Nick from Plainwell, MI

Good morning! Should we expect a mix of Garoppolo and Trey Lance at QB for the Niners? Or is Jimmy their guy for now?

Lance got a few snaps and threw a TD pass in Week 1. He didn't play in Week 2. So we'll just have to wait and see.

I know nostalgia can be a dangerous thing – but my oh my there was something really fun and familiar about Aaron hitting up Randall Cobb on a free play against the Lions. 10/10 wouldn't complain if we get to see that happen again.

Something tells me it won't be the last time we see that this season.

Seems that tight ends have been hard for recent Packers' defenses to stop. Do you expect a better performance against Kittle? If so, why?

I don't know what to expect, but I do see containing Kittle as a major key to this game. He's going to make some plays, we all know that, but he can't get the explosive ones that change a game. Last week for the Lions, Hockenson had eight catches but for just 66 yards, with one short TD. That would be a reasonably good effort against Kittle, I think.

Do you think other teams treat Big Bob Tonyan as an elite tight end, like they would treat Kelce or Kittle?

No, or at least not yet.

The secret weapon against Kittle? I'm calling it now: the much-maligned Kevin King.

That's a bold strategy, Cotton. I mean, Nate.

People complaining about ones not playing in the preseason have taken a lot of criticism, but year after year the starters seem out-of-sync for the first few games. They improve in time, but I am one of the complainers who would like to see the ones play a few series in the preseason. I think they need to see more variety of opposition and get the feeling of playing in a real game.

Was the 6-0 start in 2015 worth it with Jordy Nelson out for the season? I'll hang up and listen.

Who/what do NFL head coaches hear through their headsets? Do they hear chatter from offensive, defensive, and special teams? I would imagine there is a lot of "radio traffic" during a game and just wondered how they keep straight what they need to know. Thanks!

My understanding is the headsets have multiple communication channels, one for each group of coaches (offense, defense, special teams), and the head coach has a switch that allows him to get on any channel he needs to.

Why don't the Packers take more chances on defense? The risk is you give up the big plays when you blitz. But the reward is you create turnovers with sacks and pressure. Since the Packers have Rodgers, I'm not worried about the risk because Rodgers will typically get those points back if the defense gets burned on a big play. And the reward of creating turnovers likely means the Pack will win. Barry can't sit back and let offenses go on long drives that limit Packers possessions.

That's one school of thought, but those opportunities only come from stopping the run first. The Saints rushed for 140 yards in the first half. The Lions were keeping the pass rush at bay in the first half with effective runs followed by play-action. When the game dictated the Lions couldn't stick with the run, the whole look of the defense changed.

Michael from Burnsville, MN

Will the 49ers' offense play a different brand of ball than they normally do, due to the RB issues?

That would not be my expectation.
