November 16, 2008 Vernon Davis grabbed a two-yard touchdown pass in Sunday's 35-16 loss to the Rams.
Our View:Davis has now scored in two straight games (his only two scores of the year), but unfortunately those were his only two catches of the games.
November 15, 2008 Vernon Davis spent extra time catching passes after Friday's practice, according to the SF Chronicle.
Our View:Perhaps the 49ers intend to utilize Davis more in the passing attack this weekend against the Rams. Davis has been a non-factor in fantasy leagues this season, with only 17 receptions for 214 yards and one score over nine outings.
November 10, 2008 Vernon Davis had just one catch on Monday night, but it was good enough to get him his first touchdown of the season as the 49ers lost 24-29 in Arizona.
Our View:Davis continues to struggle but it seems obvious that he and coach Mike Singletary have ironed out their differences.
November 6, 2008 Coach Mike Singletary indicated that Vernon Davis will remain the 49ers' starting tight end for Week 10 at Arizona, according to the Sacramento Bee. Singletary said, "Oh, yeah. Heck yeah. We do want to win."
Our View:This is encouraging news, but Davis only mustered 16 receptions over eight games and is still yet to score his first touchdown.
October 30, 2008 Not only did 49ers coach Mike Singletary send Vernon Davis to the locker room before the team's game was over last week, he also dropped his pants at halftime and showed the team his rear end for some type of visual aid. After that, he then spoke to the team for a few minutes with his pants around his ankles, according to the Arizona Republic.
Our View:That's just weird. Singletary clearly has passion, but he may want to re-think how he gets his points across. It's possible that the team responds to this type of motivation, but they could also be turned off by it.
