Phil Simms believes the New England Patriots’ slide will extend through Sunday.
The Patriots, coming off losses to the Kansas City Chiefs and Denver Broncos, will host the San Francisco 49ers for a Week 7 contest. The 49ers have had an up-and-down season to date, though they looked fairly impressive in their latest outing, a 24-16 win over the Los Angeles Rams.
Simms likes the 49ers’ chances of scoring a road victory this weekend. The former NFL quarterback doesn’t seem to have much faith in the Patriots’ offense, and he believes their defense could be troubled by Jimmy Garoppolo and Co.
