THE HOT CORNER
MAL VAN VALKENBURG Review-Journal, 40-32-3 (overall record)
Today’s best bet: ARIZONA CARDINALS (-91/2) over San Francisco 49ers
The Cardinals are 3-0 at home and 3-0 against the spread at home. They win by an average score of 34-17. The Niners are coming off an embarrassing performance, and they have lost their last five games and failed to cover in each of them.
