Golden Nuggets: 49ers in London; Coach Harbaugh Gets Mystical

As you well know, the 49ers are in London right now. It's creating a bunch of non-news, to be honest. Lawrence Okoye talks to the British media and Coach Harbaugh is eager to show the team the sights are a few examples of the headlines. Add in the fact that we're playing the Jacksonville Jaguars, one of the worst teams in recent years, and you can see how there's little football substance to report on. I'm keeping it short and sweet today due to time constraints. I hope you understand!

Here's the links...

49ers in London

Here is a story that explains the whole enchilada, including a media schedule. Lawrence Okoye is getting some press for the first time since the preseason. There's a photo gallery of the team in London as well. | 49ers ‘much fancied' to beat Jaguars; Okoye, Tomsula to meet media (Branch)

The 49ers aren't the only ones in London. Cam Inman joins them, and appears to be keeping a diary. | Day 1, Royal Mail: Never trick-or-treat in a locals' pub (Inman)

Harbaugh Speaks!

It's good to see the team is looking toward an Aldon Smith return this season, even if it's our ever-optimistic Coach Harbaugh. | Harbaugh remains 'hopeful' on Aldon Smith (Gin)

Here's the full transcript of Coach talking. | Harbaugh: "It was good to be in the fray. Got stepped on. Got cleated in the foot. And that felt good too." (Cohn - Transcript)

49ers vs Titans

BASG has all your GIF needs from last Sunday's victory. I'll never get tired of watching Darryl Morris light up ol' what's his name, then Kassim Osgood out-hustling two Titans to get the ball for the score. Just when Tennessee was getting back in the game! BLAMMO! | Remember the Titans (game): Gore tries Kaepernicking, Boldin's one-handed catch and more GIFs (BASG)

Other News

Here's the round-up from the division's other teams. The big news was, of course, Sam Bradford suffering a season-ending injury. The Rams looked to be floundering on offense this year, but Bradford was the lone bright spot on offense. Without him, they might even go winless the rest of the way....have they played the Jags already? | NFC West Report: Sam Bradford out for Season (49ers.com)

Will the 49ers make a move before the trade deadline? Would you want them to? All the rumors I've seen have them linked to a WR. I don't believe any of them. The only one I'd take is Josh Gibson Gordon. Any receiver would take a while to integrate into the offense, and at least he's under contract for the future. Hakeem Nicks is injury prone and will be an FA upon season's end. Kenny Britt now....ummm.... | Trade deadline approaching for 49ers (ESPN)
