two guys we need to contribute beginning game 1 out..
i guess it COULD be worse.
tough for those two fellas, i wish them a speedy recovery.
 
Most likely due to that so called spectacular catch?.....We have bad luck with injuries.
 
I guess 10 years of injuries to dozens of key players isn't enough for the football gods. What a shit show this team is.
 
This team has talent, but very poor depth. We can afford few if any injuries. Let's hope they heal up fast and we manage to stay pretty healthy otherwise. A few long-term injuries to key players and we could be sunk.

EDIT - The fact Gaines is somehow sustaining a new minor lower body injury every week, despite never even playing a full game, is worrisome. It really makes you wonder if his lisfranc has fully healed, or if his body is somehow compensating for the foot not quite being 100% yet, leading to poor running form, muscle imbalances, etc (leading to soft tissue injuries)...

Pretty rare to get through preseason without losing somebody.

Thought we had been fortunate until now.

I am also curious if a "couple weeks" means they'll be out for roughly a couple weeks into the regular season, or if it means a couple weeks from today (in which case they might still be ready to suit up vs. San Fran).
 
Where are the durable football players at? We seem to have bad luck choosing them....
 
Hopefully Spruce will be available next week. Both temporary losses, but Gaines makes for a bigger problem imo. I realize anything can happen on any given gameday, at least it's the 49'ers we face week one and not Seattle. jmo.

Lisfranc is a bad injury and recent history is showing that you can not rush the recovery. Too me we have been pushing him too early because of other decisions. Should not have been traded like Quinn.
 
No worries. Fisher will just Gurley 60 times a game to keep the defense off the field.

Which is exactly what fisher was planning on doing anyways.
