took the long trip west to play the 49ers in Santa Clara on Sunday Night Football. Both teams have managed only two wins to start the season, putting both in an early hole in their respective divisions. It’s no surprise to see San Francisco favored at home but it’s also reasonable to see this is one of the top upset candidates of the weekend.
The weather forecast includes rain and warnings for gale-force winds that will remain active through the game. These are game conditions that likely favor the team with the advantage in the trenches and on the ground.
