Takeo Spikes News

I'm looking out the window of the Packers press box, and I'm writing words that have rarely been uttered in Green Bay in late November: It's a beautiful day.

Sunday, November 22, 2009 at 9:56 a.m. GREEN BAY, Wis. - San Francisco 49ers linebacker Takeo Spikes is inactive for Sunday's game against the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field.

Goood morning everyone. Today I've got plenty of links for you, a couple previews, some audio clips, some interviews and notes and all that good stuff.

He was an assistant with Tampa Bay when the Bucs played in Lambeau Field on Dec.

Without a game to play last weekend, 49ers offensive coordinator Jimmy Raye switched on the Packers-Cowboys showdown from the comfort of his living room.

Linebacker Takeo Spikes is listed as day-to-day with a strained hamstring incurred in the Chicago game, coach Mike Singletary said Tuesday.

Hey, should we get back to talking football? The 49ers were back at work Tuesday in full pads for an immense task in Green Bay on Sunday, a place the 49ers haven't won since 1990.

Earlier in the season, defensive end Justin Smith said emphatically that teammate Aubrayo Franklin was the best nose tackle in the NFL.

He is the unknown soldier. If you know who Matt Wilhelm is, you're probably spending way too much time studying the 49ers.

' boast obviously made it all the way to the Windy City. Bears defensive end sought out the 49ers ' quotable tight end during warm-ups Thursday night.

The 49ers won't have LB Takeo Spikes for the rest of the game, and Bears TE Desmond Clark also won't return, reports NFL Network's Jason La Canfora.

Forget about the Chicago defensive line. Here is what Vernon Davis and the 49ers really need to destroy tonight: Their own stupid mistakes.

TWO MONTHS ago he was the head man in charge of charisma, equal parts football coach and religious figure.

Matt Barrows of the Sacramento Bee looks at what might have been if the 49ers could have acquired Lance Briggs from the Bears.

Tight end Vernon Davis says the San Francisco 49ers will take care of business against the Chicago Bears in Thursday night's game.

Such as Mike Singletary and Jeff Fisher. In 1981, Singletary and Fisher were rookie teammates on the Chicago Bears.

This is it for the 49ers. Even though head coach Mike Singletary has said that all games are a "must win", not just this game, the team understands that a loss against the Titans on Sunday could detour them from playoff hopes.

Tight end Vernon Davis said the attitude reflects the players' belief that they can compete with anybody, which the 49ers showed in close defeats at Houston and Indianapolis.

Jimmy Raye once identified Rich Gannon as the quarterback who best fit his system.

For the first time this season, the 49ers will face a quarterback who is as dangerous with his legs as he is with his arm.
