If they overlook the Vikings, sure they will likely lose. But do you really think this team is overlooking anybody in the playoffs?
On paper the Niners are the better team, so if they play to their ability the outcome shouldn't really be in doubt.
I kinda feel bad for you if you're predicting the Niners lose...tough to be a fan with that approach.
Where did I predict a loss? I was just letting the fans know that they shouldn't be over confident because the letdown can be horrible. That 1987 team was better than our current team and the Vikings probably weren't as good as this Vikings team. Players are better at not under estimating teams than fans are but it can and does happen to them too. That's how superior teams get upset. Sometimes they are looking ahead like we could be to the Seahawks. I certainly hope they aren't.
But dude, that was 30 years ago. I think people on here are too pessimistic. Why not roll into the game with confidence? Especially when our team is the #1 seed, playing the hardest schedule bar none in the NFL. Coming out 13-3. Lost all our games by a total of what, 13 points combined.
all our games were lost on the final play of the game. pretty wild.
