Betting on the San Francisco 49ers (2-6 SU, 3-5 ATS)
The Niners have lost two straight and six of seven, including its humbling 27-6 Week 8 loss against St. Louis while never coming close to covering the spread as a 7.5-point road underdog.Colin Kaepernick was limited to 20 for 41 passing for 162 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions. His lack of field vision is the stated reason that head coach Jim Tomsula has benched the former star.Now, the Niners will go with Blaine Gabbert after the former first round picked flamed out with Jacksonville.Gabbert played well in the preseason but is just 5-22 as a starter, including 10 consecutive losses at one point with Jacksonville.“I’ve watched Blaine get better each day and go about his business,” coach Jim Tomsula said. “I’ve watched the balls he throws, how he practices, the seriousness and the way he prepares every week since he’s been here. He’s a veteran guy.”San Francisco traded long time tight end Vernon Davis to Denver for two late-round draft picks this week.The Niners added running backs Pierre Thomas and Shaun Draughn because starter, Carlos Hyde (foot) and backups, Reggie Bush (torn MCL) and Mike Davis (broken hand) are all sidelined. The 49ers are ranked 32nd in scoring (13.6 ppg) and 23rd in points allowed (25.9 ppg).
