Although the Sunday Night Football timeslot is generally reserved for one of the top games of the week, the contest in prime time in week 3 is shaping up to be a relatively mediocre contest. The San Francisco 49ers saw their preferred starting quarterback, Trey Lance, lost for the season with a broken ankle.
That means that the 49ers’ matchup with the Denver Broncos will see a familiar quarterback matchup: Russell Wilson (formerly of the Seattle Seahawks) against Jimmy Garoppolo. Still, will that pairing move the needle from a casual fan’s perspective?
