Wed, 15 May 2013 11:17:03 -0700 San Francisco 49ers general manager Trent Baalke said he believes in using multiple running backs that can do different things on offense. "I'm a big believer -- we are big believers -- in a three-headed approach," Baalke said. "In other words, having a group of backs that bring to the table something a little bit different than the other one so you can do a lot of different things. But also having those backs be able to do enough things the same so you don't become so predictable on game day." RBs Frank Gore, Kendall Hunter and LaMichael James likely will see playing time this season. Fantasy Tip: All three running backs likely will receive playing time this season and could have fantasy value during the season. Gore likely will receive the majority of the carries and should be seen as a mid to weak No. 2 running back option. James and Hunter could be late-round fliers in drafts because of their expected roles on offense.
Tue, 14 May 2013 21:05:08 -0700 Miami Dolphins RB Lamar Miller has been working out with San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore during the offseason. Gore, a fellow University of Miami alum, counseled Miller on lessons learned in the NFL. Miller said Tuesday, May 14, he is staying at 215 pounds, but adding more muscle mass. Fantasy Tip: Miller is viewed by some as having a leg up in the competition for the starting tailback job in Miami, although Daniel Thomas is not ready to go quietly. Whoever emerges as the top dog will be a low-end RB2 or flex fantasy option in most formats.
Mon, 04 Feb 2013 10:19:10 -0800 The San Francisco 49ers were the first team in Super Bowl history to have a 300-yard passer, a 100-yard rusher and two 100-yard receivers in the game. QB Colin Kaepernick threw for 302 yards, RB Frank Gore rushed for 100 yards, WR Michael Crabtree recorded 109 receiving yards and TE Vernon Davis recorded 104 receiving yards.
Mon, 04 Feb 2013 07:55:09 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore did not take issue with the team's offensive playcalling in their final series of Super Bowl XLVII. With first-and-goal from the Baltimore Ravens seven-yard-line, the 49ers handed off on first down to RB LaMichael James, who gained two yards, then ran three consecutive passing plays, on which QB Colin Kaepernick targeted WR Michael Crabtree. Gore was on the field for the final three plays, but said he wasn't second-guessing the play selection. Gore had 19 carries for 110 yards and a touchdown in the game. "That's why we've got coaches," Gore said. "Every player wants the ball at that time. But our coaches made the decision and we tried our best to make it happen."
Mon, 04 Feb 2013 06:01:34 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore said following Super Bowl XLVII his team deserved a better fate in the game. "They got away with one," Gore said of the Baltimore Ravens. "We showed we were the better team. It was just a couple plays here, a couple plays there."

Thu, 24 Jan 2013 09:58:06 -0800 Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said Thursday, Jan. 24, the key to containing San Francisco 49ers QB Colin Kaepernick in Super Bowl XLVII is to not let him get to the outside, in addition to tacking him when the opportunity arises. "We're going to have to tackle him. We're going to have to keep him inside of our defense," Harbaugh said. "We're not going to be able to run past him. He's fully capable of putting 200 yards on you, just as capable as Frank Gore is or any of their running backs. He's not just an integral part of their passing game, he's a huge part of their run game. We'll have a plan for it. Assignment football is going to be really important for us. Change-ups are going to be important for us. We just have to play well against him."
Wed, 23 Jan 2013 19:30:35 -0800 The San Francisco 49ers did not practice Wednesday, Jan. 23, but they were required to release an estimated injury report for Super Bowl XLVI. LB NaVorro Bowman (shoulder), RB Frank Gore (ankle, shoulder), LB Clark Haggans (shoulder), OG Mike Iupati (shoulder), RB LaMichael James (back), DT Justin Smith (elbow, triceps) and LB Patrick Willis (shoulder) would have been full participants if the team had practiced.

Sun, 20 Jan 2013 18:18:15 -0800 Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Doug Martin has been added to the NFC Pro Bowl roster, replacing San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore. Fantasy Tip: Martin is the fourth RB in franchise history to go to the Pro Bowl, joining Mike Alstott (1997-2002), Warrick Dunn (1997, 2000) and James Wilder (1984). Martin is also the first Bucs rookie to go to the game since former KR Clifton Smith (2008).

Thu, 17 Jan 2013 16:33:28 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore (knee) fully participated in practice Thursday, Jan. 17.
Wed, 16 Jan 2013 18:03:45 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore (knee) was able to practice fully Wednesday, Jan. 16. Fantasy Tip: Gore will be facing an Atlanta Falcons run defense which ranked 23rd in the NFL during the regular season, and one which allowed 123 yards on the ground to the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC Divisional Round last weekend. That makes Gore a strong fantasy play in all postseason pools.
Sun, 13 Jan 2013 00:08:46 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore posted his first 100-yard rushing game during the playoffs against the Green Bay Packers in the team's NFC Divisional Round playoff win.

