Gore Not Worried About Hand, Fumbling

Sacramento Bee - Frank Gore missed a month with a broken right hand, but the 49ers running back insists he won't be thinking about the injury Monday night.

Gore said he has not yet decided whether he will play with the padded glove he has at times worn in practice this week. One of the worries is that it will affect his grip on the ball, a problem Gore has had in each of the past two seasons.

San Francisco coach Mike Nolan said Thursday he expected the hand injury might prompt the Cardinals to put a little more emphasis on stripping the ball Monday night.

"They'll wrap him up, and the other guys will come in and probably tug away at the ball," he said. "That's what backs have to expect -- this week's not different than any other week." [READ]
