San Francisco 49ers vs St Louis Rams Betting Preview

by Alexander Banks on Sunday, September 16th, 2007

San Francisco 49ers vs St. Louis Rams Betting PreviewThe San Francisco 49ers vs St Louis Rams NFL week 2 match-up kicks off at 1:00 PM EST.  Both the San Francisco and St Louis have showed their weaknesses in their openers and will look to work out the kinks in game 2. This game doesn't look to be an easy one for the 49ers as they have lost 7 of the past 8 in St Louis. The oddsmakers at BetUS.com have made the San Francisco 49ers +3 point road underdogs.

 

The 49ers offense was quiet most of the night against the Arizona cardinals before assembling a late rally to win the game 20-17. The St. Louis Rams were outplaying the Carolina Panthers for 3 quarters before falling apart late to lose 13-27. These teams play each other close in this divisional rivalry, reduced juice sportsbook BetOnline.com have the St Louis Rams as 3 point home favorites with -105 reduced juice.

 

The key in this game for both teams will be to stop the run. Last year Rams running back Steven Jackson gashed the 49ers for 316 total yards in their two meetings. This time around might be more difficult for Jackson because All-Pro offensive tackle Orlando Pace was lost for the year with a shoulder injury in the season opener. Jackson was only able to muster 58 yards last week and the 49ers front 7 looks better than in years past. Will Jackson be the same back without Pace blowing holes open for him?

 

If the San Francisco defensive backs can lock down Rams wide receivers Torry Holt and Issac Bruce they could load up against the run and play a ball control style game that suits them. One big factor will be how star San Francisco running back Frank Gore plays after his mothers death earlier in the week.
