Niners MVP vs Giants Prediction
We all feel good about winning this game, so who's going to be MVP?
The stats are just potential stat lines that could lead to the person being the MVP. If you disagree with the stats, but still favor the player, just vote the player and throw your own stats in comments. No, this is not a guarantee for each player and cannot be viewed as cumulative stats. Hopefully something fun to discuss.
I'm going to go with Alex Smith. He picked apart the Giants last game and was only slowed down by a bad drop for an INT and some issues converting in the red zone. Our red zone offense is much better now and I don't think the Giants playing more man to man coverage is going to help them. My 2 cents and yes I left Andy Lee off, because I don't want to see him run away with this poll. He'll be off the hook as usual, but is unlikely to be the MVP.

Crabtree/Williams
These two are going to be huge for us this weekend, as the Giants are going to everything in their power to completely shut down Davis. I would bet on 100+ and a TD for Crabtree, and 80+ and a TD for Williams.
I'm taking #11
His confidence has just been building all season long…and as they say, it takes “peaking at the right time” – and I think the timing for Smith to continue to have another big performance is perfect. With the rain, I don’t think he’ll pass for over 300 yards, but I don’t expect Eli to either. I like the projected numbers you’ve got up for him – I think they’re absolutely realistic, and add that with quality run support from Gore and Hunter, I think it makes for a winning combination on Sunday.

Hopefully Gore
contributes this time. It should be a huge boost to have him healthy smashing through the middle of their D and helping in pass protection.

That's probably due to the fact...
that it’s widely expected that the Giants defense is going to point to him as “the guy we’re not going to let beat us” – but I really think that’s going to open up the passing game for guys like Williams, Crabtree and Walker (assuming he plays). IF those guys can get rolling, they may have to ease off of they’re coverage of Vernon. If Vernon’s going to have a HUGE game, the bulk of it will come in the second half.

Harbaugh
2 for 2 on challenges and not using the third
Frank Gore / O line all the way
If the the weather is like this Sunday then yes our running game will shine.
Californa is world PVP at it's finest.
It's not like we're playing the Colts on Sunday.
"It might be time to give Alex some credit, huh?" - Harbaugh
"How about the game gets played first"
is probably the most — and only — reasonable response someone could have to a speculative post like this one.
I don't see a problem with predicting who the MVP is going to be
how is it different from the prediction games or the Alex Smith prediction contest?
"Cruelty, It’s not giving another person what they want. That’s our mindset on defense, to go out and play with everything we have and not give the other team anything." -Patrick Willis
I'm going out on a limb
and picking Goldson. The giants love those sideline throws and are very good at them. Dashon will need to fly around on Sunday as he has been and continue to make plays. I predict 7 tackles 3 pds/ints and two bone crunching hits.
I just had to say this
Imagine if you would have asked this question in August. You would have been forced to leave the internet if you would have put Alex in the poll with those stats. Plus you would have been ridiculed as a crazy homer for thinking the 9ers could make the NFC Championship.
Alex is leading right now!
How amazing is it that things have changed so much? How fun has this ride been? This is so awesome.
Can you imagine a little kid just standing there and getting picked on. They get rocks thrown at them. Spit on them. Alex’s just one of those guys, he’s been there. I just wish him all the best. I want to see him successful. I just want to see all good things happen to that guy. Because he is a warrior.-VD
Gore!
It better be. Not much of an honor to MVP in a losing effort.
The Mighty Men upfront on both sides of the Ball ...!!
I'm your " Huckelberry "...it's just my game ..( .AleX ) was asked , what do you think about all the game manager talk ... AleX i guess i just managed myself a VIctory ... Extend the Man ...!!
We all feel good?
I think the 49ers have a good chance of winning, but I rarely feel good going into a game against a quality opponent.
Alex Smith
Almost said Gore and Hunter, but the Giants will double Davis as stated in an earlier comment. Smith will spread the ball around to many targets, which he’s done over and over.
