Cardinals vs. 49ers Odds & Betting Predictions - October 6, 2024

UPCOMING FREE PLAY. Let’s get sharp🔪

McBride is under in 2/3, with only two of his 14 catches thus far clearing just 10 yards (both vs LAR). And only three of his 21 targets have traveled more than 11 air yards. With a more dynamic receiving core this season, I don’t see McBride getting as many deeper shots as we saw last season. And this is a brutal matchup for him, both from a deep pass standpoint, and catch and run. The 49ers have yet to allow a TE to catch a pass for more than 9 yards this season, and have been fantastic against the position in the Fred Warner era.

🔬Mason needs to get more involved in the passing game with even half the trust Purdy had in CMC. Jordan’s targets, yards and avg yard per catch have increased each game and the cards are a team cmc took full advantage of in this offense last year. 🔬This cover 3 heavy defense in ARI invites opportunity for RB rec yards. The top 7 teams in cover 3 usage - Rams, cards, panthers, colts, Steelers, bucs, falcons - Rbs not only hit 12+ rec yards in almost every game vs these teams but many covered their prop line by a good margin. 🔬Mason talked in the off-season about how the pass game was an area he needed to work on, he bought a jugs machine to work on his hands and I think he works to continue to improve this part of his game all season.

It's awkward to lay 7.5, but I've got the 49ers favored by double digits here. I don't know how the Cardinals get a stop defensively.
