Wilson is the weak point of the team and the reason the 49ers will win this game.

Not anymore, actually the hints Clayton has put out there about choosing Wilson over Flynn is really interesting. He still believes that Carroll just should have chosen Flynn because Wilson was inevitably going to have rookie mistakes. However, he also said that once it was an open competition he had to give it to Wilson -- Wilson outworked Flynn, he came in earlier, stayed later, and put in more of an effort and had better pre season games. At that point what are you going to do?

The weak point of that team is their penalty machine O-Line (which also sucks at pass protection). Wilson has an 85 QB rating with a poor receiving corp that has directly caused four interceptions. Outside of Lynch, Russell is the best player on that offense.
