WitP: Pisa, Mouton, Ulbrich, RGM, McBriar

Pisa Tinoisamoa had 3 tackles and forced a fumble in his first game back since suffering a knee injury in Chicago's season opener. However, he reinjured the knee in the 4th quarter of the Bears' loss to the Falcons and had to be carted off.

Ryan Mouton had 7 tackles, but the Titans got blown out by the Patriots 59-0.

Matt Barrows of the Sacramento Bee is a little vague, but appears to have some bad news regarding Jeff Ulbrich's concussion.

Safety Michael Lewis had three concussions in a short amount of time but it's Jeff Ulbrich's concussion that seems the most serious, or rather, seems the most likely to be a career ender. That would be a real shame. If I had to pick the 49ers who most love the game of football - from practices to games and everything in between - the two names that would spring to mind would be Frank Gore and Jeff Ulbrich.
Ryan Grice-Mullen had a so-so game in the BC Lions' victory over Winnipeg, with 2 rushes for -2 yards and a fumble, 1 catch for 2 yards, 5 punt returns for 17 yards and 3 kick returns for 56 yards.

And Mat McBriar is disappointed in his punting so far this season, even though he's averaging 46.5 yards a punt.
By most accounts punter Mat McBriar is off to a solid start in 2009.

He is averaging 46.5 yards per punt. He has a 41.2-yard net average. He has put 13 of his 23 punts inside the opponent's 20.

By most accounts, sure, but not McBriar's.

"I've been a little erratic, a little inconsistent," McBriar said. "That's how I feel always, but especially the last game I had two kicks that were pretty poor and also the last quarter in Denver I had two bad picks. I feel like I put the team in a bad situation there, so I've got things to work on."
