linebackers Patrick Willis and Takeo Spikes can make the tackles and get all the credit.

But this season, Franklin's stats stand on their own heading into Sunday's game against Atlanta at Candlestick Park. He has ninetackles, 3 1/2 for losses, and one precious sack.

"He is having a great season. Best nose guard in the league," defensive end Justin Smith said.

Asked why Franklin is the best at his position, Smith said firmly, "Because he is. Tape don't lie. When I say he's the best nose guard in the league, he's the best nose guard in the league."

OK, then.

In his six previous years in the NFL, the squat (6-foot-1, 317 pounds) Franklin never had more than one sack for a full season. Having one this early has Franklin enthused.

"I try to get a push when I can to help the guys on the outside," he said. "Nose tackles don't get too many sacks. I count it as a blessing."

Franklin's 3 1/2 tackles for losses indicate he's not only getting a good push off the ball but he's shedding blockers and getting in the backfield to stop plays before they start.

"He's having a heck of a season," defensive coordinator Greg Manusky said. "He's been controlling the center. That's a position that's a focal point in any 3-4 defense. He takes the challenge - not only making tackles but keeping guys off Pat and Takeo."

Franklin, 29, came to the 49ers in 2007 from Baltimore, where he got his NFL start under then-Ravens defensive coordinator MikeNolan, who eventually became his head coach in San Francisco.

"The last couple years he's taken his play to a whole other level," coach Mike Singletary said. "He's asking coaches, 'How do I be great?' When you get a guy that's willing to take the time and sacrifice as much as he has in the off-season, you're going to have a good player. He's doing great."

Franklin had some calf and knee injuries his first two seasons with the 49ers and he was playing heavy at 330 pounds. An off-season working with a trainer in Atlanta trimmed his robust build to 315 pounds and, while he'll never wear a tutu, Franklin is lighter on his feet this season and making plays.

"It's always good when you're feeling healthy," he said. "You can play at a high level. I'm just having fun this year. I got two good linebackers playing behind me. If they can run and make tackles, we're going to win games."

In a 3-1 start to the season, the 49ers are ranked sixth in total defense, fourth against the run and 10th against the pass. Their 13.3 points allowed per game is second in the NFL after Denver's 6.5.

It's important to remember that while Singletary and Manusky are getting the most out of this defense, Nolan was responsible forbringing nine of the current starters and four top reserves to San Francisco.

And Franklin is one of those nine, right in the center of all that traffic. To survive, he said he studies film and tries to play technically sound.

"I'm pretty big on my technique," Franklin said. "I learned that at Baltimore (from 2003-06) when I watched Kelly Gregg. He isn't the biggest guy (either). There's competition every week in the NFL. We take it as a challenge on the defensive line to hold guys to under 100 yards (rushing).

Matthew Barrows: It's shades of 2006 for Gore By Matt Barrows, Sacramento Bee

SAN FRANCISCO – Frank Gore dedicated his offseason to recapturing his 2006 form. So when his Week 1 statistics ended up resembling one of 2007's frustrating efforts, Gore became worried, picked up a phone and dialed his offensive coordinator.

It didn't matter that it was 2 a.m. and that Jimmy Raye, 63, was asleep.

"He was feeling bad," Raye said Sunday. "He wanted to know if he was missing some holes. Like most great runners do, he felt badthat he didn't have the kind of opening-day performance I think that he had anticipated, and so he just wanted someone to hug, rub and lie to him."

Raye gave his running back the nurturing he needed. But he didn't lie. In fact, you could argue that Raye actually may have undersold his assurances.

Because 2006 returned with a vengeance for Gore during Sunday's 23-10 win over the Seattle Seahawks, right down to the opponenthe left in his dust. Gore had some nice games early that season, but the biggest came Nov. 19 at home against the Seahawks, when he ran for a career-high 212 yards.

Gore came within five yards of that total Sunday. The biggest difference was that while Gore was caught from behind on his long runs in 2006, he found the end zone this time. Twice.

On the first touchdown, a 79-yard run in the first quarter, Gore used the video screen in the north end zone to make sure he stayed ahead of his pursuers. It was the longest of his career, but it didn't take long to top it. He ran 80 yards on the first play of the second half.

Gore wasn't the only one looking to make amends.

While the defense enjoyed a week's worth of accolades for its performance against Kurt Warner and the Arizona Cardinals' receivers,the offensive line was experiencing Mike Singletary's wrath on the other side of the locker room.

Publicly, Singletary said his linemen got their "tails kicked" in Arizona, and he was more direct behind closed doors. The message:You have one of the best running backs in the league behind you. Just give him an opening.

The two linemen who struggled the most in that game were left guard David Baas and right tackle Adam Snyder. In fact, Snyder platooned with newly signed Tony Pashos at right tackle throughout Sunday's game.

It was Snyder, however, who was on the field for Gore's long runs. On the first, he sealed off the edge while Baas pulled on the play and delivered the block that sprang Gore. That play was a favorite in 2006 when Norv Turner was the offensive coordinator.

"It was the same play in '06 – the counter," Gore said afterward.

That's no coincidence. When Singletary went looking for a new offensive play-caller during the offseason, he also wanted to step back into 2006. He couldn't get Turner, San Diego's head coach, so he found the next-best thing.

Raye hails from the same Don Coryell coaching tree, has coached on the same staffs as Turner and consulted Turner before acceptingthe 49ers' job offer.

The 49ers won five of their last nine in 2006. At the time, the thinking was that if they could just carry that momentum into the following season, they'd be a contender in the NFC West.

That dream has been deferred for two seasons. But after Sunday's victory, Gore and the 49ers finally seem to be back on track.

Gore loves the grunt work By Matt Maiocco, Santa Rosa Press Democrat

NAPA — Over the past three seasons, 49ers running back Frank Gore has rushed for 3,833 yards and caught a team-high 157 passes.

That’s the easy part of his job, Gore said Tuesday.

“In this league, anybody can run the ball and catch the ball,” Gore said. “Coach (Tom Rathman) really coaches us up. He tells us, ‘I want tough guys.’”

Gore demonstrated his toughness within moments of the opening bell of the 49ers’ first of four practices with the Raiders. In a one-on-one blitz pickup drill, Gore locked up with Raiders fourth-year linebacker Ricky Brown and planted him on his back. Just a few moments later, Gore easily disposed of fifth-player player Kirk Morrison.

Uncharacteristically, Gore kept going at Morrison after the play’s conclusion. He had to be held back, and coach Mike Singletary had some words with his best offensive player.

“I told Frank I’ll put him on the bus if he does that again,” Singletary said. “But he did a nice job.”

Gore was in a feisty mood, all right. And Rathman liked what he saw.

“If you don’t have the willingness and the mean streak, it’s going to be tough to excel at that job as a pass blocker,” Rathman said. “And we’re trying to develop that here.”

Gore’s prowess as a playmaker is well-known, but he also takes a lot of pleasure in performing the duties that do not show up on his stat line.

“Frank is a guy who gets excited about what he’s doing,” Singletary said. “His heart, his emotion and his enthusiasm are what this game is all about.”

Gore’s enthusiasm and knowledge of the game leads 49ers general manager Scot McCloughan to believe Gore could easily become a scout once his playing career is over. McCloughan said he would not think twice about hiring Gore as a talent evaluator.

And Gore said he continues to learn the finer points of the game from Rathman, who played on two Super Bowl champions and sevendivision winners in eight seasons with the 49ers.

“I think I have been a good blocker,” Gore said. “But I didn’t know how easy it can be. It’s all about angles and small things. Coach Rathman has really helped us a lot.”

Gore said he was especially geared up for the beginning of practice Tuesday. He has not missed a day of practice this summer, but Singletary decided to hold him out of the 49ers’ first exhibition game Friday against the Denver Broncos. Gore said he was eager to get his first shot at playing against another team — even if it was just in practice.

“I love what I’m doing,” Gore said.

Gore said the blitz pickup drill is a one-on-one encounter that greatly favors the linebacker. After all, there are few blocking options available to the running backs during practice because of safety concerns.

“It’s tough,” he said. “It’s more of a linebacker drill. You can’t cut. In a game you can mess with their head.”

Still, Gore did plenty of messing with the heads of the Raiders linebackers. Gore checks in at 5-foot-9, 217 pounds, while Brownweighs 235 and Morrison is listed at 240. Yet, Gore had manhandled the larger men. As Gore next lined up to face Raiders rookielinebacker David Nixon, Rathman pulled Gore out of the drill. He had seen enough.

And so had Singletary, who said he was joking about sending Gore home after his enthusiastic blocking display.

Inman: Reunited and it feels so good for 49ers' Gore and Norris By Cam Inman, San Jose Mercury News

RUNNING BACK Frank Gore and fullback Moran Norris comprise the 49ers' most important tandem for this coming season.

Not quarterbacks Shaun Hill and Alex Smith.

Not new wide receiver Michael Crabtree and whoever starts at quarterback.

Not linebackers Patrick Willis and Manny Lawson.

Not coach Mike Singletary and the microphone.

Because Gore's hard-nosed running will embody the 49ers' tougher approach, he personally requested that Norris return from a one-year hiatus and serve as his lead blocker.

"I love it," Gore said of his reunion with Norris, a nine-year veteran who spent last year with the winless Detroit Lions. "We came up together (with the 49ers in 2006-07). We were both on the second team and we both worked our way up to be top dogs.

