After the sophomore quarterback suffered a fractured right ankle in San Francisco’s 27-7 win over the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday at Levi’s Stadium, the 49ers’ chances of winning Super Bowl LVII really took off. Our partners at PointsBet have the 49ers listed at +2000 to win the Super Bowl ahead of Sunday’s game. Now with Garoppolo under center, San Francisco, tied with Baltimore and Minnesota, sits at +1800, behind Buffalo (+475), Kansas City (+600), Tampa Bay (+750), Green Bay (+1200) , Los Angeles Rams (+1400), Philadelphia (+1400) and Los Angeles Chargers (+1500). The 49ers keeping Jimmy Garoopolo as a backup has paid off, and now the veteran quarterback — who has led San Francisco to Super Bowl and NFC Championship game appearances in two of the past three seasons — will take over as the starter. RELATED: Grading 49ers offense, defense in Week 2 win over Seahawks With an arguably better roster in 2022 than any previous season, Garoppolo and the 49ers are still well-equipped to make a deep playoff run.
