By the Numbers

This is for sale on the internet.
Seriously.


With a very talented Eagles squad looming on the horizon for their next matchup, the Niners have to start performing better on the offensive side of the football. Here's this week's look at the numbers:

Total Offense: 213.7 yards per game (ranked 32nd - that's dead last in the league)
Passing Offense: 144 yards per game (ranked 28th)
Rushing Offense: 69.7 yards per game (ranked 30th)
Yards per rush: 2.5 (ranked 30th)
Sacks allowed: 11 (ranked 27th)

Total Defense: 306.3 yards allowed per game (ranked 7th)
Passing Defense: 243.7 yards allowed per game (ranked 16th - a big improvement)
Rushing Defense: 62.7 yards allowed per game (ranked 3rd)
Sacks: 7 total (tied for 16th)

Good News/Bad News Dept.
Good News: Alex Smith ranks 13th in the league with a 91.3 passer rating and 4th in the league with a 68.9 completion rate
Bad News: Smith ranks 22nd in yards per attempt, 28th in passing yards per game and 31st in longest completion
Good News: Vernon Davis was a big part of the offensive attack against the Bengals and now leads the team with 179 receiving yards
Bad News: Davis' total ranks 42nd in the league for total yards. No other Niner has passed the 100-yard mark in total yardage for the season (Joshua Morgan is 2nd on the team with 80 receiving yards, placing him at 114th).
Good News: If you watched last Sunday's game, you witnessed NFL history.
Bad News: The reason why history was made against the Bengals is because it was the first time an NFL game resulted in a 13-8 final score.
