What Did Barry Sims do? I thought that was Barret Robbins...

Neither are niners. Don't sweat it

I remember Robbins but not Sims. Didn't Robbins have legt. mental problems and his teammates/team just say screw you? I know it was the SuperBowl but I hope I wouldn't be that cold if one of our players had mental problems.

good for him.

Alcohol is tougher to quit than smoking in IMO.

I have to admit, I'm really impressed with Boone at guard. Our Oline is filled with Monsters. Boone and Davis are two big ugly's to fear. This could be something special for years to come. I'm now a believer....

Boone stepped it up.

Still though. Great 1st start.

, I think he confused. Raji caused some problems, got in the backfield on Alex a few times. We weren't getting hugh running lanes, gore and hunter worked there asses for every yard. So did the oline. Clay matthes, Aj hawk also had good games. I would grade the niners Oline in pass protection C+, in running B+, there's still work to be done and improve on...

Best thing I can say, I didn't notice him other than when the commentators pointed him out. No news is good news for O-lineman,

Very good first game. t was Boone's first regular season start as RG. He passed the first test.

EVERYONE on the team needs to get better and will improve with the excellent coaching staff we now have.
