Arrangement HISTORY:
135th meeting. The 49ers lead the arrangement, 67-64-3. The 49ers won the last meeting, which speaks to their exclusive win of the season. It arrived in a 28-0 victory on the opening end of the week on a broadly broadcast Monday night diversion.
KEYS TO THE GAME:
A considerable measure has changed for both groups since the opener. Both have changed beginning quarterbacks. Both have endured wounds along the hostile line. Both have been reliably outcoached week in and week out.
Los Angeles is toward the end in the NFL at 14.1 focuses per amusement. San Francisco is 26th at 18.9 ppg.
Both are in the base portion of the NFL in hostile generation, particularly in the passing amusement. Driven first by Case Keenum and now by battling tenderfoot Jared Goff, the Rams normal 200 passing yards for every diversion, 29th in the NFL.
The Rams' offense is toward the end in the NFL at 278.8 yards for every diversion general. The Rams have the 2015 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year, running back Todd Gurley, yet are 31st in the NFL in hurrying with only 78.6 yards a diversion.
On the off chance that the offense were better, the unit could exploit a beat up and permeable 49ers guard. San Francisco positions toward the end in the NFL in focuses (31), yards (424.9) and hurrying yards (176.3) permitted. In the event that Gurley will scramble for more than 100 yards in 2016, this must be the amusement.
With Blaine Gabbert and now Colin Kaepernick running the offense, the 49ers are the most noticeably bad passing group in the NFL, averaging 176.2 yards.
The Rams have been great against the pass and rank eleventh generally speaking, surrendering 337.5 yards for every amusement. Protective handle Aaron Donald proceeds with his predominance of hostile linemen and was compensated for the current week with his third Pro Bowl gesture.
MATCHUPS TO WATCH:
- 49ers RB Carlos Hyde versus Rams run safeguard. Hyde is back at full quality after a middle of the season bear damage, and that is awful news for the Rams. Despite the fact that they knew he was coming, the Rams permitted Hyde to scramble for 88 yards and two touchdowns in the season opener.
- Rams RB Todd Gurley versus 49ers run guard. Gurley hasn't had about the season the Rams had foreseen, and that started with a 17-convey, 47-yard flounder in the season-opening misfortune to the 49ers. San Francisco has gone ahead to wind up distinctly the most exceedingly awful run guard in the alliance, far more regrettable than the one that saw Gurley smolder them for 133 yards and a touchdown the last time he had a home diversion against the 49ers.
