Horn will probably be comparable in production to Glenn or Johnson.
Johnson may work without Steve Smith. This could be good or bad, but most likely means Carolina will run the ball more.
I think Glenn will go off. He has been excellent in preseason.
I don't think much of Alex Smith and the SF offense. If you are going to make a change, swap Horn for Bryant. NO should score some against Cleveland. Hope that Reggie Bush falls in a manhole. This week will tell you how Brees is doing.

I would keep Johnson and Glenn in the lineup. Johnson will probably have a better day if Steve Smith plays (I know, it sounds strange, but Smith will draw most of the attention from the defense, most likely leaving Keyshawn in single coverage with the No. 2 corner), and Keyshawn is always a threat to get red-zone touchdowns because of his size.
Terry Glenn looked AMAZING in the preseason, and I would expect him to be the deep threat for the Dallas offense. With T.O. missing so much of the preseason, Bledsoe will be far more comfortable throwing to Glenn, who will be even more open than ever with T.O. drawing attention from the defense.
Antonio Bryant is talented, but he has never been anything exceptional and he has one of the worst starting QB's in the NFL throwing him the ball. He's nothing more than a bye-week replacement at this point until he proves otherwise. He sits. Start Joe Horn in his place. Horn is really the only legitimate receiving threat for New Orleans, unless Reggie Bush splits out wide a lot. Look for Horn to get at least 7 catches, including a TD. He's a solid start.

The matchups are key here, and and I can see Keyshawn or Glenn having a tougher time against the D's they face (atl & jax) respectively than Joe will against Cleveland. I'd say it might be a good idea to sit Glenn and play Horn, since Keyshawn will get a lot of looks with Smith's hammy in Carolina.

Sit Horn. Leigh Bodden will be playing against Horn and is best known for shutting down big name recievers (SEE CHAD JOHNSON) I'd play Glenn (BIG game with TO still hurt), Bryant (Only reciever on the 49ers worth anything), & Johnson (should look into getting a better WR)

I think the most replaceable is Keyshawn, but he gets bonus points because Steve Smith is out. Joe Horn gets to play against Cleveland which could add up to big points. I would play Horn if it were my team. At least you have so many good WRs-Im Jealous. Good luck.

it amazes me that no one is concidering benching bryant. His quaterback is far less competent than bledsoe or delhomme, the 49ers have no running game to speak of, and hes facing a tougher defense than Joe Horn. Plus lets be honest who else is going to be recieving any passes in NO??? They might have reggie bush come out of the backfield a few times but besides that Joe Horn should be recieving a plether of reception opportunities. Lets also not forget despite the hype on draft day Bryant has historically failed to live up to his potential. Id bench the 49er and go with Joe!

Antonio Bryant is one of the 10 most overrated players in the NFL. Especially when you consider he's on the Niners, he should not even be on your roster. Drop him and start Joe Horn.

I'd definitely replace bryant with Horn just because Horn has a much better QB throwing to him, and should have a pretty good game sunday
