If there are any issues with either stream, I’ve embedded the beat writer Twitter list below, so you can see what they have to tweet out. They also have a playmaking safety in Eric Reid, who can turn a ball game in an instant. “We feel like we can see the execution, we can see the potential to make the ball move up and down the field like we want to”. “That’s a huge part of it”. 49ers have forced six turnovers, their most through two games since 2003. Quarterback Blaine Gabbert completed 47 percent of his passes with two fourth-quarter interceptions in a 46-27 loss to Carolina last week. By contrast, there are five National Football League starting quarterbacks who have completed more than 70 percent of their passes through two games. For example, in the preseason Gabbert threw a pass to the flat, and the running back didn’t run the flat route, leaving Gabbert to throw incomplete to a spot that would have been an accurate throw had the receiver been where he was supposed to be.

However, Kelly is keen on maintaining Gabbert as the team’s starting quarterback. They settled for a field goal.
“I think it’s not always the quarterback”, Kelly said. “Not a lot of people would allow people to come in, especially in-season, but it was good experience for me”. San Francisco lost, 29-13, after Seattle jumped out to a 20-0 lead midway through the second quarter.
“It’s a great place to play”, Gabbert said.
“There’s a lot of factors that go into when a ball is completed or when it’s incomplete”, Gabbert said. “They were in the Super Bowl previous year”.
“When you’re on the road, there’s going to be specific situations in the red zone, key third downs, that the fans are going to be into it”.
Seattle’s offense is another story though. I could go on with how impressed I am in two games with the look of the offense, but you all get the picture.
NINERS managed only 26-65 rushing in Week 2 after running for 150 yards and 3 TDs in Week 1.
Gabbert replaced starter Colin Kaepernick nine games into last season and made his first road start against Seattle in November.
The 49ers have to be better on offense as well.
SEAHAWKS DE Frank Clark had 2 of team’s 3 sacks in Week 2. You know, they try to dictate to you offensively on how you’re going to play based upon how they play. If that happens, I honestly believe that they are two drafts away from being a playoff team, but that is going to be a long time from now.
The 49ers are still adjusting to each other. Kerley has played 101 snaps so far; Streater has been in for 21.

“We haven’t been up to the standards that we’ve set”, Carroll said of his offense in a conference call. “We’re better than that”. The journeyman won the left tackle job in the preseason, where he was a pleasant surprise, but has been largely overwhelmed during the first two games of the regular season.
