Niners Wednesday: Re-tooling for the Ravens

After last Sunday's dismal performance (which I'm still not fully over) the Niners have made some changes to get ready for Baltimore this weekend.

• Most notably they have cut Taylor Jacobs and re-signed Bryan Gilmore. Seems like it doesn't really matter who they're throwing to if Dilfer has no time to get off a pass. But what do I know?

• Matt Barrows disagrees. How about Lelie on a few long routes?

• They are working hard on finding some solutions on the offensive line... and they are looking for a possible 3rd QB to put on the roster. What's Jim Druckenmiller up to these days?
• Trent Dilfer, in the mean time, has been shit-talking Brian Billick. Wait? What's that? J/K!
  

• Matt Mosely says "chill out". It's easy for him, a Cowboys guy to say right now. Let's hope he's right that the Niners have something to prove this weekend. If it's anything like last weekend, all they'll prove is that the playoffs are a serious pipe dream.

• Lot's of people freaking out today due to an ESPN report that Alex Smith is getting a second opinion and considering surgery. Nolan has refuted that story, saying that while Dr. James Andrews is indeed reviewing the MRI it's not because they are considering surgery. He's the best there is, and they'd just be stupid not to see what he has to say. Also his tendons are fine... he tore both ligaments, but those will heal themselves.

These are dark days, huh? Let's get back to the good times:
