This is the live blog for the second half of the San Francisco 49ers’ Week 1 game against the Minnesota Vikings. I’ll update this frequently with information and analysis from the press box.
8:56 Vikings get the ball first down 7-0.
9:00 Reggie Bush is out for the rest of the game with a calf injury.
9:03 Kenneth Acker tackles Adrian Peterson after a gain of two on third-and-4 from the Vikings’ 46.
9:14 The 49ers burn a timeout to avoid a delay-of-game penalty on third-and-5 from the Vikings’ 11.
9:17 Kaepernick throws low and behind Boldin on third down. Incomplete.
9:18 Phil Dawson makes a 30-yard field goal. 10-0 Niners.
9:20 Cordarrelle Patterson returns the kickoff to the Vikings’ 15.
9:29 Minnesota faces second-and-6 from the 49ers’ 19 when the fourth quarter begins. The Vikings switched to a spread offense and finally are moving the ball.

9:43 Carlos Hyde takes a stretch-zone run to the right, quickly cuts upfield and runs 17 yards untouched for the touchdown. 17-3 Niners.
9:50 Bridgewater sails a pass over Rudolph’s head into Tramaine Brock’s hands, who runs to the Vikings’ 30.

10:02 Aaron Lynch sacks Teddy Bridgewater on fourth-and-8. That was a coverage sack. Bridgewater held the ball because he had nowhere to throw it.
10:05 Hyde gains nine yards on a power run to the right.
10:08 Next play, Hyde gains five on a counter run to the left. The Niners take a knee for the win. Stay tuned for grades.
Damm penalties
Damm
Damn. Crap iphone display…
Bludgeon Bridgewater!!!!!
SHORT
Lets go niners
how do you change the icon? something with the website box?

nice job Kap
Love the play fake in short yardage!
Hayne plane! Nice carry.
all cylinders now
People need to listen to Dilfer.
He missed that penalty with the defender taking McDonald’s helmet off.
nice play action
Damn DOG timeouts
It’s too bad Mike Davis isn’t active. They could use him IMO. I guess they didn’t expect Bush to go down though.
We all saw it coming.
WHY ISNT ELLINGTON GETTING ANY PLAY?!!!!!!!
I could see him on a quick slant here
They’re going TE heavy in the game plan.
They are. I’ve never heard an announcer announce a 13 personnel until this game.
I’m waiting for 14.
Need to get it to Smith or VD
Had an open man ck. held on to long.
I’m very surprised at how much RB work Hayne is getting.
He’s the only option to spell Hyde with Bush out.
At least M. Davis should be active next game which is a plus IMO.
Yup.
Bush out
hyde and ellington are big plat threats. what’s up with torrie smith? no catches???
He has 1 catch for 11 yards.
Oh jeezzzzzzzzzzzzzzz…..
Come on CK!
Lotta work to get to 10 -0
Didn’t set his feet again. Cmon man you’re killing me. I don’t know what it is about the redzone but he and this offense loose their heads in the 20’s smh
So true. Absolutely no composure inside the 20.
Our defense will get a pick soon. Bridgewater will force one.
I’m feeling a turnover myself
Their getting good pressure too.
I don’t mean this as hate. It’s just an observation: Kaep is the same as he was last year. He’s worked hard,and made some improvements with some reads, but he doesn’t have the consistency yet.
Hyde is the beast. Keep running the ball.
Consistency is something you build over time.
I disagree. He his processing the game faster. Just not there yet.
Fan77
You don’t mean to look like a hater, but you do, and it’s because you can’t help yourself, you are a hater. Embrace it.
I hate, with a capital “H” — HATE — Steve Young, and most people on this board rightfully tell me that he was a good QB, but I HATE him because he’s not Joe Montana, and because he took Montana’s job, when he wasn’t as good as Montana. That’s it.
Embrace the hate. You HATE Colin Kaepernick.
Because if there’s one thing I’m sure of, CK looks night and day from last year to this one.
Niners up 10-0. I’ll take it.
no delay of game penalties today, that’s another positive
Wilhoite is doing a good job in run stopping.
Ruh-Roh
Groin?
OH no, not Bowman
Groin. ..I hope it’s just a cup injury….
OMG. Bowman, please be ok.
