NFL: San Francisco 49ers vs Arizona Cardinals matchup analysis

The 9ers will host the Cardinals after the heartbreaking loss against the Chargers last saturday, SF will play just to their pride exactly the opposite of AZ who will play to get the 1st seed in the NFC with some help from other fields.

The Cards will let play the 4th QB on the depth chart L.Thomas at the place of struggling QB Lindley who made 2 straight awful losing starts, none doesn't know how Thomas will be on an NFL field and along with the absence of Ellington will be difficult for them to attack the very good 9ers defense but fortunately for the Cards the SF's defense will be very short handed due to the new absences after the notorious ones from earlier in the season, yes because even FS Reid and MLB Borland won't play in the last game of this season and also LOLB Brooks is questionable. It's so difficult to say who will win the battle between SF defense and AZ offense due to the quantity of important injuries on both sides but i still think SF has a lil edge in this fight. On the other side Kaepernick will need to pass the ball so much more than he usually does because  he will face 1 of the best defenses against the runs in the NFL but at the same time 1 of the worst against the passes because even the defensive backs play committed to the run, so the best to attack them are play actions and screens something that Kaepernick can do so well, he also need to target more his TE Vernon Davis who can be a nightmare for the Cards defense with his lethal mix of size and speed.
WHO HAS THE EDGE ANALYSIS ROLE BY ROLE
QB: SF
RB: SF
WR: AZ
TE: SF
O-LINE: SF
D-LINE AZ
LB: SF 
CB: AZ
S: AZ
K: TIE
ST: TIE

My prediction for the final result is: 49ers 20 Cardinals 19 with Kaepernick as the MVP and Patrick Peterson as the X-factor who could change the game. I think this will be an hard battle for both of those teams but i think SF has a slight edge due to AZ key absences in QB and RB positions.
