49ers vs. Rams: Week 6 NFL Picks & Game Predictions
The Rams are coming off a difficult division reduction against the Seattle Seahawks past Thursday while the 49ers are coming off a week in. The 49ers looked absolutely dominant against the Cleveland Browns. They fully controlled the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball. Baker Mayfield had time to create before a defensive lineman, many often spectacular rookie Nick Bosa plagued him even 1 read.
On the opposite side of the globe, the 49ers offensive line controlled the line of scrimmage opening holes to their three running backs to scamper through, also gave plenty of time for Jimmy Garoppolo to show his accuracy off and locate wide receivers. Kyle Shanahan offensive strategies have been lauded and now he has the weapons to perform his revolutionary ideas. Shanahan, like counterpart Sean McVay, devises plays which get his players open, however they really also do it in very different manners.
McVay uses chiefly the 11 scheme. Shanahan utilizes the use of a fullback. Monday night, unfortunately for the Niners which fullback, All Guru Kyle Juszcyk was hurt. Another significant injury was of banning right tackle Mike McGlinchey. McGlinchey has been critical for its line, and can be out for six to eight months. Coupled with their earlier reduction of OT Joe Staley, the 49ers will start tackles on each side of the line.
The Rams are beginning to receive their running game back and Todd Gurley acquired a little more work than this year as it seems that coach Sean McVay is easing him back to the game plan. Gurley was not enough though, as the Seahawks were able to pull the near win against the Rams off. Two of the coaching minds square away. McVay and Shanahan draw up the two most remarkable, forward-thinking schemes, though they do it in ways that are different.
Kyle Shanahan prefers the traditional, using a foundation I formation called 21 (2 RB 1 TE two WR). McVay likes to spread it. McVay tried to change it up every week. McVay used 11 on only 58% of snaps & 12(1 RB 2 TE 2 WR) on 36 percent of snaps. But he failed to disguise his intentions, which can be just one of his strengths in the 11 formation. The Rams attempted to pass on all 38 slides in 11 formation. He then called 71% run 24 slips in 12, making it more easy for the cerebral minds of Pete Carroll and MLB Bobby Wagner to diagnose. He called seven pass plays out of 12 and all were perform action. McVay needs to go back to his offensive playcalls that is deceptive for the Rams to own success.
They have two losses in a row, although the Rams have done an excellent job fighting a Super Bowl hangover so far. They should be helped by the week with additional preparation time though and that I hope to see a Rams team that is totally concentrated. The exercise days will allow them time. The Rams offensive line was a drawback from their showing, a weakness this year last year. On the bright side, Goff is pleased to have receiver Cooper Kupp back at the lineup; expect Kupp to be a enormous part of the game program this week.
Two important aspects in this game are the extra rest for the Rams, and the offensive line harms for the 49ers. The Rams are coming 10 days rest while the Niners only have from. Losing right address Mike McGlinchey will probably be a downgrade for the Niners. Because Juszcyk is your best blocking fullback in the 21, this fullback Kyle Juszcyks reduction is a decrease. The 49ers are hooked upon their running game to control tempo and time of possession. There will be more pressure on 49ers QB Jimmy Garoppolo, as they shouldnt be able to run the ball also, but hope to see Shanahan strategy the receivers wide open in what could be a high-scoring event down in LA..
The 49ers missing their starting offensive tackles, and the rest for the Rams tip the scales in Los Angeles favor. I dont expect the Rams to lose three in a row. They know as a triumph from the 49ers could put some distance between the division title and the Rams, this is their chance to get back in the branch title search. The NFC West is really a race, so every game is vital. This Sunday, look to even up this race for the Rams and cover the NFL odds of -3.
