The Green Bay Packers are set to take on the San Francisco 49ers in a huge Week 12 NFL matchup. Of course, as most Packers fans know, the 49ers were the team that ended Green Bay’s 2023 season in the Divisional Playoffs.
Jordan Love and company are hungry for revenge. It will take a complete game performance, but the talent is there for the Packers to move to 9-3 on the season with a big win at Lambeau Field.
Green Bay received some help from the injury report. Both Brock Purdy and Nick Bosa will be out, along with a few other key pieces for San Francisco. They face off against backup quarterback Brandon Allen, which helps their cause quite a bit.
All of that being said, the Green Bay Packers have received a major prediction for this week’s game.
Green Bay Packers Receive Huge Prediction Against San Francisco 49ers
CBS Sports has revealed their prediction for how this week’s game will go. When everything is said and done, they have the Packers beating the 49ers by a final score of 27-23.
Truthfully, it would be a bad loss if Green Bay doesn’t get the job done. Losing to a team without Purdy and Bosa would be a painful loss, especially with the game being played at home.
In order to pull off the win and further improve their playoff positioning, the Packers need to come out strong.
Offensively, Love must take care of the football. He has had a turnover problem so far this year, throwing 11 interceptions so far. Love cannot afford to give the 49ers extra opportunities.
Defensively, the Green Bay Packers need to get after Allen. They have a secondary capable of forcing turnovers. If they can force some quick decisions from the backup quarterback, they will have some opportunities to capitalize on mistakes.
On the outside looking in, the Packers deserve to be favored in this game. But, the game still has to be played and Green Bay needs to take care of business.
Hopefully, we’re talking about a big-time Packers’ win over the 49ers on Monday morning.
