Green Bay Packers vs San Francisco 49ers Prediction
I’ll go with the Packers at home, but you could make a case either way. Green Bay was lucky to escape Soldier Field with a win on Sunday, going just 1-of-5 on third downs with a paltry 23:39 in time of possession. After a series of close escapes, however, the Packers emerged victorious. That said, Green Bay has just 34 combined points in the last two outings.
As for San Francisco, they put up 277 yards (146 passing) and 21 first downs in their three-point loss to the Seahawks. The nine penalties didn’t help matters along the way. The 49ers have been below 24 points in three of the last four games themselves, so it wouldn’t be surprising to see a lower-scoring, defense-heavy finish here.
