Well, this one is certainly interesting. This game was already an interesting one because of the playoff implications, but it took on a whole new tone with the announcement that Alex Smith would sit out with his concussion. We get to see Colin Kaepernick make his starting debut, and doing so against arguably the best defense in the NFL. This is gonna be something (a good or bad something remains to be seen!). I don't really have expectations at this point. It could be good, it could be bad. Who knows, but I'm kind of excited to see how it plays out.
GO NINERS!
