Chances Carolina goes into Candlestick Park and beats SF?

Both teams are riding winning streaks, with SF winning its last 5 and Carolina its last 4 games. However, both teams have not played great teams in those streaks (SF's opponents the last 5 games have a combined record of 13-28; Carolina's last 4 opponents a paltry 6-27).

Colin Kaepernick and Cam Newton will be facing off, but who will have the better game? Cam Newton has the better stats so far this season, but it seems Cam has struggled lately while Colin is starting to improve. It really comes down to Carolina's offensive playcalling, which we all know can make you scratch your head at times.

Of course, this game will be marketed for its defensive matchup. Carolina's D has been outstanding this season, while SF's D is improving, but we will see once SF starts playing better teams.

And, last but not least, the SF running game against the Carolina run D. SF is first in the league in rushing, but Carolina has the second best run D in the NFL. It will be interesting to see if Carolina can slow down the SF rushing attack.

Carolina is only one game behind the Saints in the division. If Carolina can pull a win out this weekend, it seems the NFC South might have a tight division race.

Bonus Question: Who has a better chance at winning their division?

Carolina has a chance, every team every week has a chance IMO.


The 49ers are coming off a bye and are getting healthy. However, I doubt Manningham plays too many snaps, as they will work him in. With Crabtree still out that means the 49ers are still down to only two receiving threats (Bolding and Davis).

Aldon Smith playing will help, if he is in football shape.


I think its a low scoring game with long time consuming drives. Cam Newton will turn the ball over a few times and the 49ers pull out the W.

that's what I'm most worried about. if that happens against San Fran we'll probably lose, unless our D can force Kaep to commit more turnovers.


I feel much better about this game than I ever expected to at the start of the year though.

As a Saints fan, I don't want to see Carolina give NO a tight race in the division, but part of me wants to see Draconian Sanctions have a meltdown.

also, I really think we'll be able to limit Gore pretty effectively. We've already shut down Lynch and Peterson this year. Hopefully Green Bay game Kaepernick doesn't show up

Until the 49ers get healthy at WR the plan to stop the 49ers pass game is simple and effective.

1. Double cover Boldin and Davis
2. Let all over receiving options have one on one coverage, they won't get any separation.
3. DO NOT blitz Kaep. His QBR is much better and it's easier for him to find running room.

I think Davis is going to be your playmaker against us this weekend. Tony Gonzalez just had himself a nice day as the only real passing threat for the Falcons and we still couldn't stop him

we have a bunch of new guys and a few rookies in the secondary who have played well, but this might be a little much for them to handle

Carolina's defense is too good to not have a chance against almost any team. Unfortunately.

Carolina is not good enough to go into Candlestick and beat the 49ers. And it would take a complete collapse by the Saints for Carolina to win that division.

The Saints will have a two game lead again after next week. Niners beat Carolina and the Saints destroy the cowgirls at home.

Punchers chance.

Coming off a bye Harbaugh has a disgusting win %. This will be the best oline Carolina has faced. Lunch and Peterson are great backs but shitty oline. Gore is a above avg back with the best line in football. He goes over 100 and Niners win going away.
27-13
