Point Spread: -2.00 | -130.00 49ers (SF) (Home)

There's too much of a defensive gap between these two teams for me to back the Rams. The timing isn't good either for LA.
San Francisco ranks third in fewest yards allowed and pass defense. The 49ers give up the fifth-fewest yards per play.
By comparison, the Rams rank in the bottom-nine in most major defensive categories, including scoring, total defense, pass defense, yards per play and run defense.
The Rams had no answer for the Bills this past Sunday giving up 44 points and 445 yards. Yet they still won. But now the Rams have to travel on a short week.
The prideful 49ers are in must-win mode at 6-7. They regained their confidence returning home last week and smashing the Bears, 38-13, after losing on the road to the Bills and Packers the previous two games.
