SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) - Alex Smith is the San Francisco 49ers' starting quarterback yet again. Coach Mike Singletary made the announcement on his regular KNBR radio show Tuesday morning and the team later tweeted a reference to it. The move comes a day after Singletary said he was contemplating the switch from Troy Smith back to the 2005 No. 1 overall draft pick following a 34-16 loss at Green Bay on Sunday. The 49ers (4-8) face a must-win game at home Sunday against NFC West rival Seattle. Alex Smith di |

The firing comes weeks after team video coordinator Steve Scarnecchia was caught videotaping a San Francisco 49ers practice in London.

Scarnecchia was also dismissed due to his actions. |

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) -The Green Bay Packers expect to begin their final push for the playoffs without standout defensive end Cullen Jenkins. Jenkins strained his calf in the Packers' home victory over the San Francisco 49ers, and Packers coach Mike McCarthy says he is not likely to be ready for Sunday's game at Detroit. McCarthy said the injury isn't as bad as the team's medical staff originally feared, but he still may be out a couple of weeks. Jenkins has three sacks in the Packers' last two games. The |

| Green Bay, WI (MySportsbook) - Aaron Rodgers threw for 298 yards and three touchdowns, leading the Green Bay Packers to a 34-16 victory over the San Francisco 49ers at Lambeau Field.

Greg Jennings caught a 57-yard touchdown pass among six receptions for 122 yards and two scores, while Donald Driver had four catches for 73 yards and a score, including an |

Matthews was a limited participant in all three days of practice this week as the Packers (7-4) get ready for the San Francisco 49ers (4-7) on Sunday. That also was the case before each of the previous three games after Matthews felt discomfort in his left shin following Green Bay's win against the New York Jets on Oct. 31. ``I'd say it's more a nagging thing,'' Matthews said. |

| Santa Clara, CA (MySportsbook) - The San Francisco 49ers and kicker Jeff Reed have agreed on a one-year contract. Reed was released by the Steelers earlier this season after joining the team in 2002 and replaces Shane Andrus, who made only 2-of-4 field goal attempts in his two weeks with San Francisco. 49ers starting kicker Joe Nedney didn't play against the Cardinals last week because he didn't feel 100 percent in a pre-game warmup. Reed was franchised by the Steelers and signed a one-year tender for 2010 afte |
