Frank Gore Passes Roger Craig For No. 2 On Career Rushing List
While the San Francisco 49ers did have some issues flare up in the passing game, they were downright dominant at times in the first half when rushing the ball. The entire offense grinded to a halt in the second half, but the dominant first half rushing performance was enough to build the...
NN Special: A candid interview with Joe Perry
Earlier today I received an email from 49ers fan Martin Jacobs, who does free-lance writing and has written two books about the 49ers.

What follows is a brief historical summary of the San Francisco 49ers' 1974 season. After the retirement of John Brodie, how would the offense respond? Who would emere, if anybody, as the new quarterback of the future? For a team coming off of a 5-9 season and only appearing to get worse, could...