"I know what he'll do on the field with his blocking. I can just go."

Gore went upstairs to the 49ers brass this winter in hopes of reversing a trend that saw his production and carries drop for a secondstraight year. He went from 1,695 yards and 312 carries in 2006, to 1,102-260 in 2007, to 1,036-240 in 2008.

"I'm ready to get back to being one of the top in the league. I asked the coach and the organization if I could bring Moran back," Gore said. "We have a coordinator (Jimmy Raye) who wants to run the ball. We've got a head coach who talks about being physical and taking it to the other team. I'm with that."

"I'm glad to be back here with Frank and ready to get this rolling," said Norris, a Houston native, as is Singletary.

The Gore-Moran bond reminds running backs coach Tom Rathman of the stellar tandem he once coached here in Garrison Hearst and Fred Beasley, tight buddies who helped key the 49ers' last NFC West title run in 2002.

Gore-Norris showed its potential in 2006. That's when Gore, in his first season as the starter, rushed for a franchise-record 1,695 yards. He then headed for his first Pro Bowl, but not before rewarding Norris by paying his way to Hawaii, too.

Norris didn't fit Mike Martz's 2008 scheme with the 49ers — did anyone? — and was cut loose. He needs to seize this second chance with the 49ers, or Zak Keasey might be starting at fullback.

It wasn't by accident that, on the first play of Friday's 11-on-11 drills at minicamp, Gore and Norris sprung into action. Smith took that first snap — perhaps a good sign for him in the quarterback competition — and handed off to Gore, who followed Norris up the middle.

"I know I can rely on my running back, that he's going to follow me," Norris said. "If he doesn't follow me, he must have seen something different, and I don't question it. We have a trust in each other."

Their bond extends off the field as they train together in the offseason, rotating from Gore's home in Miami to Norris' in Houston. Gore, in what's become an annual ritual, will partake in Norris' youth football camp June 20-21 in Houston.

As Gore and Norris sat on a bench after practice, 49ers general manager Scot McCloughan sauntered by, smiled and said: "Hey, thetwo bangers. I like it."

That's right, the 49ers expect to bang their way back to contention. Gore envisions himself as a 1,400-yard-plus running back.

Frank Gore & Moran Norris Feature

�"I want to be the one everyone talks about," Gore said. "... This year, is more of power-ball football. Downhill. Downhill. We're just going at them."

Left tackle Joe Staley is all for that, describing how the 49ers' style will be "power running between the offensive tackles as opposed to outside running all the time."

Staley said Gore's power-running style is not just elite, that his patience and the way he hits holes is "not matched in the NFL." Gore, in a related note, respectfully talked Friday about how he looks up to and watches film of the San Diego Chargers' LaDainian Tomlinson.

Asked who is the lead blocker for Minnesota Vikings star Adrian Peterson, Gore replied: "Those big boys up front."

Well, Gore has big boys of his own, and it will be up to them — and definitely Norris — to open running lanes for this season tosucceed.

49ers' Haralson deserved his bonus By Gwen Knapp, San Francisco Chronicle

"I forget, think I just saw the check stub," he said. "It was exciting, though."

At that point, Haralson was only three weeks away from signing a four-year contract extension with the 49ers for much bigger money - reportedly $15 million with $6.5 million guaranteed. The team knew it had found something special, a dangerous pass rusher whodidn't enter the league on a red carpet, in a downpour of dollar bills.

Haralson arrived in the fifth round of the 2006 draft, the same one in which Houston passed on Reggie Bush, the Heisman Trophy winner and reputed Barry Sanders clone, to take defensive end Mario Williams with the No. 1 pick. Contract considerations mighthave dictated the Texans' decision, but it also adhered to an NFL commandment: When in doubt while selecting a top draft choice, go with a pass rusher. The most recent draft yielded 11 players who could be characterized as pass rushers among the 32 first-roundpicks.

By the time teams reach the fifth round, the most promising pass rushers should be gone. Haralson was still there, a Tennessee defensive end who would convert to outside linebacker in the pros.

"You could always tell he had a little chip on his shoulder because he went in the fifth round," inside linebacker Takeo Spikes said, half-approvingly.

"He was pretty intense, and he'd get into a lot of fights. But Singletary put a stop to that."

When he became head coach in October, Mike Singletary - with the cooperation of defensive coordinator Greg Manusky - also put astop to the hybrid defense, shifting between a 4-3 and 3-4, that prevailed under Mike Nolan. The defense would become a 3-4, andHaralson would be a full-time starter. He finished with eight sacks in 10 starts, ranking him in a tie for 17th in the NFL.

Among the 16 players ahead of him, there were three other fifth-round picks and the famously undrafted terror in Pittsburgh, JamesHarrison. Everyone else went higher in the draft, and nine were first- or second-round picks.

In Sunday's opener against Arizona, Haralson proved that 2008 hadn't been a fluke and that he hadn't settled into contentment becauseof his raise. He registered one sack and disrupted the Cardinals' offense as much as any 49er did. Justin Smith and Manny Lawson also applied a lot of pressure, but Haralson appeared to be the MVP of the day.

"He's always asking questions about how he can get better, what does he need to do?" Singletary said, explaining Haralson's development. "He's always trying to work his hands. He's always trying to work his eyes, all of the little things that make guys on the outside special."

Asked whether he had leaned on management to move forward on Haralson's contract extension, the coach said everyone already understood his value. "That's probably one of the last guys that I had to say, 'I want this guy,' " Singletary said. "Because everything that we talk about, that's what Parys Haralson is. That's quite conspicuous."

The 49ers wisely have established a pattern of offering contract extensions to young players who prove themselves, rather than allowing them to near the end of their rookie deals and start looking at other options. It's a smart business decision, and addresses the morale problem of underpaying a high performer simply because he was underestimated on draft day.

The NFL bonus pool, on a small scale, tries to achieve the same thing. If a lower-paid player takes more snaps than his salary properly rewards, a formula set by the collective-bargaining agreement adjusts the pay. Earning a relatively modest $445,000 in 2008, Haralson absolutely deserved the bump in pay.

As soon as he moved into another sphere financially, Haralson splurged on a long-held dream. He bought a house for his mother, Jennifer Rosell, in Madison, Miss., just 15 minutes from Flora, where he grew up.

"Coming from where I came, that's the first thing you do if you can," he said. "You take care of the person who took care of you."

The 49ers, when they handed over his contract papers, must have been thinking the same thing.

Hill returns to where he began By John Crumpacker, San Francisco Chronicle

It's fair to say Shaun Hill does not have a scrapbook overflowing with clippings from his glory years with the Minnesota Vikings.

There weren't any - clippings, that is. There were years, though, four of them, spent as Minnesota's No. 3 quarterback behind startersDaunte Culpepper and Brad Johnson and occasionally Gus Frerotte.

"I learned a lot just sitting back watching," Hill said in confirming that he does, indeed, have memories of those Minnesota years. "I learned an awful lot my four years there. I learned something from all those guys. They were very gracious offering up their help to me."

The sum total of Hill's playing time as a Viking from 2002-2005 was two kneel-downs in a 2005 end-of-season victory over Chicagothat Johnson started.

"I got credit for two rushes for minus 2 yards," Hill recalled.

Then-coach Mike Tice wanted to get Johnson out of the game to applause from the home fans at the Metrodome, so he sent Hill in.

In his naivete, Hill thought the cheers were for him as he trotted onto the field. Silly boy.

"I came running in and the crowd cheered," he said. "I thought it was for me but it was for him."

Hill won't hear any cheers today as he returns to the Metrodome as the 49ers' quarterback with a 9-3 record in games he's started.What he will hear is the cacophony that greets opposing offenses, making it all but impossible for linemen to hear snap counts andsignals being called.

"This is a big game for us," Hill said. "They're expected to be one of the powerhouses of the NFC. We're excited for the opportunity and challenge. It is a challenge when you're on the road, especially at an indoor facility where the crowd gets rowdy."

After his four-year internship in Minnesota, Hill was signed by the 49ers in 2006, another no-play season for this most patient man. Hill played in three games in '07, started two and won two as a harbinger for his 2008 season, when he posted a 5-3 record in thesecond half of the year.

It was that half-season body of work that ultimately convinced coach Mike Singletary to name Hill his starter over Alex Smith. A 2-0 start to 2009 indicates Singletary's confidence in Hill was justified.

Although Hill's passing stats overall are modest, he's been spot-on when it counts - on third down and in the fourth quarter. Hill is third in the league in third-down passing efficiency with a rating of 123.4, behind Eli Manning and Drew Brees but ahead of everyone else, including Peyton Manning, Brett Favre, Tom Brady, Philip Rivers and Kurt Warner. Hill is also 10th in fourth-quarter passing.

Hill even has a head-to-head victory over the man he will oppose Sunday, Favre. In a Dec. 7, 2008, game against the New York Jets,Hill hit on 28 of 39 passes for 285 yards and two touchdowns as the 49ers prevailed 24-14.

"It is amazing," Hill said of the soon-to-be 40-year-old Favre. "He is still playing, and at a high level. It's a total team sport. It's never me against Brett Favre, that's for sure."

It is one for the scrapbook, however. There is certainly room for it.

