NFL FREE PICK: Take San Francisco. The 49ers will be focused coming off their loss to the Vikings last Sunday and the Jets were extremely fortunate to escape Miami with a victory. The Niners should hold Mark Sanchez in check and without Darrelle Revis, Rex Ryan’s defense will surely struggle. San Francisco isn’t explosive but New York will have issues scoring and the Niners should eventually pull away in the second half. According to latest NFL trends, the 49ers are 16-5-1 against the spread in their last 22 games overall and 6-2 ATS in their last eight games versus a team with a winning record.
