San Francisco Made The Playoffs Due To Second-Half Surge

At 2-4 SU and 1-5 ATS with a slew of injuries on defense and to the running back corps, the 49ers weren’t looking much like a playoff team. But San Francisco managed to successfully turn its season around with an 8-3 SU and ATS run over its last 11 games. That run was capped off by a 27-24 overtime win over the Rams last Sunday that allowed the 49ers to secure this playoff spot.

The win over Los Angeles was an impressive one that saw the 49ers erase an early 17-0 hole en route to victory. Jimmy Garoppolo finished the day with 316 passing yards, one passing touchdown and two interceptions while completing 23 of his 32 pass attempts. For whatever plan the 49ers had when they traded up to draft Trey Lance this offseason, this is very much Garoppolo’s team heading into the postseason.

Red-Hot Cowboys Enter Postseason With Offense Clicking

The Cowboys wrapped up a 5-1 SU and ATS run to end the regular season in emphatic fashion on Sunday, crushing the Philadelphia Eagles 51-26 as 6-point favorites. Dak Prescott went 21-for-27 with 295 passing yards and five passing touchdowns in the win while Ezekiel Elliott rushed for 87 of the team’s 171 rushing yards. This marked the second time in Dallas’ last three games that the team has scored over 50 points.

Despite their dominant 12-5 SU and 13-4 ATS campaign, the Cowboys still aren’t the clear choice among many bettors’ and fans’ 49ers vs Cowboys predictions. This may be due to the fact that many of the team’s wins this year have come against weak opponents. Prescott and the Cowboys will have the chance to prove they are the real deal with a win and cover this Sunday.

49ers vs Cowboys Pick & Insights

49ers: Keys To Cover

The Cowboys have a middle-of-the-pack rushing defense, ranking 16th in the NFL in rushing yards allowed at 112.8 per game. San Francisco will be a strong 49ers vs Cowboys pick if it can establish the run early and wear down this Cowboys defense.

Cowboys: Keys To Cover

A successful 49ers vs Cowboys prediction in Dallas’ favor will rely heavily on a big game from Dak Prescott. The 49ers defense is rock-solid against both the run and the pass, but Prescott has looked unstoppable at times this season and will need a game like that to lead the Cowboys to a win and cover.
