NFL week 4 picks

Rams vs. 49ers Despite being out of any post season ambitions, Rams had beaten teams like 49ers, Seahawks, Redskins and Ravens at home, last season. They played couple times with 49ers and didn’t lose neither of them. Despite not having a reliable running back, ’13 Rams team is definitely a better version of last season. The transactions made during the summer had positive effects, as expected. QB S.Bradford has more reliable targets, he has a much better O-Line and has couple more explosive receivers, compared to last season. People has the tendency to think like, no team with calibre of 49ers will not lose 3 straight times. It’s not a totally misguided thought, but this is a team scored only 10 points in last 2 games, and one of those games was at home against a woeful Colts’ defense. Kaep played two consecutive horrible games, he got sacked almost 3 times per game this season and he seems to struggle because of receiver shortage. 49ers turned the ball 4 times more then its opponents, it’s obvious they’re not clicking right now, despite I believe they’ll eventually get better and will be thereabouts at the end of the season. 49ers won 3 times at St.Louis in last 5 season, but those wins were against 2-14, 1-15 and 2-14 Rams teams. Rams is returning home after couple games on the road, in last couple seasons they became a team hard to crack at home and they’ll face a 49ers team with numerous problems, which can’t get handled in a short week. I can’t speculate about a winner, but I believe Rams will keep this very close at least, on home turf. Rams(+3) 3/10 @1.971

Re: NFL week 4 picks Thursday night preview: 4pts Under 42pts 1.95 Betfred San Francisco have looked unconvincing so far this season, particularly on offense, but in fairness to them it is still tough to throw on them so unless St Louis can establish a run game then I would expect the home side to struggle. Given San Francisco’s struggles on offense themselves I think this one could be a low scoring, defensive battle and one where I don’t think we’ll see more than 42pts.
