The 49ers have had the Packers number for some years now. Regardless, they are a dangerous team with Rodgers at the helm. The next few weeks will show how serious a contender we are.

But to be fair, Rodgers has only been able to beat us either when we're completely garbage or when our team was depleted with injuries.

This. Every year both teams are playoff contenders, Niners simply OWN the Packers, both regular season and post.

It's surprising we're not bigger rivals, like we were in the 90's. We've faced off with the Packers and bounced them from the Playoffs 3 times in the past 10 years and beat them, 3 more times in the regular season. We're 6-3 against them over the past 10 years. The only times they've beat us are in 2015(dear lord, the Tomsula year) 2018 after Jimmy tore his ACL and 2020 when Jimmy had a horrible high ankle.

I remember in the 90's it was like we faced them twice a year, like a division rival. Both in the regular season as we were both on top of our division each year and in the playoffs.
I looked it up, we faced them 7 times in 4 seasons in the late 90's and were 6-1 vs them. Old Mooch had Holmgrens #.

the hate for the packers is still there.. just go to a game

Dude, you have no idea how much I wish I could go to a game....I live in NW Alabama......I think it's a hard sell to my wife for me to hop on a plane and go to a game leaving her home with a 4 year old and less than 2 year old, lol.

I did get a chance to go to a game the last season at Candlestick against the Cards and it was AWESOME.
WISH I could do it again. I have a good friend who's nephew is a big wig at FedEx and he almost got us suite box tickets to a game at Levi's....I've never been more disappointed in my life than when that didn't work out, lol. Ok, maybe no THE most disappointed...but close.

That is a far trip with and tough to leave the wife and little ones at home...

too bad you can't feel/experience the tailgate, walk up to the stadium for these packer games... unreal... This one is going to be crazy.. We haven't had a real game in Levi with fans since the last game against the Pack.. there's lot of pinned up emotion off the last SB lost, the pandemic any other termoil that people have gone through in the last two years..

National opinion of Rodgers vs Jimmy. Niners injuries. People hate the west coast.

People who really pay attention know it's niners by 2 tds.

You missed the permanent swing ESPN had installed, it dangles just below Aaron's nuts.

That's sad. Clearly any brain dead idiot can be an "expert" for DisnESPN

SF is gonna dominant the LOS on both sides.

no Bakhtiari, possibly no Elgton Jenkins, no Za'Darius Smith…oh and they have two rookies on that OL (center/RG)

Elgton is going to play...but hopefully our DL brings hell regardless of him playing or not.

I worry about our secondary matching up vs Adams and leaving other guys open but I think the biggest edge we have in this game is we're at home and despite the injuries to our Arbys I think our offense should be able to score points on their defense.

Just have to eliminate key mistakes but that goes for any game.

The great teams win at home. We want to be great...we need that W.

Didn't practice again today…sounds like it he plays it won't be close to 100% he will be dealing with Ford/Bosa/AA none stop, no bueno for the converted LT.

Rogers gonna have to move around in this one, he's not gonna be able to stand in the pocket and slice up the secondary imo. The Lions had no pass rushers and couldn't stop the run vs us or GB.

we just have to play clean football on offense. Can't go almost a whole half without pointing pts on the board. Gotta get the running game going and how about we get out $85M TE and former 1st WR involved for this one
