Tampa Bay Buccaneers (6-3)<\/strong><\/p>\n

I never thought I\u2019d say it, but the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are starting to make a believer out of me. They\u2019ve won three of four and, in the only loss over that span, they pushed the Falcons very hard in Atlanta. Josh Freeman looks like a legit MVP candidate so far; he has 12 touchdown passes versus five interceptions this season. He also recorded the best passer rating of his career last week against an above-average Carolina pass defense after throwing for 241 yards with two touchdown passes and no picks.<\/p>\n

Freeman embodies a Tampa team that seems to excel in close games. Of his nine career wins, six were punctuated by fourth-quarter comebacks. Slowly but surely, the support system around him is growing, Arrelious Benn and especially Mike Williams are ahead of the curve as rookie wideouts. Bruising runner LeGarrette Blount seems poised to take over featured back role down the stretch if he hasn\u2019t already. The Oregon product has gashed opponents for 329 rushing yards and three touchdowns over his last four games. Cadillac who?<\/p>\n

The Bucs\u2019 \u201cD\u201d remains a work in progress \u2013 it ranks 31st<\/sup> against the run \u2013 but Tampa has done a good job defending the pass, ranking eight in the league. Aqib Talib is emerging as an elite defensive back; he leads the team with five picks.<\/p>\n

San Francisco 49ers (3-6)<\/strong><\/p>\n

The 49ers have also won three of their last four games and are creeping back into the wide-open NFC West race. The catalyst has been Troy Smith. The 2006 Heisman Trophy winner turned backup quarterback got his chance to start when Alex Smith got hurt and it doesn\u2019t look like Troy will give the job back.<\/p>\n

In his two starts, Troy Smith has led the 49ers to two victories. And it\u2019s not like he\u2019s just playing game manager. Smith has thrown for 552 yards over that span with no turnovers. Like Freeman, he\u2019s showing a knack for clutch performances, having led fourth-quarter scoring drives in both games. \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Led by ultra-talented and physical linebacker Patrick Willis, San Francisco\u2019s \u201cD\u201d has really turned around during its surge. Over the last four games, the 49ers have held opponents to 322 total yards and 17 points per contest. <\/p>\n

The pick:<\/strong><\/p>\n

This feels like an unstoppable-force-meets-immovable-object matchup. Both teams have a ton of momentum. Something has to give.<\/p>\n

On one hand, San Francisco has a lot going for it.\u00a0 Bellcow running back Frank Gore should stomp on Tampa\u2019s Swiss-Cheese run defense. Also, Tampa Bay hasn\u2019t won a game at San Francisco in 30 years.<\/p>\n

On the other, it doesn\u2019t feel right betting against Freeman these days. I know Troy Smith has shown a lot in his two starts \u2013 but I\u2019d like to see him do it longer before anointing him as San Francisco\u2019s savior. If the 49ers can\u2019t stop Freeman and Blount, they\u2019ll fall behind. Gore will become less of a factor and Smith may have to air it out. That could be problematic against a Tampa team tied for second in the NFL with 14 interceptions.<\/p>\n

I\u2019d expect an extremely close, hard-fought game, probably decided by a field goal. But I\u2019ll go with Josh \u201cBig Game\u201d Freeman to help Tampa end its drought in the City by the Bay.<\/p>\n
