Last call for Niner game predictions

Packers 45

49ers     10

If it's 20-3 at the half, it won't end 37-17.  Boot. On. Throat.

 

 

GBP. 35. Whiners. 21.    

I think Aaron throws 6 TDs. Our D forces 3 SF turnovers. Packers win 52-20.

Slow start for Packers.  27-24 Packers.

If they can put up 20+ on the Seahawks D and 30+ on the Chiefs D then they should have no problem scoring 30+ on this D. As vulnerable as you may think our D is to a running QB, Kaep isn't scoring 30+ just by running. He's going to have to pass to win and based on how terrible he passed against AZ I don't see him winning the game with his arm.

Packers 38
49ers 23

Some teams play much better at home, and the 9ers may be one of them. They handled the queens pretty well opening weekend at home. They got creamed in the 2 away games after. They also have a pretty good running back who got lots of yards at home vs the queens. And, after getting embarrassed the last 2 weeks I'm sure they will be lathered up to at least be respectable.

 

Pack on the road with stadium noise and several players nicked up, Burnet, Adams etc. We did struggle on road some against a bad bear team. So it may not be as easy as it seemed last week.

 

So, I don't expect the blowout Packer win some are predicting. But, in a closer than it should be game , the Pack wins, 24-13 after pulling away in the 4th.

I worry about this one a little bit and feels like it could be a trap game.  The defense is going to be the key to this one the 49ers still have a half way decent line and Hyde is a pretty good back.  And we have to stop the QB runs which has given this defense fits.

 

The best scenerio for the Packers is a curb stomping on the way to the woodshed so they can rest some players but I see a close one 16-13 Packers.

The thing I noticed about the 49ers D is that they just aren't savvy or experienced enough at a lot of positions to keep up. They handled Minny because they have a young QB and minimal running game, but they faced two very savvy vet QBs the next two weeks and they got picked apart. It's true we are better at home than on the road, but that home crowd advantage often goes away once the home team gets down. They're facing the savviest of veteran QBs this week and I just can't see them keeping up. Their only saving grace might be the fact that their D is very active and energetic, so if they can punch GB in the mouth and keep it up then they can keep it close.

Niners have the 27th ranked pass defense and if the Packers can't get into the 30s it'll be a disappointment. The Packers are a good team and this is the type of game that good teams win. 

 

Packers 38

Niners  20

Biggest worry to me is the short week/travel compounded by the injury list. Offense may not be quite as sparkling.

 

Niners strike me as a team right now that won't generate much offense without a lot of rushing yards and turnovers from the opponent. Take away Hyde as they did Lynch and Charles and the Packers will have a solid road W.

Lack of points could also mean the Packers aren't doing a good job on Hyde and AR can't get on the field. Watched them handle Lynch and Charles the last two weeks and expect the pattern to continue. 

 

Quite a bit of real pessimism out there from some Packer fans that I don't quite get.

It's hard to travel to the West Coast on a short week.  It's even harder when your D got gassed in the 4th quarter the week before.

 

27-24 Packers win on last second FG.

A couple rookies/backups were in when GB "got gassed" last week.

Packers somewhere over 30 and SFO maybe to 20.

TRAP GAME!

 

 

Packers 38-13

I could see the defense having a bit of trouble early in this one, especially if Burnett doesn't play. Still, Niners just don't have enough talent on offense to stay with the Packers for 4 quarters.

 

Last game I predicted the D would score a TD, and though it didn't happen, Shields got damn close. I think they'll get one in this game.

 

42-24 Packers.

 

That was last week. 

 

This week is an NFC matchup. Time to finish the first quarter with our #1 goal - perfection.

Rodgers throws 2TDs, Eddie rushes for 2 more and our Defense(Ha Ha) scores another. Abbrederis scores his first regular season TD as a Packer on a slant pass from ARod. Wisconsin goes berserk! GB 38 SF 9.

Not a trap game. Just a tall order traveling to west coast on a short week. 

 

Need to lean on running game. This team is going to be tired. 

 

Scrappy 27-17 win but this is going to require a crap ton of grit. 

Niner secondary is a mess. A mess. Rodgers will cut them up like he did the Chiefs.

Rodgers does not finish the game because it's over early in the 4th.

Monty returns a kickoff for 6.

Randall gets a pick.

Guion causes a sack fumble.

Abby scores a TD

Janis scores a long TD.

Monty scores 6 in the red zone

Rodgers throws 4 TDs, Abby, Janis, Monty and Jones.

Lacy scores TD on run

Harris scores TD on run.

Mason is 7 for 7 on XPTs

Masthay doesn't kick once.

 

Pack 49 - SF 13

This is the closest a Wisconsin team is going to get to a Rose Bowl for a while.  So they better come out on fire.  Pack wins 24-20 behind Ron Dayne's 230 yards rushing and Darrell Bevell's last-second touchdown scramble.  Abby gets knocked out of the game and wakes to discover he still has eligibility left at Wisconsin and goes back to help them go 8-5, winning a bowl game over Navy.

In my smokey visions a quarterback stands in the pocket and calmly throws for 4 TDs. There's heavy fog in the bay so I can't tell which team.

 

Must have been this Kap guy!
