could be a blessing in disguise

now it will be trial by fire for Lardarius, which I believe will help him, and now we have another FB so maybe LeRon will get the touches in short-yardage situations with a FB in front of him.

I lol'd at this

Why would we want to use a pro-bowl FB on short yardage situations? Who does that these days?

I agree. I thought McGahee did pretty well in losing a couple yards over three tries at the goal line.

Water covers 2/3 of the Earth's surface. Ed Reed covers the rest.

one of those was flacco's fault

he did the handoff in slow motion, giving mcgahee no time to react and the defense tons of time to see the play develop…

my main problem with willis is that he’s a fumbler. Ray Rice grips that football like he’s trying to pop it at the seams. Willis runs with it like he’s going in for a layup. And while that fumble was correctly called back because his knee was down, If I were Harbaugh, I’d still call that a fumble in my mind because I don’t want my players to cough the ball up EVER—even if its after the play.

All Harbaugh cares about is Men of Integrity. You can fumble all you want, just gotta be a man of integrity.

I'll be

happy when Willis’ contract is up and he can stop whiping his ass with money. And probably “making it rain” in Vegas, too.

Yeah, so

Ali probably won’t see the field. I don’t even know who he is, but he replaced Matt Lawrence on the roster. At the most, he will be on spec teams in his place, right?
