NFL Week 13: Buffalo Bills vs. San Francisco 49ers odds, picks and predictions

San Francisco 49ers
San Francisco 49ers

This Monday night, the San Francisco 49ers (5-6) hope to reach a .500 winning percentage. The 49ers have struggled after they lost the Super Bowl last season. The Buffalo Bills are standing in their way, though. At 8-3, the Bills are well on their way to an NFL playoff birth. Once they get there, they'll hope to make the AFC Championship Game for the first time in nearly 30 years.

The Bills are riding high after they beat the Los Angeles Chargers last week. A win on Monday would all but secure a spot in the playoffs. Josh Allen and company are chasing the Chiefs and the Steelers for AFC seeding. Every game matters, even once they clinch the playoffs. The 49ers are a win outside of the NFC playoff group right now. A victory here would help them stay afloat in this heated race.

Monday night's game is set to start at 8:15 p.m. EST. It will be the second leg of a doubleheader after the Washington Football Team face the Pittsburgh Steelers.
