San Francisco enters unbeaten at 3-0 with strong offensive balance, posting 263.0 passing yards and 136.3 rushing yards per game while allowing just 16.7 points per game. Denver is 2-1 and has flashed some stability, but its offense sits at 20.0 points per game and 5.0 yards per play, and its defense has been more vulnerable, allowing 23.3 points per game and 5.6 yards per play. The 49ers’ edge in explosiveness and overall production gives them the better recent form heading into this meeting.
San Francisco’s offense has been far more efficient than Denver’s, and its defense has been tighter as well, so the home team is the more likely winner. The Broncos can keep this competitive if they limit mistakes, but the 49ers’ scoring rate and yardage profile point to a controlled home win. Final score prediction: San Francisco 49ers 27, Denver Broncos 23.
