2. NFL Playoffs: Dallas at San Francisco
POINT TOTAL 46
ATS PICK Over
Yeah, the Dallas defense is good. It’s 12th in the NFL overall and fifth in scoring D.
Yeah, the San Francisco defense is good. It’s partly because it fattened up the stats on a slew of teams watching on their couches, but yeah, it’s No. 1 in both scoring and total defense.
And that defense just got hit by Geno Smith and DK Metcalf for 23 points.
It’s possible to score on this bunch. It had a stretch of eight games when it allowed 20 points or fewer, but again, it’s not like it was going against Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen during the run.
Dallas stuffed the Minnesota offense in a 40-3 win, and it only allowed more than 20 points seven times.
But come on. You’re not closing out your weekend of NFL Playoff games by thinking this will be 23-20.
San Francisco has scored 33 or more in six of its last seven games and seven of its last eight. Dallas isn’t getting held under 20.
You’re fine with the over on 46.
Speaking of “you’re not going under on this” …
