DENVER -- Christian Ponder ran for a score and threw for another in the fourth
quarter and San Francisco pulled away to beat the Denver Broncos 31-24 in an
exhibition Saturday night.
C. J. Beathard Jersey .Ponder was signed
earlier in the week to bolster the teams depth at quarterback.Blaine Gabbert,
trying to solidify his hold on the starting quarterback job in Colin Kaepernicks
absence, led a scoring drive and finished 6 of 9 for 69 yards in roughly a
quarter and a half of play.Kaepernick, who missed the first exhibition because
of a sore right shoulder, resumed throwing in practice Thursday and is expected
to begin fully participating in workouts next week in hopes of playing Friday
against Green Bay.Ponder, who was out of football last season, was added by the
49ers (1-1) after backup quarterback Thad Lewis suffered a season-ending knee
injury in their exhibition opener against Houston last week. Ponder scored on a
22-yard bootleg and then completed a 30-yard touchdown pass to Dres Anderson.The
Broncos (1-1), also in search of a quarterback after the retirement of Peyton
Manning and free agency departure of Brock Osweiler, did not get a decisive
performance from their contenders.Trevor Siemian led a nifty game-opening
touchdown drive that C.J. Anderson finished with a 19-yard run, but he also was
picked off by Eric Reid, who returned the interception 42 yards for the score.
Reid easily eluded Siemians attempt to tackle him near the goal line. Siemian
was 10 of 14 for 75 yards.Mark Sanchez, who started the Broncos exhibition
opener last week, relieved Siemian and led a drive ending in a field goal but
struggled overall, with three sacks and fumbling twice. He completed 10 of 17
for 120 yards and just missed having one of his throws intercepted by cornerback
Chris Davis.Paxton Lynch, the Broncos first-round draft pick, was the most
productive among the three though he has primarily gotten third-team reps in
training camp.He threw an 8-yard touchdown pass to John Phillips late in the
third quarter and another covering 4 yards to Durron Neal in the waning minutes.
His final pass was intercepted in the last moments by cornerback Kenneth
Acker.QUOTABLEI squandered a great opportunity to separate myself and put the
team in a bad situation. No excuse for that. Poor, poor quarterbacking play. --
Sanchez on his fumbles on consecutive second-quarter possessions.I think we
improved in the offense as a whole. We got the ball in the end zone. We could
always start faster, but just getting into the flow of the offense kind of
playing more this week we see how things kind of work. -- Gabbert on his play
and the performance of the offense as a whole.MAKING PROGRESSKaepernick went
through his pregame passing routine in anticipation of participating fully in
practices next week ahead of Fridays exhibition against Green Bay. The biggest
thing is seeing how he responds in terms of if there are any residual effects
(from his pregame throwing session) and see how he feels in the morning and see
how hes progressing, coach Chip Kelly said.ROOKIE WATCH49ers: WR Bryce Treggs,
an undrafted free agent out of Cal, caught a 25-yard pass from fellow rookie
Jeff Driskel to help set up a second-quarter field goal. Treggs later left the
game with a knee injury. WR Devon Cajuste, an undrafted free agent from
Stanford, caught a 40-yard pass from Driskel in the third quarter.Broncos: FB
Andy Janovich, a sixth-round pick out of Nebraska, helped clear the way on
Andersons first-quarter touchdown run by picking off a 49ers defender with his
lead block on the play.POSITION BATTLES49ers: RB Mike Davis, in the mix for the
right to back up starter Carlos Hyde, ran five times for 26 yards but also had
two fumbles. ... RB DuJuan Harris, also competing for a backup spot, appeared
headed for the end zone late in the third quarter, but fumbled at the 1 and the
ball was recovered in the end zone by the Broncos for a touchback.Broncos:
Rookie RB Devontae Booker, competing with Ronnie Hillman to be the primary
backup to starter C.J. Anderson, ran nine times for 36 yards and also provided
solid pass protection when asked to stay in and block on passing plays. Zaire
Anderson, looking to add depth at inside linebacker and contribute on special
teams, forced two fumbles.INJURY UPDATE49ers: LB Nick Bellore was sidelined by a
knee injury in the third quarter. ... DT Tony Jerod-Eddie was sidelined in the
first half with a chest injury. ... LB Eli Harold left late in the second
quarter after hitting the ground hard at the bottom of a pileup. No announcement
was made on the nature of his injury. ... WR Bruce Ellington did not play
because of an ankle injury. ... DT DeForest Buckner, the first of the 49ers two
first-round picks, was held out with a lower-body injury.Broncos: T Darrion
Weems left the game early in the second quarter with a concussion. ... LB Corey
Nelson left midway through the second quarter with a wrist injury. ... DE Vance
Walker, who tore his right ACL during a training camp practice earlier in the
week, has been placed on season-ending injured reserve. ... OLB DeMarcus Ware,
continuing his recovery from back problems, missed a second exhibition game, but
could begin practicing with the team as soon as next week.---Online:AP NFL

.875,000, avoiding arbitration. Clippards deal Monday means all eight Nationals
players who filed for arbitration wound up settling before a hearing.Colin
Montgomerie believes Danny Willetts Masters victory wont be his last major
title, while he feels Jordan Spieth could be haunted by his back-nine collapse.
You saw Willett smiling and accepting what was going on out there and he was the
only one that was accepting what was going on really.He was the worlds No 1
amateur, won European Tour events and then came third in the WGC events at
Doral, so he has been building up to something very special. This is very
special indeed. Willett carded a bogey-free 67 on Sunday To play a bogey-free
round on Sunday with five birdies and no bogeys is exceptional golf. I really do
feel like theres more to come from Danny Willett and we certainly havent heard
the last of him, thats for sure.I played a few rounds with Danny towards the end
of my European Tour career and there was always huge ability and talent there.
He did always believe he was going to succeed.I believe what was very important
on Sunday though was that he was playing with Lee Westwood and Billy Foster. He
felt comfortable in that group with them and playing with them, so it was like a
European Tour event in a way. He wasnt playing with a no-name American that he
might have felt uncomfortable with. I think this will be very difficult for
Spieth to accept and to take forward. Colin Montgomerie It wasnt just the tee
shot at 16 that helped him secure victory, but it was the putt to follow that
was special..
Solomon Thomas Youth Jersey. A lot of people
missed that, but he banged it in there straight.Then at 17 he was out of
position after the second shot, but what a chip shot that followed. Viewers
watching on Sky Sports would have had no idea how difficult that was, so thats
why Billy gave him the thumbs up and all credit to him.Thats the sort of day
they were having together, they were egging each other on which was super for
both of them. Hes going to go to the US Open now full of confidence. Spieth
presented Willett the Green Jacket Its very easy to say when people win their
first major that theyre going to win more and more, but I really do think he is
because of his attitude as well.SPIETH WOESYou can talk about Rorys back nine
here, and then how the very next major he went and won at Congressional for the
US Open, but I think this will be very difficult for Spieth to accept and to
take forward.To fly in the coach showed signs of panic and you could see all
week there was edginess about him.He was shouting at the ball and talking to the
ball, but the problem was that everything was going right. The bogey on 10 was
because he was right, the bogey on 11 was because he was right and then the
quadruple bogey at 12 he was right again.Ive had it a few times where you have
either thrown it away or people have beaten you and it is difficult to accept.
Will it affect him going forward? It will be interesting to see. Also See:
