The STICK Contingent San Fran FORTY-NINERS travel to FOXBORO to take on the PATRIOTS...HARBAUGH vs BELICHEK...49ERS D vs BRADY..Sunday Night Football...#SNF #SFvsNE NFL Week 15

After what the Patriots did to the Houston Texans now the San Fran 49ERS get to take a Shot at it. Forty-Niners QB Colin Kaepernick will be tested but the Patriots D gives you Yards but they are #2 in Takeaways with 34. The 49ers D when they are locked in are as good as any and they can out all that Intimidation Stuff on the Shelf and just play. Tom Terrific of Foxboro is on the Other Side and he has seen all that jazz before.

NFL Week 15

Sunday Night Football

8:20pm ET

San Fran FORTY-NINERS @ Foxboro vs the PATRIOTS

They 49ers must come out with the mind set of putting Long Drives together with the end result 7s not 3s. QB Colin Kaepernick will get tested but the Niners have a lot of Gadget Plays under their Sleeves and the Patriots need to be well aware of that. Niners RB Frank Gore has to be a Factor unlike the Texans RB Arian Foster who never got going. That was due in Large Part figuratively and literally speaking from Pats DT Vince Wilfork dominating. The Niners to have any sort of Run Game must block #75. TE Vernon Davis can be a Factor and the Niners must capitalize on the Vertical Game. WRs Manningham, Crab, and Moss all need to stay busy on that Pats Secondary. Can Kaepernick spread the Pigskin around enough to keep the Pats Secondary guessing?

The Niners D led by Backers Willis and Bowman along with the Smith Brothers, Aldon and Justin (No Relation), have to get pressure on Tom Brady. Can the 49ers get enough Pressure on the Brady with a 3 to 4 Man Front and drop 7 to 8 in Coverage? Welker and Hernandez are Huge Factors but Brady doesnt' have Favorites he just goes to whose Open. The Safeties Whitner and Goldon have to be able to cover Hernandez and even Welker as Brady is a Snake in the Passing Game. Do Not follow #12's Peepers Niners Safeties more times than not its a Trap.

Not going to be long talking Patriots Offense but look at these Numbers through Week 14:
Note: NFL Total Rankings 1 through 32 in Parenthesis

36.3 Pts. (1st)
425.7 Yds. (1st)
285.8 Pass Yds (5th)
139.9 Rush Yds (7th)

Niners they are 21-0 in December since 2010....and Good Luck.

Pats Defensively they are 26th in 3rd Down Percentage and the Recipe for Success against that Young Pats D is keep them on the Field and get 7s. Totals Yards is misleading because they have created 34 Turnovers. They are 29th vs the Pass but 8th vs the Run and Niners keep that Time Of Possession in your Favor.

The Niners are trying to keep their #2 Seed in the NFC as well as hold of the NFC West 2nd Place Seahawks. The Patriots are #2 in the AFC trying to be #1 with the Texans having to play the Colts Twice in Three Weeks and the AFC Movement has been Week to Week.

Winner: PATS 34-24 as Brady and that Offense finally get going....Kap plays well but can't make the PLAY to define the Game for the 49ers.
