NFL Underdog Pick for Week 12
November 23rd 2012 - Special K
New Orleans Saints (+2) vs San Francisco
49ers
This is a difficult week to even find an
underdog to pick from with all the lines being so close to even. I am
counting on Jim Harbaugh and the 49ers starting rookie Colin Kaepernick at QB
this week over Alex Smith. Kaepernick's inexperience, a short week of
preparation, plus playing in one of the loudest stadiums are all positives for
the Saints. Kaepernick did impress everyone Monday Night but he was playing in
the comfort of San Francisco against a Bears team who has struggled in the past
when Cutler has missed games.
The Saints are on a 3 game winning streak and their defense has greatly improved, only
allowing 19 points per game during this current streak. Plus, the Saints are
a ridiculous 15-3 ATS in their last 18 home games. This is a great spot for taking
the Saints and the QB controversy will continue in SF.
Take the Saints and the points
