49ers Spotlight

The San Francisco 49ers pulled off a nice upset last week in the Wildcard round, taking out the Dallas Cowboys despite being 3.5-point underdogs. On the road, the 49er’s offense ranks 14th in points per game, 8th in pass yards, 9th in rush yards, and 2nd in yards per play. Defensively on the road, the 49ers rank 6th in points allowed, 7th in pass yards allowed, 12th in rush yards allowed, and 6th in yards per play.

Packers Spotlight

The Green Bay Packers had all last week to prep for this meeting considering they got the first-round bye. At home, the Packer’s offense ranks 8th in points per game, 7th in pass yards, 19th in rush yards, and 10th in yards per play. Defensively at home, the Packers rank 1st in points allowed, 10th in pass yards allowed, 14th in rush yards allowed, and 14th in yards per play.

Final Say

Both teams come into this one hot and profitable where the Packers are 12-4 ATS in their last 16 games, while the 49ers are 5-1 SU and ATS in their last six games. Green Bay has been hot at home winning eight-straight, while San Francisco is 8-3 SU in their last 11 road games. The Packers have also owned this series at home winning nine of their last 11 meeting with the 49ers. The problem for the Packers is they were a hot team that could have cooled down after getting the first-round bye, while the 49ers just picked up more momentum last week after taking down the Cowboys. Head Coach Kyle Shanahan has also been on point in offensive play calling lately, while they have had one of the better rushing attacks averaging 159.6 rushing yards per game in their last three games. Having a strong rushing attack is nice to have in the playoffs because it extends drives, kills clock, and gives your defense time to rest, which helps a defense that has already been on fire. Should be a competitive matchup, but just feels like too many points to be giving a team that is as hot as the 49ers have been. Grab the free 6-points and back the 49ers on the road.

Pick: San Francisco 49ers +6
