NFL Week 3 San Francisco 49ers vs Denver Broncos prediction
These teams are both facing unexpected situations as they head into Week 3 of the NFL season. For the 49ers, it’s going back to former starting quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo after his planned successor, Trey Lance, suffered a season-ending injury last week. San Francisco rallied under Jimmy G to beat the Seahawks last week after being upset by the Bears in atrocious conditions in Week 1.
For the Broncos, the problem is they simply haven’t looked anywhere near as good as anyone expected this season. Pressure is already building on new head coach Nathaniel Hackett after his team lot to the Seahawks and again failed to impress despite beating the Texans. A win on Sunday would do both teams the power of good, so let's take a look at the odds for the game.