Damn penalties
have the niners called a screen pass?
Bush would be the rb for that but I guess it would surprise them with Hyde.
I do like the catsuits for the cheerleaders! Jed York did something right!
I’m pretty sure that’s not his call
We need a stop here!
Teddy B. is on fire right now.
Big D!
Good job D!
Let’s get a great return followed by a TD
Alright, lets get a TD and put this game away
We all knew his team would be ragged, but I gotta say without Carlos and Na-Bow we are no where this good. Arrow up for the 49ers. Shaking off the rust and kicking the tires. If Kaepernick avoids turnovers he will ultimately be serviceable as a game manager.
We are still winning
All the TEs. You can tell this is a Chryst offense.
Hyde is running hard
Damn penalties to the win
First down hyde
Hyde is special.
What was that? Back foot throw. …he heard foot steps. Get him in motion already.
First down davis
No horsecollar
Not from the front..
Even Fan has to admit that was a nice play by Kap!
Beautiful 3rd down conversion.
Screen play here?
damn those penalties
Put your head down and drive it Davis
Sorry thought that was 3rd down catch by Davis
Nice catch VD
Touch down
Better play calling!!!! TD 49ers!!!
We don’t suck anymore
The Niners Ain’t dead yet!
Good time to end the trend; 4th Quarter TD!
suddenly the o-line doesn’t suck! Hyde is like a bigger, more athletic Terrell Davis.
And you can’t even say it. Our QB is completing short passes and reading the defense. He’s still not perfect or Aaron Rodgers, but good enough to keep BG on the bench.
I wish Vernon would just lower his shoulder and deliver a hit. That would’ve been a first down. Thank God for Anquan and a brilliant play call.
I think the niners just broke the 2nd half no touchdowns curse!
Yep
It was 4th quarter tds…passing to be specific.
Who asked for our last OC to be fired? ??? Me a few years ago…..
Me too, buddy.
Loll I forgot his name……seriously and don’t remind me.hahahaha
Hyde again!
Not to take anything away from Hyde on that last TD but I could have flown a 747 through the space in the line, too big to even call a hole.
I think that was Staley
Coffee’s right. We should all give big props to the O line.
Yup they’ve been maligned by everyone and they didn’t yield 5 sack or any at this point. Nicely done.
No you are taking something away from Hyde. All off season long you have preached what a mistake it was to get rid of Gore.. All season long I have told you this guy is on a whole other level then Gore. Gore was a great but he is NO WHERE near the talent of Hyde right now.
Sounds like we’re up past someones bedtime.
Sounds like you sound bitter that I was right and you were horribly wrong.
The only one sounding bitter is yourself. Go grab a quote where I’m sounding bitter or haven’t already joked about being wrong. See anyone else trying to make a big deal about it other then you? Let it go, you’re the only one that cares.
Although we have a good history of containing Peterson I think the team is walking into a buzzsaw tonight. He’s the best running back in the league and he hasn’t been this motivated to make a statement since his rookie year or since coming back from his injury. It’s going to take another injury(truly not hoping for that, just saying) to keep Peterson under 130 yards rushing tonight. I think he’ll have at least 2 scores as well. Once Peterson is scorching us that play action pass will start carving up the middle linebackers and safeties and you can expect Teddy to have a pretty decent night as well unless the 49ers have been hiding some super secret pass rush. I originally projected 23-10 but I’m going with 33-17 Vikings instead.
Yep that’s what I said.
Complete and utter poppycock!
You left off my correction: ” I did discover a slight typo I meant to correct and that was when I said Peterson would run for 130+ and 2 TD’s obviously that was supposed to say Hyde. Easy mistake to make.”
The score prediction and victor were the errors in that statement.
Therefore It’s only partial poppycock.
Poppycock is poppycock. Please keep it to a minimum going forward….
Insert awesome joke about a roll of sweet tarts and a bowling alley here
Damn. now they are going to wear these black jerseys all season
Ha ha!
This team is tough. This team has heart!
That drive was huge. Timely.
Great drive!!!!
Hyde is a beast.
Can you guys believe he only got 83 carries last year?
Yeah. Harbaugh is f*cking r*t*rd
If CK play like this all year, we will many games.
