The San Francisco 49ers get going at 1:05 p.m. PT, which means we get a morning of football. We already are one game down, with the Los Angeles Rams losing to the New York Giant in London after a 6:30 a.m. PT kickoff. We now get eight games in the 10 a.m. time slot to tide us over.
Here are the morning games. The tow most notable for 49ers fans rooting for draft position would be Browns-Bengals and Ravens-Jets. The Browns are winless thus far, while the Jets are 1-5. The Jets have a decent chance against a fairly average Ravens team, but New York is also making a quarterback switch, with Geno Smith taking over for a benched Ryan Fitzpatrick. Make of that what you want, but yes, we’re rooting for Geno Smith today.