'Hank' Hill? Vikings recall him for his brain By Matt Barrows, Sacramento Bee

SANTA CLARA Flying back to Minnesota after road games in 2005, Vikings quarterbacks Shaun Hill and Brad Johnson always found two seats together and talked X's and O's until the plane was parked at the gate.

What was telling was that Johnson, a 13-year veteran at the time, would listen closely to what Hill would have to say. And Hill had never even taken a regular-season snap.

"I just thought that he had a feel for the game," Johnson said. "He would tell me what was the best play for me - in the red zone, on third and long. He knew football, and he loved it. He could see the big picture of what was going on."

Indeed, Hill's brain is the first thing former teammates and coaches cite when asked how the lightly regarded quarterback from Maryland stuck around for four seasons with the Vikings.

In 2002, Hill was perceived to be one of those quarterbacks who excel at the college level by pluck and force of will but who don't have the arm or athleticism to make it in the NFL.

He did have one thing going for him, however a connection.

Minnesota's coach at the time, Mike Tice, was a Maryland alumnus who watched Hill lead a middling Terrapins team to the Orange Bowl the year before. Tice and the Vikings outbid the Giants and Dolphins their offensive coordinator at the time, Norv Turner, also was fond of Hill and Hill joined them as an undrafted free agent.

"I thought he had a chance to be a No. 2, and I knew he'd be an excellent No. 3," said Tice, who is now the tight ends coach with Jacksonville.

At the time, Hill actually was the No. 5 quarterback behind Daunte Culpepper, Todd Bouman, Spurgeon Wynn and Romaro Miller. But Hill clung to a roster spot by making the most of his opportunities, even if they did all come in the fourth quarter of exhibition games.

"The biggest thing that pops out about Shaun is that he's very bright," Tice said. "He understands football. He understands where to go with the football, and he makes quick decisions. The second thing is that he's a better athlete than people think he is."

Tice said he'd often have Hill line up at tight end in practice and quickly discovered no one could cover him.

Recalled Hill: "My rookie year, I could never get a repetition in practice. I had to get on the field any way I could as a tight end, receiver, whatever."

The Vikings' roster that year included Culpepper, Randy Moss and Michael Bennett. Hill was so anonymous no one knew his real name. Bennett called him "Hank" after he arrived, and it stuck so well that over the next four seasons, it ceased to become a nickname. People on the team thought his name was Hank.

Why Hank?

"You know what, I don't know," Johnson said. "I guess he just looks like a Hank."

Following the 2005 season, when Hill knew he would be moving on, he wondered if his teammates knew his given name was actually Shaun. So he approached receiver Travis Taylor one day and asked if he knew his name.

Taylor looked at him earnestly and said, "Hank, right?"

Now Hank, er, Hill returns to the spot where his NFL career began, this time as a No. 1 quarterback who has won nine of the 12 contests he's started. There are new faces in Minnesota now, but the old ones are watching him closely.

This Hill stands tall By Matt Maiocco, Santa Rosa Press Democrat

MINNEAPOLIS — Shaun Hill does not mind blending into the background.

In fact, he is accustomed to it.

The first time he ran onto the field to participate in an NFL game, he was hardly noticed. Hill was in his fourth year with theMinnesota Vikings at the end of the 2005 season when he made his debut.

“It was the last game of the year. We played Chicago at home,” Hill recalls. “Brad Johnson finished out the year really strong for us. He went out of the huddle. I came running in so the crowd could give him a cheer, although I thought it was for me.

“I then took two knees.”

The Vikings showed no interest in re-signing Hill following the season. He was not exactly a hot commodity around the league, either.

But the 49ers called, and Hill eventually won a roster spot in 2006 as the No. 3 quarterback over Jesse Palmer.

Hill was in danger of becoming football’s version of Moonlight Graham until he was forced into the starting lineup at the end of the 2007 season. And he’s been winning games at a 75-percent clip ever since.

He takes his 9-3 record as a starter back to the Metrodome today in the only NFL game of the weekend featuring 2-0 teams. The 49ers face a stiff challenge in their bid to start a season with three consecutive victories for the first time since 1998.

And when asked what he believes he has to do to enable the 49ers to return with a victory, Hill answers, “Whatever it takes.”

He is considered the classic game manager. The 49ers want to run the football and play good defense. Therefore, Hill’s main responsibility is to avoid turnovers and other crippling mistakes.

Hill, who won the 49ers’ starting job in training camp over Alex Smith, has thrown for just 353 yards with one touchdown and nointerceptions in victories over the Arizona Cardinals and Seattle Seahawks to open the season. He has mostly been a bit player in the 49ers’ success.

Coach Mike Singletary was asked if Hill is capable of putting a team on his back and carrying it to a victory. His answer did not sound overly enthusiastic.

“Hopefully, we never have to ask him to do that,” Singletary said. “Hopefully we don’t have to have a quarterback here in a position to just take us and put us on his back and take us down the field.”

But Hill has shown himself to be fully capable of doing what’s necessary to pull out victories, too.

Even his fourth-quarter comebacks are understated. Three of the 49ers’ past four victories have included late Hill-produced drives that provided the winning points.

Dec. 21, 2008: Down 13 points in the fourth quarter, Hill talks Singletary out of a benching and then delivers a 48-yard touchdown pass to Josh Morgan with 1:22 remaining for a 17-16 victory at St. Louis.

Dec. 28, 2008: He drives the 49ers 51 yards in the final minute of the game, allowing Joe Nedney to kick a field goal with no time remaining for a 27-24 victory over Washington in the season finale.

Sept. 13, 2009: Hill engineers a 15-play, 80-yard drive in the fourth quarter, culminated with his 1-yard scoring pass to Frank Gore, as the 49ers open the season with a 20-16 victory over the Cardinals.

“I believe that what he’s doing right now has been good enough the first two games,” Singletary said. “Going forward, to start with,we’re going to run the ball. We’re going to have to run the ball, and as we run the ball and Shaun Hill makes some plays here andthere, and as he gets more comfortable, he can open it up a bit.”

Hill does not have a big ego. After all, he did not even attempt a pass in his teams’ first 92 NFL games, so he’s not complaining that the 49ers’ offense is focused on running back Frank Gore.

“We’ve been able to run the ball and that’s a good thing,” Hill said.

And he also does not have any concerns that the 49ers will be able to flip the switch and starting throwing the ball around the field if that’s what it takes to win a game.

“We practice all that stuff all the time,” he said.

Knapp: Hill a game manager - he manages to win By Gwen Knapp, San Francisco Chronicle

(09-21) 20:36 PDT -- For Brett Favre, the term "game manager" means a rebirth. In Minnesota, the three- time NFL MVP has transformed himself into a handoff specialist and short-yardage passer. He currently sits at the bottom of the league's stats in the category for completions of 20 yards or more. He has thrown only one, and it traveled 21 yards.

One other quarterback, the man who will oppose Favre on Sunday, shares the last spot on that list. But for Shaun Hill, the designation "game manager" carries none of the respect that it confers on Favre. It makes the 49ers' quarterback sound like a drone, a guy who has to clip on a name tag when he comes to work.

"I think it's kind of insulting to him because it makes him sound like all he has to do is go out there and not lose the game for us," tackle Joe Staley said. "But Shaun's a playmaker. He wins games for us."

There's no denying that, and yet people deny it. Hill's 9-3 record as an NFL starter comes with an asterisk. Somehow, his record has been deemed illegitimate, because nobody will ever gasp in awe when Hill throws a ball. It doesn't matter that he takes the breath away from defensive coordinators, whose schemes can't prevent the guy with the name tag from racking up another NFL win.

Where's the love? How can 9-3 not buy Hill more respect? Drew Brees is currently the quarterback equivalent of Tiger Woods at the 2000 U.S. Open, so far ahead of the field that his competitors can only laugh. Yet he is 7-5 over his past 12 games. Donovan McNabb is 8-3-1 in his past 12 regular-season starts. Philip Rivers is 6-6.

They all had continuity at their positions and decent teams around them. Hill's record has been built from a pile of rubble, in sporadic appearances over three seasons, with three different offensive coordinators drawing up plays. Still, no one really sees him as an asset. He's simply considered, as Staley observed, not a liability.

"Hopefully, we don't have to have a quarterback here in position to just take us and put us on his back and take us down the field,"Mike Singletary said when asked if Hill could carry the 49ers on his own, without a spectacular running game. "I believe that what he's doing right now has been good enough the first two games. ... As we run the ball and Shaun Hill makes some plays here and there and as he gets more comfortable, he can open it up a bit. That's what's going to have to start happening. I believe he will do that."

Hill already has done that. The 49ers won in Arizona because of Hill's arm. He did take the team downfield and win without support from the running game. He completed a 50-yard pass, connecting with Isaac Bruce. Hill led a comeback against St. Louis last year.

Singletary knows that very well - and he benefits every time an opponent discounts Hill, assuming that he is Frank Gore's valet. The real question should not be whether Hill can carry a team on his own, but whether he can do it when everyone in the stadium expects greatness from him.

Opponents see limits That question probably won't be answered for a long, long time. On video, opponents will see his limitations and fear nothing. Even Staley, perhaps Hill's most vocal supporter on the team, can't break down what exactly makes the quarterback a winner.

