Our offense versus 9ers D (Looking at strength of schedule)
We've only been held under 25 four times all season (only 22 times in the past 70 games!), and we still won two of those. They've only scored OVER 25 four times all season, and two of those were against St. Louis. So us at our worst is still better than them at their best.
Furthermore, the best quarterbacks they faced all season were Eli (311 yard) and Stafford (293). That's it. No Brady, no Rodgers, of course no Payton Manning, and no Brees, except in preseason where they got lit up. From there, we go to second tier qbs like Romo (345), a past his prime Vick (416) and a hobbled Big Ben (330). They can't stop the pass. We, on the other hand, have torched some pretty good defenses. Aside from us, no one else put 30 on Chicago before they stopped caring when Culter went down. Besides us, only 3 other teams hung 30 on Detroit. No one but us hung 30 on Houston. Only Pittsburgh (not even us) put 30 on Tennessee. So even if they hold us to 25 points, which I don't think they will, Alex Smith can't go get 26, unless he's playing the Rams. |
