Why wow? Everybody knows Claiborne has been struggling since he got here, so it's not like it should be a surprise to anybody. Shouldn't we be applauding Marinelli for telling it like it is when asked, instead of sugarcoating it?

I'm not criticizing him for being honest. I'm just a little surprised he was that blunt in the media. Good for him.

I'm not upset about what he said, but rather the position the team is in to have to start a corner, because... well... he is there.

I wouldn't blame the team for the CB situation right now. That's about the one position that they haven't neglected. They've certainly sunk more than enough resources into it. And even though Claiborne has been a disappointment, it's not like he wasn't looked at like a high prospect by everyone. And it would be kind of hard to have foreseen Scandrick and his suspension.

If we should be saying wow at any position and the dregs playing there right now, it should be the DL.

I wish the question was more along the lines of...

"What makes you confident in your defensive front?"

A much more pertinent question.

Well, Kapernick is not as fast as Danny Woodhead so we may be onto something here.

:dunce
 
Awesome. Let's just make the entire game plan public while we're at it.

how hard is it to just say something generic like, we will throw different things at him, or whatever. Seriously.

Maybe this is his attempt at being sneaky. Does any OC really think this team is dumb enough to rely on Bruce Carter to contain an elite athlete on the field after getting exposed last season?

Jerry did say we need to sneak up on them this year so maybe you're onto something

I get your point, but spying a QB is different than pass coverage. Carter might be stupid, but he is also an elite athlete.

That's not good. The only thing to clear that up is time and rest. Continually aggravating it could easily make it worse.

Yep. My wife has it and the doctor said most likely he will have to pull her out of work for a couple of weeks to keep her off her feet.
 
I dealt with those for years. Its the worst right after you get up from sitting for awhile. Just play him on the D-lime as well.
 
Kaepernick has that one huge run against a terrible Packers defense and the dumbass media anointed him. Then (against Green Bay again) he has a great statistical 2013 week 1 and he's fucking Canton bound.

Since then he's averaged under 200 yards passing!

So how do you "contain" Kaepernick? The answer is he sucks, so he's already "contained" himself. if he's running, the defense has already won. Kaepernick isn't the problem. It's Gore and Hyde turning the read-option into a viable weapon.

I had a mild case of it recently and with a few therapy exercises it went awAy in about 4 days.