"I don't know," he said, laughing. He can explain certain skills - like finding secondary receivers - but he can't account for that 9-3 record, for what makes Hill more than a game manager. But Staley isn't a personnel director. He's a football player, in the huddle every week with Hill. ("I talk the most; he's second," Staley said.) He simply believes in the quarterback.

It helps that Hill lacks vanity. He likes to tell the media when he took a sack because he held the ball too long, instead of letting the offensive line get the blame. He has been sacked eight times, ranking him third in the NFL behind Aaron Rodgers and Brady Quinn.Hill also hasn't thrown an interception in the first two games, a stat that reinforces the game-manager label.

"I don't really know what it means," Hill said, politely ducking the question of whether the description fit him.

Well, right now, it means he has a lot in common with a three-time MVP. But with a 9-3 record, Hill deserves to be known as morethan a game manager. At the very least, he's a game executive.

Same old story for 49ers QB Hill: He isn't much to look at By Matt Barrows, Sacramento Bee

COLLEGE PARK, Md. – If Shaun Hill, the starting quarterback whom nobody seems to think is starting caliber, ever needs validation, he always can crack open the book given to him following his senior season at the University of Maryland.

The thick, leather-bound book contains all of his newspaper clippings from his time with the Terrapins. It's designed for nostalgia, a warm and fuzzy time capsule that takes former players back to when they were big men on campus.

For Hill, however, the book is instead a cold reminder that no one at Maryland, at least initially, thought much of him, either. He was brought in from tiny Hutchinson (Kan.) Community College because Maryland needed another passer for spring practices. His rightarm didn't impress anybody, and his physique – well, let's just say the Terps were eyeing other prospects who promised to be moreathletic.

The book also summons memories of the constant bashing Hill and his fellow seniors took from incoming coach Ralph Friedgen, whoarrived in 2001 to resurrect what had become a middling program.

"Every day, we were told we were nothing," said Guilian Gary, one of Hill's receivers at Maryland who now coaches receivers at Towson University outside of Baltimore. "Every day, we were told we were picked to finish seventh in the conference for a reason.

"Really, we don't have a lot of fond football memories. My book (of clippings) has a thick coat of dust on it."

That spring, Hill easily held off the younger quarterback contenders who had trouble figuring out Friedgen's pro-style offense. And the Terrapins didn't finish seventh in the Atlantic Coast Conference. Hill led them to a 10-2 record, an ACC title and a trip to the Orange Bowl.

That's where the validation comes in.

"It's kind of funny that the things that weren't going to allow me to be a good college quarterback are the same things that aresupposed to keep me from being a good NFL quarterback," Hill said.

With that in mind, he enters training camp this week again trying to convince doubters he belongs.

Many observers predict Hill, who more than any 49er was responsible for last season's late surge, will lose the starting job to Alex Smith. The former No. 1 draft pick has battled back from two shoulder surgeries and, like Hill's past competitors, is the more physically gifted candidate.

Others don't see either as the answer. Since the season ended, several big-name quarterbacks – from Jay Cutler to Brady Quinn toMichael Vick – have been linked to the 49ers because of the perception that they don't have a true starter.

Hill is 7-3 over two seasons and has yet to lose a game at Candlestick Park. Why the Rodney Dangerfield treatment? One obstacle,beginning with the time he stepped onto the Maryland campus, is that Hill fails the eyeball test. He was a track star at Parsons High School in Kansas, once running the 100-meter dash in 10.88 seconds and qualifying for the state meet. But he certainly lacks a sprinter's build.

In fact, when Hill first came to Maryland, the players didn't know what to make of him.

"We came out for practice one day, and it was like, 'Oh, we've got a new tight end,' " Gary recalled. "Then he started throwing and it was, 'Wow, for a tight end, you sure can throw.' " Said the self-effacing Hill, "What tends to happen is that people who see me say: 'Look at this guy. He doesn't look like he can run.' I guess I don't look that athletic."

There's also the matter of his right arm. Anyone who has attended a 49ers practice in recent years can attest that Hill's passes aren't always pretty, and long attempts in particular sometimes look as if they've been clipped by a shotgun blast. Hill's lack of zip is what most troubles the 49ers' decision makers, worrying them that their offensive possibilities are curtailed with Hill under center.

James Franklin, the Terrapins' offensive coordinator, admits that also was a concern when Hill came to Maryland.

�"Every year, you want to go out and recruit the sexiest guy, and we get consumed by how tall he is or how strong his arm is. It'sintoxicating," Franklin said.

But Franklin said the Maryland coaches realized Hill had other attributes – anticipation, accuracy and a quick release – that ensured his passes arrived at their destination as quickly as those from the strongest-armed quarterbacks.

Still, it took a while for Friedgen to be convinced. In the spring of 2001, Hill battled three quarterbacks: Calvin McCall and two hot-shot underclassmen who promised to be the future of the program.

"I remember he called me into his office in the middle of the spring and said, 'Look, we're not going to be very good.' " Hill said. " 'If you're not head and shoulders above everyone else, I'm going to play one of the younger guys.' "

Hill was more than head and shoulders above the rest, and the lack of respect from the head coach probably fueled him.

Indeed, Hill has an odd relationship with the slights he suffered then and continues to battle today. While he bristles at the notion he's not good enough, he benefits from it as well.

After all, if a defensive back looks at him and thinks there's no way this sluggish-looking 220-pounder can get around the outside on a quarterback keeper, it makes it all the easier to pick up a first down.

"That definitely works to my advantage," Hill said. "I like being underestimated."

McDonald has knack for blocking kicks By Tom FitzGerald, San Francisco Chronicle

(09-29) 17:36 PDT -- His father and grandfather used to get the ball in their college days, but defensive end Ray McDonald's moments of glory involve sacks and the occasional blocked field goal. The block, especially, is his equivalent of scoring a touchdown.

."It feels great, and it helps the morale of the team," McDonald said. When the 49ers return it for a touchdown, "it's a 10-point swing, and that's the best part about it."

It happened last year when McDonald blocked a 54-yard field-goal try by the Eagles' David Akers, and Donald Strickland returned it 41 yards for a touchdown on the last play of the first half.

It happened again Sunday when McDonald broke through the middle of the Vikings' line and blocked Ryan Longwell's 44-yard attempt, again on the last play of the first half. Nate Clements brought it back 59 yards for a touchdown.

If it hadn't been for the last-ditch heroics of Brett Favre, McDonald's block and Clements' run would have been a key to victory.

"All week, we studied their field-goal team," McDonald said. "We thought we could get a pretty good push on them. I was on their left guard, and our linebackers helped push (me and Manny Lawson) through there. I got in there clean, and I was looking right at it. It was a long field goal, so he had to kick it pretty low."

Lawson blocked a field goal last year against the Giants, and Clements brought that one back 74 yards for a touchdown. But McDonald's memories of that game in Week 7 aren't fond ones. The 49ers lost 29-17, and he injured his right knee, the one that had given him problems at Florida. He spent the next week on the inactive list, and although he didn't miss another game, he was hampered the rest of the season.

"I never put pressure on it," he said. "I wasn't conscious of it during a game, but when I'd make a cut, I'd take an extra step or two."

McDonald had surgery shortly after the season to repair the anterior cruciate ligament. He spent a month of training camp on thephysically unable to perform list, and that set back his conditioning.

Now the knee feels fine, and the third-year pro with the flowing dreadlocks is a big part of the 49ers' pass rush. He had a sack in each of the first two games.

"He's really starting to understand football, how O-lines try to attack you," defensive end Justin Smith said. "He has an unbelievable first step."

Guard Tony Wragge, who has to deal with McDonald much of the time in practice, calls him "very explosive. He plays with great leverage, and he knows how to use his hands well. He's got great get-off."

McDonald, who's 6-foot-3 and 290 pounds, probably inherited his quickness from his father, Ray Sr., who played wide receiver forFlorida in the mid-'80s and once made the cover of Sports Illustrated after a big performance. McDonald's grandfather was a running back at Bethune-Cookman.

"I have to say I got my size from my mom's side of the family," he said. "I tried to play wide receiver in high school, but I was getting too big, and I didn't really develop my speed until I got to college."

Though it has been three years since he played there (the 49ers drafted him in the third round in 2007), McDonald keeps in closecontact with the top-ranked Gators. On Monday, he talked on the phone with head coach Urban Meyer and defensive coordinator Charlie Strong.

"They're going to be No. 1 for awhile," McDonald said. "I don't think anybody's going to knock them off."

The phone conversations helped take a little sting out of Sunday's loss.

"We have to come back out (today) and get back to work," he said. "We lost to the Vikings and shouldn't have."

49ers' Morgan cueing up breakout seasonBy Mike Sando, ESPN.com

SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- It's an offseason afternoon at San Francisco 49ers headquarters and young receiver Josh Morgan is reaching deep into the team's video archives.

He cues up vintage 49ers practice footage featuring Jerry Rice, the player his grandfather taught him to admire from an early age.

"They've got it on old Beta tapes, those little small ones," Morgan later says. "It's the old-school technology."

Morgan watches Rice run specific routes in practice, then in games, and he is awestruck.

"If you just imagined the DB not being there, the way he runs routes in games looks exactly the same as when you watch old practice film of him running," Morgan says. "All his routes, he got in and out of within two steps. It's scary. It's scary that a guy could work that hard to be that great."

