Week #13 Preview: San Francisco 49ers (8-2-1) vs St.Louis Rams (4-6-1)…



                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                






                                                                           Well here we are the 49ers win yet another game convincingly with the young Kapernick at the helm. I still don’t think he deserved to take the job from Alex even with his great performance. But like I have said many of times I will back Harbaugh’s decision as he knows what is best for this team. So Colin will once again start the game under center for the 49ers. This si a good thing the kid is an amazing athlete player and quarterback. My only issue with Alex not starting is that he did nothing wrong. He didn’t play bad…all he did was get hurt. But alas I have made that point already. So I will talk about Sundays game, if the last 2 and a half quarters of football Kapernick played against them was any indication then the Rams defense is going to have its hands full with this kid. Who will take off if necessary and keep moving the pocket. The 49ers defense needs to just keep doing what they have been doing because it seems to be working…

Game #12 – San Francisco 49ers at St.Louis Rams

Offense: SF B+/STL B-: The 2 offenses couldn’t be any more opposite. You can say they both have great running backs. You can say that they both have great receiving corps? Well I don’t think so Moss, Manningham and Crabtree make up one of the top 10 receiving corps in the NFL. Now if you had Alex starting I would call it a draw at the QB position. But thanks to coach Harbaugh’s choice the 49ers have a slight advantage being that Kapernick is mobile and can run at any moment. Whereas Bradford is a more traditional pocket QB  in the mold of Brady and Manning just not as smart. But he will still be a key factor to stop for the defense….

Defense: SF A-/STL B: The 49ers defense has been on a real roll as of recently. With 2 pick six’s against the Saints and the smothering of the Bears on the Monday night before. So I expect the defense to perform well against the Rams. I personally think that Aldon Smith cannot be stopped leading the NFL with 16.5 sacks in only his second year on the field, and 1st in the starting rotation. The 48ers safeties will dominate the the Rams receivers. And this will result in multiple turnovers that hopefully Kapernick can turn into points. The Rams defense I think will struggle with the many options the 49ers have on offense. The Rams defense is good but when you add a mobile QB to the equation then you add a solid running game and tight ends that give you nightmares. And what you have is a winning combination….

Final Score: 49ers 28, Rams 17
