Final NFL Betting Prediction for 49ers at Packers

Green Bay won’t shut down Beathard and the 49ers from moving the football. Although based on stats, the Packers could, they had trouble keeping a team like Detroit from rushing for 94 yards. The Lions aren’t a great ground game squad, meaning if Green Bay couldn’t stop Detroit from running with the football, they won’t stop the 4th best rushing team in the NFL. If Beathard doesn’t make mistakes, San Francisco could upset Green Bay on the moneyline. Taking the points makes a world of sense. NFL Football Week 6 Pick: 49ers +9.5