*win many games
Hey grant prediction not looking so good…..what about kap looking good so far,finish strong.Hyde is a beast!!!!! To many penalties though
been trying to get an image to work but still haven’t gotten it figured out. maybe next week
Finish the job.
Damn penalties
I’m hoping that drive cooled off the Vikings offense. Or at least made them one dimensional.
The defense is certainly gratified to have Hyde on their team. At least they can catch a blow on occasion. The 49ers east coast run heavy game plan is just the ticket. It appears as though field position does not dictate altering the 49ers’ game plan.
Lolll, I was just going to ask where our turnover was. There it is
My only knock on ck… That spotty footwork. Other than that. He is shaping into a pocket passer. Slowly but surely. He looks so patient. I guess when you have some time it comes easier.
Tackling is key right now.
Or just intercept the ball. What the hell do I know?
Grant time to start eating crow.
I’m in a generous mood. I’ll give him his props for Ellington as PR
And Grant did say Hyde could lead the league in rushing. He’s got a couple things working for him.
T.Brock!
Who’s got the best #28? Carlos peterson?
Ha! Good one.
You should use it for your avatar. Hurry! Before everyone else does!
Yeah I have figure that out again…loll I don’t remember how to change it
There you go… ck’s reverse dunk last year pays off with that swat down.
i wanna see a 4th quarter TD pass for kaep.
Go for it
YES!
GRANT – I am looking forward to the article in the morning. “5 reasons I was wrong for predicting the Vikings would win!”
380 yards of offense with Hyde having 151 of those yards!
Davis and Hunter are going to have to spell Hyde more in future games. Tonight with only Hayne on the bench there wasn’t enough rest.
Agree, but not sure if Hunter will be back this year.
There it is 20 points per game! A solid improvement over last year. Hey it’s progress.
I was almost dead on balls with my RB prediction tonight. I did discover a slight typo I meant to correct and that was when I said Peterson would run for 130+ and 2 TD’s obviously that was supposed to say Hyde. Easy mistake to make.
Wasn’t the first and I expect it won’t be the last. Not sure why you don’t like Mr. Hyde, but when they drafted him, I remember Grant bemoaning the fact he was from the Big 10 and how he wouldn’t amount to anything. I knew he’d be the future in a ZBS and the perfect fit with Kaepernick. The 2 Headed Hydra coming back to bite ya….
I’ve never said I don’t like him.
You should have said #28.
That would have gotten you covered.
Ninermd:
I think this is more or less the same Kaep as last year. He really needs to shorten the release, his footwork and just get more comfortable in the pocket.
It’s going to be a work in progress the whole year and I would rather accept that then have too high expectations.
I see him looking downfield more and not running to fast. Saw some air under some of his throws too. I’m not saying he’s there, but he has improved with Warner. Again the mechanics could use some work, but he’s starting to at least look like a pocket passer.
Geez. Lots of improvements, not the same. But I guess for you to acknowledge a work in progress is something.
You’re an idiot. He just showed the incremental improvement that you’d expect from a quarterback with a run first mentality, and that came from repetitions, desire and hard work….
Even though they made the field goal I’d like to see them go for it there. Coulda kept draining that clock.
That FG all but seals the victory. A turnover on downs would have kept it a two score game plus given them a huge momentum change. The kick attempt was the right call.
Agreed. Perhaps not the sexy call, but the right one.
Don’t see bowman miss tackles like that to often. But you’re entitled Bowmanator
Lynth Party!
Now that’s what I call defense!!
Shut it down!
Lynch Mob baby. Been dominating since the first defensive stand
Five sacks, boys.
U-hu.
Easy money, Vegas.
That’s a bet I’ll take everytime
Let’s bury them with a touchdown.
Need to rest Hyde now,I only hold a 6 point lead in fantasy and they have Hyde
Agree but not because of fantasy points. He’s been working real hard; let’s not push our luck. He’s got 163 yards.
I want a49ers win first trust me
Sure, of course, I know that.
If you ain’t lyin, you ain’t tryin!
can’t wait to see the power rankings tomorrow
I was just thinking the same thing. But I want the NFL to keep underestimating us. It could be 2011 all over again!
Hi Grant,
Your prediction (I think it was 23-13 Vikings) was wrong.
Grant was right. Bowman did leave the field — for one play after getting dinged.
