San Francisco 49ers vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers Prediction
I’m on the 49ers here. I think the Bucs just profile better as an underdog, as they’ve had a lot of their success in the underdog role this season. The 49ers just keep finding ways to deliver this season with Mac Jones under center which are words I never thought I’d say, and the 49ers are extra rested here as well. I think the 49ers get it done. Give me San Francisco.
