San Francisco’s defense has forced a turnover in three out of its five games this season, but the team is yet to log multiple takeaways in a single contest. The 49ers went 8-8 last season and are now sitting at 1-4 this year.
Babin, 35, was signed September 16 to provide depth and saw action in two games but did not record a tackle. He wouldn’t say for sure if Hyde was going to play, but they would play the injury out like they did with Stewart. We can live with that, ” Harbaugh said.
We had first-and-goal from the 7-yard line or whatever, Staley recalled.
The Baltimore Ravens signed cornerback Shareece Wright and promoted cornerbacks Asa Jackson and Charles James II from their practice squad to fortify their struggling secondary. “That’s huge. And the next thing is, they lost players, but they lost a lot of players that they didn’t expect to lose”, said NFL Network analyst Charley Casserly, a former top executive for the Washington Redskins and Houston Texans.

Reggie Bush, however, could miss the game with the calf strain that’s hampered him throughout the early part of the season. Joe Flacco has thrown for 1,262 yards and six touchdowns this season while Justin Forsett has rushed for 395 yards and a score. In previous games, rookie Mike Davis has gotten most of the backup carries.
