Green Bay Packers at San Francisco 49ers Picks & Betting Tips
Green Bay could cover at Levi’s Stadium for the second season running.
The 49ers’ offense is built around the run game but their running back room is hit with injuries.
And last weekend Aaron Rodgers looked more like his old self as Green Bay rebounded from a nightmare opening day.

San Francisco have a perfect 2-0 record but their performances have been far from perfect so far.
The 49ers beat Detroit 41-33 on opening weekend but almost blew a huge lead in the final two minutes.
They then managed just one score through three quarters in Philadelphia before finally sealing a 17-11 win with a Jimmy Garoppolo TD run and Robbie Gould field goal.
Garoppolo remains starting QB ahead of rookie Trey Lance. ‘Jimmy G’ is 39/55 for 503 yards and two touchdowns.
Elijah Mitchell leads in rushing with 146 yards and a score, but he is out and both Jamycal Hasty and Trey Sermon are questionable.
WR Deebo Samuel is a weapon that should be available though. Through two games he has 282 receiving yards and a TD.
