Jonas

Jennings

As far as we know, they should play. But if both were to miss Sunday’s game, we’d downgrade the Bills offensive players.

A surprising move, but a big one for New York. They will likely move Jason Fabini to the right side and let Kareem McKenzie walk via free agency. On paper, it would improve an already-strong O-line, helping CMart and Chad Pennington out.

Three starting O-linemen on the 49ers are currently sidelined by serious injuries. It’s early, but it’s hard not to think about their disastrous ’04 season again.

They offered more money than the Ravens, Patriots, or Rams. Sims, 33, started 16 games at left tackle for Oakland in ’07 and had a ton of false starts, but it’s a good sign that respectable GMs (Ozzie Newsome and Scott Pioli) were interested. Sims is expected to battle RT Jonas Jennings to start.

Jennings missed nearly all of 2005 with a torn labrum. He worked with guard Larry Allen for the first time, what appears a formidable left side of the Niners offensive line.

Jennings sprained his ankle in the team’s Week 1 loss but claims he’ll suit up and play against St. Louis. He’s obviously a key part of the line.

He took a nasty helmet-to-helmet hit on Sunday, but will be back in the starting lineup this weekend for Buffalo.

He did not return. The Bills offense could be in huge trouble moving forward if they lose two starters off the offensive line.

Their return should help the entire Bills offensive unit.

It looks like Trey Teague, however, will miss another game. The Cards should be able to hold the Bills down.
