Looked back at the opener... Bush started at CB and played A LOT. Shields and Hayward hardly played at all.

I'm still shocked that this didn't pan out.

Yeah, who could have seen that coming? Guess that's why they play the game.

I want to see...more of DJ Williams. He's mostly in on run plays but I'd like to see him out of the backfield on some PA when he's lined up at FB. They haven't shown much of that.

Ever since Kaep became the QB, he has barely been throwing it to Vernon Davis.

from titm's news and notes thread:
Tight end Vernon Davis reiterated Monday what he has said for weeks on end: He is a vital part of the game plan each week, it's just that defenses are making sure that he isn't the player that hurts them the most.

"There's some multiple factors there, the biggest one being that defenses are playing us and taking that into account, taking Vernon into account," Harbaugh said. "They're wary of getting beat by Vernon Davis. That's the biggest issue."

Davis said defenses are playing him different than other prolific tight ends such as Tony Gonzalez, Jason Witten and Rob Gronkowski, often with defenders in front and behind him on most plays.

Want to see more screen passes like last week! Lots of DuJuan Harris.

Yep. Screens to both the RB and WR, dump offs and quick passes to the TE are the key to victory IMO. Long developing plays will be the death of us in SF IMO.
