*** SAN FRANCISCO   -7   at   MINNESOTA

Right now the Niners are one of the most physically tough and mentally sound, and don't forget most well coached teams in the league right now.  In my opinion, they are the best team and should win the whole thing, but things tend to change throughout an NFL season, if you catch the drift.  They are traveling up north to play a poor football team, which with their focus and talent, they will dominate.  I like to pick on the bad teams early because: 1) The points that they are given seems to be generous to the favorite, because no one knows how bad they really are yet. 2) They probably don't even know all the things that make them bad yet this early in the season.  So how would they work on it when they don't know it's an issue yet.  Minnesota is 1-1 and their QB Christian Ponder looks pretty good, because of who they played in the first two games.  For all of you Alex Smith naysayers: The guy had a good year last year and with more around him, will be even better this year, and wait.  Here's a stat for you.  Did you know that Alex Smith, not Joe Cool, owns the 49ers record for most passing attempts without an interception?  Whoooaaa!  What a ya know.  He had 189 w/o a pick going into this past Lion's game and now has 220 and counting.  When you want to talk negatively about a player, you may want to know all about that player before you claim he's not capable of certain accomplishments.  These people will probably not admit, but they most likely hate on this guy because they see him make a few plays here and there in a game and that's all he has to do for his team to win.  Sorry the guy doesn't win the way you want him to.  All I know is he doesn't mess up much and is 16-4 as a starter under Harbaugh.  Now I usually like to wait a little while to make my play, due to an important player possibly getting hurt like on Friday.  You kind of have to bet some games early, like say Wednesday or Thursday, because lots of dough is going on your side and the line is sky rocketing on you.  Well, I've been continually checking and on my sites it hasn't moved once.  Even if it does go up to say 9, take it!  Lay the lumber son!  Vegas gives the home team an automatic 3 point favorite off top.  So if San Fran were playing them at home the spread would be -10, which is still not enough, in my opinion.