Morgan has yet to strike fear into opponents during his brief career. Staph infection and a groin tear conspired against him as a rookie, limiting Morgan to 20 catches.

Healthy again, Morgan is an ascending player with the ability and opportunity to break out -- as long as he stays patient in a run-oriented offense. He appeared destined for the starting lineup even if first-round draft choice Michael Crabtree had signed andreported to camp on time. With Crabtree still unsigned and free-agent addition Brandon Jones sidelined well into the season, Morgan and Isaac Bruce are clearly the primary options at wide receiver.

"Does [Morgan] have the potential? Absolutely," coach Mike Singletary said, "but a guy like Isaac Bruce isn't around a long time for nothing. He knows what he is doing. He knows the workout routine he has to have. He knows how to be effective. He knows the routes. Time is one of the things that will answer that question."

Morgan had a reputation to live down. An arrest for disorderly conduct while at Virginia Tech and questions about Morgan's attitude and dedication pushed down his draft stock. As a rookie, Morgan impressed the 49ers with his ability to grasp offensive conceptsquickly. The 49ers became convinced they'd gotten a steal in the sixth round.

"The guy has unbelievable talent," quarterback Shaun Hill said. "He's such a hard worker and a good kid -- a good young man, I should say. I can't say enough good things about him."

The 49ers list Morgan at 6 feet tall and 219 pounds, thick for a receiver. Morgan reported for training camp 5 pounds lighter than his target weight, his body fat down from 8 or 9 percent as a rookie to 3.8 percent this summer. Massive thighs still compel Morgan to buy oversized jeans, but he said his preferred waist size has dropped from 38 to 32.

Such was the power, largely, of the 49ers' decision to draft Crabtree.

Morgan was modeling the 49ers' new uniforms at a team-organized draft party when the team unexpectedly found Crabtree availablelater than anticipated. The 49ers drafted the Texas Tech receiver with the 10th overall choice. Not long after, Morgan recalled reading a magazine story suggesting his looming obsolescence.

The part questioning Morgan's speed "triggered" something in him. Morgan reported spending extra time at the track with 49ers teammate and fellow Washington, D.C., native Vernon Davis, and Davis' younger brother, Miami Dolphins first-round choice VontaeDavis. Their trainer would make up workouts from hell.

They might run 10 100s in less than 12 seconds apiece, six 200s in less than 22 seconds each and two 400s in a time Morgan couldn't quite recall, other than to say it was less than 50 seconds.

"You start praying for your legs so you can walk to your car and get home after that workout," he said.

Morgan hasn't dented the stat sheet much through two exhibition games, catching one pass for 7 yards Saturday night against theRaiders. The 49ers have been shuttling quarterbacks through the offense and trying to establish a hard-nosed identity through theground game. Rookie third-round choice Glen Coffee leads the NFL this preseason with 196 yards rushing, 56 more than any player.

Jimmy Raye will run the offense through running back Frank Gore when the games start counting. Davis, a Pro Bowl alternate at tight end last season, often led the 49ers in receptions during training camp practices. Bruce remains Mr. Reliable.

None of them possesses Morgan's combination of size, speed, youth, hands, blocking ability, versatility and knack for learning complex offenses.

"In a three-wide set, he could play all three positions, including the slot," Raye said. "He can play both X and Z, and so that makes him, in a game-day situation, a real plus, a real positive."

Morgan averaged 16 yards per reception as a rookie. His three touchdown passes covered 48, 31 and 30 yards. Morgan can also deliver in the run game, as when he cleared out a Raiders linebacker to spring Coffee for a long gain Saturday.

"For a big-bodied guy, for a big receiver, he has excellent explosion," Raye said. "He doesn't look like he would have that kind of explosion, but he's an explosive guy, a great leaper. Because of his arms, his circumference range is very good. He can get to some balls with extension that some guys cannot."

Morgan wants to improve his route-running and ability to recognize defenses. He couldn't have a mentor better equipped than Bruce -- unless Rice came out of retirement.

"I'm nowhere near Isaac Bruce level and definitely nowhere near a Jerry Rice level," Morgan said. "I have to get a lot better because those are the expectations I have for myself and the expectations Coach Singletary has for me."

49ers receiver eager to begin second seasonBy Dan Brown, San Jose Mercury News

Josh Morgan can look back and laugh. Recalling his arrival as a rookie, he uses words like "wide-eyed" and "lost."

To demonstrate, the 49ers wide receiver shuffles his feet until his body makes a full rotation.

"I was like this,'' he said, "I was running in circles."

The sixth-round draft pick eventually figured things out, and soon it was opposing cornerbacks left spinning. Morgan averaged 16yards per catch, highest among rookies with more than one catch.

Morgan also had three touchdown catches. Only one rookie wide receiver, Denver's Eddie Royal with five, had more.

And now?

Morgan is another year older and infinitely wiser. After practice Wednesday at the 49ers' organized team activities, Morgan said he expected to do far better than the 20 catches, 319 yards and three touchdowns he had during his injury-filled 2008.

It helps that he's healthy. Morgan played through pain last year and only now reveals just how bad things were.

That 48-yard, game-winning catch against St. Louis in December? Morgan did it with a torn groin muscle.

"Most definitely, it was difficult," he said of the final three games last season. "Especially in Mike Martz's offense, where it was like every play I was running deep, getting 20 yards downfield."

To make sure he was mended, Morgan spent the off-season at the 49ers' facility. He said he is 100 percent healthy again, which is a welcome relief. Besides the groin injury, Morgan dealt with a staph infection during training camp that weakened his body and derailed his learning curve just as the season kicked off.

The result was a slow start. Morgan didn't top 50 yards in a game until Week 7, when he had five catches for 86 yards, including a 30-yard score, against the defending Super Bowl-champion New York Giants.

Now, Morgan feels grown up. For example, he no longer needs a coach specifically assigned to point him in the right direction. During the mini-camps a year ago, 49ers assistant Adam Gase was responsible for telling Morgan what route to run, then making sure he did it.

"I had my own personal assistant," Morgan said. "That's how lost I was."

This year, he is in the running for the starting job opposite Isaac Bruce, his mentor. But Coach Mike Singletary is fond of saying that every position is open for competition, so Morgan will have to fend off free-agent acquisition Brandon Jones, first-round pick Michael Crabtree and holdovers such as Jason Hill.

"My first goal is just to stay healthy," Morgan said. "That's the most important thing. If I do that, I feel like I can at least double my performance from last year. I can be twice as good."

Friend's suicide tempers Smith's drive By Jeffri Chadiha, ESPN.com

Healthy, confident 49ers QB renewed even as he grieves a puzzling deathComment Email Print Share By Jeffri Chadiha

David Edwards (left) and 49ers QB Alex Smith's last conversation happened a day before Edwards' death. Said Smith: "It's hard forme to not have those feelings that I was being selfish about my NFL career, and I wound up not being there for David."

SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- Andre Dabagghian desperately didn't want to have that conversation on Aug. 10, 2008. It was nearly 11 p.m. on a Sunday night, and he knew his good friend, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Alex Smith, already had plenty of pressure on him.

Smith was fighting to keep his starting job during training camp. He was enduring tremendous pain in his surgically repaired right shoulder. The last thing Dabagghian wanted to do was drop this bomb: Smith's best friend, David Edwards, had killed himself earlierthat day.

The job became that much harder when Smith received Dabagghian's text message and called back a few minutes later. When Dabagghian heard the upbeat tone in Smith's voice, he told his friend to sit down.

So Smith steadied himself in his Santa Clara Marriott hotel room and quietly listened to the details of his friend's death. (Out of respect for Edwards' family, which didn't comment for this story, Smith asked that the manner of suicide not be revealed publicly.)

Smith's heart quickly sank as his former housemate delivered the news. His body tensed. His mind raced. Smith heard every word that Dabagghian said, and still he resisted the truth.

"I was in complete shock," Smith said in a recent interview. "I just didn't want to believe it."

The football star recalled speaking to Edwards on the phone just the day before -- and failing to return a subsequent follow-up phone call from him. Smith is overcome with regret.

"It's hard for me to not have those feelings that I was being selfish about my NFL career, and I wound up not being there for David."

After learning of Edwards' death, Smith called his fiancée, Elizabeth, who rushed over to the hotel. He called his parents, Doug and Pam, who had come to think of Edwards as their fifth child. Smith also called 49ers head coach Mike Nolan, who immediately responded to support the same quarterback he'd publicly feuded with a season earlier.

And after all those gut-wrenching conversations, Smith woke up the next morning and did something that was stunning in its own right: He went back to practice.

"I tried to go out there but I just couldn't get David's image out of my head," Smith said. "I've never lost anybody that close to me before. I still keep a big picture of him by my bed. Even now, I still wake up every day thinking about him."

Smith's finding his way back

Even Shaun Hil (left), Alex Smith's competition for the starting quarterback job, is impressed with the renewed strength of Smith's right arm.

It's been nearly 11 months since Alex Smith started what has been the hardest period of his life. He's still finding his way back from that devastating night. He's never been a man who's let people into his life easily, so the death of Edwards was even more painful to accept. But Smith would be the first to say that something blossomed in him shortly after that tragedy. In the wake of the devastation, he's developed a clarity of purpose that might ultimately save his NFL career.

