SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — The San Francisco 49ers can’t get Frank Gore off the field.
But with the Pro Bowl running back remaining healthy and productive, nobody is complaining. Gore is on pace for another tremendous season, and after a rocky start the San Francisco offense finally is feeding off the exploits of its backfield star.
Gore lifted the offense around him last week against the Oakland Raiders, rushing for a season-high 149 yards to lead the 49ers to their first victory after a 0-5 start.
While San Francisco’s offense finally appears to be going in the right direction, Gore has been going that way all season.
