August 15, 2016 - 9:18 am
The Review-Journal’s Matt Youmans, Las Vegas handicapper Dave Cokin and Golden Nugget sports book director Tony Miller preview the 49ers’ season in the fourth of a series of 32 NFL team videos:
- Chip Kelly, who wore out his welcome in Philadelphia, takes over as coach of a 49ers team off a five-win season. Can Kelly work enough magic to turn things around?
- Is Kelly a phony, and might San Francisco be the worst team in the NFL? The 49ers’ minus-149 point differential was second worst in the league last season.
- Colin Kaepernick, a talented quarterback who lost confidence last year, could be primed for a big comeback.
- Why is San Francisco a 2-point home underdog against the Los Angeles Rams in the Sept. 12 season opener?
- Over or Under 5½ regular-season wins?
