Play: San Francisco +1 -110
Time: 1:05 p.m. ET
Reasoning: The Niners have that look about them. Seven straight wins. In November against Carolina, QB Colin Kaepernick had his worst game ever and San
Francisco only lost 10-9. The 49ers also were missing WR Michael Crabtree in that contest. Last week at Green Bay he had eight catches
for 125 yards. Tight end Vernon Davis suffered a concussion midway through that meeting, too, and he's healthy now. Defensively the 49ers have yet to allow a 100-yard rusher this season. On top of this I think Carolina is overrated. Four of the Panthers' 12 wins required game-winning drives. And WR Steve Smith has a sprained knee and did not look good at Thursday's practice.
Play: Denver -8 -110
Time: 4:40 p.m. ET
Reasoning: Peyton Manning is no Andy Dalton. He's also getting We Welker back. I expect him to carve up a soft San Diego secondary that was 29th in the NFL against the pass. The Broncos put up the first 600-plus point season in league history. They were wildly consistent too, scoring fewer than 30 points in just three games. Denver is well-rested and healthy. Chargers RB Ryan Matthews (ankle) missed practice this week and is questionable.
Record: 5-0-1
