Can't we ever use a preseason game to practice throwing deep. Take a chance and throw it ten times in a row. We and everybody else knows we have a running game, let's give them something else to think about.

Greenbay still will play the run and try to force Alex to throw, let's get ready

Not sure I see posts adding value to the thread here. But at least you are all boosting your post count.

I agree but Alex could get rid of the ball a little quicker and also looks like he needs to work on his reads. Missing wide open receivers deep and instead hitting guys for very short gains.

I noticed right off the bat, Alex looks short first. Compare him to Schaub last night who was looking at deep routs first before bring in his looks. Maybe he realized he could do that with Brooks and Smith having the night off. Just an observation.

Don't have any red boxes filled but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.

Like many others here, I won't get worried about our offense until the actual season starts. A lot will change and I don't think teams like the Saints will be falling to the Jags or the Packers will be getting blown out by the Browns.

not concerned yet.. I'm more sick of the drops than the inaccuracy. I think we're still a run first team, but because teams cant stack the box now, it only enhances our running. If we need to spread out the field for a pass, we also have the talent for it too. I'm not worried at the moment because our run game actually looks BETTER than it was last year, and that should scare NFL teams. KH is a damn beast

This. With the Texans playing as if it was the regular season, it's encouraging to see the offense moved the ball twice downfield close enough to score on both possessions using only vanilla plays. Had the offense been able to score TDs, it'd have been much better, but with Jacobs out, and Smith getting hit on almost every play, there was no point in trying too hard to win a meaningless game. Had Jacobs not been injured, I'm sure the 49ers offense would score TDs on both possessions.

The plays seemed like the normal play book from last year...hopefully JH has more plays

Not concerned in the least with the New Orleans exhibition opener from last year still fresh in my mind.

ERMAHGERD!!!!!

Our offense had a bad game in their 2nd preseason, I'm worried and we need a change. I say we get Tebow for our Super bowl run. Jacobs and James are gone forever. Trade for TO. Ok, that should shore everything up.

If you hadn't noticed, Smith was hit constantly, including some rather nasty looking ones. I'm sure the coaching staff would have loved a few more long passes like the one Smith tried but Manningham was held (but not flagged), but after the Jacobs injury, I think Harbaugh just wanted Smith to finish the two drives in one piece.
