WorksGoodman

he drops way too many passes and gets called for holding.
Bruce does a great job and doesnt get holding calls nearly as often.

but i use him as FB on short yardage plays sometimes

I don't throw bullets at him . Just checkdowns in case none of the niner wrs get seperation, which is like 85% of the time.

Jacobs is perfect for short yardage at fullback, works in Madden so it must work in real life? Right?

Jacobs is obviously just insurance!

i hate to rust players on the bench...usually leads to mistakes at the wrong time

You're right. You're finally realizing that Kaepernick is not ready and could easily make some terrible mistakes coming of the bench.

yes i see that..but Kaep at least has some snaps...probably just in case...

Jacobs if he ever plays would probably run tall and get hurt since he has no contact playing time

agree

I want Kap to get reps in garbage time just so he's not gunshy.....Jacobs I have no idea how he will fair, when was the last time he ran the ball, Aug?

I believe Jacobs was inactive against the Cards. That's why he didn't come out on those plays.

Major shame.

Can it be that? I'd hate for it to be that......but you never know with our coach.

I want him to play. How exciting was it to see those pre-season carries all go for good yardage?

Harbaugh probably brought him here on purpose to not give him any playing time as a "screw you" kinda thing