Mon, 07 Jan 2013 08:54:03 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore is averaging 5.4 yards per carry when QB Alex Smith starts at quarterback and just 3.9 yards per carry when QB Colin Kaepernick starts.
Sun, 06 Jan 2013 18:45:16 -0800 Green Bay Packers defensive coordinator Dom Capers felt facing Minnesota Vikings QB Joe Webb in the NFC Wild Card game was a good preview for next week's matchup against the San Francisco 49ers and QB Colin Kaepernick, also a mobile quarterback. The 49ers also have a powerful back in RB Frank Gore. "Well I think there is some value because I think there are some similarities," Capers said.
Sat, 05 Jan 2013 05:14:16 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore was fined $10,500 for throwing the football into the stands following a touchdown in Week 17.
Sun, 30 Dec 2012 21:21:32 -0800 San Francisco 49ers QB Colin Kaepernick, OG Mike Iupati, RB Frank Gore and WR Michael Crabtree were each lifted early in Week 17 win against the Arizona Cardinals for added rest.
Fri, 28 Dec 2012 17:37:55 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore (knee) was listed a full participant in practice Friday, Dec. 28, and he is probable for the Week 17 game against the Arizona Cardinals.
Thu, 27 Dec 2012 17:02:51 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore (knee) fully participated in practice Thursday, Dec. 27.
Thu, 27 Dec 2012 07:29:55 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore, who had just six carries in Week 16, has been adjusting his game since the team went from QB Alex Smith to QB Colin Kaepernick at quarterback. Using the pistol formation more frequently changes the way Gore approaches the running game. "Some plays you just don't know if he's going to keep (the ball) or not," Gore said of Kaepernick. "I've got to be patient and can't hit the hole that fast in the pistol." Gore has 123 carries for 682 yards and four touchdowns with Smith at quarterback this season, compared to 115 carries for 464 yards and three scores with Kaepernick.
Wed, 26 Dec 2012 18:02:42 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore (knee) was listed as a full participant in practice Wednesday, Dec. 26.
Mon, 24 Dec 2012 04:16:14 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore had just 28 yards on six carries in Week 16 against the Seattle Seahawks after rushing for a season-high 131 yards, in addition to 51 receiving yards, when the teams met in Week 7.
Fri, 21 Dec 2012 18:14:47 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore (wrist) practiced fully for the third consecutive day Friday, Dec. 21. He is listed as probable for the Week 16 game against the Seattle Seahawks. Fantasy Tip: Gore had 16 carries for 131 yards in the first meeting in Week 7, and he added 51 receiving yards on five catches in the win. It was his most yardage from scrimmage against Seattle since 2009. He remains a must-start fantasy option in all leagues despite having just two 100-yard rushing performances against the Seahawks in the past 10 meetings.

Wed, 05 Dec 2012 06:46:02 -0800 Although San Francisco 49ers RB LaMichael James appears closer to seeing game action, RB Frank Gore said James still has some learning to do. Gore is doing what he can to get James up to speed, particularly learning how to play with a slower pace. Gore said James runs at full-tilt all the time. "In college, there's a big space. But not here. He has a tough time with that," Gore said. "I told him, 'It's not how fast you are. It's about patience and how fast you can get through it.' I told him that he had to let things develop."
Tue, 04 Dec 2012 12:44:26 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore (hand, wrist) was wearing a brace on his hand and wrist Tuesday, Dec. 4. Gore said it was not an issue, and he could play right now if he had to.
Sun, 02 Dec 2012 18:12:21 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore carried 23 times for just 58 yards in the Week 13 overtime loss against the St. Louis Rams, although he was able to get into the end zone.
Fri, 30 Nov 2012 15:07:54 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore (wrist, ribs) fully participated in practice Friday, Nov. 30, and is probable for Week 13.
Thu, 29 Nov 2012 17:18:44 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore (ribs, wrist) fully participated in practice Thursday, Nov. 29.
Thu, 29 Nov 2012 12:42:49 -0800 Even though San Francisco 49ers RB LaMichael James hasn't been active for any games this year, he may have the best shot to become the backup to RB Frank Gore. James and QB Colin Kaepernick ran a zone-read offense effectively together in the preseason, and James ran a similar offense in college at Oregon. However, James has spent almost all of his practice time on the scout team this year, and he hasn't had much experience in special teams, which could hurt his chances. RB Anthony Dixon has been active every game this year because he is vital to the special teams. RB Brandon Jacobs doesn't make any special teams contributions either, so if James is active over Dixon, the team will have two backup running backs who don't contribute on special teams.
Wed, 28 Nov 2012 18:47:13 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore (ribs, wrist) was able to take part in a full practice session Wednesday, Nov. 28.
Wed, 28 Nov 2012 17:33:30 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore will continue to see the majority of touches with RB Kendall Hunter (Achilles') done for the year, and RBs Anthony Dixon, Brandon Jacobs, LaMichael James and Jewel Hampton are also available to pitch in. James may be the most intriguing because he provides the best change of pace to Gore. "He's a guy similar to (Saints running back Darren) Sproles. He can still carry the ball up inside. I know he's anxious to get out there and play," S Donte Whitner said.
Sun, 25 Nov 2012 21:49:32 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore carried 19 times for 83 yards in the Week 12 win against the New Orleans Saints. He added two receptions for 18 yards and a touchdown.

Thu, 22 Nov 2012 20:18:59 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore (ribs, wrist) was able to practice fully Thursday, Nov. 22.
Wed, 21 Nov 2012 17:31:43 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore (ribs, wrist) was able to practice without any restrictions Wednesday, Nov. 21.
