San Francisco is enjoying a 3-0 SUATS run, as it hits the road for a second consecutive week after earning a 31-17 victory over the St. Louis Rams on ESPN’s Monday Night Football, while going OVER the betting total for the first time in four affairs.  The 49ers gained a season-high 432 yards in that NFC West matchup, which can’t be ignored when making your pro football picks, as quarterback Colin Kaepernick is one of the biggest offensive weapons in the league.  San Francisco is 3-4 SU and 4-3 ATS as underdogs the last two-plus seasons.

The 49ers continue to do a great job of protecting the football and causing opponents to make mistakes, which is important to consider when looking over the pro football odds page, as they enter this high-profile affair with a plus-five turnover margin.  San Francisco will try to pound running back Frank Gore throughout this game, but the team is averaging just 3.6 yards per carry on the road compared to a 4.7 figure when playing in the Bay Area.

Denver has won and covered the number in its last two games since dropping a 26-20 overtime decision to the Seattle Seahawks on Sept. 21, while it has won the statistical battle by a combined 508 yards over that span.  The Broncos are 18th in the league with a plus-one turnover margin, while these two storied franchises have split 12 all-time regular season meetings.  Denver is 22-3 SU and 18-6 ATS as favorites of 3.5 to 9.5 points the last two-plus seasons, with the OVER going 15-10 in that situation.

The Broncos are being led by quarterback Peyton Manning once again, as many expect him to match Brett Favre’s league record for touchdowns in a career, as he’s just two behind in that statistical category.  Denver has a major weapon for the future Hall of Fame signal-caller to target, with tight end Julius Thomas catching nine of his 15 touchdown passes thus far in 2014.

Sports bettors will likely play the total, as the OVER is 10-2 in the Broncos’ last 12 home games versus a team with a winning road record.
