49ers vs. Rams 1st Quarter Thread: Don’t Give LA Hope

This feels like a game where Brandon Aiyuk reminds everyone why the San Francisco 49ers gave him $120 million this offseason. Despite not having George Kittle or Deebo Samuel, the Niners have plenty of ammunition to score at will against the Los Angeles Rams.

Marvin Harrison Jr. and Jameson Williams have both passed for 100+ yards in each of the previous two games, including 50+ yard receptions. Today is a game where the Niners can spam targets to Aiyuk.

While it’s technically an away game, the 49ers faithful will be in full force at Levi’s South. There won’t be any snap count issues in Week 3 for the Niners. Perhaps that will help the pass rush come to life, as it’s been inconsistent so far this season.

There’s also little reason to believe Jordan Mason won’t be able to run for 100-plus yards against the Rams’ battered and inexperienced defensive line.

What the Niners cannot afford is to give the Rams false hope and hang on.
