Here's hoping he gets to 10K in the final game at the Stick. I can see no more fitting end than that.

Don't talk about him like he's ready for the retirement home. He's still by far the most productive back the 49ers have.

And just why would we release Gore after this season? He hasn't slowed down appreciably and we don't have proven talent beyond him that we know can step in and be the threat that he is. Once again, Frank faces the 2nd most 8 man fronts in this league behind only the great Adrian Peterson. There is a reason other than our mediocre passing attack teams play us this way. That reason is because Gore is still elite at what he does. If a team plays us with a 7 man front Gore would absolutely carve up said defense. I am excited about Lattimore and Kendall and LMJ but we need to open 2014 with Frank sharing the load with the backs that step up and earns it in the offseason and the preseason. It would not be wise to just release Gore and assume that the other backs would come right in and force defenses to play us with 8 man fronts to aid our passing attack and be able to shoulder the load and the abuse that Gore does and to protect the QB like Gore does. Gore is still a franchise back and we would be foolish to release him without a proven replacement
Salary cap
This, plus age, it can't last forever, and Frank is closer to shutting it down than he his to his prime. Frank will not want to be second string, or part of a rotation, Frank wants to be, and deserves to be the man. Trading, or releasing him would be a favor, he could play a few more seasons for a team with less depth. Maybe he has one more good year, maybe he has two, but as the great Bill Walsh said, better to let a player go a year to soon, than keep him a year to long.

NFL Rush Defensive Rankings
Tampa - #9 - 103.7 yards/game
ATL - #30 - 133.6 yards/game
AZ - #3 - 84.5 yards/game
ya, thats pretty much what I said. lol

I think Sunday Colin has a great game. I think the bics defense is similar to the redskins... I know they have goldson but our offensive line are mailers and angry... Bics D is not
