As the 49ers prepare to take on Arizona, they have played well on offense, ranking 7th in points per game at 25.8. Look for the team to put together another strong offensive performance, as they are facing a Cardinals defense that is ranked 29th in points per game. Although the 49ers come into the game ranked just 13th in pass yards per game, they will benefit from facing an Arizona secondary that is vulnerable through the air. On the ground, the 49ers should be in line for a good performance, as they are one of the better-rushing team's in the league and are facing a defense that has its problem stopping the run.
