Tate broke his ankle in the first pre-season game last year had been operated on and went off on the list. He missed several practices in training camp this year was concerned with a thigh injury and Kubiak, that Tate was not fit enough for the regular season.
But Tate, behind in the competition for the backup role Foster, Kubiak said he would be prepared for Saturday's game and showed enough to practice Thursday to convince his coach.
Tate had a 4-yard touchdown and gained 43 yards on another run in the second quarter.
DENVER (AP) Brady Quinn surpassed Tim Tebow, at least for one night.
Kyle Orton, who made the scene of Denver quarterback in a matter of who led the Broncos to be his backup two touchdown drives in the 24-10 victory over the Buffalo Bills on Saturday night.
Quinn had a solid performance for the most part, throws a touchdown pass, an interception, but he was sacked Tebow and litigation and has a big fight in the cleaning.
The game has been through several injuries, including a fear of running bills Johnny White, who was attached to a table body and off the field after his head was clouded in the grass in a single entry by linebacker Mario Haggan in the third quarter.
Gailey said receiver Donald Jones was not seriously injured.
Jones broke a cycle of rookie safety Rahim Moore, a struggle in the second quarter and left the player's second year on the ground for several minutes before on the feet.
Jones had defeated Cassius Vaughn put aside the bills, but Ryan Fitzpatrick shot past Jones and Moore sliced, not to the recipient as successful as the poor under the chin. Jones head bounced on the ground, and Moore was reported for a personal foul.
Bills running back Fred Jackson and wide receiver Stevie Johnson Moore produced two after work.
I saw (Jones), half the time it was good, said Fitzpatrick. Nobody wants to hurt anybody, but if you look at something that was perhaps the night was the positive reaction of our people to them. Look, we are a strong unit and saw. For someone who will come after us, take a picture of the man who is not well with us.
Moore said he thought he had done nothing wrong, but apologized to the film he shows did.
Broncos safety David Bruton suffered a head injury in the fourth quarter.
SEATTLE (AP) Donovan McNabb just needs a good trip to the progress of his pre-season first begins to see with Minnesota. There was no progress to Tarvaris Jackson. Only questions about the rebuilding Seattle offense.
Reserve cornerback Marcus Sherel returned 64 yards deflected Jackson touchdown pass in the first quarter, and Ryan Longwell still help to two field goals, the Seahawks beat the Vikings 20-7 on Saturday night.
Tristan Davis provided the capper with a touchdown from 35 yards with 2:09 left the Vikings first touchdown of the preseason offensive.
For me, in a new offense and will be around new people, feel it kind of something that tries to ease in every practice should go with each other, these people comfortable with me and in game situations, and earn points on the map said McNabb.
McNabb had a 13-play drive that started at 1 and ends the first of two field goals Longwell. Christian Ponder played rookie quarterback, nearly two quarters of its capacity to be taken especially against most of the defense of Seattle and leader of the Vikings points.
And the Minnesota defense has the miserable things for Jackson during his half of the Seahawks in the middle.
McNabb looked as soon have it long in the field. It has all the three pieces in the first 16 minutes, sacked by Raheem Brock always in the second bracket and connect with Adrian Peterson in a brief conclusion.
McNabb finally saw the field again after an early second quarter. McNabb hit his next three passes, including throws of 17 yards to rookie winger Kyle Rudolph and a swing pass 23 yards to Jim Kleinsasser. Later in the drive, McNabb is 21 meters to receiver Michael Jenkins, the new Vikings in the 25th Over time, the Vikings were the first of two goals in the area pay Longwell.
After five seasons in Minnesota in the last two as a backup to Brett Favre, Jackson signed a two-year contract to be the starter in Seattle, partly because of their familiarity with new offensive coordinator Darrell Bevel Seattle. Jackson has managed to Sidney Rice, Minnesota move to the West Coast.
But the old Vikings were not able to prove against his former club. Be bothered Jackson completed 11 of 21 for 75 yards and an interception in the first half for an offensive line that could provide adequate protection to. Rice caught only two passes for 11 yards. And the first team offense managed just 139 total yards despite running 39 plays in Seattle in the first half.
Jackson ran for safety most of the first half, struggling after the change and youth in the Seattle offensive line. It was unsettling from the beginning when Jackson was forced to avoid, Jared Allen on the opening drive of Seattle is released.