After all, the same man who produced disappointing numbers in his first four NFL seasons (19 touchdowns, 31 interceptions and a 12-18 record as a starter) has been turning heads during the 49ers' offseason workouts. There's more determination in Smith's eyes, more swagger in his stride and more confidence in the once-gimpy right arm that now feels fully healed. Even Shaun Hill, Smith's goodfriend and the man who's battling for the starting quarterback job, has been impressed.

"He's throwing it well," Hill said. "[His ball] has got a lot of zip on it right now, and his accuracy is coming back. He's looking good out there. I like what I see."

"I think my focus is in the right place," Smith said. "I've never been through anything like what I went through last year, but I've also tried to take the good from it. I didn't do it consciously, but I have grown up. I do feel like I'm in a better place and I also know that sitting out as much as I have has definitely made me hungry."

Smith's teammates and coaches aren't the only ones who have noticed the change. When Smith could have been focusing on last-minute details for his wedding in February, he spent the day before the event grinding through another rehab session and studying the offense installed by new offensive coordinator Jimmy Raye. He also used to be the kind of guy who took time to watch shows like"The Office" at home with Elizabeth. Now he's eating dinner at 7 p.m., taking his playbook to bed at 8 and going to sleep by 9 so he can be rested for the next opportunity to prove himself.

Smith's friends say they haven't seen this side of him since his days as a sophomore at Utah, back when former Utes head coach Urban Meyer said he was a third-string nobody with a football career heading nowhere. That kind of motivation eventually made Smith aregular presence in the office of former Utah quarterbacks coach Dan Mullen, where Smith immersed himself in Meyer's system. Twoyears later, Smith had a 21-1 record as a starter. He also had NFL scouts drooling over his combination of size (he's 6 feet, 4 inches tall and weighs 217 pounds), arm strength and athleticism.

What was apparent about Smith then is the same thing that seems obvious now: He isn't going to wilt when the odds are stacked against him.

"I'm seeing the same attitude that Alex had back when nobody knew anything about him at Utah," Dabagghian said. "I've been waiting to see that confidence from him as the 49ers' quarterback, and I see that now. Alex really hasn't been this excited to play football since he was in college."

The question, of course, is whether Smith can continue impressing people when training camp starts. Hill has done enough to be considered the front-runner in this competition. He's 7-3 as a starter with the 49ers, and his inspiring play last season helped Mike Singletary go from interim coach -- after the team fired Nolan seven games into last season -- to permanent head coach in late December. For a team that has had so many issues at quarterback recently, it would be hard to overlook Hill's success on the job.

Smith also is playing for his fifth offensive coordinator in five years, which means there is no guarantee he will find an immediate comfort zone in Raye's system.

He is such a reputed perfectionist that Mullen said: "Alex really wants to think himself into an offense. He wants to know all the nuances of it so he can know how to use it."

That desire to perfect an offense could make it harder for Smith to play with the same instinctive freedom that Hill displays naturally.

But Smith also understands something crucial to his chances of his success: Those aren't the kinds of issues that he can control. He came into the league as a 20-year-old who was so sheltered that he had purchased his first car just a month before. Now, at age 25, he has the look of a mature veteran who's eager to show the world what he's learned.

Smith has changed his throwing motion to be more efficient with the football, and former 49ers quarterback Trent Dilfer, now anESPN analyst, also has noticed that Smith likely is ready "to play the game the way he wants to play it instead of the way others have been telling him to play it."

Added Smith: "I still feel like I have unfinished business here. That's because I still know what kind of player I can become and I haven't shown that yet. Thankfully, the 49ers have given me another chance."

When asked why Smith received another opportunity to compete for the job, Singletary said: "I basically wanted to see Alex and Shaun at the same starting place. I wasn't certain that Alex was at that place at the beginning of last season. I think he was trying to climb out of something. But I also think he has done that and he's done a good job here. He's competing for the job."

A valuable friendship

Smith would be the first to say that the climbing process that Singletary referred to has yet to end. In some ways, it might never be over. Smith had known Edwards since they first met as freshmen at Helix High in La Mesa, Calif. They didn't seem to have much incommon at first sight -- Smith was the introverted, gifted athlete, while Edwards was a quick-witted extrovert with little natural

�physical ability -- but they bonded almost immediately. Since both were blessed with bright minds, they often pushed each other with sharp debates and probing conversations ranging from sports to politics.

Smith and Edwards became so tight that they were nearly inseparable throughout their teenage years. Edwards often could be foundhanging out at the Smith family home in suburban San Diego, and that was even after Alex had left for school at Utah. (Edwards attended UCLA.)

"Calling David a best friend really doesn't do our relationship justice," Smith said. "He was more like an adopted brother to me. He was close to everyone in my family."

Doug Smith, Alex's father, added that Edwards "literally was at every important moment in Alex's life after they became friends."

That included a visit to New York City for the 2005 NFL draft, where Smith, Edwards and Dabagghian toured the town and waited tosee whether Smith would become the top pick that year. It had been a magical journey for Smith -- he had received only two DivisionI scholarship offers before ultimately maturing into an All-America quarterback -- and he wanted his pals along for the ride. When the 49ers selected Smith first overall, his friends joined him as roommates in his suburban San Jose, Calif., house.

They were all living a dream life in those days. Smith was trying to find his way in the NFL, and Edwards and Dabagghian were hismost ardent supporters and harshest critics. Edwards was even there when Smith went on his first informal date with Elizabeth. After Smith and Elizabeth hung out at the St. Patrick's Day festival in San Jose, Edwards invited himself to their dinner at a local restaurant that evening.

For Smith, everything slowly seemed to be falling into place back then. After throwing one touchdown pass and 11 interceptions as a rookie, he had improved noticeably under the guidance of new offensive coordinator Norv Turner in his second season. With Turnerplacing him in a quarterback-friendly offense, Smith completed a career-high 58.1 percent of his passes while throwing 16 touchdown passes and 16 interceptions. The belief was that 2007 would be even better, as the 49ers hoped to vault into playoff contention after finishing 8-8 a year earlier.

It was a scenario that seemed plausible until Smith tore ligaments in his right shoulder after Seattle Seahawks defensive tackle Rocky Bernard sacked him in a loss on Sept. 30, 2007. Though Smith was in so much pain that he had to sleep sitting upright for the remainder of the year, he first tried competing with the injury. When Smith's play declined drastically, he publicly admitted that he was severely injured and said Nolan hadn't understood his concerns. By the end of the year, Smith was certain Nolan had tried toundermine him with teammates by suggesting Smith was soft. (Nolan, now the Denver Broncos' defensive coordinator, was not allowed to comment for this story because of team policy.)

It was a nightmarish experience for Smith, who didn't play in the final six games of that year and ultimately underwent season-ending shoulder surgery on Dec. 11, 2007: "There were things that got out of the building back then that shouldn't have left. I think we both would want to go back and change that."

Dilfer is more pointed in his assessment of those events.

"Alex wasn't banged up," Dilfer said. "He was injured. That should've been presented better to everybody, or he should've been satdown. The organization sort of threw him under the bus."

What's also important to note about that time is that Edwards wasn't around very much any more. He'd taken a job that required him to work mainly in Iowa, and by the end of 2007 he was moving back to San Diego to prepare for law school. Edwards and Smith still spoke on the phone frequently. Edwards also made monthly trips to the Bay Area. But there was just enough separation that it waseasy for Smith to think he could've missed something about his friend's issues.

Smith's friends now suspect Edwards might have been grappling with a chemical imbalance. He could've been living with feelings of suicide for years. All Smith knows is that he couldn't see it coming as he tried to stabilize his imploding career.

"I was concerned with football," Smith said. "I feel like it took me away from David for a little bit. He was back in San Diego. He was trying to deal with some things."

That feeling overwhelmed Smith from the moment Dabagghian informed him of Edwards' death. Smith had seen Edwards enjoying himself on two separate occasions that summer -- first at Smith's engagement party and later at a Smith family vacation in ShastaLake. Smith also had talked to Edwards just a day before Edwards' death. There was no depression in Edwards' voice then, no reasonfor Smith to think his friend had reached a point of no return.

�In fact, that last phone call is what pains Smith as much as anything about this tragedy. When asked what he talked to Edwards about, Smith said: "The whole conversation was about me. He wanted to know how the competition was going, how my shoulder was feeling, how I was doing. That's the kind of guy he was."

Elizabeth Smith added that her husband had a tough time forgiving himself for what happened after that talk. When Edwards calledlater that night, Smith ignored his cell phone, figuring that he'd return the call later.

What Smith ultimately was left with was the kind of tragic mystery that could drive an analytical mind like his crazy. The closest person in Smith's life had given no indication that he had lost his will to live. Edwards had left no note in the wake of his death. Elizabeth and Smith's parents tried to explain that Edwards was fighting something nobody could prevent. But Smith still blamedhimself for the final result.

Said Dabagghian: "I was really worried about Alex in the two or three days after I told him about David. The perfectionist side of him was thinking about David, but he also was worried about what was happening with his team. You wouldn't find anybody who would feel sorry for Alex because of everything he has, but in that situation you would've felt that. Almost everything in his life was going wrong at that point."

Smith still managed to make it through those difficult days that followed Edwards' death. Smith's parents held a memorial service at their home three days later that included a backyard barbecue, which was Edwards' favorite event. Smith also gave the eulogy thatday, although he initially struggled with the responsibility. While choking back tears, he told some funny stories about Edwards before reminding people to remember the person his friend was instead of the way he died.

"I basically said everything I would've said to him if he was still here," Smith said.

As painful as that moment was for Smith, it did start a healing process for him that would prove invaluable in the coming weeks. Even when he lost his job to J.T. O'Sullivan and later underwent season-ending shoulder surgery last September, Smith didn't let those issues crush his spirit. Football always had been his release when things weren't going right for him. Now he used it as a means of escape even though he was sidelined.

While rehabilitating his shoulder, Smith continued to study film and attend meetings. He also kept up with the game plans that former offensive coordinator Mike Martz designed every week. Players on injured reserve usually go home after rehab and vanish from thelocker room. Smith decided he wasn't going to use his injury as a reason to distance himself from his teammates.

Alex Smith on entering his fifth NFL season: "My focus is definitely in the right place."

For Smith, losing his best friend had taught him the importance of not taking life -- or opportunity -- for granted.

As Smith's father, Doug, said, "Alex got to be an observer of the game when he was out. He used it as chance to learn."

"It was hard when I hurt my shoulder again," Smith said. "But you also do start to see the bigger picture better after something like that. I had a better grasp on life and what really mattered. And I wasn't going to dwell on things that were outside of my control."

That time was a breakthrough moment for Smith in ways that casual observers couldn't see. Instead of absorbing all the pressure that came with being a young, aspiring quarterback in the NFL -- as he'd done earlier in his career -- he learned the value of blowing it off. He stopped worrying about what the media were saying about him. He spent less time wondering who would coach the team after Nolan was fired.

Smith also didn't grapple with the possibility that the 49ers might dump him.

"I didn't know what was going to happen at the end of the year because there was a lot going on," Smith said. "But I also decided that all that uncertainty didn't matter to me. I wasn't going to sit at home and dwell on it. I was only going to worry about being the best player I could be."

The 49ers obviously saw some encouraging signs as well. Instead of releasing Smith earlier this offseason -- he was due to be paid $24.6 million over the last two years of his current contract -- they restructured his deal to a reported $4 million per season for this year and the next. The team's decision to keep Singletary also was a promising move for Smith. After going through those rocky times with Nolan, Smith so appreciates Singletary's candid, no-nonsense nature that he refers to his coach as "a man of honesty and integrity."

Singletary also sees how far Smith has come in a short time.

�"Difficult moments can make men mature in ways that age and time can't," Singletary said. "When Alex first came into the league, he was this wide-eyed kid who had a look that said, 'I'm in the NFL. Here we go.' But once you go through some tough times, your focus starts to sharpen and you know what you have to do. That's where Alex is at now."

Singletary added that he's talked to Smith about the importance of enjoying the game again.

"I told him it's a matter of feeling good out there," Singletary said. "That's the biggest thing he has to do because it's the key to playing well. Alex knows he can play this game. He just needs to put things back in place."

Smith admits that that process still isn't as easy as he'd like it to be. There are days when he'll be walking with Elizabeth and he'll stop to reflect on the loss of his best friend. There are moments when he'll look for a text message from Edwards or wonder when hisbuddy will come walking through the front door of his house.

"Alex still has moments when he needs to go through the grieving process," Elizabeth said. "He didn't really get that opportunity when all this happened."

But Smith has taken some important steps in addressing his pain. When he and Elizabeth were married at the Palace Hotel in San Francisco, they gave a tribute to Edwards.

Shortly after dinner arrived, they glanced briefly at each other through tears.

"We said we'd had a lot of weight to carry, but we also said it was time to start over," said Elizabeth, who also had an uncle die recently.

"This is a new year, a new season and a new start. There may be people who aren't with us any longer. But we also have to move forward."

It's that belief that is so apparent in Smith today.

He knows that his career with the 49ers remains up in the air. He realizes that all these good vibes won't mean anything if he can't keep turning heads in training camp. But Smith also understands something just as critical: His world will not implode if Shaun Hill is the 49ers' starting quarterback this season.

That's because Smith already has won a bigger battle -- the kind that ultimately made him a stronger person overall.

Said Dilfer: "Everybody can see that he's a different person now. Losing David and getting married have hardened him as a man in a good way. Now he's a guy who will draw a line in the sand and tell you when he thinks something is bulls---. That's something you need if you're going to be an NFL quarterback."

"My focus is definitely in the right place," Smith said. "There are a lot of peripheral things that you have to deal with in this league, and I dealt with a lot of them when I came in. It's everything from being on your own to facing the media. But I'm at a point where I'm not going to let anything distract me. I know who I am. And I know where I want to go."

Motor never stalls for 49ers' Justin Smith By Matt Maiocco, Santa Rosa Press Democrat

SANTA CLARA — The first start of quarterback Shaun Hill's NFL career came in 2007 against the Cincinnati Bengals. He went against a player who he is now happy to call a teammate.

“He was a guy you had to account for on every snap,” Hill said of defensive lineman Justin Smith. “He has a high motor and is very active.”

Smith is a rarity among defensive linemen. He takes few plays off during the course of a game, and always seems to be among themost energized players on the field late in games.

“Everybody else out there is running around and pretty tired, too,” he said.

Smith has started 124 consecutive games, ranking first among active defensive linemen. The only game he missed in his NFL careerwas his first game with the Bengals in 2001 after reporting late due to a contract impasse.

The 49ers signed Smith to a six-year, $45 million contract as a free agent last year. The money was well-spent, as Smith was named the sole winner of the Bill Walsh Award, which goes to the team MVP.

He got off to a good start to become a repeat winner on Sunday with an incredible performance in the 49ers' 20-16 victory over the Arizona Cardinals. After the coaches' review of the game film, Smith was credited with 13 quarterback pressures and nine hits onquarterback Kurt Warner.

His biggest play came when he prevented Warner from making a final desperation attempt from near midfield. Smith chased down Warner and stripped him of the ball while making a sack on the last play of the game.

“I haven't seen a defensive lineman do what he did in all 20 years of playing and coaching,” 49ers defensive coordinator Greg Manusky said. “I've never seen a guy play at that high of a level with that amount of snaps and be as effective as he was. He had a good game.

“I don't know. Maybe he's Superman.”

Spikes brings lessons he's lived and learned By Matthew Barrows, Sacramento Bee

Takeo Spikes was one of the last 49ers to shower and dress following last week's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. When he was finally ready to be interviewed, he seemed to be speaking as much to his teammates as the reporters gathered around him.

"This is what separates teams in general – the mind-set that 'we will not lose,' " he said in his deep and deliberate voice. "That's the mind-set (the Eagles) came in with. I know because I talked to their guys after the game."

Asked if the 49ers had a similar mind-set, Spikes said, "I would like to think that we would refuse to lose on our own turf. What we're lacking as a whole is attention to detail."

Spikes leads the 49ers with three interceptions. And the 31-year-old's experience and savvy have been a nice complement to the youth and athleticism of fellow inside linebacker Patrick Willis.

But Spikes' biggest contribution may be inside the 49ers' locker room, where the defensive unit has been without a spokesman andvocal leader for several years.

General manager Scot McCloughan said recently that before signing Spikes in the offseason, he received plenty of feedback about the linebacker from around the league, including from 49ers defenders Nate Clements and Justin Smith, who had played with Spikes inBuffalo and Cincinnati, respectively.

But McCloughan said he still was impressed with how quickly Spikes has been accepted in the 49ers' locker room. The 11-year veteran only joined the team Aug. 11. And even then there was some concern how a two-time Pro Bowl player like Spikes would reactto playing in the shadow of the team's star linebacker, Willis.

It hasn't been an issue. McCloughan said he was watching practice last week when Spikes hurt his shoulder. It wasn't a serious injury, but every 49ers defender, including Willis, walked up to Spikes to see if he was all right.

"It shows he's already fit in as part of the family, and that these guys know that for us to be as good as we can on defense, he's got to be a part of that," McCloughan said.

For Spikes, this week's locker-room lesson has been about the de facto motto of the NFC East, which he sums up as: "At the end of the day, either you're going to whup me or I'm going to whup you."

Spikes played the first five years of his career in Cincinnati before spending four more in Buffalo, a span in which the AFC won seven of nine Super Bowls. When he left to play for the Eagles last year, he admits he didn't have a lot of respect for his NFC brethren.

"Every game was physical in the AFC, and I always looked at it back then that the NFC's more finesse and more West Coast offense," Spikes said. "But when I got to the NFC East, it was a battle. It was tough, man. It was aggressive. It felt like an AFC divisional game every week."

Willis the next Ray Lewis? By Gwen Knapp, San Francisco Chronicle

(10-04) 21:27 PDT -- As Patrick Willis devoured the Rams on Sunday afternoon and the 49ers registered their first shutout in 119games, a two-part question loomed over Candlestick Point: How good can this defense be, and just how much separates Willis frombecoming the new Ray Lewis, the most fearsome, game-changing, team-altering middle linebacker of his generation?

After Willis' 21/2 sacks and interception return for a touchdown, another rather accomplished middle linebacker paid him the ultimate compliment. "Oh, he can be better than me," 49ers head coach Mike Singletary said, as if there could be no doubt. "He's an athlete, an athlete. ... I was an athlete, but not a 4.3 (seconds in the 40-yard dash) athlete."

