Anyone have some solid info on this?

Dunno yet. Should find out something shortly. @huli9ers Crabtree's injury? A few days? or Weeks?

Everyone is brushing it off like it's nothing but if he misses out on preseason he misses out on building more chemistry with Smith. Hopefully it's nothing more than sore.

He need's a Boon's massage from Val

We all need some of that action.

hell no! those things are like steele wool

you like it, quit frontin

It's like Chuck Norris, powerful yet wonderful.

This is a pic from Phil Barber. As you can see it didn't have much to do with the Smith throw, it had to do with being tackled in the head when he's already on the f**king ground. Whoever that DB is he's a dumbass.

You don't know that. The leap from the high throw could have caused an awkward way down while the DB was trying to make a play. What if Crabs didn't need to leap? It would have probably been just a stand up wrap up situation.

Who cares, it's football. What I am more concerned is if we see too many inaccurate throws that could possibility take away YAC that could have been. For example, a high throw stops after the catch whereas an on target throw allows for the WR to maybe have a chance at slipping the tackle because he's already grounded and can make a move.

I see it similar to a PG passing the basketball. In the perfect location, the other player can catch and shoot easily and quickly but if the ball is slightly off, then that split second the shooter takes to set is the difference between him having to pump fake and pass up the shot.

Little things like these is what made Joe Montana and Steve Young great.

The whole team is hurt. The O Line is already blown up before the season starts. And now WR's too. Singletary's practices are too tough. You need guys to last until the season too you know.

@baraiza update on Crabtree? > Day to day with a neck strain. Don't expect him to get on the field Sunday vs. Colts in exhibition opener.

hope he plays in the indy game even if its 1 series alex and crabtree need to work on their timings a little more and indy has a great passing defense also this will be a good test for antony davis im intrested to see how davis holds his ground against mathis

No he doesn't, why turn a strain into a pulled neck muscle, especially if there is a facemask after the catch-happens you know.

Maiocco tweeted that Crabtree is at practice, so thats a good sign
If anything he'll just miss this first game and he will have 3 more games to mesh with Alex Smith&Wesson.
