Niners - Saints Tomorrow: My Prognosis
Here, FWIW, is my take on tomorrow's playoff game between my San Francisco 49ers and the smokin' hot New Orleans Saints.
The present line has the Saints favored by an astonishingly small 3.5 point margin. The over-under is also low at 47.5.
I'm predicting the Niners will lose, but by between 6 and 10 points, making the game closer than expected.
If -- big If -- the Niners are ahead by 10+ at the half, they could pull out a win. Otherwise, I don't see how the Niners stop the potent Saints' offense and Drew Brees in a second half they've dominated all year.
