NFL analyst offers up full season record predictions, including why 49ers won’t make playoffs

Each year, USA Today NFL writer Nate Davis puts together an exercise where he predicts the results of all 267 NFL games, including all 17 weeks of the regular season and the full playoffs. July predictions hold limited overall value, but they are still fun for discussion purposes. And as usual, fans of plenty of teams will have some beef with Davis.

Davis goes out on a heck of a limb with his Super Bowl pick, predicting the Atlanta Falcons will beat the Los Angeles Chargers in Super Bowl 53. His San Francisco 49ers prediction on the other hand, while it will annoy some people, is not exactly out of the realm of the possible.