In Tomsula we trust.
Great way to start out the season with so much negativity from the offseason. I think the offense will get better each week. Not sure how good the QB pressure really is with a bad Vikings O line but its hard to complain. Really impressed with the O-line opening up holes and actually giving Kap a decent amount of time to throw.
I’ll take this kap over last year kap all day…love Gore but you can clearly see the difference….hyde=beast
Props to Scooter for predicting the 49ers would have more rushing yards than passing yards. I know he’s happy it’s in a win.
The one and only bold prediction of mine that was right :-P
But boy am I happy I was wrong about who would win!
Scooter: When you see the game, I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised by the OL.
I think we all were. A great game plan helped. But now there’s some tape on our boys.
Around 200 yards rushing, only 1 sack… if the box score is any judge then the OL had a great game. Looking forward to watching it tonight. :-)
That ZBS was executed beautifully. They stretched Minnesota wide with lots of TEs and really rode Boone and Staley early.
The sack was on Kaepernick,he ran out of bounds instead of throwing it away.
Smart play calling helped the OL too.
Ok let’s see
Dear Chris Berman:
No matter how many times you call Levi Stadium “The Big Bell Bottom” it’s just not catching on. Please give it up.
It should either be 501 or overalls
It’s the stitch!!! Berman is an idiot
Only criticism I have is that Hyde is still in there with the game in hand.
Tomsula is undefeated
NinerMD Aug 29th “Ck will suck and so will this team. 4 wins would be a miracle.”
NinerMD Week 1 “My only knock on ck… That spotty footwork. Other than that. He is shaping into a pocket passer. Slowly but surely. He looks so patient. I guess when you have some time it comes easier.”
More like Niner DB
At least he’s not letting his previous views cloud his observations. I applaud him for that. Let’s all enjoy this win.
Pre season frustration. We’ve all been there. Let’s go back to my post pre game. Troll. Nice try!
You’re the troll. Your outlook and mouth flutter like a leaf in the breeze. Clown
NinerMD “Oh did I mention how bad the secondary will suck too. Gonna be a looooong season. Bright side?? Probably get a good draft pick and will have tons of money”
Jim Tomsula. Still undefeated.
That was impressive ladies and germs.
one down fifteen to go.
Book it. Good night west coast.
The party’s here on the west side!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hiUuL5uTKc
They seemed to solve the penalty problem in the 2nd half, for the most part.
And they need to repaint the walls in the locker room…
the niners lined up with 3 TEs tonite more often than they did all of last season
wilson73,
He occassionally did the these things you call improvements last year. He still looks uncomfortable. He missed some easy throws, like the one to Boldin. He has to start hitting throws that other QBs can make effortlessly. He makes it look hard.
Hey a win is a win. I’ll take it. Hyde is going to a great back.
The new Offense is more fun to watch, even though the Niners were running a lot of jumbo formations like last year. I would love to see Hyde taking on smaller DBs, with Eillington in the slot.
So is Minnesota’s defense bad or did our oline beast on them?
Watch out, if you try to give the o-line credit CK=average will accuse you of trying to take something away from Hyde.
I’m hoping it was our line. Curious to see there pff grades. I feel like both sides did well especially the left one.
Look back to Hydes long runs, the oline had huge pushes in each of them. This oline deserves a lot of credit.
I agree
Ya Gore looked awesome yesterday! Lol.. Nice prediction bro. Keep it up it bodes well for the Niners season.
Can’t say for sure why without more info, but our O line dominated. Minny may be a tad over rated.
Hyde had the most yards of any RB in week 1. Impressive.
Game ball.
Run the ball, play good defense and you can win a lot of games in the NFL. Outside of Carlos Hyde, tonights MVP’s: Geep Chryst and Mangini. They had their guys ready to play and the play calling was exceptional.
1-0 folks and bring on the Steelers!
Hats off to the coaching staff, the team came to play!
Welp!!! Idk how to
Measure this team yet. Was it a bad Minnesota team? Or are they pretty good.
One thing I know the defense will get a very good test in Pitt next week.
Adios. Till tomorrow.
Niners’ defense will be rated number 1 after week 1 whereas the Seachickens are 31st. It’ll be a nice, Mary-free, week.
