San Francisco 49ers – Can they go from nowhere to the Super Bowl?
Those who have been following the predictions will know that I fancied the 49ers to do good things from before the start of the season. They seemed like a team that were quietly working hard. There were no reports of upset on the run up to pre-season and other than the Michael Crabtree saga, there has been little to worry us since.
Now, I am a gambling/trading man and before the start of the season you could get the 49ers at odds of 120 (119/1). In fact in one market someone has already made £7,000 trading on this bet before we are even half way through the season!
I see MJD over at the Yahoo NFL blog has them firmly in his play off picture. I have to say that I agree with him. I love the way they have been playing so far and I see no real reason for it to stop. Even with Frank Gore injured, it took some Favre magic to stop them last Sunday. This Sunday sees them face the Rams at home, so there should be little to worry them there.
So, can the 49ers make the Super Bowl? Let us know what you think.

The 49ers have arrived and are settling into London and the UK timezone for a good number of days ahead of Sunday’s game. Yesterday Alex Smith underwent some tests on his shoulder, but it’s still not known at this point if he’ll be able to play or not. If he can’t, expect to see some

Hi, I’m Chris and I’m a Dallas Cowboys fan (don’t boo!). I first started watching American Football at about 6 years old when Channel Four here in the UK used to air an early morning highlight show at the weekends. At the time the Cowboys were just putting together the roster that would go on
Week 5, 2010: Philadelphia Eagles @ San Francisco 49ers

After getting last weeks prediction drastically wrong I’m beginning to think that I’m in the wrong business! Nevertheless, I’ll stick with it and overcome this slump I’ve fallen into. For week 5 I’ll be travelling to Candlestick Park in San Francisco, California and checking out the Philadelphia Eagles at the 49ers. As part of our

The season is so close now, I know we’re all getting excited here. The final week of pre-season saw the second teams (and below) get their chance to shine. Denver Broncos Although it was hoped that Elvis Dumervil would play some part this season, it’s not to be the case as he’s been placed on

What’s been happening this week for the two NFL teams bound for the UK later this year? Denver Broncos Elvis Dumervil left practice holding his arm earlier this week and the injury (actually to his chest) could keep him out for the season. This highlights the dangerous nature of contracts and the NFL, even in

I think the 49ers have a strong hold and their division and will most likely win it. Their week 1 win in Arizona will go a long way towards that. Right now they are taking advantage of playing in the weakest division in the NFC. Making it through the playoffs will be a different story. I don’t know if they can handle teams like the Vikings and Saints. There are still questions if they could go to New York and Green Bay and win in January. They have played stronger teams tough in the past but there is a difference between playing them tough and winning.
