The San Francisco 49ers will host the Arizona Cardinals in NFL Week 12 action. What five bold predictions can be made for the game and what should fans be on the lookout for throughout the game?
1. Blaine Gabbert Will Throw at Least Three Interceptions
Since benching Colin Kaepernick, the 49ers simply haven't seen a consistent version of Blaine Gabbert. He was known as a bust during his tenure with the Jacksonville Jaguars and isn't going to have a good game this week against the Cardinals' defense. Gabbert will throw at least three interceptions throughout the course of the game.
2. Carson Palmer Totals 350 Yards, Four Tochdowns
San Francisco used to have one of the NFL's best defense, but that certainly hasn't been the case for the 49ers this season. Carson Palmer is going to have a big game against their weak secondary and will total at least 350 yards and four touchdowns. Arizona has shown the ability to consistently make big plays through the air and that will not change this week against San Francisco.
3. San Francisco Records at Least Three Sacks
While the 49ers don't have the best defense, they still have a few talented pass rushers. They are going to get to Carson Palmer and sack him at least three times throughout the course of the game. Palmer is still going to shred their defense apart through the air, but he won't do so without taking a few big hits.
4. Chris Johnson Totals 125 Yards, Two Touchdowns
One of the bigger surprises of the NFL season this year has been the re-emergence of Chris Johnson. He was a major superstar during his career with the Tennessee Titans, but disappeared the last couple seasons wit the Titans and with the Jets last season. Johnson will total 125 yards and two touchdowns in the game this week and will continue his impressive season.
5. Arizona Pulls Off a Blowout Victory Over the 49ers
There is no question that the Cardinals are the better football team by far and they will blow the 49ers out. Carson Palmer will lead the offense to a big number on the scoreboard and Blaine Gabbert won't stand a chance against the Arizona defense These two teams aren't even close to being evenly matched and Arizona will improve to 9-2 with the victory.
