Saints-49ers Week 12 Odds, Lines and Spread

The Saints are 7-3 against the spread in their last ten games as a road underdog.

The 49ers return to the United States after a strong Week 11 showing on Monday Night in Mexico, where they defeated the Cardinals 38-10, earning them their third straight victory. Their Week 12 opponents, the Saints, also won in Week 11, ending their two-game losing streak. Despite their successes last week, San Francisco and New Orleans look like two very different teams at this point in the season. The 49ers (6-4) are in first place in the NFC West and appear to be a strong Super Bowl contender, while the Saints (4-7) are third in the NFC South and have four teams ahead of them for the last NFC wild-card spot.

San Francisco’s offense may get more attention thanks to superstars like Christian McCaffrey, Deebo Samuel, and George Kittle, but it’s actually their defense that is dominating their opponents. The 49ers rank inside the top five of several key statistical categories, including points per game (fourth), yards per play (second), and yards per rush (first). Their offense also ranks inside the top five in yards per play and third-down conversion percentage. The 49ers can dominate their opposition when quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo is in the zone. Case in point, his Week 11 performance where he threw for four touchdowns and San Francisco won by 28, their largest margin of victory this season.

Meanwhile, the Saints’ offense and defense have struggled throughout the year. Their offense averages 22.6 points per game (15th), while their defense allows an average of 24.3 (25th). Though quarterback Andy Dalton is coming off his best performance of the year in which he threw for 260 yards and three scores on 21-of-25 passing, the 49ers’ defense has been bringing a lot of pressure and registered three sacks in each of their last two games.
