49ers host Lions in NFC Championship Game: who wins?
Lions quarterback Jared Goff, who started his career with the Los Angeles Rams (2016-20), is 34-35-2 ATS outdoors.
FOX Sports’ Skip Bayless, host of “The Skip Bayless Show,” said Detroit will have trouble at San Francisco. The weather is expected to be around 70 degrees.
Bayless predicts a 35-14 win for the home team.
“I think they’re about to get exposed,” Bayless said. “I think they’ve had a magical year, but it’s going to make magic that they don’t have up against the No. 1 offense in an NFC Championship Game out there on that turf where the weather is supposed to be beautiful.
“So there’s not going to be any wet ball throwing problems for Brock Purdy.”
Which matchup are you…
