49ers Are Still Fan Favorites to Win Super Bowl
At the start of the National Football League season, the San Francisco 49ers were the fan favorites to win Super Bowl XLVII. As the playoffs approach, fans still give the ‘Niners the edge to win it all, but it's close.
Seventeen percent (17%) of Pro Football Fans believe the 49ers will win the Super Bowl, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey. That’s up slightly from 15% who felt that way in October. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
