Giants at 49ers 11/12/18 - NFL Picks & Predictions

Levi’s Stadium will play host to a Monday night NFL showdown between the New York Giants and San Francisco 49ers. The Giants have gotten off to a disappointing 1-7 start and are coming off a bye. Last time out, New York continued to struggle on the offensive side of the ball during a 20-13 home loss versus Washington. Odell Beckham Jr. hauled in eight passes for 136 yards in a losing effort for the Giants.

Through eight games, New York ranks 20th in total offense and is scoring just 18.8 points on average. San Francisco counters with a middle of the pack defense that is giving up 352 yards and 26.6 points per contest. Like the Giants, the San Francisco 49ers have gotten off to a poor start and have their sights set on the future. Last Thursday, San Francisco put together their most complete effort of the season during a 34-3 home victory versus Oakland. Nick Mullens threw for 263 yards and three touchdowns in his NFL debut for the 49ers, who limited the Raiders to 245 yards of total offense.

For the season, San Francisco ranks 18th in total offense and is scoring 23.0 points per game. New York still has work to do on a defense that ranks 21st in yards allowed and gives up 25.6 points per contest.
