Originally posted by SoCold:Horse crap that Trent never talked to Gore. He went elsewhere for more money and playing time. You can cite imaginary scenarios all you want. And no one, including me ever said Gore wasn't better than winkin, blinkin, and nod that we picked up off the street. Amazing how easy it Is to tell who will get injured after the season is played. Brilliant analysis, if only you were the GM making last year's decisions now, we would be a much better team.

I hope they continue the negative overreactions to camp bodies being signed, its great posting material
I'm guessing your middle and last name is, Texas...Ranger...b/c you "get it" like Chuck Norris.
How Trent handled the RB situation made zero sense. He didn't resign Gore why? Cause he's older and wanted to save money, bottom line. He thought he could replace Gore's production with Hyde. Of course you can't predict injuries but there was no guarantee that Hyde could handle a full 16 games as the #1 back either.
Should have just spent a few millions more to keep Gore and had both of them split carries.
Hyde/Gore >>>> Hyde, Bush, and the 12 other guys they ended up using.
Of course some will just say that Gore was old and not worth it. We have Hayne so we good LOL. That's not foolish or anything.

All of that is complete horsepucky. And has zero to do with signing a camp body. Gore wasn't splitting carries. PERIOD. We couldn't have forecast what happened to Hyde. G
So you disagree that the combo of Hyde and Gore would not have been as good as Hyde and Bush?
How do you know?
In 2014 Gore had 250+ Carries, Kap just over 100 and Hyde had around 80.
I know you can't predict injuries that's exactly what I said. The point is about what 2 players we could have had/keep vs the players they signed.
You can try to rewrite history all that you want, but 2014 was partly why Gore wanted to leave and be the featured back on a team. Make up what ever nonsense you want to but Gore wasn't staying if he could go somewhere and be the top dog featured back. Of course if magic happened Gore might have been better than Bush. Or he might have had a similar accident happen as long as we are playing fairy tales. And even if Gore was here magically, with the line we had, the piss poor play out of Kaepernick in the early going, and certainly on slightly better play from Gabbert, the opposing defenses were stuffing runners fairly easily. It would have changed things only slightly in the scheme of the dumpster fire season. But again, we had zero realistic chance to keep Gore. You can ignore reality if you wish and start down the fictious road that we could have paid him more, ignoring the cap situation prior to the mass retirements, but it isn't believable.
Interesting. Not sure where you get your facts from but Gore told ESPN in an interview that he just wanted Trent to talk to him about a possible return to the team and to be able to compete for the starting job with Hyde.
Trent never talked to Gore about a return. So he signed elsewhere. That's not Frank Gore's fault the 49ers didn't want him anymore.
Gore went to a team that lost their starting QB and had OL problems all year. He also had better production than all 9 of the RB we used.
I'm not rewriting anything. I just know that Frank Gore is a better player than 8 of the guys we used to try and replace his production on the field.
