Green Bay @ San Francisco
Team Totals: Packers 27.5, 49ers 22.5
Memorably blown out by San Francisco in both of last season’s meetings (Week 12 and playoffs), the Packers are out for revenge with the 49ers right where Green Bay wants them. Missing CB Richard Sherman (calf), DLs Nick Bosa (ACL), Dee Ford (back), and Solomon Thomas (ACL), and MLB Kwon Alexander (trade) on defense, plus QB Jimmy Garoppolo (ankle), RBs Raheem Mostert (ankle), Jeff Wilson (ankle), and Tevin Coleman (knee), TE George Kittle (foot), and WR Deebo Samuel (hamstring) on offense, Kyle Shanahan’s team is overwhelmingly shorthanded. The Packers’ running back depletion foreshadows a pass-first game plan featuring Aaron Rodgers, who’s notched top-eight fantasy finishes in 5-of-7 starts. Ranked 23rd in Sack Rate (5.1%) and 21st in QB Hit Rate (13.9%), the 49ers set the table for Rodgers to experience clean pockets, in which he’s banked an otherworldly 19:2 TD-to-INT ratio and the NFL’s third-highest QB rating (126.8). … With Jamaal Williams and A.J. Dillon (Covid) ruled out and Aaron Jones (calf) on the doubtful side of questionable, Green Bay’s backfield looks reduced to 2019 sixth-round pick Dexter Williams and fourth-team journeyman Tyler Ervin, who has played 104-of-105 offensive snaps at wide receiver this year.