And when Seattle was threatened at the start of the second quarter score was the offensive line is not the same holes. The Seahawks had been first and goal at the 2 and Justin Forseti four arrested three times since the one against the Vikings defensive line booking.
The first team to not put points on the map last week and this week. We have a lot of work to do, Jackson said.
While Jackson struggled, Charlie Whitehurst entered the third quarter and was impressive for the second consecutive week. Whitehurst was almost perfect, and gained his first seven passes 11 and 10, the last three-yard touchdown to Anthony McCoy based on the first play of the fourth quarter. There were cries of Charlie! Charlie! Seahawks fans, but Seattle coach Pete Carroll made it clear that Jackson is the starter in a week in San Francisco.
Whitehurst was 14 of 19 for 97 yards.
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) The only new thing in return of Alex Smith at Candlestick Park the coach on the bench. Considering the offensive performance last week, that was a big improvement.
Smith threw for 126 yards and one interception in his home debut, Coach Jim Harbaugh, showers with a mixture of boos and applause at the 49ers before the season the Raiders 17-3 victory on the cross-bay rival Oakland on Saturday night.
The game was also marked by violence.
It was at least one fight in the lower bowl of the stadium during the game, which rarely in any sporting event, let alone between the rival teams. But then the word began to spread rapidly to other incident.
Two men were shot in the parking lot, police said. The victims were a 20-year-old man is expected to survive, and that 24 years in the hospital with the approval of such lethal injuries.
The 49ers have made a declaration that they were aware of an incident and police were investigated. In the field, he consoled himself by taking small steps last week.
While the running game has accumulated large parts of the yards, the passing game is not always clear.
Smith was 8 to 13, and with nothing in the end zone. He had a pass intercepted by defensive end Matt Shaughnessy in the second quarter and led the 49ers to one field goal in the middle of the game.
No. 1 pick in 2005 left at least healthy. Oakland quart Jason Campbell does not return after taking a few punches in a fighting game in the second quarter. It was the sign of a concussion to be expected.
Bay Area fans might with more questions than answers to two liters of this exit.
Although San Francisco offense a U-turn after losing 24-3 was held last week in the first game in New Orleans, mimics the performance of Smith some of his last six seasons: the three anchor units of time, showed signs of progress and made a big mistake.
With the second round pick Colin K盲pernick wait on the bench, the pressure on Smith to carry out eventually. K盲pernick threw for 52 yards on six of eight passes, and Smith received the travels of a solid racing game by Kendall Hunter, who carries with 105 yards and a touchdown on nine out ready.
The Niners opened with a 16-play, 79 yard drive that got the two yards from the goal line to a halt. The field goal attempt that followed was frustrated by the holder Andy Lee could not corral the snap, throwing the ball away and injuries of the hip on the ground fought by the defenders.
The second album, Smith left a pass to tight end Vernon Davis squeeze the band tried to cover Shaughnessy fell into an interception and was packaged as a gift. Smith left the field with a cry of light, the applause of the fans Raiders.
Smith, the alleged start of the regular season, said he had never seen Shaughnessy drop in coverage. Both Smith and Harbaugh think it was an error in the detection coverage and a reminder of the mistakes of the past.
The best highlight of the evening came when receiver Braylon Edwards, the 49ers once again a big catch with one hand on the bench for 32 yards in the last panel of the first team offense. San Francisco has for a field goal from 23 yards from David Akers, who also blocked a punt chosen in place of Lee.
Not that the news was better on the bench more.
The Raiders have several key players due to injuries, especially receiver Jacoby Ford and Louis Murphy and running back Darren McFadden. Now, I could still be included in the list.
Campbell was late in the second quarter when he threw himself to his left, was shot by Justin Smith injured a knee and appeared on the helmet of linebacker Ahmad Brooks have. Campbell went on the floor, while briefly controlled by the coaches.
He sat on the bench after she replaced by Trent Edwards, finishing with 74 yards passing. Sebastian Janikowski made field goal scored from 46 yards in the fourth quarter only Oakland.
Harrell said the police took a man in a Raiders jersey in a party bus before he leaves the stage and called him a suspect.
The suspect and two victims had attended the game, Harrell told reporters.
The 49ers released a statement, the shooting and the investigation, but gave no details.
Violence during the game, told the Oakland Tribune, attacked the 26 years in San Rafael man and knocked unconscious in a room of men.
The police said he was in the hospital and a suspect was arrested. There was no immediate indication that is connected to the shooting after the game.
