It’s time for us to look at each opponent and provide a reason for and against the 49ers beating them. We’ve included a poll for the community to vote on whether they expect a win or a loss and will see what kind of prediction this provides at the end.Week 1 @ Tampa Bay BuccaneersWeek 2 @ Cincinnati BengalsWeek 3 vs. Pittsburgh SteelersWeek 5 vs. Cleveland BrownsWeek 6 @ Los Angeles RamsWeek 7 @ WashingtonWeek 8 vs. Carolina PanthersIn Week 9 the 49ers begin a gauntlet of divisional opponents, starting with a road trip to face the Arizona Cardinals. You can read our opponent preview to see what the Cardinals have been up to. The Cardinals picked first in the 2019 NFL Draft. This means either a team suffered a bevy of injuries or just plain stunk. The Cardinals were the latter, winning only three games. One was against the Green Bay Packers and cost Mike McCarthy his job, and the other two were against the San Francisco 49ers. That’s right, and the 49ers couldn’t beat what may have been the worst team in the league. If you were not privy to witness this sort of personal torture, consider yourself lucky. It sounds like an awful two hours, that’s because it was. Both games were boring for about three quarters until the end when some craziness happens that secured the win for Arizona. This is one of those games you say “Yep,” but given the 49ers’ past history, we can’t write off the Cardinals. Reason for: Cardinals offensive lineThe 49ers’ defensive line has been impressive so far in training camp. While it’s only the first few days (which is when the defenses are performing better than offense), there’s been nothing but good things coming from those reporting on it on how nasty this line can be. The first of the Cardinals’ two first-round quarterback picks in two years was Josh Rosen, who took 45 sacks in 2019. Heading into Week 16, this line was ranked dead last by Pro Football Focus in 2018. So what did the Cardinals do to address this? Grabbing J.R. Sweezy in free agency and burning a sixth and seventh-round pick on linemen. That’s not going to fix your issues. Not in a year at least. Heading into 2019, PFF has the Cardinals offensive line ranked 30th. The same issues Rosen had as a quarterback are going to hit Murray. It can’t be overstated how a bad offensive line can be detrimental to a young quarterback’s development. The phantom pressure http://www.49erslockerroom.com/authentic-steve-young-jersey , happy feet—all of it can hinder development.Well, you put Murray behind this line, and have a defensive line like the 49ers that could bein the top-10 for 2019? Maybe they get to Murray before Larry Fitzgerald’s heroics ruin our lives once again. Reason against: It’s the [site-decorum] CardinalsLook, I know the 49ers stunk last year, but I still don’t get how they lost to the Cardinals twice, and I’m guessing the Cardinals don’t know how they won those games either. The 49ers did manage to beat the Seattle Seahawks in a game that was the season highlight for 49ers fans and embarrassment for the Seahawks. But the Cardinals, the 49ers can’t beat the Cardinals. Every heartbreak occurs in the final minutes. Or a bad snap. Or both. That happens, and we’re left alone, empty, with only a slice of pizza left to devour in our living rooms. On paper, the Cardinals have a long way to go, and the 49ers should beat them handily. The Cardinals are a divisional opponent, so it’s never that easy. Kyler Murray has also been getting some praise at camp and he either will be surprising teams with his relative inexperience in the league or beginning those rookie QB regressions we all know and love. The Cardinals have always caused problems for a variety of reasons. I’m not pinning it on anything other than the Cardinals have owned the 49ers for the last two years Womens Earl Mitchell Jersey , and some power may just keep that tradition going. At least the 49ers got Bosa. SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP)The 49ers appear to have found a promising piece for second-year coach Kyle Shanahan’s offense if the first week of training camp is any indication.Rookie Dante Pettis, a receiver drafted in the second round out of Washington, has been a quick study in Shanahan’s complex scheme. He’s also been a tough cover for opposing defensive backs, evident by his string of catches against the starting defense in full-team drills.In fact, Pettis closed Wednesday’s practice by catching a 45-yard touchdown pass from Jimmy Garoppolo, speeding by promising second-year player Ahkello Witherspoon, after earlier beating All-Pro Richard Sherman for a catch on a crossing route.Pettis’ ability to get open against physical NFL cornerbacks was a question mark after he was drafted. But Shanahan made a sizable bet that Pettis could do it given his work as a punt returner. Pettis set the NCAA record with nine punt return touchdowns during his four college seasons. He has been difficult to jam at the line of scrimmage in the early going.”If you can make guys miss with your feet when you have the ball in your hand, you should be able to do it in routes, too,” Shanahan said. ”To combine that with his speed and his hands and his intelligence, which he is very smart, you feel pretty confident that he’s going to continue to get better.”The 49ers traded up 15 spots in the second round to draft Pettis to add to a receiving corps headlined by dependable veteran Pierre Garcon and speedster Marquise Goodwin Marquise Goodwin Jersey White , who has also looked good during recent practices.Shanahan is hoping the offense can continue to progress after ranking third in yardage (410) and fifth in points per game (28.8) during the five-game winning streak with Garoppolo as a starter to end 2017.While Goodwin, a former Olympic long jumper, has textbook sprinting form, Pettis has anything but. He has long limbs and an awkward running style. But he still finds ways to move efficiently and get separation from defenders. He first figured out he had unique movement skills in the seventh grade.”I would watch film of me running and I was like, `Why do I run so different than everybody else?’ I didn’t really get it and then I was just like `All right, that’s just how I run’ and kind of accepted it,” said Pettis.Recent 49ers first-round draft picks have been bitten by the injury bug. Guard Joshua Garnett hasn’t practiced since banging knees with a teammate Saturday and is listed as day to day.Jimmie Ward has been sidelined since midway through Tuesday’s practice with a hamstring injury, though he could return as soon as Friday. Defensive lineman Arik Armstead is also dealing with a hamstring issue and has been listed as week-to-week.Ward and Armstead are expected to have significant roles for defensive coordinator Robert Saleh, who indicated he’s not overly concerned about their absences from camp. But given NFL teams are allowed just 14 padded practices during the regular season, they are missing opportunities to hone their crafts.”Anyone who’s missing reps right now is missing valuable time,” said Saleh. ”If you’re not getting your practice reps, someone’s going to pass you up. But, at the same time Jaquiski Tartt Jersey White , those guys are doing a great job in walk through and meetings and making sure they’re getting all of their mental reps so that when they do come back, they won’t skip a beat.”NOTES: TE Cole Wick suffered a knee injury during team drills Thursday and was scheduled for further testing, the team said. … LB Brock Coyle (hip) is expected to work back into practice next week, as will offensive lineman JP Flynn (knee) . LT Joe Staley, WR Pierre Garcon, CB Richard Sherman, RB Jerick McKinnon, DT Earl Mitchell, DT DeForest Buckner and LB Malcolm Smith were given Thursday off.—
