San Francisco 49ers vs. Arizona Cardinals Prediction
I’m on the 49ers here. Arizona admittedly has played in some close games this season, especially at home, but the thing here is that San Francisco’s just the better team and it feels like Arizona is starting to be resigned to their fate that there won’t be playoff football in the desert this season. San Francisco is inconsistent, but the Cardinals have been consistently frustrating to back and I think the 49ers get it done. Give me the 49ers.
