Frank Gore, RB, San Francisco 49ersNews | Statistics | Utilization | Depth Chart 49ers | Gore and Norris have rapport Gwen Knapp, of The San Francisco Chronicle, reports San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore tossed then free-agent FB Moran Norris' name on the table to head coach Mike Singletary during last season's exit interviews. "I put a buzz in his ear," Gore said. Gore and Norris, who the 49ers re-signed earlier this year, are best friends on and off the field. The rapport they have built, they say, allows them to read each other on the field and know instinctively how each other will react to a given situation. 49ers | New offense fits Gore better Tom FitzGerald, of The San Francisco Chronicle, reports the San Francisco 49ers' offense under Jimmy Raye may allow RB Frank Gore to achieve his goal of being the best player on the field. "With (offensive coordinator Mike) Martz, we were more finesse, throw the ball deep, get outside," Gore said. "This is more running with my shoulders squared up, a lot of power, a lot of downhill plays." He said the team is trying to be physical. He is also delighted to be reunited with FB Moran Norris as his blocking back. 49ers | To rely on Gore more in 2009 Samuel Lam, of the San Francisco 49ers Examiner, reports San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore should receive at least 300 carries this season under new offensive coordinator Jimmy Raye. 49ers | Gore completely healthy On his Twitter page, agent Drew Rosenhaus tweeted San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore (ankle) is completely recovered from a late-season ankle injury. He is working hard during the offseason, according to Rosenhaus. 49ers | Coffee will be complementary back to Gore San Francisco 49ers head coach Mike Singletary said rookie RB Glen Coffee is a downhill runner and finishes every run. "He has a motor and we're excited about that," Singletary said. Singletary said the team views Coffee as the back to tag-team to starting RB Frank Gore. 49ers | Coffee added The San Francisco 49ers selected Alabama RB Glen Coffee during the third round, pick No. 74 overall. Matt Maiocco, of The Santa Rosa Press Democrat, reports the 49ers had said they wanted a running back to complement starting RB Frank Gore. Coffee appears to be better-suited as short-yardage back. Coffee said he plans to play in the 220-pound range. 49ers | Plan to draft running back Matt Maiocco, of The Santa Rosa Press Democrat, reports the San Francisco 49ers plan to select a running back at some point in the 2009 NFL Draft to complement RB Frank Gore. 49ers | Looking for a compliment for Gore? Michael C. Wright, of The Florida Times-Union, reports San Francisco 49ers head coach Mike Singletary said the team would like a running back to compliment starter Frank Gore. "It would help to have someone come in and share the load," Singletary said. "Maybe someone who has a different style, someone who adds another dimension to our running game." 49ers | Looking to add a bigger RB Mike Sando, of ESPN.com, reports the San Francisco 49ers will look to add a running back that weighs between 215 and 230 pounds in either the draft or free agency to help reduce the workload of RB Frank Gore. 49ers | Gore runs for 58 yards in Week 17 The Associated Press reports San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore had 11 carries for 58 yards during the team's Week 17 game, finishing the year with a franchise-record third consecutive season with 1,000 yards rushing.
