new orleans saints 0 vs san francisco 49ers 13
ANALYSIS
The red hot 49ers host the Saints in an important NFC matchup.
Even though the Saints have a 4-7 record, they still have a shot at winning the NFC South if they can start winning. They started on the right track last week against the Rams. They have winnable games for most of the remainder of the season, facing the Falcons, Browns and Panthers. If they want to win this week, they will need to look for a bounce back performance from Alvin Kamara. Over the past 5 games, Kamara has been held to under 70 rushing yards.
In recent weeks, the Niners have gone from a sub-par team to that of a playoff contender. They are enjoying a 3 game win streak and have gone 3-1 since acquiring stud RB Cristian McCaffery. The Niners are coming off a blowout win against the Cardinals where they showed no mercy in a 38-10 rout. Jimmy Garoppolo had his best game of the season in that game, throwing for 4 touchdowns and 0 interceptions.
