Jeremy Cluff writes: “Both of these teams are coming off tough losses, but the way New York lost Cam Skattebo to injury was devastating for New York. That loss will be felt in a 49ers’ win.”

Bill Speros writes: “Week 8 shattered the Giants. Big Blue got walloped by 38-20 by the Eagles. And New York lost rookie RB sensation Cam Skattebo likely for the season due to an ankle injury. San Francisco continued its consistent run of inconsistency in losing 26-15 to the host Texans. The 49ers are just a game out of first place in the anything-goes NFC West. The Giants are on to 2026. Look for lots of CMC and George Kittle from San Francisco, whenever Mac Jones isn’t fumbling the ball or throwing a pick.”

The site’s formula predicts that the 49ers will win the NFL Week 9 game against the Giants.

Matt Johnson writes: “Without Cam Skattebo, the New York Giants offense feels lifeless. Jaxson Dart will have some opportunities from a clean pocket in Week 9 because the San Francisco 49ers front seven has been decimated by injuries. Still, San Francisco can just ride Christian McCaffrey to victory against a Giants defense that is allowing 5.5 yards per carry and nearly 150 rushing yards per game this year. New York might show a little fight, but San Francisco is well-coached and boasts the playmakers to exploit the Giants defensively.”
