- San Francisco has dropped seven of its last eight games ATS at home.
- The past three meetings between Cincy and San Fran have all gone Over.
WOL Playcall: With Trent Dilfer and Alex Smith unavailable, the job of 49er signal caller falls on the shoulders of inexperienced Shaun Hill.
The Niners have the worst offense in the entire league in both yards a game and points for so Hill could be in for a long night. Take the Bengals to win by more than 8.
