Before Lance got the starting quarterback job, Jimmy Garoppolo had led San Francisco to a Super Bowl appearance in 2020 and a divisional playoff appearance last season. Jimmy G. knows what he’s doing.

When Garoppolo entered the game against Seattle last Sunday, the 49ers had yet to blow open the game. San Francisco pulled away to a 27-7 win because Garoppolo ran the offense to perfection.

Why bet on Denver versus San Francisco?

Denver didn’t play a great game in NFL Week 2. But the Broncos showed they have what it takes to beat a hard-trying club. The Broncos entered their contest versus Houston a -9 favorite.

The home team beat the Texans 16-9. The game was as workmanlike as it gets. Russell Wilson threw for only 219 yards. But the Broncos rushed for an excellent 149. Denver has what it takes to beat the 49ers.

San Francisco 49ers at Denver Broncos Final Betting Prediction

So far, things aren’t going as planned in Denver. Russell Wilson has not played his best. Versus the Texans, Russ struggled, completing just 14-of-31. 

Wilson threw a pick. Denver’s offense should get it going. But it hasn’t yet, and that’s concerning if you’re a Broncos fan.

If you like the 49ers in this, you should feel comfortable laying the -1.5 on the road dog. Jimmy G. isn’t a drop off from Lance. In fact, Garoppolo may be better suited to lead the Niners to playoffs this season because he’s got more experience than Trey. 

San Francisco’s defense is playing lights out. The 49ers rank first in yards allowed and passing yards allowed. The Niners D rank second in rushing yards allowed and third in points per game at 13. SF wins and covers.
