Tune in at 4:30 p.m. ET on Saturday, August 25 for this 2018 Week 3 NFL preseason matchup.
San Francisco 49ers
The Niners fell to the Houston Texans in Week 2, 16-13. That score is less than ideal, but the more important thing to know is that Jimmy Garoppolo looked good in his short time in the field.

In just two possessions, Jimmy G. went for 136 yards and a touchdown while tossing 10-of-12. He did throw a pick on his final drive, but that’s what the preseason is for—figuring out where you can improve.
As Garoppolo himself stated, per the Associated Press (h/t ESPN), it’s the “simple mistakes” that the Niners can look to fix.
They’ll have the opportunity to do that in Week 3—the portion of the preseason schedule when we typically see the most run from starting units across the league.
Indianapolis Colts
Andrew Luck made his unofficial homecoming in Week 2 of the preseason (his official return will go down as Week 1 of the 2018 regular season against the Cincinnati Bengals at 10:00 a.m. ET on CBS).
Unfortunately, that homecoming was ruined by a 6-of-13 throwing display (0 touchdowns, 1 interception) and a 20-19 loss to the Baltimore Ravens.

In Week 3, the Colts will look to get Luck going early to gain some confidence.
If Indianapolis can make that happen, they stand a much greater chance of coming away with the victory straight up. if they can’t, it could be a long day with Luck struggling and likely seeing more time on the field than he did a week ago.

4* Free NFL Betting Prediction: 49ers ATS
This is going to be a rough first half for Luck and the Colts, but that’s not a bad thing in the long run.
Unfortunately it means that them being one-point favorites will look silly by the time the final horn sounds.
Give this one to the Niners by two touchdowns.
