I expect the 49ers to play tough.
I expect the Giants  
jvm52106 : 10/7/2015 8:27 am : link
to really open up the offense and take advantage of a 49ers defense that is missing so many players. This matchup is quite favorable to our offense and its time we see the Giants offense click for an entire game.

Reuben Randle could be in line for a big game and I would expect to see a little more Vereen in the passing game.
Eager to see

Harris again in slot, albeit with his other duties, I'd hate to see him worn out early in the season
like the last few times we've played SF  
Andy in Boston : 10/7/2015 8:30 am : link
they come out with surprises. Remember the time before last, when Harbaugh came out throwing? Everyone expects them to run Hyde....they will throw everything but the kitchen sink at the Giants on Sunday.
I would love them to throw often.  
Ten Ton Hammer : 10/7/2015 8:36 am : link
Let's see how they match up on the outside with DRC and Prince playing as well as they are.

Yea, I agree. I think they will come out throwing considering we have the worst passing D in the league and use that to set up their running game; wouldn't you? I think they'll want to start off by getting the Giants in unfavorable match ups (ie. covering the TE or RB)and themn adjust from there. I'm sure the Giants will probably be thinking the same. They'll try to loosen up our run D by passing more IMO, and then hiy us with Hyde. If we can weather that, we should do fairly well.

Probably going to be a close game. A lot closer then Vegas thinks, that's for sure. This is a team that's ailing and wants to show they can get it done against a decent team in the conference. I'm sure they will come out fired up to play too. We have to match that intensity and up it at home!

We need this win or we'll be back pedaling again.

He said he tweaked it on Sunday chasing Taylor. One can only assume, without any confirmation, that he's day to day. Hopefully he'll be able to play, but the GIants will not rush anyone back from injury and he was out like 4 games last year with a hammy too. I'm praying that it's only a small tweak.
So, any roster changes  
Upstate_Giants_fan : 10/7/2015 9:17 am : link
Today?
Hopefully Ayers is ready to go..  
Chris684 : 10/7/2015 9:33 am : link
Would be a nice addition to the defensive front.

Odell Beckham came to Tom Coughlin and talked to him about the extra stuff. Coughlin said he was disappointed #Giants

Coughlin has no new info on Victor Cruz, but would not rule him out of playing this week.

Coughlin on Dwayne Harris: "We got Rueben going two weeks ago. We needed to get Dwayne going and I think we did."
Not only is Kennard a concern,  
Simms11 : 10/7/2015 11:15 am : link
but Selvie now with a calf? Another freakin calf?! Is this the year of the calf injury? It seems like every year we have a new theme with these injuries?!

Anyway, Selvie was also a key contributor in our successful run D last week. Hopefully he can practice this week and play.
Yeah, the MRSA is no joke, I've had it and it's scary...  
Dan in the Springs : 10/7/2015 11:16 am : link
Interesting watch on Kuhn. Can't wait to hear how much he played, and while I know the Giants have a good portion of the practices closed I'm hoping the beat reporters can sniff out what string he practiced with.

From my view Bromley had a pretty good game. Actually he had a great game in the first half - haven't really finished analyzing his second half yet. Also, Nix was stout - looked like he did a lot of what Kuhn ever does. Didn't really see Nix do much in the backfield but Kuhn doesn't either. Finally, Jenkins played very, very well IMO at DT this past week.

If they go back to giving Kuhn a starting/prominent role in the run-stop package, and with Whitlock clearly earning more snaps in the pass-rush package, who will be losing those snaps?
great  
Eric from BBI : Admin : 10/7/2015 11:17 am : link
another calf muscle
So if Kuhn's back, but Ayers and Selvie out/limited  
Enoch : 10/7/2015 11:18 am : link
that probably means more snaps at DE for Jenkins.
Hopefully Kennard and Ayers can go tomorrow  
nygiants16 : 10/7/2015 11:20 am : link
Selvie has a calf so god only knows when he will be back...

Coughlin said Mcbride will practice tomorrow.

You're not kidding. It's ridiculous that they didn't even ask for an update re: Kennard.

Eric from BBI : Admin : 10/7/2015 11:40 am : link
especially since Kennard missed 3 games with a hamstring issue last year and is clearly one of our top players now.
2 questions in conf. about Kinnard  
micky : 10/7/2015 11:45 am : link
but not in depth questions though about him. Ashame, because he's been playing good and would be help this Sunday vs V Davis.

Davis probably won't play. He's been out with a knee injury, thankfully, but I believe they are now using a guy named Garett Celek, but the way we cover TEs, anyone of them can kill us!

I stand corrected, as Tc said today that they may see V Davis on Sunday. That would suck big time.

to practice this week, if not DL is going to be very thin, may have to bring back Ellis
Vernon Davis is not the same player he was 2-3 years ago.

Two weeks ago, Davis broke 50 yards receiving for the first time since 2013 - thanks to one big play in garbage time of a blowout loss. He hasn't scored in well over a year. Part of the problem is Kaepernick, but the dreaded fork is showing in this 31-year-old TE's back.

I suppose that's comforting, however, with the way we cover TE's, he could still have a big day against us. Witten is older and probably slower and still killed us!
Kennard had the MRI  
Tuckrule : 10/7/2015 3:15 pm : link
Hopefully it looked good and he can play this week or be ready for the Eagles. We need him in there badly this week. He was a huge reason we shut down the bills run game. 9ers have the same offense as the bills. Pound the rock and kap uses his legs. Torrey smith doesn't scare anyone and Vernon hasn't been Vernon in 2 years
