\"Cardinals<\/a>
The San Francisco 49ers will be leaning heavily on running back Frank Gore Sunday<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

New York has won six of seven entering Sunday\u2019s contest and come off a 24-20 win over the New England Patriots as nine-point road underdogs.\u00a0 The Giants have been led by quarterback Eli Manning for most of the season, as he\u2019s registered a 121.7 passer rating in the fourth quarter, which leads all NFL signal-callers.\u00a0 The team\u2019s passing game ranks sixth in the league in averaging 282.9 yards per game, but the rushing game has been a miss, gaining just 88.8 yards a contest.\u00a0 New York is 2-7 ATS in November the last two-plus seasons, while the \u2018over\u2019 is 5-4 in those contests.<\/p>\n

The Giants can get after opposing quarterbacks with the best of them, but must control San Francisco\u2019s rushing attack, giving up 127.1 yards per game on the ground.\u00a0 New York has lost the battle on the ground in five of the last six games.\u00a0 Overall, the squad has to be happy with its 6-2 record, sitting atop the NFC East division.\u00a0 \u201cI think confidence is always there,\u201d commented Giants quarterback Eli Manning.\u00a0 \u201cI think you have to have confidence in yourself and your team.\u201d<\/p>\n

San Francisco comes in winners of six straight games and picked up a 19-11 win as four-point road favorites last week in Washington.\u00a0 The 49ers have won the statistical battle in the last four contests after getting out-gained in the first four games of the 2011 campaign.\u00a0 Perhaps the team might be looking ahead at closing out the division, as it will face Seattle and Arizona in the two weeks following this NFC showdown.\u00a0 San Francisco is 7-0-1 ATS on the year and the \u2018under\u2019 is 21-18 in the last two-plus seasons.<\/p>\n

The 49ers rushing defense is limiting opponents to just 70.8 yards per game, which has been a recipe for success when being able to run the football offensively.\u00a0 San Francisco is one of the league leader\u2019s in gaining 137.6 yards per game on the ground, led by veteran running back Frank Gore, who is just 148 yards away from the franchise record for career rushing yards.\u00a0 First-year head coach Jim Harbaugh has certainly changed the culture in the locker room, helping quarterback Alex Smith along the way.\u00a0 The former No. 1 pick comes in with a 106.7 passer rating in the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n

Bettors will likely back the 49ers due to their 5-0 ATS record as a favorite of 3.5 to 10 points, while the Giants are 17-36-2 ATS in November.<\/p>\n
