Yesterday we went 4 downs with the 49er offense, today Fooch from Niners Nation returns to go 4 with the Niner defense.
You can check out my 4 downs over there.
The defense seems to pretty solid against the pass, led by a solid pass rush, but the 49er run defense has struggled. Why?

This week I went 4 downs on offense and defense with Fooch of the great 49ers blog Niners Nation.
My answer to his questions are over there.

Midway through Sunday's game Desean Jackson disappeared. That much I think we can all agree on.
Why it happened? That's anyone's guess, including Desean's.
While Jackson found himself ignored in the Eagles offense for most of the game, he found himself surrounded by ...

Who Knew that when Brian Westbrook scored the Eagles' final TD of a 41-37 loss at Dallas Sept. 15, early in the fourth quarter, he would be scoring the last Eagles second-half touchdown for at least 3 weeks? Nothing but four field goals and a safety in three second halves since.

Minutes ago Andy Reid announced at his day
after press conference that Brian Westbrook has fractured ribs.
I'll update as soon as more info about what this will mean comes available. Things going from bad to worse.
In a year where in all likelihood a team will have to be at least 10-6 to make the postseason in the NFC, the Eagles already have 3 losses and lose pretty much every conceivable tiebreaker. They've put themselves squarely behind the 8 ball with this home loss and kicked off their first losing ...
