The Niners figure they’re making progress with Mike Singletary at the helm, but this defense was burned by the Cowboys last week, as Tony Romo and Terrell Owens went wild. Speaking of going wild, that’s exactly what Trent Edwards and the Buffalo offense did against Kansas City, as they scored 54 points, which is the second highest total intheir 49-season history.
Edwards (273 passing yards) had two touchdown passes and two TD runs against the Chiefs, and the defense is producing points, as Leodis McKelvin, the rookie from Troy, returned an interception for a touchdown. McKelvin, if you recall, also brought back a kickoff the week before for a TD against Cleveland. The Bills needed that Kansas City win, as they are able to stay two games in back of the Jets and one back of New England in the hyper-competitive AFC East.
Wide receiver Josh Reed has come back to the lineup, and that has brought a nice balance, and Lee Evans responded to that with 110 yards through the air last week. Is this the “buy” sign for Buffalo? Well, we don’t know, but with the Niners’ penchant for giving up big plays, Buffalo should advance the ball. On San Francisco’s side, Frank Gore (860 yards, 4.5 ypc) could well give his team the edge at ruinning back, and Shawn Hill, despite throwing an interception last week, had 303 yards passing.
It’s interesting that Mike Singletary had gotten such a reputation for being a top-flight assistant before taking the head coaching reins on an interim basis, even though his stop unit has been subpar. We’ll look for San Francisco to continue its ongoing trend, and weather permitting, we’re going OVER the 42.5 points as it is posted in the BetUS NFL pro football betting odds.
