Bill Speros writes: “The 49ers are favored for a return to the Super Bowl this season and the No. 2 pick to win it, behind Kansas City. The Vikings drafted J.J. McCarthy from the national champion Michigan Wolverines in April. But Sam Darnold got the QB1 spot after McCarthy’s injury and handled his business against Not-So-Big Blue in Week 1. The 49ers return a defense held the Chiefs to 19 points in regulation during Super Bowl 58. The post-Super Bowl-loss hangover is the most lethal in sports. But the Niners are stacked on both sides of the ball. And they covered in 6 of 9 road games last season. This line has moved a point toward the Niners. A nice discount here.”
