Some things to Ponder: Notes from 49ers’ 31-24 win in Denver

SANTA CLARA -- '49ers beat Super Bowl champs!' is not the headline from Saturday's game in Denver. Yes, they won 31-24, but as was the case last week it took the first-team offense a couple of drives to get rolling and they were again done in by fumbles -- two by Mike Davis and one by his chief competition for the No. 3 running back spot, DuJuan Harris.

Still, the first-team offense eventually got on track with Blaine Gabbert hooking up with the guy who's become a favorite target, tight end Vance McDonald, three times for 38 yards.