Sorry your team lost. Great prognosticator that you are.
Come on guys, you’re being way to easy on Grant and all of his nonsensical predictions. Grant deserves 20 lashings or something. At some point he’s going to realize it’s better to sound smart, than it is controversial. Am I right?
And as of now, Grant sounds like someone who doesn’t understand the very game he covers on this blog. What a shame!
Teddy Bridgewater, Ha! Adrian Peterson, oooh! Still ain’t done crap against the Scarlet and Gold….
Strong d line play makes a huge difference.
Not picking a fight, but do you think Hayne was nervous tonight and does he play next week?
Hayne made the rookiest of rookiest mistakes, he went for a short punt inside the other teams territory. He should have just stepped back, but he lost his head and pursued the ball instead of letting it die. At least he hustled!
He was definitely nervous, but he’ll get better. He should be active next week with Bush injured. Davis will probably be active too so Hayne may get fewer reps at RB. I think he’ll get more chances in the return game, but will split with Ellington.
Yep, I told you Bush wouldn’t last and Davis’ time would come. Activation baby! Hayne made a rookie mistake that surprised the hell out of me. Had to be nerves, not sure what else it could’ve been. I think it would be a mistake not to keep playing him, because by mid season you want him completely comfortable within the offense too. It would behoove Chryst to get Hayne out in space with options, and screens, flat routes….
I thought Reggie would last longer than 2 carries…
I figured they’d get no more than 8 games worth, but I’m really not surprised….
Worry, worry, worry, and a one game dream comes true. Love it. Now next week at 10:00 AM in Pittsburgh on a short week. Worry, worry, worry …
great win! Something to build on….need to clean up the mistakes…..
UK website on Hyde… “he’s Jarryd Hayne’s roommate.”
Let’s hope bush is ok and our oline stays healthy.
Calf strain. I’m looking for Hyde, Davis, and Hayne next week. With Davis getting a healthy amount of carries.
Vikes had 54 plays. A nice low snap count. Just what the doctor ordered for a defense that has to fly 3,000 miles on 6 days rest for a 10am game.
17 completions to 8 different receivers. No interceptions.
I’d like to see a higher YPA and of course TDs.
Perfect summary. I didn’t see alot of WRs open. Maybe they are saving what Logan called “explosion plays” for the Steelers to jack that YPA.
Hopefully the Steelers will load up against the run and Kap will take advantage with play action. They did that today but I’d like to see a couple of downfield connections and some more chunk plays through the air. You know those vintage Kap 25 yard lasers.
Visiting family, and at Halftime we took off for dinner. My brother in law had our waitress check the score before each time she came to the table. It wasn’t too bad to miss the telecast as we watched the sunset from Lava Lava Beach on the Big Island.
We’ll take the win. I’d wondered if the D could contain AP, but I wouldn’t have bet my mortgage on it. Secondary stood up in 1st half while I watched. Must have been ok in 2nd also.
Black uni’s look sick!
Niners looked solid.
I predict that the story moves by mid season from “who they lost” to the young players they have been grafting since 2013-15.
And can we take a break from the Jed York hate? Team and coach look fine.
Black uniforms need to be permanently retired. There looked like a bad high school team, back to there true colors please.
I thought the Black Unis were on point. Now they just need to come out the Starwars Empire theme or just have Vader breathing in the background!
I can put up with the black uniforms it the cheerleaders keep their black cat suits
Hyde just killed it at the podium too!
Hyde just killed it at the podium too!.
Niners looked good particularly the OL. Glad we were able to get control of the game by the second half so we didn’t have to show too much on offense and defense. This will help in our up coming games…which will be a challenge. Let’s not get ahead of our selves just yet. But overall good game against a team we should of beat regardless of sports writer/s predictions.
On a negative note, Hayne doesn’t look like a football player. He still needs time to marinate. Now that Bush can’t be counted on we need to sit Hayne and activate Davis. Also what is the point of activating Patten and not White? White can return punts and kicks too. Maybe give him a chance to show something before Simpson comes back…
Go Niners
Regarding Patton. .. mainly for special teams, if you noticed.
Love the win. That first half was frustrating to say the least. Hope Bush is back soon. We all of a sudden look a bit thin at running back. Wish Davis Was Active Tonight But I Thought Hayne did alright. I was really impressed with his pass blocking.
