I’ve made some adjustments to the office pool picks — I dropped the 49ers from 9 points down to 5 and moved everyone else up accordingly. The concern is the 49ers’ injury situation, with Brock Purdy expected to miss 2–5 weeks due to a turf toe variant and Mac Jones stepping in at quarterback. Plus, they’re on the road. I still think they can win, but the margin feels less secure.
Also moved the Steelers and Dolphins.
