I love gore n he deserves to be in the 49 er hall of fame n NFL hall of fame consideration. Still want him on our team n don't want to trade him! But seems a little old n Hunter has that spark n ability to make something out of nothing were Gore doesn't seem to have that much more.

What about 5 straight games with 100+ yards would make you say that?

Gore is hurt. So if you count injury/health as a skill 9which it is), then maybe. But keep in mind Hunter has never had to carry the load like Gore has. I'll take Gore.

No, Gore is still a top back, its tough when you get hurt to run. Hunter will take time, Idk if he is an every down back, When Gore does retire/leave, we will need another top notch back.

Gore is still legit this thread isn't

Pretty hard to argue with that. Hunter is an outstanding second option, but Gore remains the superior back.

Edit: That being the case, I wouldn't mind seeing Gore given next week off. I want him healthy for Turkey Day.

Gore is effective but will have to show Hunter more of the ropes before he hands over the torch.

Since I've joined WZ I notice a lot of babies who gripe about certain threads.... Please, if you don't care for a thread, then don't open it. I don't care how many clever gifs or jpegs you have.

dude he banged up his knee and we had faith in Hunter to take his place, quit over reacting and let it play out. Our game plan was obviously more pass oriented anyway. They dared us to throw by constantly run blitzing and playing weak coverage on the backend.
