Key Takeaway: Brock Purdy Is Still a Third-String Seventh-Round Rookie
Last week, Purdy looked great in his first NFL start, completing 76.2% of his passes for a 10.7 AY/A. Sure, he passed for just 185 yards on 21 attempts, but that’s all the 49ers needed him to do in a dominant 35-7 victory over the Buccaneers.
As a result, from last week to this week, I’ve bumped up the 49ers +2.5 points in my power ratings. In the Massey-Peabody Power Rankings, they’ve received a similar boost from +0.81 to +2.72.
Even so, they are still just +1.82 points better than the Seahawks on a neutral field in Massey-Peabody.
But here’s the thing: 49ers HC Mike Shanahan has historically underperformed as a favorite, this game is being played in the hostile environment of Lumen Field, Seahawks QB Geno Smith has done well in the past as an underdog (especially at home) — and Purdy (oblique, rib) is still just a third-string seventh-round rookie making his second NFL start while limited with an injury on a short week against a divisional opponent who is pushing to make the playoffs and coming off an embarrassing home loss.
Despite what we saw out of Purdy last week, it’s worth remembering that in his first game with a pass attempt (Week 7 vs. Chiefs) he had a 2.3 AY/A in mop-up duty, and in his first game with extended action (Week 13 vs. Dolphins) he had a 5.5 AY/A.
We have seen other quarterbacks with comparable talent levels perform acceptably in the Shanahan offense with the 49ers.
C.J. Beathard (2017-20): 58.6% completion rate | 6.5 AY/A
Nick Mullens (2018-20): 64.5% completion rate | 7.0 AY/A
But these guys are not in the same caliber of QB Jimmy Garoppolo (67.6% completion rate, 8.2 AY/A with Shanahan) — and neither is Purdy.
Given the circumstances, -3.5 points is just too much for a third-string seventh-round rookie quarterback to get on the road — even with Shanahan, and even if he’s better than the typical third-string late-round rookie quarterback.
Best Line: Seahawks +3.5 (-115, PointsBet)
First Recommended: Seahawks +1.5 (-110)
Personal Projection: Seahawks +2.5

Key Takeaway: Tyler Huntley Is Not Lamar Jackson
I assume that QB Tyler Huntley (concussion) will be able to start this Saturday. He did practice fully on Wednesday, which is a strongly positive sign. But he’s still in the league’s protocol — and part of the protocol (Phase Five) calls for guys to return to practice, which may be a full session that involves contact.
But that doesn’t mean he will be able to practice fully without once again experiencing concussion-like symptoms. And a full practice doesn’t mean that he automatically exits the protocol. At least a couple times this year we’ve seen a player practice fully and then still fail to clear the protocol within a week.
It’s likelier than not that Huntley starts this game, but with one less day than usual to recover he’s not guaranteed to play. There’s a small chance third-string rookie QB Anthony Brown draws the start.
And even if Huntley plays, he’s a significant downgrade from starter Lamar Jackson. At NFElo, Jackson is worth +1.1 points to the spread this year, whereas Huntley is worth -3.9 points.
I more conservatively have the dropoff from Jackson to Huntley at -4.5 points (and I’m thinking about moving it to -4) — but either way the difference is large.
Although they have similar playing styles, Jackson is an MVP-caliber quarterback with a 7.6 AY/A and 7.4% sack rate, whereas Huntley is a limited backup with a 5.1 AY/A and 8.1% sack rate.
Browns QB Deshaun Watson (5.3 AY/A) has underwhelmed in his return to action. But without Jackson, I have the Ravens as 2.5 points worst then the Browns on a neutral field (Massey-Peabody has it at 2.6) — and this game is being played in Cleveland.
The downgrade from Jackson to Huntley is the difference in this game.
Best Line: Browns -2.5 (-110, PointsBet)
First Recommended: Browns -2.5 (-115)
Personal Projection: Browns -4

Key Takeaway: Buy Low on the Steelers, Sell High on the Panthers
The Panthers are coming off a great 30-24 road underdog win against the Seahawks — but 2021 starter-turned-2022 backup-turned-starter Sam Darnold had a 5.8 AY/A in that game on just 24 pass attempts, so it’s not as if he’s the reason they won.
And his career mark is also 5.8 AY/A. He’s still the same-ol’ Sam.
Darnold should almost never be a favorite, and the Panthers are now favorites. As such, they’re 0-3 ATS this year.
Yeah, they’re 6-2 ATS under interim HC Steve Wilks, but after last week I believe the market has now caught up to the Panthers, who have never been favored under Wilks. In his only two games as a favorite (with the 2018 Cardinals), Wilks was 0-2 ATS and failed to cover the spread by a margin of -13.25 points.
This is a prime spot to sell high on the Panthers — and also to buy low on the Steelers, who last week suffered a tough 16-14 loss as home favorites against the Ravens.
Rookie QB Kenny Pickett (concussion) seems likely to miss this week for the Steelers, but backup QB Mitchell Trubisky is a veteran, and he’s better than Darnold despite his faults.
The Steelers have the edge at quarterback and coach, and the Panthers have a mediocre home-field advantage.
If you give me +3 with the Steelers against a bad team, I’ll take it.

Key Takeaway: Aaron Rodgers Is a Home Favorite Off a Bye
I jumped on this game to early (-9 in the lookahead market), but even after adjusting the Rams up +1.25 points after their surprising come-from-behind 17-16 win over the Raiders last week I still have this game projected at Packers -9.
So given that this line is -6.5 and -7 in the market, I still see value on the Packers.
The analysis here is fairly straightforward: The Packers aren’t nearly as bad as the Rams.
Say whatever you want about Rodgers, but he’s No. 2 in the league with nine multi-touchdown passing games.
And he has a good matchup: The Rams are No. 28 in defensive dropback EPA (0.126).
And Rodgers is a favorite, at home and coming off the bye: He historically has crushed in each of those situations — and in the total eclipse spot where all three of those edges have aligned in the regular season he’s an undefeated 4-0-1 ATS.
In a cold weather game (forecast of five degrees Fahrenheit) against a warm weather dome team, I’m fine with laying -7 on Rodgers at home with eight extra days to rest and prepare.
Best Line: Packers -6.5 (-115, FanDuel)
First Recommended: Packers -9 (-110), ouch
Personal Projection: Packers -9
Freedman’s 5 ATS Picks for Season-Long Contests
Here are the five spread bets that (right now) I’m leaning toward in the DraftKings picks contest.
Note: The lines for this contest can vary from those highlighted above.
Seahawks +3.5 vs. 49ers
Chargers -2.5 vs. Titans
Broncos -2.5 vs. Cardinals
Raiders +0.5 vs. Patriots
Packers -6.5 vs. Rams
But I expect these picks to change by Sunday based on line movement.
I’ll provide a tweet with my updated contest picks on Sunday before kickoff, and then I’ll post that tweet here.
