NFL Week 5, 2019: 20 Bold predictions to consider

1. 49ers suffer first loss

Keeping the topic of discussion going with the San Francisco 49ers, it’s been amazing to watch the team live up to the hype so far in 2019 after looking at where this team was a year ago.

Expectations were rightfully high for the 49ers entering the 2018 season after the offense seemed to finally have found their quarterback to build the franchise around in Jimmy Garoppolo, but unfortunately the quarterback’s year was cut short after suffering a torn ACL.

Now that Garoppolo is fully healthy, and the offense is looking sharp, San Francisco is the lone remaining undefeated team within the NFC, although they are coming off a bye in Week 4.

With the Cleveland Browns coming to town, the 49ers certainly have the talent to improve to 4-0, but also there are a few factors that could work against them.

Not only are the Browns loaded with talent on both sides of the football that could give the 49ers some trouble, but also there’s always the fear of teams looking rusty after having a week off.

Take these factors into consideration along with the pressure that comes with playing on Monday night, that first loss of 2019 for San Francisco could be taking place.
