Best Betting Tips - 49ers vs Colts
San Francisco 49ers -6 (Line Bet)
San Francisco’s offence is clicking at exactly the right time, and they now face a Colts defence ranked 31st against the pass. Brock Purdy has punished vulnerable secondaries all season, and with Indy struggling to sustain drives, this shapes as a game where the Niners can build scoreboard pressure quickly.
Colts Under 20.5 Team Total
Indianapolis haven’t scored more than 20 points in four straight games and now face a disciplined 49ers defence that thrives on limiting red-zone efficiency. With their quarterback situation unsettled, it’s hard to see where sustained scoring comes from.
Brock Purdy Over 243.5 Passing Yards
Purdy has averaged nearly 280 yards per game over the past month and shredded Tennessee for 295 yards last week. Against the league’s worst pass defence, volume and efficiency should once again work in his favour.
George Kittle Anytime Touchdown
Kittle remains a focal point in the red zone, commanding roughly 20% of Purdy’s red-zone targets. Against a Colts defence that struggles with tight ends and middle-of-field coverage, this is a high-probability scoring angle.
Key Matchup to Watch
Colts Pass Defence vs 49ers Skill Players
Indianapolis can defend the run but collapse quickly when forced to cover multiple passing threats. With Brandon Aiyuk, Deebo Samuel and Kittle all demanding attention, mismatches are inevitable, particularly inside the red zone.
