Joshua Morgan Injury Update: CSN Sources Indicate Fractured Ankle
The 49ers dominant victory was overshadowed a bit by an injury to Josh Morgan near the end of the game. Matt Maiocco is reporting a source told CSN Bay Area that Morgan suffered a fractured ankle in the 48-3 victory. The 49ers have not confirmed the information and I would suspect we won't hear much from the coaching staff about the injury.
Morgan caught a pass from Colin Kaepernick and was heading towards the endzone when he was caught from behind and brought down awkwardly on the ankle. The one bit of good news (if you can call it that) is that apparently there is no MRI scheduled, which I believe would rule out additional ligament damage.
While this is bad news for the 49ers receiving corps, it simply means the team must continue its credo of Next Man Up. Ted Ginn Jr. and Kyle Williams will likely both get more opportunities this coming week against Detroit. Braylon Edwards conceivably might be able to return this week, but I would be surprised if that were the case. If he is not close to 100% for Detroit, I'd rather have him sit one more game as opposed to risking a lengthier injury. This is even more important given Morgan's potentially serious injury.
I'm not sure how long an absence this would be for Morgan. Dez Bryant fractured an ankle last year in December and was finished for the season, but that's just one of many possible scenarios. The recovery time really does depend on the severity of the injury. Given the 49ers choice to not release a lot of injury information, it may take a day or two to figure out exactly how long Morgan is out. We'll have more as further information comes available.

Tough, tough break for Morgan and the 49ers.
I hope he makes a speedy recovery and is back to making an impact on the field sooner than expected.

49ers will make a move
can’t play with only 3 WR’s on the roster. Either Braylon will be activated, or somebody like Ziegler will be called up again.
Agreed!
Ziegler is the guy.
What a shame about Morgan! He was really starting to emerge as the wide-out playmaker.
Opportunity for someone to come alive.
Other than...
…the liabilities of Moss and Owens, and the previously cut players (Ziegler) are there any other FA WR’s out there available?
we can afford to sign someone off another practice squad
Harbaugh will find a QB and he will succeed.
practice squad
Joe Hastings and John Matthews are on the 49ers practice squad. Maybe Hastings (matthews only recently joined team). I don’t think the team makes a big splash move.

Could have been worse i suppose
But this still hurts… even if he makes his way back onto the field this season that ankle wont be at 100%, and neither will he.
This is gonna hurt the offense next week against the Lions.
Why would you be "surprised" if Braylon came back this week?
It’s not like it’s a long-shot. They said 21-days and he’ll be past that by the Detroit game.

21 days takes up to sometime during this week if it’s exactly that. Given his own comments I lean towards thinking he sits one more week. Maybe not, but that’s my opinion.

If Edwards comes back early as a knee-jerk reaction to Morgan’s injury and then reinjures himself, then we are much worse off. He should wait until after the bye.
Come on, Alex, please be good this year..

I'm with Drew
Braylon wants to prove that he is a team player and these guys are ultra-competitive. He will say he is fine and force himself into the lineup. If he says, “coach I’m ready and I am being careful” what do you do?
then we let him in
but if he doesn’t say anything don’t touch him

Risking a bigger injury is not a very smart policy
If Braylon comes back too soon and then reaggravates the injury, he might be out for the season instead of another week.

Williams will get the ball... not Ziggy
Ziggy if he comes off the practice squad will be a gap fill in case they need to run four wide and will probably fill in on special teams here and there. Which they almost never do with Walker and Davis.
Williams is going to break out. He will out play Ginn. Edwards will be back soon too. I would prefer him to wait a week but he will probably want to come back for a bit of a home coming.
Williams is a diamond in the rough and this is going to be his opportunity. Hope Morgan heals fast but it is amazing the depth we have at this position.
Ummm , Ziggy isn't on the practice squad ...!!

But they will though.

Summary: I believe that Smith has the most upside of any outside linebacker coming out this year. He is lightning fast off the ball, he has excellent moves, great use of his hands to shed blockers, and zero’s in on the quarterback similar to that of a Lawrence Taylor. Smith has a real shot at turning in to a quarterback terminator.

that and P-52 destroying Reggie Bush on a screen pass are my 2 favorite tackles from the last couple years

I liked Colin Jones' tackel too
On ST.
In general I love the physicality of this squad. They seem to be breaking teams down over 4 quarters. Tampa and Philly both softened up as the game went on; they didn’t want no more of that.

