Impact: Gore salvaged his otherwise mediocre day with a brilliant 64-yard touchdown run. Take that away and he averaged a mere 2.3 yards-per carry (12 rushes for 27 yards). The 49ers have really begun to get away from that run-first offensive philosophy over the past two weeks, which has really limited the opportunities that Gore has had to produce big-time numbers. Since averaging 19 carries per game in Weeks 1 and 2, he has received an average of 13 carries over the past two weeks.
