The San Francisco 49ers and Dallas Cowboys released their final injury reports for Sunday's throwback rivalry game and there aren't any real surprises. Michael Crabtree and Dashon Goldson are both listed as questionable after spending the week being limited in practices. Goldson and Crabtree both took part in practice, but in poking around the twitterverse with the beat writers, it sounds like neither is particularly sure what Sunday holds.
The Cowboys are particularly banged up for this game as they will be without Terence Newman and Orlando Scandrick at cornerback and are doubtful to have starting left guard Bill Nagy. Dez Bryant remains questionable with a quadricep injury and the latest news had Jerry Jones unsure of his status. This is of some significance as Jones had said all week that Bryant would be able to play.
Bryant has a quad injury like Steven Jackson, who it appears is likely to miss Monday's game. The difference is that Bryant's quad injury involves more of a bruise while Jackson's is a strain. From my moderate understanding of the two injuries, a strain is more likely to be aggravated on the field. I'm hoping Bryant sits out, but if the 49ers secondary has to deal with him, so be it.
And of course thanks to bignerd for providing an improved first aid symbol, which was even saved as "better" in the file.

WR
Activate Kyle Williams. Alex Smith must throw the ball many times.

Kyle W has been my
guy of interest – big upside for what has been SF’s vin ordinaire unit.

They do, but it seem like in that Sunday Night game
Romo was favoring Dez over everyone including Witten at times
Indeed
Had he gone to Witten more, they probably would have won. Let’s hope he doesn’t figure that out this week, because of the very few defenders in the NFL who match up well on Witten, none of them play for our team.

ummm...did you forget about Austin-Witten-F.Jones-Romo?
With or without Dez Bryant….this game will be far from any cake walk.
9ers gotta buckle up and bring their A+ game to win this one.
It's Witten who worries me the most
Whitner & the LB’s will have to be amazing in coverage when it comes to him; to me he is Romo’s most important weapon. It seemed like when Dez was on the field he was getting all the attention from Romo but the Dallas Offense goes as Witten goes.
Withner on WItten
and double Austin.

He's still their #2 receiver you know this right?
Austin is still the guy that’s actually produced at the NFL level as a WR
Gimme 1 round!

Their passing attack crumbles after Dez goes out

Behind Santonio Holmes the Jets Wr's are suspect at best
the best wideout is a guy who has been in jail for the last 2 years and still Sanchez threw over 300 yards against that Defense. All season the Dallas defense will have to defend TE’s as freakishly athletic as VD & Delanie Walker, those DB’s & LB’s will have to cover them and that is a matchup that Alex will have to exploit.
I’ll take our receivers against their 2nd best Corner (who has a banged up shoulder) & their 4th & 5th best Corners.
Plus those safeties are average at best.
The 49ers Offense isnt geared to the deep passing game but that short to intermediate passing game can be really effective if used properly.
But like since its been since Frank Gore came onto the scene, the offense is centered around the run game. If the team runs the ball effectively then it will open up the passing lanes for Alex
Have to remember the 49ers passing offense still trying to wake up from a 6 year coma. It might be Week 6-10 before they are actually better.
Coma? I think it was Brain Dead for the last 6 years
I agree with you but that doesnt mean that they still can’t have an effective day against that defense. They just have to keep the game close & Romo off the field. Alex doesnt have to have huge numbers to exploit that defense or secondary, if they rectify that 1-13 on 3rd down then they can stay on the field and keep the defense fresh enough to consistently pressure Romo
Plax >> Holmes
Took Sanchez 3 friggin quarters to realize this though.
Gimme 1 round!

Well if Bryant does play while still being hurt
it might benefit the Niners, because we saw the result of a jogging Dez on the field last week
Goldson
I’m hoping he plays it will be awesome to see him and whitner back tgere

Ahhh yaaaaaa!
Much, much better … was a pet peeve of mine. Obvious degradation in the old graphic. Either was a bad copy of a copy Michael Keaton style wearing a rubber glove and ski goggles on his head or at some point was saved under the wrong file format. No more bleeding, fuzzy red with some pixel-ated pink. mcwagner can go hide in Switzerland.
THE WAY I SEE IT
Still a tough game here. Its time to see if the coaching can find away to ust the talent it has

Why treat Crabtree & Goldson special?
Clearly the both are not 100% healthy therefore very good chance if they are active for Cowboys game they more than likely wont make it through the WHOLE game and/or be limited in their effectiveness.
Come Coach… You have a 100% HEALTHY Kyle Williams who is itching to get in a game and PROVE to YOU, that he should NEVER be in-active on game day. Throw the guy a bone.
What has Michael Crabtree done to convince you a he is more effective even half broken over a fully healthy Kyle Williams?
What you guys say?
Williams
He’s seen Williams in practice so it’s not like he’s just ignoring the guy at this point.
by David Fucillo on Sep 16, 2011 4:45 PM PDT up reply actions
But coach does appear to be playing a bite of a favorite to Crabtree...
If his foot is not 100% why in the world should he be active over healthy Kyle Williams?
This question I would love to have anyone give their best answer to…anyone?

Given that Harbaugh doesn’t give much away to the media, any answer you get will be pure speculation.

I heard that when Williams is playing that the coaches close their eyes so they don't see him play.

I'd love to see what Williams can do,
I just can’t see him getting a fair chance as long as [site decorum] Alex Boone is around ruining everything for everyone.

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.
How are they getting special treatment exactly?
Because they are listed as questionable and not straight up listed as out?
No reason to tell Dallas they aren’t playing, not that it would change much for em.
BLOWOUT 49ers -we've got our MOJO back!
This is a blowout game for us. The boys have the hungry look, Eye of the tiger. They mean business and thanx to the coaches too,they are true winners.49ers are back West Coast Offense like no othet just check our archives.Cowboys would need a miracle to win this one.

A 40 point blowout of the Cowboys
Will certainly get the 49ers ignored from the halftime highlights on Monday Night Football.
Cowboys are self proclaimed "America Team".....so
win or lose, this game will make the highlights. I just hope the highlights show 9ers kicking the boys butts and not the 9ers butts being handed to them.
2 more days to Game Time…. get your popcorn ready and lets roll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
