After losing their first three games of the season, the Colts have been more competitive the past three weeks. They have totaled two wins and an overtime loss over this span, though the wins have come against the Miami Dolphins and Houston Texans, while the overtime loss needed a massive collapse on their end to even go to extra time. Carson Wentz is getting healthier while the rest of the team is not. T.Y. Hilton is out once again, while the defense has also suffered some key injuries that will be tough to overcome.
The 49ers are fresh off their bye week, where they have been great in recent seasons, going 3-0 against the spread following a bye since 2019. Jimmy Garoppolo is back at quarterback, while George Kittle is still out. However, the backfield is getting healthier, which should take some pressure off of the passing game. Defensively, they live and die by their pass rush, which hasn’t been as elite as seasons past. Fred Warner is also a stud in the middle, but he cannot make every play, which is exactly what is needed for this defense to be considered scary.
