Interest stat in Maiocco's blog yesterday: In the 67 49ers games since 2004, the 49ers have won 19 games and only two of them were by more than a touchdown. Today's game had an opening line of -3.5 and has since moved to -5. Folks are putting money down on the 49ers because let's face it, Detroit just doesn't appear to be that good.
Good teams, playoff teams, are able to win decisively over teams they're clearly better than. A crappier team might stick around, but the good teams eventually put them away. We don't know for sure (or really even at all) if the 49ers are a good team. Last week's game was mentioned by MM as a "GPS game" and I think this might count as one as well in a manner of speaking. As banged up as Seattle was last week, it was still the four-time defending NFC West champs. This week, the 49ers appear to be the better team, and accordingly, they should handle their business. The 49ers need to take the early lead and then they need to go for the jugular. We'll see if they can step up and do it.
And just a reminder, but I posted the link above to the FanPost discussing potential options for streaming video of the game if you aren't in the viewing region. Here it is again, if you missed it.

Im taking the niners -5
Pick – Take the 49ers -5. Mike Martz has found his QB for his system in J.T. O’Sullivan. Look for the 49ers to go 2-1. The Lions need to get their offense going. Their defense has given up 460.5 yards per game. Frank Gore and O’Sullivan should have a field day.

probably seen this already, but here's Kitna on O'Sullivan
"I don’t know how to describe it except for I’ve never been around a person that can throw the ball as firmly and as accurately as he can with as quick of a release," said Kitna. "He looks like he’s in a situation where he’d be lucky to get a five yard throw off and he can uncork a 20 yard throw with some velocity on it, and that’s pretty amazing really. There are just not a lot of guys who have ever played this game who can throw like that. I don’t know where he learned it or where he got it from, but I think that it pretty amazing really."
