Why? Doesn't he never fumble?

Because we are a better team offensively. If this game was played in perfect weather conditions, we have a better QB who has better accuracy and precision. A quarterback who executes his offensive playbook better than the opponent's quarterback. Our running game is LEAGUES better than the opponent's, as is our passing game.
A rainy game, NO DOUBT, will affect all 3 facets of the game. It's common sense that a slippery ball and a slippery field will affect throwing ability, catching ability, and running ability. We saw this in last year's playoffs against Seattle, when Brock struggled early when it was still wet, but as the conditions improved, we blew them out.
Now, one will argue that the weather will affect both teams. And it will. But it's obvious that the team with the upper hand on offense may be more 'beatable' if they are unable to execute their scheme to perfection. GB knows if will take miracle to win. Watch how many prayers Jordan Love throws up today. Our BFF ref Kemp, who throws more flags than any other official in the league, will have a field day throwing PI flags for every short pass Love throws into oblivion.
meanwhile, the precision based Shanahan offense, which relies less of prayer shots and lucky throws, will suffer because there's a chance Brock's accuracy is off because of a slippery ball. Or one of your receivers loses the ball on a fumble. Or CMC cant get his footing for a typical monstrous run.
WE, FOLKS, ARE SCREWED !
I don't think we are screwed, but it will definitely make things closer. Our offense has not looked good in the rain. We all saw the Cleveland game earlier this year.

I like this score. Can't let them score early, that's what has been benefiting them. Give them 2/3rd and longs. Making him have to process in the pocket.
if we can get an early lead it's over imo

Yeah agree with you there. Keep Ronnie away from everything. Bad energy, bad vibes, and bad everything with that guy. Feels like a negative play when he's involved.

The aviation forecast at SJC for the game, which is often less dramatic than news outlets, calls for light rain showers and mist throughout, winds SE at 12 until 7p, and then SE at 14 gusting to 29, overcast 3k going to 2k ft, and visibility 6 decreasing to 5 miles.
