We only have two serious injuries, everybody else is just a precaution, or they are coming back at the beginning of the season.
Luckily, Boldin fills in for Crabtree perfectly, and Asumugha fills in for Culliver perfectly.

That's key. We're very lucky to have guys with similar skill sets that can step into their roles.

Yes the main thing is we upgraded at QB DL depth and on special teams. Nothing changes for our season outlook.

This is how i am feeling. Clearly losing your best WR and a good, young CB hurts and you can't really sugar coat that. However, of all the positions for this to happen at, it happened at positions in which they brought in comparable talent this off-season. I think both Boldin and NA should be able to contribute enough to compensate for these big losses.

It was a non contact injury. More of a freak accident.

this...plus, you can't really dial back up. No one is going to dial back during the season. You've to be prepared for it.

It is a shame as the team is set in good position to make a run again, but I think this is just the beginning of bad luck in 2013. The curse of the losing Super Bowl team.
thanks?

I don't agree with the curse threory, but I do beleive that the team has been very lucky with injuries. This could be year that luck runs out.
