The Niners entered this season with futures odds of +1,600 but have surged up the board after a 9-4 start. They were at +900 entering Week 14, and after a dominant victory against the Buccaneers have moved to +800.
With a dominant defense and a rookie quarterback getting the job done, we break down the 49ers’ Super Bowl 57 futures heading into Week 15.

In a game that has the makings of one of the most exciting ones we could see all season, the Dallas Cowboys are in Miami to take on the Dolphins in a game that many are calling the “Battle of the Frauds.” Fair or not, each team has made a habit of destroying inferior competition this season while they haven’t been at their best against upper-tier opponents.

Let’s dig into what we’ve seen from the teams this season as well as some strengths vs. weaknesses and I’ll provide you with my free NFL picks for Cowboys vs. Dolphins on December 24.

PSG dominate French football and, as a result, Ligue 1 is uncompetitive. At least, that’s the narrative driven by social media.

Its weakest teams are its strongest asset, as we are seeing again this season.
There is an obvious resource gap between the top and bottom clubs – PSG’s budget of €500m for this season dwarfs the €20m newly promoted Clermont can spend – yet Ligue 1’s supposed lack of competition can be partly explained by competitiveness further down the division.

A small note, by the way, of good thoughts and hopes to Jon Corzine, the governor of New Jersey (and pride of Taylorville, Ill.), who is in critical condition after a car crash last night.

We were very impressed by him, though we think he was secretly rooting for Illinois, his alma mater. Anyway, we wish him well. …
That ugly-ass Hawks-Celtics game was only made less painful to watch by an unfortunate pratfall from Atlanta’s mascot, who will not be fertilizing eggs anytime soon. Keep an eye on Harry’s tightrope routine at the bottom of the screen: And here’s your alternate angle.