I also hope they give him another shot at returner. I know he’s kicking him self for that muff, but hey it happens.
Frank who?
Ps.
grant cohn looks hungry.
Who’s got the crow?
I think Kap showed something very important tonight. His willingness to now pass the ball when he could just as easily have run it. He kept his eyes downfield and made some nice passes when the run was also available to him. Pittsburgh will only really be able to gameplan for the niners starting tomorrow, so at least we’re pretty much even there.
He’s improving, and the haters will never admit it until he establishes consistency game by game. Only way to shut them up….
He has a real chance of putting up better pass numbers against that Pitt secondary.
Okay so you finally admit that he wasn’t that good last season, that he needed alot of work, not just a little. Look how excited everyone is because he showed a willingness to pass and not run.
Oh lordy he kept his eyes downfield! What is the world coming to???
He’s supposed to these things. He’s supposed to make the easy throws but he still struggles with them.
But enough about Kaep already.
This team is all about Hyde. Hyde. Hyde.
He was clearly the best player on the field. And he made it look easy.
The O-Line just mashed the Defense, and Geep Chryst is a big improvement over Greg Roman. They were calling plays so fast, they had 15 secs left on the game clock!
You’re so full of dung. I’ve said from the beginning he was a babe in the art of quarterbacking and that incremental improvement is a realistic expectation. I said when they drafted Mr. Hyde that the transition to a zone read was on the horizon and he’d be a perfect compliment to Kaepernick. I knew he was a beast at OU. Yes Chryst gets it and yes the 49ers are for real and so is their field General!
5 sacks. 2 from LBs, 2 from DBs, 1 from D-line.
From Kawakami:
Kaepernick, who did offseason work to tighten his delivery and feel more comfortable in the pocket, looked occasionally very good, occasionally very inaccurate, and often just like he did last season.
Yea, I don’t need a hack to tell me and what everyone else saw. Incremental improvement in all facets. Progressions, climbing the pocket, touch passes, you name it bitch….
Everyone saw an above average QB make finally do things that a rookie like Marcus Mariota and Jamies Winston do. Heck even Bridgewater climbed the pocket! And his O-line sucked!
You mad bro? Things you and your ilk continue to say he can’t do. Stfu….
It is what it is.
Exactly!
You and Kawakami go hand in hand. Your team gets the win by dominating their opponent. Kap looks solid, makes some key throws to keep the chains moving on 3rd downs and manages the game well. He had a shaky start in the 1st game of the season but really warmed up.
And what do u do… focus on everything he didn’t do. Celebrate the win man. You and Kawakami have something in common, you’re not fans.
I’m a fan, just not a fool. He’s not why they won. Hyde and the defense was. How are you supposed to get better when you can’t acknowledge the weak points on the team?
Why are we jumpig up and down because he did a few things a QB is supposed to do?
No, you are the fool who dissed Kaep, and he comes out and plays a great game and helps them win. Many posters had doubts, and you and oregon were the worst. Be prepared to eat some crow.
Anybody seen Oregonwhiner?
Seahawks last in the division!!!! Great win! Go Niners!
Good night folks and let’s enjoy the win!
Good night!
Kap gave a nice post-game presser. With the glasses on he looked like a young professor. I’ll be interested in seeing how he does after a loss. I know many think these things aren’t important, but I disagree. A leader needs to be able to handle these pressers because it continues to inspire confidence in those who view him as a leader (his teammates).
Pressers are the very least of my worries, and the teams as well I’d imagine, but I agree, like his HC, he needs to improve….
Kaep has improved immensely from his first presser. I am so proud of him. He is showing good leadership skills.
No trick plays to blow up. Just wear them down with long drives, and they also reduced drive killing penalties as the game went on. The fourth quarter reminded me of some of Walsh’s fourth quarters against the L. A. Rams.
They played NINER FOOTBALL.
I liked how Tomsula had that analytical frown on his face. Kinda reminded me of Bill.
Walsh valued team speed as one of the major attributes. This team has that and more – from Hyde exploding through the zone creases to McDonald chasing down the DB running back that blocked kick to the 15 defensive players flying around on each play. Wait until we incorporate Ellington and TS into the mix.
