In the cases where it is appropriate to merge threads (like if an injury happens and everyone reports it at the same time) we will do so.If you want a more interactive experience please check the live chat:

Now lets remember guys we have a new coaching staff and new system and have had 11(i think) days of practice, probably gonna struggle. So no the season is not ruined if we lose or dont look to hot out there

I am starving for some Niner action!!!

The Saints will be a good test.

I hope they let Kaep take a lot of reps.

I can't wait to see Aldon Smith use his club.

I think we may be approaching this as more of a scrimmage. More worried about what we are doing than winning. Getting a glimpse of exactly where we are at, and where we need to progress. Not saying were going in to lose, but as you have said 11 practice days. No way we know everything we need to know.

Excellent points!

We know Harbaugh is a competitive guy, but I don't think we're playing this game to win. I think it's going to be used for evaluation and the continued installation of our schemes.

Basically, this is a glorified practice.

Be prepared for some ugly mistakes.

I'm curious to see how far back our corners play from the LOS.
