The San Francisco 49ers have reasons to be disappointed with the state of the team in 2018 http://www.49erscheapstore.com/kyle-juszczyk-jersey-cheap , but there are positives to take away from what we have seen thus far. One of the most notable has been the breakout season by second-year tight end George Kittle.Kittle put together some decent numbers his rookie season, catching 43 passes for 515 yards and two touchdowns while working through an assortment of bumps and bruises. Through five games this season, he has caught 23 passes for 399 yards — putting him on pace for 73 receptions, 1,276 receiving yards, and three touchdowns.Among tight ends, Kittle currently ranks fifth in receptions, third in yards, and second in yards per reception among tight ends with at least ten receptions. Football Outsiders currently ranks him fourth among tight ends in DYAR and 11th in DVOA. A higher DYAR means more total value, while a higher DVOA means more value per play. Over at Pro Football Focus, Kittle is tied for second among tight ends in yards per route run, and is listed with one drop on the season.The tight end position is fairly AFC heavy. In terms of receiving yards Youth Jaquiski Tartt Jersey , Zach Ertz tops the list and Kittle is third, but the remaining five in the top seven are AFC tight ends. The next NFC tight ends are Jimmy Graham (8th), Kyle Rudolph (9th), and O.J. Howard (10th).Given that Ertz plays for the defending Super Bowl champs, odds are pretty good he gets voted onto the 2019 Pro Bowl roster. Jimmy Graham and Kyle Rudolph are notable tight end names, but if Kittle can remain anywhere close to his current pace, or at the very least, surpass 1,000 receiving yards, I would be shocked if he did not get a Pro Bowl nod, at least as an alternate.Given how this season has gone, he stands a good chance of getting the kinds of regular looks he needs to bumps his stats. He has led the team in receiving four of the first five weeks. The team’s wide receiver corps has been shaky at best this season Youth Alfred Morris Jersey , particularly with Marquise Goodwin sidelined. When Goodwin returns, we’ll see if there are changes to who gets regular looks from C.J. Beathard.This weekend, the 49ers travel to face a Green Bay Packers squad that Football Outsiders ranks No. 14 in covering tight ends. Kittle has faced some bad tight end defenses this year, with Minnesota currently ranked No. 31, Detroit ranked No. 26, KC ranked No. 22, and Arizona ranked No. 23. It is interesting to note, however, that the Los Angeles Chargers currently rank No. 1 in covering tight ends. Kittle had his 82-yard touchdown reception in that game, and finished the day with six receptions for 125 yards and the touchdown. The San Francisco 49ers host the New York Giants on Monday as a three-point favorite. The line opened at a field goal, and really has not changed all that much at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark. You can find 3.5 points in quite a few sportsbooks, but I can pick them at three points in the SuperContest.I’m still trying to figure out my pick Cheap Solomon Thomas Jersey , but I wanted to open the floor to see what people think about this matchup. I spoke with Ed Valentine over at Big Blue View, and “depressed Giants fan” might be the best description.In my initial prediction for the game, I told Ed that I could see this being something like 23-20. I’d love to see the 49ers smoke the Giants, but Nick Mullens is such a huge x-fact. The Giants are a bad team, but can Mullens build on his impressive performance against Oakland? I don’t know if anybody can say yes with real confidence.In our weekly FanPulse survey, 49ers fans predicted a six-point win and Giants fans predicted a two-point loss. How do you see it shaking out? I’ve included a poll below based on the spread. I was going to combine “lose” with “49ers win by less than 3” to create a “not cover the spread” option. Instead, I separated them out so they are effectively, cover the spread, push, do not cover the spread but win, and lose outright.
