Wft vs niners prediction thread

This is gonna be a competitive close game. Their Oline and RB group is super talented.

The bills WR group did a number on the 49ers secondary. And their dline ain’t what it was last year.

Well coached team, but we need to stop the run. Cole Holcomb, Everett, Curl, KPL need to be ready to fill gaps. Our dline plays the run well but faces a good Oline.

This gonna be an ugly game...16-13 Skins

Their receivers are really dangerous, Deebo Samuel is like AG, RB/WR, Aiyuk the rookie has been spectacular, Bourne is above available and believe or not Reed has been playing well. Don’t underestimate this team.

Until there's not a reason to be hopeful, be hopeful.

We just knocked off an 11-0 team for crying out loud, we've won 3 in a row, there's legit reason to be hopeful

I think you are catching the 49's at the right time. Add in this would be a sweet win for Alex Smith . I see you guys 24-17

Its Jamf’s fault

Shitty news about Gibson...but I’d say really let him heal and rest him for as long as he needs. JD and Barber can handle the load. Also would like to see Javon Leake get some opportunity

What's the word on Bryce Love? Is he even close to playing?

I wonder if they will try to use someone like Gandy-Golden as a change up for the backfield if Gibson is out. McKissick has impressed me, but we need an alternate and with Gibson out... Barber isn't doing a lot, though he's been very serviceable, and he's non-existent in the passing game.

Oh, and can someone tell the LB's when blitzing a mobile QB to break down for the tackle instead of going hell for leather for the big hit? Big Ben of all people spinning out of a sack.:)

SF is so beat up, I don't see how they score more than 17 on us.

I'm riding the wave folks.

24-17 WFT

I don't think WFT is in the position to underestimate anyone. This will be a tough game, especially if they keep the trend of spotting them 10-14 points. However, this offense doesn't scare me. Mullens has as many TDs as he does INTs. He's been sacked 13 times in 6 starts. Their rushing and passing game are middle of the pack. Yes, they have athletes, but their receivers aren't above the caliber of the Steeler's receivers, or even Dallas' for that matter.

It's entirely possible WFT goes out and lays an egg, and SF runs through them...but I sense something different in this team the past few weeks. They are on a mission, and unless they make too many mistakes, turn the ball over, kill themselves with penalties, this shouldn't be that close when the clock expires.

It’s over with Bryce Love, he’s done. We need to move on after this year. I’m for drafting more RB in later rounds...if that dude from UNC Jonte Williams comes out, would love to scoop him 5th round.

----------------

9ers O line might be having some issues. Their fans think they arent good at pass pro. One of their posters made a video of the O line breakdowns in pass pro (top link)

This team is hard to figure what we are getting. Are we getting the 1-4 team over the past 5 games or the team that beat the Rams 2 weeks ago?

Backup QB Mullens seems to have some good games and bad games. 26-39, 316 yds, 3 td 2 ints vs a very solid Bills D. They were down 27-10 in the 2Q so how much of the 316 was gimme underneath stuff vs a soft D?

Seems they dont have an elite outside pass rush/edge play

+3 skins line ...

I really dont know what to expect, feels like a toss up
------------

Javon Leake - former terp, bigger frame RB w decent speed. loved watching him in College park. so many former terp running backs in the league (ty johnson, leake, mcfarland)

---------------

9ers LB Fred Warner ... playing at a very high level. He scares me

CB Jason Verrett is playing at a pro bowl to all pro level, I thought he was injured but apparently not

SF is so beat up, I don't see how they score more than 17 on us.

I'm riding the wave folks.

24-17 WFT

Yet they managed to beat the Rams, they have lots of depth. Javon Kinlaw on their D line has been dominating lately, Hyder the ex cowboy DL has been their best lineman this season. Shanarat hates us and will have his team fired up. We need to dominate on D and the O needs to show up.
