"You would like to say 'well, let's get back to football, it's a game tonight,'" John Madden told the KCBS Radio morning crew. "It's hard to say that, even for me. It's hard to say, 'okay, let's just put all that behind us.' (This issue) is one of the things you can't just put behind you."
The San Francisco 49ers announced they have suspended radio broadcaster Ted Robinson for comments he made on domestic violence.

Solomon Wilcots may have had one season in the black and yellow, but he's an expert on all things football and he took the time to weigh in on this Thursday's match-up between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens.

The Oakland Raiders gave up 402 yards in their opener against the New York Jets on the road, even though they gave up just 19 points. Some of that was due to the Jets QB struggling to hold on to the ball, of course, but the Silver & Black defense will need to be a lot tougher at home in Week Two for the Raiders to emerge victorious against an efficient Houston Texans offense.
The San Francisco 49ers won their first game of the 2014 season, but they didn't generate enough offense consistently on their own. Gifted four turnovers by the Dallas Cowboys, the 49ers didn't score at all in the second half of the game.

Should the 49ers continue to play defensive tackle Ray McDonald following his arrest for alleged domestic violence? John Madden doesn't think so.
The first NFL regular season game played at Levi Stadium has the San Francisco 49ers hosting the Chicago Bears. On paper, Chicago is very similar to San Francisco's week 1 opponent the Dallas Cowboys. The Bears have an offense that can score points at will, an inconsistent passer and a less than spectacular defense.
Week Two looks tougher for the Oakland Raiders now that the Houston Texans posted their first win in almost a year. Can the Raiders win their home opener? Sure, they can, if both the offense and the defense play better than they did in Week One against the New York Jets on the road.
San Francisco 49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh would not address any more questions on Ray McDonald's domestic violence arrest and did not have a comment on the video of Baltimore running back Ray Rice punching his then-fiancee, which prompted the Ravens to release Rice from the team Monday.
Move over Tebowing and Kaepernicking. During Sunday's NFL game between the San Francisco 49ers and the Dallas Cowboys and brand new verb began to emerge – "to Romo."

All the problems that seemed to be facing the 49ers were worked out on the field. The offense looked fine, the defense stepped up and the result was a road win, that was far from a lock. f the 49ers can continue to improve, they will be back in the thick of things at the end of the season.
Colin Kaepernick looked ready to lead the San Francisco 49ers to another NFC championship game. Tony Romo looked rusty for the Dallas Cowboys.
The New York Jets' defense clamped down on Oakland rookie quarterback Derek Carr in a 19-14 victory Sunday.
