5 prime time games this season; 2 Sunday Night Football games, 2 Monday Night Football games and 1 dreaded (if you don't have NFL Network) Thursday Night Football game, ensure that the spotlight will remain on Kaepernick and his crew all season long.

The last season at Candlestick Park is going to be an intense one. Week 1 will be just like last season against Green Bay, except this time, we will be playing at The Stick. I predict an obvious sold out crowd full of The Faithful (I'm going to try and get there too) and a great game that has the 9ers coming out on top yet again. The 9ers have shown time and time again they are not intimidated by the Packers and I see no reason why we should lose the season opener. It may only be 5 months away but it feels like a lifetime.

A few more games that stick out to me are Week 2 at Seattle, Week 4 at St. Louis, Week 12 at Washington, and Week 16 against Atlanta.

Playing Seattle at home is difficult for any team, as the 9ers experienced last season. They are such a solid team and the noise in that stadium makes it hard for the opposing team to even hear each other. No doubt this will be an exciting game.

Week 4 against the Rams will be the first time the teams have met since the loss and tie last season  and I suspect the 9ers will want to close the door and try to even up the score. The games last season should not have been so close and without Steven Jackson, will the Rams even be that big of a threat? I don't think so.

The 9ers will face Washington for the first time pitting similar offenses and athletic quarterbacks against each other. Robert Griffin III will hopefully be fully healed and ready for battle because the 49ers sure as hell will be.

The match-up against the Falcons will certainly be a heated one as it is the first time the teams have met since the awesomely intense NFC Championship game in Atlanta last season where the 9ers came back from a 17-0 deficit and went on to win the game and advance to the Superbowl.

There is no doubting that the Superbowl loss in February will be fueling the 49ers all season long until they reach their goal. The Quest for Six continues on and The Faithful cannot wait.

Go 9ers!
