Lions +7/ML

[Justin3587]

So, I was trolling through this, and I noticed that you said that TE match up was even.... hahah...

[GunShard]

Yes, Megatron is the best reciever in this game and the 49ers should be able to win.

Vernon Davis 2011, 67 receptions, 792 yards, 6td's

Brandon Pettigew 2011, 83 receptions, 777 yards, 5td's

What's so funny? Looks pretty even to me

[StackinGreen]

I think the Lions are mentally weak, especially on the road. Stafford will get rushed and make bad decisions with the ball. Alex smith won't. SF can run, Lions can not. Lions have Calvin, but you know Harbaugh will gameplan against him. I think San Fran wins by about 10

Yup. I feel bad the OP doesn't know how to reason.

[cumatmebrah]

Why the fuk would you take lions +7

Games a pass, and 9ers lean if gf told me she wouldn't giver anymore blumpkins unless i made a pick

Get real bro. That's a MEDIOCRE season to Vernon Davis. GTFO

[fergie's balls]

SF best team in NFL on home opener...anybody wants to go against them should stand back and ask why, no reason to think being sharp, just leave it alone.

[onlooker]

His best season was 78/965/13.

He averages 50 catches, 633 yards and just under 6 TD's a season.

So last year wasn't MEDIOCRE, but more like ABOVE AVERAGE for Vernon.

[bobbyk1133]

This is the most interesting game on the board IMO. 49ers are getting so much fckin hype after Week 1 they've been inflated 3 points on the line. Ok we all know their D is good, but are people really sold on this 49ers offense? Take a closer look at that game vs GB they were still 2-9 on 3rd down. This offense absolutely sucks in make or break situations.

The Lions offense is pretty damn finesse so it's gonna be a grind for them, but I really like how their front seven on defense matchup. They could really use a guy like Delmas, but Houston is returning which should help the secondary some.

Lions +7 looks enticing...especially with a good chance at a backdoor cover.

[GunShard]

One of my gambling rules. I think you're on the Lions because your a Lions fan.

6. Be a strategic gambler by picking your spots and wait for the right opportunity. Never be an impulsive gambler by betting for the action, just because it feels good or it's your favorite team. Patience is virtue.

Really? You are gonna count his rookie season in which he only played 10 games? Vernon Davis is a top 5 TE. To compare he and Brandon Pettigrew is DUMB. Brandon Pettigrew is a mediocre tight end.

57/707/6 averages without rookie year. Still a ABOVE AVERAGE season last year.

To say last year was MEDIOCRE for V.Davis is DUMB.

stats don't tell the whole story my friend. why even watch the games, just look at box scores at next day.

[t-wizzle]

Last meeting has nothing to do with this one. Going to be a tough game for Detroit but 7 seems like a lot to lay with San Fran.

[matt1216]

How does Detroit keep this close?????? megatron will be covered all day!!!!! Detroits O line will get punished and Matty will get sacked numerous times. Plus Det has no D at all.


SF Wins 30-7

[Goat Milk]

Lions are dirty players

They fight for their coach

Smith not a good qb. Lions D line should pound him.

Det has the best or second best D line in all of football. Fact.

Game is won at the line of scrimmage so we'll see who shows up.

[matt1216]

R u serious???? Dets one reciever is not better than SF's verstile group! SF O line will give alex smith all day to throw. You atch Carlos Rogers will come up with some big plays!!!

Really......... since when does Stlouis put up 20 + points in a game on the road if dets D is that good???

Most of those points came off turnovers. If you check, Bradford didn't have a good game and SJax pretty much got shut down. Field position was key in that game.

Lions secondary is horrible especially if Delmas is going to be out. But the front 4 is as good as their is in the game today. Suh is the best T in football.

Besides, you can't judge NFL games based on previous games. It doesn't work that way.

Fair enough, but Alex Smith is also a QB playing with way more confidence than last year. SF has a very underated offense + THE BEST secondary. Dets front 4 may get to Smith but i dont think it will matter because i think SF will Give up maybe 1 TD. If guys are on the Lions there gonna have to hope For a 14-10 4th qtr type game, i just dont see it happening tho

[jetsjets1028]

theyll prob lose by more than that... they almost lost at home to STL and SF won in GB and had extra time to prepare and rest.

ya i think it will be 24-7 30-7 type game SF will go 14-2 this year

[Goat Milk]

Disagree here. THere's way DET will only score 7 points in this game. 17 minimum. We're talking about the best WR in the game and a QB that frequently throws past 20 yards. SF D is the same exact as it was last year. I don't doubt that SF will win but no chance DET scores 7 points.

Aside from the Patriots and maybe the Texans and Packers, no team can move the ball down the field at will like the Lions. You are underestimating their offense for sure. It's a QB league today. No matter how good your corners are, if a great QB has time in the pocket to throw, your gonna get burned. Why do you think Brees ripped the niners last year in the playoffs? Niners won that game because of offense.

[ThaTopMoron]

teaser play #1 SF down to -1

Lions snuck out that week 1 win Rams blew coverage on RB. Lions go 1-1 to start the season just like GB and Chicago.

If Dets Offense is that good, they should have schooled Saints League worst defense last year in the playoffs...... am i wrong???????? i believe they only had 28 points i know its last year but pretty much the same offense. Your right Det has the best reciver but i guarentee u SF at the very least double teams Megatron all day. His other recievers will have to step it up.

No you're not wrong. DET offense can be streaky. I think it's going to be like a 3-5 point game personally but I guess we'll find out. It's gonna be a great football game. Trust me, it won't be a blowout.

Id like to see a close game but i want to put SF in a Teaser. lol, I just dont trust Det at all. I guess we will see

Heres a thought, The only reason why The TE'S stats are close, is becaue the Lions were playing fom behind alot more tat the 49ers were. When your forced to throw in the second half of many games, you will see more balls come your way. SF played with the lead alot, thus ground and pound was the option in the 3rd and 4th qtrs. If Vernon Davis was on the Lion for last year, he would ve killed Pettigews stats.

[Goat Milk]

Davis is much better than Pet imo. Guy is one of the fastest if not the fastest TE i've ever seen