I used to despise the Packers because #4 and Co would beat the 49ers all the time.
But then I found out they were the NFL’s only fan-owned team and became much more amenable to their success.
I don't hate the Packers anymore since He Who Must Not Be Named retired
they became a fan owned franchise back in the 30s when they needed to raise money for another season and Lambeau came up with the idea of selling shares.
I think I hate them more....
At least when Favre was in there, we had a shot at a 4 INT day.

thank god that stupid bus commercial isn't shown anymore w/ their smug-ass faces
…some other team does it now, still with that annoying song
As I said somewhere else, I hate them more than ever.
May hate for Green Bay and Dallas gets stronger and stronger as I get older and older.

I see your point
but he was a niner fan as kid, now he is a professional play for the team that pays you… gotta respect that
So was Brady and I dislike him too.

Hooray, Drew K with the REC THREAD!!!!!!!!!!
Blogging is nothing more than graffiti with punctuation...
Thinking about Aldon... given that he still has 4 games against Arizona and the Rams
Plus the Steeler’s iffy O-Line, seems like there’s a good shot he can get 10+ sacks, no? He’s already got 3.5.
I can honestly see him getting 3-5 sacks during the two Rams games alone.
Awesome. Awesome to the max.

Dobbs is some kind of Young/Smith/Roosevelt hybrid, and will absolutely ruin the NFL experience for the other 31 teams and their few fans.
By the way
The Niners should get more credit for the Bengals win (Florio is giving that game its due though, so that’s a start).
They’re 3-2 with a really good defense and a clutch rookie QB.
Two guy's (Synder & Miller) who deserve some credit for producing results....
better results than the two previous starters (Rachal & Norris).
Just a nice little tidbit for those that care..
My sister in laws uncle is the team doctor for the White Sox and I hung out with him this weekend. He said, in his medical opinion, he thinks Manning is done for good. Like he will have to retire and take a position with the franchise elsewhere.

I agree though I just don’t see him getting that gig without putting in a year of coaching (as the QB coach)
He's basically the OC when he is out there.
Would not shock me to see them make that move immediately

wouldn’t surprise me at all either, I was just calling it as I see it. Peyton has the skills to jump right in, but there is the whole earn your keep in coaching too
He's got enough clout with that organization.
I don’t think anyone would feel “slighted” if they went that way.
Check out my site!! Sign up for a free account @

probably not, i think he would do good as an OC, though year 1 and 2 he might get frustrated with who ever is QB (even luck) because they arent game players/strategics like he is/was
Him coaching Luck for 2 years and then moving up to the booth is frightening

Maybe.
If he can teach Luck to throw a deep ball accurately.

He’s been a team doctor for a long long time and he said something like that with one hit could cause paralysis and Manning prob would be advised against any kind of return.

I'm still shocked that the Colts made that deal with him
I guess it was a “thank you” for services rendered.
I think at the time, his agent was telling them he'd be back for sure.
Kind of a verbal type of agreement. And now, all the details of the injury are coming out now.

And now, Manning's pride is telling him he can comeback when his body and doctors are prob telling him no.

aren't most of us though?
I can see how he’d obivously be at a greater risk.
I forgot how old he was…. apparently Jim Harbaugh was the last Colts QB before Peyton!!!!
Dunno, don't kill the messenger...
Just giving you some words of a professional team doctor. I mean, baseball is different from football… but I am taking what he said at face value.

I ain't going to kill you or your brother in law
Just thought all players are in danger of serious injury on every play…. I just also forgot how old Manning was. (older = more injury prone)
But quarterback’s in good condition can withstand a blind side hit. One with a severe neck injury… little different story considering whiplash effects and all that. Neck nerves and discs are nothing to mess with.

No I understand that
and I agree that Manning is at more risk than others.
But that phrase “he’s only one hit away” is a pet peeve of mine, because it’s used to sound like you have something insightful to say about a player when really, it applies to all players
It is insightful when it comes from the mouth of a doctor who works with pro athletes I believe.

