Were people too quick to judge the 49ers because of their two performances prior to last night’s game? Well that all depends on how much respect a team like the Rams should get. After getting clobbered by the Cowboys last week, St. Louis once again had a rough to start the game and never really got going on offense. The 49ers also got off to a bit of a slow start but once they found their run game, it was pretty much smooth sailing to a 35-11 win on the road. Sure, Colin Kaepernick didn’t have the greatest of games but yesterday it was all about the run game for San Francisco last night. Frank Gore led the way (20 car, 153 yds, 1 TD) but it was a good team effort as the Niners racked up nearly 220 yards on the ground. What happened to this great running defense that the Rams were supposed to have? After the first couple of weeks it was said to be among the best in the league but now, back to back games in which the opponent rushed al over the field. And it’s not just problems on defense to St. Louis, the offense has looked stale for the second straight week. Sam Bradford never seems to have time in the pocket and there seems to be some communication issues between himself and the receivers. Now the Rams fall into a deadly 1-3 hole while the 49ers are right back in the NFC mix at 2-2. Last night’s win for the Niners could very well have been a turn around game for their season, we’ll have to wait and see.

Now let’s take a quick look at the games on Sunday because if the past three weeks have told us anything is that it’s probably going to be another exciting Sunday. Games i’m most looking forward too: Bengals at Browns, Bears at Lions (best early game), Seahawks and Texans, Eagles at Broncos, Cowboys at Chargers. I know, I know. The Patriots in Atlanta to take on the Falcons should be excellent but let’s be honest, unless you’re a huge fan of either of those teams, you’re missing a good part of that game to watch the Breaking Bad finale. I can’t blame the majority of the country, i’ll be doing the same. I’m really curious to see which teams that are either 1-2 or 0-3 will be fighting desperately to keep their season hopes alive. 0-4 spells absolute doom while 1-3 gives your team the slightest of playoff chances, especially if you’re in one of the weaker divisions. Games i’m least looking forward to: Cardinals at Bucs, Steelers at Vikings, Redskins at Raiders. Am I the only one who thinks there is real upset potential in the Eagles-Broncos game? Eagles fighting for their lives, Broncos getting a little too comfortable. I mean, Peyton Manning has to throw an interception eventually. If it comes down to a shootout, any team can win. The Broncos are a machine and as great as they are, a line of -11 against an offense like the Eagles seems VERY high. I don’t give the Eagles that great of a chance to win the game but to keep it close? Sure, i’ll bet on that.
