Week 5 Thursday Night Pick

Arizona (-3.5) @ San Francisco - Both Arizona and San Francisco are 1-3. Arizona's slow start has been more unexpected given that they were in the NFC Championship game last year.  Drew Stanton is also starting over Carson Palmer while the 49ers lost pro bowl linebacker Navorro Bowman, with an Achilles injury.  The 49ers will also be playing without defensive tackles Glenn Dorsey and DeForest Buckner.  While Drew Stanton does not exactly inspire confidence, he does have better offensive weapons and a solid defense around him.  Look for David Johnson could excel against the worst rushing defense in the NFL.
