This week in 1957, a record 102,368 fans attended a game between the 49ers and Rams in LA. The Rams prevailed by a score of 37-24, cementing their victory when Joe Marconi had a one-yard rush in the 4th quarter. It just so happens we get a Rams/49ers matchup yet again this week!
A Few Notes for Week 10
- Indianapolis vs. Jacksonville looks like it could showcase a lot of running.
- Keep an eye on injuries to Nick Chubb, James Robinson, Chris Carson, Damien Harris and Zach Moss
- My gut feeling tells me, Pittsburgh, New Orleans, and the Rams go run-heavy this week.
- We should see some tandem work with Mike Davis/Cordarrelle Patterson, Jonathan Taylor/Nyheim Hines, Zach Moss/Devin Singletary, and Javonte Williams/Melvin Gordon III