That would suck , love watching him play ...!!
I'm your " Huckelberry "...it's just my game ...Jimmy Raye your no daisy ...!!
yeah is a solid HoF’er, though against the Niners he made cringe (but I suspect all fans of opponents teams felt that way)
Well, i love watching Favre play too , i really appreciate the skill level of most players in the NFL ...!!
I'm your " Huckelberry "...it's just my game ...Jimmy Raye your no daisy ...!!
he might have to retire
not die
Coach Raye crazy man. Says Yahoo in our training camp,We Didn’t know we had Wifi,cOach Sing says he likes UpGut.com. Bish! - Anthony Dixon
Great game called offensively by Greg today
and performed brilliantly by Alex
Alex Smith 86%+ QB rating with 22+ TDs this season, hopefully! :)
Those first two drives had me grinning ear to ear
The toss to Ginn, the deep plays, the running game.
Everything was humming perfectly and they had Tampa off balance from the start. Never recovered. Just a thorough out-coaching the likes we haven’t seen in over a decade.
Don Banks
They may never admit to it, but I think we all know the Cardinals overpaid for Kevin Kolb. In trade value and salary compensation. The beguiling Eagles backup quarterback syndrome has struck again. After watching Kolb for five games as the guy in Arizona, what exactly is he really good at? When Donovan McNabb is the best former Eagles quarterback on the field, as he was in Minnesota’s easy win over the Cardinals, you know it has not been a good day for Kolb.
I'm no Kolb fan either
but I would give him more time and an offseason. I will not forget who came to our nuggets and blew it up when Ninjames said that Kolb blows
metamorphosis
it was an epic nuggets that day that Manraj7 and I highjacked after Ninjames got grilled for not “watching” every Kolb pass
http://www.ninersnation.com/2011/3/9/2039347/golden-nuggets-barber-burress-and-the-49ers
All i saw was a buch of kitty pic's from Manraj # 7 ...!!
I'm your " Huckelberry "...it's just my game ...Jimmy Raye your no daisy ...!!
Dang , ( bunch ) ... !!
I'm your " Huckelberry "...it's just my game ...Jimmy Raye your no daisy ...!!
Wow, that's some crazy traffic on the Nuggets
the only time I saw that happen was post-Harbaugh hiring
what do you think if Arron Rodgers
got the same football up bringing as Alex?
Or vice versa
3+ years riding the bench behind a HoF'er
does wonders
too hypothetical
I just sit back and enjoy watching a good quarterback play and am delighted to see AleX play at a top level
Rodgers would be retire due to , too many concussions ...!!
I'm your " Huckelberry "...it's just my game ...Jimmy Raye your no daisy ...!!

this year, better than most so-called elites
WOW WOW WOW
I was at the game, and must say today’s game brought so many memories of the Steve Young/ Jeff Garcia Eras… Who the F needs Andrew Luck? Not us… We got the Coach who created him!
This year, I don’t think there is anyone who can beat them.

I doubt it, idiot move by him today almost had a fumble trying to get his arse up to celebrate his first down, I hate when players do that.

At a quick glance, the Niners have the best point differential in the entire league
Strange season this is turning out to be.
I mean, after FA, if someone had told you the biggest CB signing would be Carlos Rogers (I admit Joseph is debatable, but I’ll give the upper hand to Carlos for 3 game changing interceptions)… wouldn’t you have had them committed?
Or that Alex would far and away be the best QB and Bradford would be terrible?
Or that the Niners would be 4-1?
Fun season.
Carlos Rogers >>> Jonathon Joseph and Nnamdi Asomugha

Yeah I know
He has been slowly writing better things week by week. We went from the team that beats bad teams to the slightly better team that beats bad teams lol.
Really?
Bengals don’t look so bad, we beat them. Tampa was 3-1 coming in… and the Eagles have the most talented roster in the NFL. They’re just being out-coached by everyone’s offense.

Story of year...Alex Smith meets Aaron Rogers in NFC Championship game
Can it become a reality…..stay tuned for rest of this season!
1 more week
1 more week equals 2 for Edwards. The 49ers have a bye after Detroit.
Morgan was getting started
TJ Housh is out their also but it will only be one game against detroit with three recievers then the bye and then edwards returns.
Alex Smith Vs Aaron Rodgers can happen in the NFC Championship game
its pretty crazy, but it can happen because other than the Packers their is no other consistent team in the NFC, other than the saints maybe. With the way the niners are playing they can beat the bears, falcons or even the saints. We will have to wait and see.
