Chiefs vs. 49ers Predictions For NFL Week 7, Sunday 10/20

If the Chiefs aren’t in prime time, or their bye like they were last week, they always seem to find a way to be a part of the most polarizing game of the week. Of course, trying to become the first team in NFL history to win three straight Super Bowls certainly helps with that.

Regardless, we expect a back-and-forth game just like we saw in last year’s Super Bowl. So, seeing a tight point spread of just a point or two is far from surprising. While we’re going to provide the full analysis for the best bet from our Chiefs vs. 49ers predictions, we indeed have multiple angles that we like.

With the game in San Francisco, we see the ‘9ers grabbing the win, but as many fans know, betting against Kansas City is always a sweat. That’s why our best bet focuses on a different market, so let’s check out each team. 
 

 

 

Kansas City Chiefs: Staying Strong Off A Bye

As if the Chiefs weren’t already scary enough to bet against, that is particularly true coming off a bye week. Specifically, that has been the case with head coach Andy Reid leading the squad. Even dating back to his days in Philly, he has been excellent getting his teams prepared with the extra week.

You know that is especially true knowing that they have this Super Bowl rematch on the horizon. Heading into this matchup, Reid is a remarkable 21-4 coming off a bye week. Let’s also not forget how scary QB Patrick Mahomes is as an underdog; he’s an incredible 11-1-1 against the spread in such games!
 

 

 

San Francisco 49ers: Grabbing The NFC West

There’s no denying that the 49ers have left plenty to be desired so far this season, and of course, injuries have certainly played a part in that. Even still, they haven’t looked like the NFC favorites they were labeled heading into the season.

Despite their up-and-down year to this point, their win over the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday Night Football puts them in prime position to take control of the NFC West this week. They’re just 3-3, so they’re being granted an opportunity that generally wouldn’t be there. Speaking of TNF, that also means that they’ll have just had a mini bye week as well.

We mentioned a tight point spread already, and you can see the latest Chiefs vs. 49ers odds at FanDuel Sportsbook below:

 

 

Chiefs vs. 49ers Point Spread: Under 47.5 Points (-110 at FanDuel Sportsbook)

Again, we wouldn’t be opposed to you adding San Francisco’s side, perhaps even just the money line, as part of your Chiefs vs. 49ers picks. However, we’re going to be focusing our Chiefs vs. 49ers predictions on the under.

It may not always be the most fun rooting against points, but it’s one of the biggest discrepancies we have this week in terms of our projections and the actual line. We have the total set at just 44 points, so we’re more than comfortable going under this total.

While Mahomes always takes the headlines for the Chiefs given his incredible talent, it’s been their defense led by Chris Jones that has been the stronger unit for KC, especially this season. We’ve already heard Mahomes openly state that the offense isn’t operating on all cylinders, which is why we’ve seen the defense be the reason for the wins recently.

In their past two games, the Chiefs have allowed just 13 and 10 points. As for the 49ers, they’ve been predicated on defense for a few years now, and they rely on it even more with key injuries on the offensive side, most recently RB Jordan Mason. They haven’t put up the numbers expected thus far, but LB Fred Warner knows how to lead this squad against a KC offense that is also missing key weapons like WR Rashee Rice.

We may still get to enjoy another incredibly exciting overtime game, but one that stays under 47.5 points (-110 at FanDuel Sportsbook), which is the best bet from our Chiefs vs. 49ers predictions.
