News: PFT: Aldon Smith highly unlikely to be playing at start of 2014 season

[NewsBot]

Good news, Cowboys fans. Possibly good news, Bears fans. Perhaps good news, Cardinals fans. With 49ers linebacker Aldon Smith facing July 25 sentencing after pleading no contest to DUI and multiple felony weapons charges, Smith almost definitely will not be available when the 49ers commence the regular season at Dallas. Smith possibly won’t be around…http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=profootballtalk.nbcsports.com&blog=&post=2266316&subd=nbcprofootballtalk&ref=&feed=1

You play who you play, but I won't be mad if he misses the game.

It was all part of his plan.

Didn't want to get pancaked by Tyron. I don't blame you, Aldon.

Speaking of Game 1, which side of the field should we tell our secondary to focus on in defending Kaep? Hope Carter spies him bc he can match that speed but we do have some trouble with that read option (reason why the team switched to the 4-3 out of nowhere). Luckily, SF seemed to deviate away from that last season. I believe this team has a good chance to air it out against SF and a couple of breaks could lead to a solid opening week win @ HOME. Would be a great way to get things started and a great confidence boost to a young team.

Yeah. Looks like a case of Larry Allen-itis.

On record saying we start off 1-0.

So they will be missing Smith and Bowman anyone else? I just don't feel bad for teams after what we've been through the last 2 seasons and already this OTA. Maybe Vernon will still be held out but that's me dreaming

We have the Great Wall of Tyron Smith so I don't care if he plays or not.

 

[guag]

In other words, with our luck, there is a 0% chance that he misses the game.

I would type a "lol", but there is much truth within your sarcasm.

Oh, what the heck.

lol!

Ohh you homer! You're such a positive Nancy!

Of course I am rooting for the Cowboys to win. But, if they win that game, the pukes on NFLN and ESPN have to eat their words and that is pretty priceless IMO. Because I can pretty much guarantee you the pregame shows will give the Cowboys zero percent chance of winning.

 

[The Natural]

Good, this team will need every break they can get.

The Boys have a good chance to win this game especially with 2 of their better defenders out.

 

[dogunwo]

Aldon Smith being out won't help our pass rush or our secondary.

 

[DFWJC]

So Smith is out for them and Lee is out for us.
Both teams get a little break

 

[LatinMind]

This guy is on his 3rd arrest in like 18 months. Why hasnt this guy gotten the yr suspension that pacman got?

 

[Toruk_Makto]

Aldon Smith being out won't help our pass rush or our secondary.

Your point?

Oh right....never miss a chance to be needlessly negative.

 

[d_dub88]

WOW! Smith may be missing and Brent may be playing. King Roger speaketh.

No Bowmen; no A.Smith, no complaints. Light their *** up, Tony.
