San Francisco 49ers vs. Minnesota Vikings – August 20, 2022 6:00pm CST

Injuries didn’t prevent the San Francisco 49ers from beating the Green Bay Packers 28-21. Now, they’ll face another NFC North team in the second week of preseason. Look for Trey Lance to spend a bit more time on the field in this one as well.

The Minnesota Vikings won’t send Kirk Cousins out to the field in this one. Instead, they’ll allow Sean Mannion and Kellen Mond to continue fighting for the No.2 QB position. Mond performed better than expected, but we still believe the 49ers will win this game.

Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Jacksonville Jaguars – August 20, 2022 6:00pm CST

The Pittsburgh Steelers had quite the showing in Week 1 of the preseason. Kenny Pickett showed why he was drafted by Pittsburgh, throwing for 95 yards and two touchdowns. With Pickett under center, the Steelers were able to beat the Seahawks 32-25.

The Jacksonville Jaguars had a tough outing against the Cleveland Browns. They lost the game 24-13, and their offense was unable to do much. After seeing what Pickett did last week, we’ll take the Steelers in this one.
