Vernon Davis hinted at displeasure with his role following Sunday's tie. "Uh, I mean, I do what I'm told. That's pretty much it," Davis said. "My main focus is just making sure I'm a team guy and just accepting the simple fact that coaches are giving me a certain role to play and I have to accept it." Davis struck a diplomatic tone, but it's clear he's not satisfied with his limited targets over the 49ers' past four games. Davis has been playing nearly 100 percent of San Francisco's offensive snaps, but with just nine catches since Week 6, he's become a shaky TE1.

The lack of VD use (that's funny) is the main reason the 49ers aren't undefeated. They get him involved more and they win more. It's plain and simple.

Norv Harbaugh is the funniest thing I've read in awhile. MassahDaniel is a comic genius!

I guess the 49er's are satisfied with ties, barely eeking our games and losing, but hay their receivers are getting their targets and gaining their yards. When they are ready to WIN, give Vernon the targets, he's a proven comodity.

I've had it. I'm starting Greg Olsen over Vernon this week

Fabio49ers Wed 11/14/12 9:38 AM

I'll start a TE on a bye, and prob get more points..! This play calling on this team is a complete joke..!! Having Alex smith as your QB doesn't help either..!! Guys sucks!!!

InfamousStyles Wed 11/14/12 12:10 PM

yep, i am too. of course..this is the week harbaugh will remember vernon davis is on his team and get alex to throw him the ball.

joe71101 Thu 11/15/12 11:17 AM

i benched vernon last week in favor of greg olsen and boy did that pay off

Harbaugh is a moron. They made it to the NFC championship game last year despite him. He will be fired in a few years if he keeps this up. Davis is the best player they have on offense and he is not even getting targets. Horrible stupid Harbaugh.

Norv Harbaugh

YBtheMONSTER Wed 11/14/12 7:56 PM

i see what you did there

Samj4878 Mon 11/12/12 9:14 PM

Its ridiculous. Every single player on SF says Davis is the best athlete on that team and he doesnt even get targeted. Thats why they tied, this isn't fútbol its FOOTBALL

Riggs44R Tue 11/13/12 10:43 AM

That being said, teams are double teaming and scheming against Vernon only! They fear NO ONE else on that team, in the passing game!

Samj4878 Tue 11/13/12 8:26 PM

true....time to step up, continue to step up Crabtree. I just have both and it is tough to start both every week knowing that most likely only one will do well.

SlickPete88 Thu 11/15/12 8:20 AM

Throw Davis the ball anyway good players find away to make the catch. Witten is the best player on the Cowboys and he had 17 catches a couple weeks ago.

Riggs44R Thu 11/15/12 11:36 AM

Apparently Harbaugh doesn't have a 7 yard out in the playbook for Davis, only Crabtree. LoL

ParkersinBmore Mon 11/12/12 5:04 PM

One of the top TE's in the game, and you DON'T throw him the ball. Are you kidding me?
