49ers-Lions, Final Injury Report: Most Everybody Is Probable

After a week of some injury question marks, the 49ers released their final injury report this afternoon and most everybody we were concerned about is listed as probable. Mike Iupati and Isaac Sopoaga were two question marks at various times this week, but as it currently stands, there is no real reason to think either guy won't play on Sunday.
The most significant Out for the Lions this week would appear to be Tony Scheffler. He has done a bit more blocking than receiving, with Brandon Pettigrew being the prominent pass catcher at tight end. Pettigrew is actually the second leading receiver on the team behind Calvin Johnson with 26 receptions for 279 yards and a touchdown.
We've talked plenty about Megatron, but Donte Whitner and the linebackers could still find themselves with their hands full against Pettigrew. Wide receivers Titus Young and Nate Burleson are difficult matchups as well, but Pettigrew could be the matchup to watch on Sunday.

Edwards
Yea, sorry, I know you were hoping for it. But he’s been ruled out all week, so such is life. After the bye should be good.

I just am super-anxious to see him and Crabtree on the field at the same time. Couple more weeks I guess.

I think we’ve done reasonably well in spite of his absence; probably because Morgan stepped it up, but I think we’ll do ok w/Ginn~Williams for 1 game against Detroit. besides, we’re primarily a TE offense melded to a power run attack.
And now I can rest a little easier knowing our o-line remains intact. Was worried for a minute that we’d have Chilo subbing in for Iupati

Crabtree
Edwards
Walker
Davis
…that’ll probably be the most common personnel grouping once Edwards is back

Also
I thought I read from one of the Lions fans over here that Scheffler was going to play. You may want to double-check that one.

I get the NFL injury reports emailed to me so it’s what the Lions said.

Lions Wins to date.... highlights
Week 1: Win 27-20 over Buc’s / Strafford 305 yds / Best 72 rushing / Johnson 88 yds
Week 2: Win 48-3 over Chiefs / Stafford 294 yds / Best 57 rushing / Burleson 93 yds
Week 3: Win 26-23 over Vikes / Stafford 378 yds / Best 14 rushing / Pettigrew 112 yds

Week 5: Win 24-13 over Bears / Stafford 219 yds / Best 163 rushing / Johnson 130 yds
I'm sorry. This is off-topic, but I thought you would still be interested.
I was asked by NinerFanTucson how the Cowboys handled Megatron before Romo’s pick sixes. I asked a person more knowledgeable than myself that question. He said they used Mike Jenkins in single coverage, and when they rolled double coverage, it was bracket coverage with Jenkins underneath and Gerald Sensabaugh over the top. When Sensabaugh went out with a concussion in the 4th quarter, we lost a big part of our game plan.
sorta how a lot of teams are choosing to cover these jumbo
TE’s in the league now… bracketing. It helps nullify the height/strength/speed advantage.

Bowman
He will take over TE Duties to allow goldson to help out with C.J. And Whitner to help out in rush defense which he does extremly well.

Thanks for getting back to me on this...

You're welcome.
The response from the guy was as interesting to me as it is to you. I would have replied directly to the original question, but it’s in an article a page or two back. I was afraid you wouldn’t have seen the more educated response so I posted it here.
Harbaugh's dinner with Jim Schwartz and brother John
during the owner’s meeting in Atlanta. Here’s the link:
49ers.pressdemocrat.com/2011/05/inside-the-49ers/new-look-niners-could-be-behind-before-first-kickoff/
Harbaugh will have a point to make to Schwartz come Sunday.
I did not realize that...
(1) Ted Ginn is 5’11 / 180 lbs and Kyle williams 5’10 / 180 lbs. I think those two will be O.K. in the pass game, but are they not a bit light for the run game?
(2) Carlos Rogers is 6’0 / 199 lbs and Chris Culliver 6’0 / 199 lbs. Those guys present good size match ups with most WR’s in the NFL.
(3) Calvin Johnson vs Carlos Rogers, they must have played against each other in some past NFL games, so I wonder how Carlos did then?
they are blocking corners
who wont always be a whole lot bigger

Calvin torched Rogers last time.
Lions fans have been making a big deal of it.
We don't need 8 in the box. We have 52 in the box.
Oh well… there’s always redemption to hope for.

Thats good
But i feel that culliver should have the honors 3 passes defended and a int. that is extremly good for a rookies first true game starting nickle.

Culliver is probably starting on Sunday:
How did CB Shawntae Spencer look this week in practice?
Harbaugh: “Good.”
Will he be up and available for you on Sunday?
Harbaugh: “Yeah just like last week.”
But was he available last week?
Harbaugh: “Yes.”
He could have played?
Harbaugh: “He could have.”
So how do you—has CB Chris Culliver won that job then?
Harbaugh: “Tune in on Sunday and find out.”

C. Culliver – 6’0", 200 LBS (38.5" Vertical)
C. Johnson – 6’5", 235 LBS (43" Vertical)
… at least Culliver has the speed to help him some.

They all have good defensive backs for the most part.
And Kellen Moore could be getting scouted as well.

Yeah their DBs are coached up pretty good
the only knock on them is that they don’t face the kind of offensive schemes that they’ll see in the NFL.
I’m sure manraj is praying that the scouts are there for Moore.
Wait ... what?
They are scouting … now? They have to complete that Brandon Lloyd trade … FILL IN THE MISSING PIECE!!!
Off the top of my head
I seem to remember Boise St. and Michigan St. both having big DTs that are projected to go high in the draft.
Interesting.
We don't need 8 in the box. We have 52 in the box.
Jerel Worthy for Mich St and Wynn for Boise St
