Sunday Night Football Bets: Packers vs. 49ers Updated Odds and Predictions

Last April, the 49ers seemed to have given up on quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo.  Head coach Kyle Shanahan was fed up with Jimmy G’s never-ending injuries.  The 2020 season marked the second in three years that Garoppolo missed significant time.  As a result, the 49ers took Trey Lance in the 2021 NFL Draft.  Lance has the mobility that Garoppolo lacks.  But Jimmy G has the Super Bowl best experience of winning an NFC title.  Lance’s arrival has put a spark into Garoppolo.  San Francisco and Jimmy G are off to a promising start.
