6 players to watch on banged up 49ers offense vs. Cardinals

The 49ers offense needs a bounce-back game, but won’t have a couple key players.

It’s back on the Skule bus for the 49ers offense with Joe Staley out at least two games after surgery to repair a fractured, dislocated finger. This time with Skule, however, he’s a more well-known commodity than the first time he took over for Staley in Week 3. He allowed four sacks over his 452 snaps played, and was consistently good outside of a rough game against Carolina. He has a tall task against Chandler Jones and Terrell Suggs, although he acquitted himself well against them the last time these two teams matched up.
