Your open thread for Sunday Night Football
Get yourself a plate of Thanksgiving leftovers and settle in as the Buffalo Bills hosting the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday Night Football.
The 5-6 49ers have their work cut out for them as they try to get back to .500 on the season and maybe claw their way back into playoff contention. Just about everything has gone wrong for the 49ers this year, but fortunately the NFC West is having a down year as a whole.
The Bills (9-2), meanwhile, are running away with the AFC West and are widely seen as one of the favorites to represent the AFC in the Super Bowl. Buffalo is riding a six-game winning streak and are 6.5-point favorites this week, per FanDuel sportsbook.
Will Buffalo extend their winning streak? Or will the 49ers execute the upset and start a run toward the postseason?
Chris’ pick: I’m sure the NFL schedule makers had dreams of a Super Bowl preview dancing through their heads when they scheduled this game.
But the 49ers have been savaged by injury this year and simply aren’t the team they’ve been over the previous couple years. I still expect them to put up a good fight and make this an interesting game, particularly with Brock Purdy is back as expected. However, the Bills just have too much on offense and defense — it also helps that they’re playing in Buffalo and winter has truly set in. The high will only be 34 degrees and there’s an 81 percent chance of precipitation tonight.
I’m going with the Bills at home.
