Michael Crabtree played on 42-of-67 snaps (62.6 percent) in Sunday's win over the Rams. In his first game since a May Achilles' tendon tear, Crabtree played far ahead of Mario Manningham (16 snaps). He finished with two catches on four targets, lumbering up the sideline for 60 yards on one of them. Crabtree's snaps figure to gradually rise going forward, putting him on the WR3 radar for the Week 14 showdown with the Seahawks. The real payoff for owners should come in Week 16 when the Niners host the Falcons.
