San Francisco 49ers vs. Green Bay Packers NFL Same Game Parlay:
I’m not exactly sure what to make of the 49ers to this point. While the faces remain the same, the records—both straight up and against the spread—simply don’t compare to what the reigning NFC champs brought to the table a season ago. It can only be chalked up to injuries. Void of Christian McCaffrey in the backfield a bulk of the year, San Francisco’s rushing attack, while still cut from an upper echelon cloth, just doesn’t pack the punch it once did. While Jauan Jennings has been a revelation for Brock Purdy and the passing game, Deebo Samuel in and out of the lineup paired with the season-ending injury sustained by Brandon Aiyuk finds the unit a cut below last season’s outputs. George Kittle has been a revelation, when healthy, and his absence last week allowed for the Seahawks to hold the offense to 277 total yards. He’s expected back this week in a plus matchup against a Green Bay defense giving up the 12th most yards to the position. The Packers have been middle of the road against both the pass and run, so the blue print will be there for San Francisco to put some points on the board.
Since rattling off wins and NFL spread covers in four of their first six games, Green Bay has been a detriment to bankrolls over the last month with it yet to cover a spread regardless of hitting the win column on three of four tries. Last week’s effort in Chicago was hardly one to write home about with it getting outgained 391-366, out-first downed 23-19, and moving the chains on only 1 of 5 third down tries. Huge chunk plays downfield due to blown coverages and 3 of 5 showing in the red zone ultimately allowed it to keep pace with Caleb Williams and Co. Matt LaFleur’s squad would’ve gone down in defeat had the Bears not had such a bonehead roaming their sideline. If the Packers are to hold serve and avoid falling to 3-3 in front of the hometown faithful, a much crisper effort will be needed by Jordan Love and his mates to avenge last year’s gut-wrenching playoff defeat.
In the grand scheme of things, this is one the 49ers really need to put in the win column if it’s to defend its division title and/or compete for a playoff bid as a wild card. The remaining schedule reads as such: @Bills, Bears, Rams, @Dolphins, Lions, and @Cardinals. That being said, the Packers aren’t going to just roll over and let San Francisco have their way with them. Quite the contrary with Green Bay by no means having a walk in the park to close the year themselves with games lined up against the Dolphins, @Lions, @Seahawks, Saints, @Vikings, and Bears. While the Packers are also dealing with some injury issues of their own with Josh Jacobs battling a quad injury and Jaire Alexander MIA the last few games due to a knee injury, San Fran is dealing with a laundry list of walking wounded with Purdy’s shoulder injury and Nick Bosa’s hip/oblique issues potential grave concerns.