The coach said he'd never had a day like the one he had just witnessed from Willis. "Not an interception returned for a touchdown," he said. "Those didn't come very often for me. Hands like rocks."

Willis often seems to be traveling a few miles per hour faster than anyone else on the field, but when the coaching staff turned him loose on the blitz against the soporific Rams, he soared. In addition to the touchdown and sacks, his first of the season, Willis recorded three tackles for a loss.

"Today was just a day where you just say 'Wow,' " Willis said. "It was not just me, but it was our defense together."

A 35-0 win over the Rams doesn't quite qualify as a statement, because the Rams are averaging six points a game. Nobody else in the NFL has an average of less than 10. But two touchdowns from the defense and a shutout have to say something about the 49ers. Infour games, they have allowed 53 points (seven on a kickoff return for a touchdown to the Vikings), the second-lowest figure in the NFL. (The runaway leader is Denver, which has surrendered 26 points under the direction of Mike Nolan, the 49ers' deposed coachwho became the Broncos' coordinator.)

A look back at the 2000 Ravens, the team that Lewis led to a Super Bowl win in spite of a weak offense, shows that they allowed 55 points in their first four games, most of them in a 39-36 loss to Jacksonville. (The Jaguars' offense scored all of the points.)

At this point, no one will confuse the current 49ers with Baltimore's champs. But even as Ravens Lite, they should be one of the most intimidating defenses in the NFL, allaying some of the concerns about their lumbering offense. And by the end of the year, they might more closely resemble the scorching defenses of those 2000 Ravens, or the 2002 Buccaneers.

They definitely won't sound like them, though. The 49ers lack a mouthy, boldly nasty actor like Lewis or Warren Sapp. Willis could not be humbler or quieter. If the 49ers need that type of boost, someone else will have to step up and spout off.

Outside linebacker Manny Lawson doesn't think that's necessary. He believes that the 49ers' defense benefits from confining itsedginess to the seconds after the snap. "I think we kind of throw teams for a loop," he said. "Instead of being nasty, we're out there smiling and joking and laughing, and they don't know what to expect."

Willis, however, could bring all of Lewis' other skills to the job. Singletary, who briefly coached Lewis, has no doubt of it. "Pat is still just scratching the surface. ... He just has to tie his talent and knowledge together," Singletary said, "and that's where he's going to take it to the next level."

Willis reputedly studies game footage as intently as a doctoral student, cultivating the type of instincts that make Lewis a transcendent player. "Ray could call out the play before it was run," said Niners defensive lineman Aubrayo Franklin, who played four seasons with Lewis in Baltimore.

Willis might not be able to read plays that well yet, but he got into the Rams' backfield so often Sunday, he must have climbed inside their heads, as well. Some of them probably think he's still there. Like any great player, he was unforgettable.

49ers' Willis brings down the hammer By Mike Sando, ESPN.com

Retired NFL players tend to miss the camaraderie. The 49ers' Patrick Willis will miss the violence.

Nine months after obliterating Jets receiver Brad Smith -- view the devastation 57 seconds into this highlight video -- Willis welcomed a chance to relive it.

"Oh, man, it felt amazing," he said. "I'm not going to lie."

Or lay down. The hit on Smith came a few plays after an unknown Jets player put Willis on the ground.

"I got up and it's the worst feeling," Willis said. "I cannot stand being on the ground unless I'm hitting somebody else. I feel like somebody just tried to take my manhood from me. At all costs, the only time I'm going to be on the ground is if I'm delivering the lick."

The conversation reinforces what's apparent from watching Willis on the field. Among NFC West players, perhaps only the Cardinals'Adrian Wilson projects strength, power and ferocity to such degrees. Both can knock out an opponent at any time.

Willis, unable to identify which Jets player knocked him down during the 49ers' 24-14 victory in Week 14, found Smith to be an inviting target. Strong safety Michael Lewis was chasing Smith across the middle when the receiver seemed to notice Willis approaching from the front. Smith slowed and started to duck. Lewis was tackling Smith from behind when Willis lowered his shoulder and hit Smith high, twisting Smith's body awkwardly. The sound at impact might have sickened a neurologist, but not Willis.

"Sometimes the ones that look like they shouldn't hurt are the ones that hurt, and the ones that look like they don't hurt just kill you," he said. "This one felt good. When I hit him, people don't understand, I didn't really hit him with everything I had because I was still getting over a rib injury that I was dealing with from the Buffalo game."

Against the Cardinals last season, Willis hit tight end Leonard Pope in the ribs with a shot that also knocked the air from Willis' lungs. As a rookie, Willis once thought his shoulder "came out of the socket" during a hit on Steelers receiver Hines Ward. He recalled his entire right side giving out for two or three plays, to the point where Willis told then-teammate Derek Smith he feared what mighthappen if the Steelers ran the ball in his direction. The hit on Smith might be his most devastating one yet.

"People don't understand it, but I don't know how you can get a thrill like that," Willis said. "You get angry, you get mad, you just go and just put it all in someone else."

P. Willis Smiling His Way Through Success in NFL By Khalil Garriott, NFLPLAYERS.COM

Patrick Willis can’t help but smile.

Sure, life is good for the 24-year-old San Francisco 49ers linebacker. He and his family have financial stability for years, he has made the Pro Bowl in each of his two NFL seasons and he was voted a defensive captain by his teammates last season. But regardless ofwhat is going on in his life, Willis always wears an ear-to-ear grin which belies his game-day exterior as a tough, physical football player.

“No matter what happens, good or bad, I’m always gonna be smiling,” said Willis, who did just that during the entire duration of an interview which lasted for several minutes. “A lot of people don’t know that; they look at me and think I’m supposed to be some kind of fierce, ferocious linebacker with a mean look on my face.

“I can get in a scuffle with you or we can get in a fight, but I’m still gonna be smiling and you’re gonna be like, ‘Is something wrong with this kid?’”

Willis, who has tattoos that say “I AM” on one arm and “ME” on the other, describes himself as a “really chill, laid-back type of guy.” He said the nature of his personality has always been to have a smile on his face, no matter the situation.

“Smiling somehow has a way of working situations out,” he said. “No matter what the situation is, I’m always gonna be smiling—good, bad or indifferent.” Willis has wasted little time bursting onto the NFL scene after his senior year at Mississippi, where he became the first player in school history to win the prestigious Butkus Award, given to the nation’s top defensive player. Willis followed that up with a sparkling first season in the NFL, racking up 174 tackles and four sacks en route to being named AP Rookie Defensive Player of the Year and the only rookie named to the All-Pro team. Last year, he captained the 49ers defense from his inside linebacker position and earned another Pro Bowl invitation.

Still, the modest Willis said he doesn’t consider himself a star player.

“It’s just me at the end of the day,” Willis said. “I’m thankful for the God-given abilities that He’s blessed me with, but at the same time, a lot of hard work, dedication and just surrounding yourself with the right people will help you get where you want to be in life.”

Willis credited his teammates and coaches for helping him earn the praise and recognition he has received during the young start to his professional career.

While still smiling, he said, “And so for me, it doesn’t stop here. At the end of the day, it’s good to make the Pro Bowl, but you’re not a star until your team starts winning. That’s when you start to feel like you actually mean something.”

Part of Willis’ fast start in the NFL can be attributed to his mentor and head coach, Mike Singletary. The two have forged a strong relationship in San Francisco based on mutual respect, as Willis realizes he has a rare opportunity to learn from one of the best ever to play his position.

“Every day is a process to get better, but I know I believe in him and he believes in me,” said Willis, the 11th overall selection in the 2007 draft. “For me, I have all the respect in the world for him because he’s been there and he’s done that. It’s an honor to get where he has been, and hopefully someday I will, but at the same time, I can only be the best I can be,” Willis added.

The natural talent displayed by Willis, coupled with his strong work ethic and preparation, gives him a good chance to follow inSingletary’s legendary footsteps. The heady linebacker knows there will be some bumps along the road to greatness, however.

“Playing for somebody like Coach Singletary, you know you have to come to practice every day and come to work every day,” he said. “Obviously he didn’t get that reputation, the accolades, he didn’t get to Pro Bowls or get to the Hall of Fame by just not working. He believes in work, and I believe in working [hard] myself because I have those goals as well. So, hopefully I can attain themsomeday, but for right now it’s just one step at a time.

“He sees something where he can help me … get to where I want to be. I’m just thankful to have him.”


�Last season, Singletary made headlines with some unique locker-room speeches and provocative motivational ploys to try to get the49ers to improve on the field. His coaching methods often reflect the fiery personality he showed as a player. His star pupil, Willis, stood by his head coach even during a trying season.

“He’s a very smart man, and whatever needs to be done, he’s gonna do it,” Willis said. “And I’m behind him 100 percent. He’s mycoach and I support him in whatever he does.”

Though San Francisco struggled to a 7-9 record in 2008, optimism springs eternal in the offseason, and Willis shares in that sentiment.

“I think we just have to hone in to the small things,” he said. “We’ve got players on our team—we’ve got all the athletic ability in the world—now we just have to take it to another level. You can have all the athletic ability in the world, but if you don’t do the small things; if you don’t become a team, then it really doesn’t matter.

“And I think somehow we have to become a team. We’ve got to put it all together.”

Willis knows he is one player expected to help put it all together. And he’ll be smiling every step of the way.
