49ers Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)
On Oct. 26, San Francisco 49ers interim coach Mike Singletary made a public spectacle out of tight end Vernon Davis.
After Davis caught a 7-yard pass and was called for unnecessary roughness during a decisive 49ers defeat to the Seattle Seahawks, Singletary removed Davis from the game.
Then, he benched him.
Then, he sent him to the locker room at the start of the fourth quarter.
And, as if that were not enough, Singletary went on a tirade in which he questioned Davis' commitment to the team.
But Davis and Singletary have clearly patched up their differences. As the 49ers head to Texas Stadium to face the Dallas Cowboys, it is Davis who is considered Singletary's biggest vocal supporter in the 49ers' locker room. "I want coach Singletary...

Martz, Singletary team up to educate 49ers QB Hill (AP)Mike Singletary and Mike Martz have developed a classic good-coach, bad-coach routine when it comes to Shaun Hill. After Martz is done hammering on every aspect of the San Francisco 49ers quarterback's game at practice, Hill often stops by Singletary's office to re-inflate his confidence. "Mike (Martz) can beat him up, and he needs every drop of it," interim coach Singletary said of his offensive...

Rams lose Pace, Incognito, Bartell to injuries (AP) St. Louis left tackle Orlando Pace left the Rams' game against the San Francisco 49ers in the first half Sunday because of an injured ligament in his knee, which could sideline the seven-time Pro Bowl lineman for a significant time.

Niners snap 6-game skid vs. Rams (AP)
After Shaun Hill flung himself across the goal line to score the third touchdown in the 49ers' 28-point second quarter, he flipped the ball to center Eric Heitmann for the celebratory spike. Humbled and educated by several seasons as a backup, Hill just doesn't see himself as an extraordinary Joe -- even though Joe Montana is the only other San Francisco quarterback who ever did what Hill...

Niners say RB Gore should play Sunday (AP)Frank Gore thought he had a concussion. The San Francisco 49ers say their star running back is just confused. Gore, the NFL's sixth-leading rusher with 728 yards and four touchdowns, missed his second straight practice Thursday.

Bruce ready to face former team for first time (AP)
The St. Louis Rams released Isaac Bruce after 14 seasons last winter, and current players don't want him getting too frisky in his first game as an opponent. Bruce caught the winning touchdown pass in the Rams' lone Super Bowl victory after the 1999 season, and was with the franchise so long he bridged the gap to 1994, his rookie year and the franchise's final season on the West Coast.

Warner rallies Cardinals past 49ers (AP)
The Arizona Cardinals accomplished something they hadn't done since the team moved to the desert 20 years ago. They won on Monday night. So what if it was a struggle down to the wire? This victory felt just fine to a franchise that has had oh-so-little to cheer about for decades. Kurt Warner's ageless arm and an improbable goal-line stand at the finish saved the Cardinals from an ugly loss on a...
