The 49ers can get to 8-8 with a win tomorrow against a Rams team that they battered 35-0 in San Francisco earlier this season.  The 49ers will probably try to run a balanced offense tomorrow with Frank Gore running and Alex Smith throwing.  Gore should have success running against a Niners’ D that is allowing 138.4 yards rushing and 4.4 yards per carry this season.  The Rams don’t have much of a pass rush so Alex Smith should have more than enough time to get the ball to Vernon Davis, Josh Morgan and Michael Crabtree against a Rams’ D allowing 237.3 yards passing per game.

The 49ers’ D will likely be aggressive against the Rams and gang up on Steven Jackson if he’s healthy enough to play tomorrow.  Rookie QB Keith Null will likely be starting against the Niners tomorrow so expect them to get a couple pick-offs in this game. 

PREDICTION:  49ERS 27, RAMS 7
