Been a few weeks, I would like to get back on track.

In the past few weeks we have seen the 49ers go 1-1. Week 1's vistory over the Seahawks, and a week 2 loss to the Cowboys.

In week one the 49ers front 7 came up big, with Starting DEs Ray McDonald & Justin Smith getting in on many plays, along with a surprise in OLB Parys Haralson, who had 2 sacks.

The 49ers defense seemed to be much improved, led by the front 7, they gave the Seahawks a tough time up front in the run game.

Now week 2 loss to the Cowboys in overtime at home was a heart breaker.

After being up 14-0, the Cowboys came up with 3 TD passes to Miles Austin. And in OT, Cowboys PK Dan Bailey, after missing a chip shot early on, kicked a game winning FG.

49ers QB Alex Smith, while not impressive, looked much better than week one. He seemed more confident in himself. Even without WRs Michael Crabtree & Braylon Edwards, Alex had a nice day. Hooking up with 2nd-year WR out of Arizona State, Kyle Williams for a nice TD in the endzone.

The running game, as in week one, looked as a non factor. Frank Gore just can't get it going. Whether it is him wearing down, or if it's the O-Line, they have to get it fixed.

That sums up the past 2 games.

Also some news, as WR Braylon Edwards has surgery, and is expected to be out 3 weeks.

FB Moran Norris, with a fibula injury, is likely out for week 3 in Cincinnati. And Michael Crabtree expects to play sunday.

The 49ers also signed TE Justin Peelle to be the 3rd TE last week, and the 49ers appear to be looking for potential TE/FB with the injury to Norris.

They could use more 2 TE sets, with Walker and Davis at FB type.
