Preferred NFCCG Opponent: Rams or Bucs?

I don't know which team I would prefer. here are pros and cons to each matchup. I know that this team matches up well with the rams, but the Niners didn't exactly blow them out in the last meeting. They had the ball at the end with a chance to win. Plus they did jump out to a big early lead. One thing about winning streaks. They always come to an end.

Whichever team they face they'll be playing in much better weather. It's supposed to be about 70 in Tampa and 74 in LA. That's about a 100 degree swing. I wonder if there's ever been that big of a difference from one game to the next.

Also the Bucs run D is best in nfl

You make a great point about the Bucs run defense being number one, I never knew that. But the Packers weren't that good in run defense either and they stone cold shut down the 9ers running game. Who knows,, they may have trouble stopping Deebo and opens up Kittle or Aiyuk.

It'll be tough no matter who that's for sure. Let's hope they kick the hell out of each other today and come in more banged up than us lol

Amen to that!!!!

Rams injuries - Andrew Whitworth and Taylor Rapp out for vs Bucs

Bucs injuries - Tristan Wirf questionable vs the Rams

I got a feeling Brady and the Bucs are gonna light up the Rams.

If they get to Stafford and just make him see things it's over for LA. I just rather play LA for the short flight, the ownage and the no doubt home field advantage. At this point I feel like we can beat anyone but Brady and their defensive front 7 make me nervous. I just feel we'll have a much easier time moving the ball against LA

Yeah....lets see what happens today. I'm still on shock from last night to be honest

I am torn in this one.

both are equally dangerous and equally beatable.

I rewatched the final 5 min over and over to 130am

btw did you notice the nets had their B crews on - really bad takes all night
I'm all about closing down opposing teams stadiums. We closed down AT&T Stadium last week, we closed down Lambeau yesterday. So next up would be to close down Raymond James Stadium, followed by Sofi.

The truth is with the Bucs we need jimmy to play insane and out score them. The defense can play amazing but Brady will still get some scores. The defense was amazing last night so having them play at a championship level certainly gives us a chance regardless.

Not that the rams are much worse or easier, but the underlying conversation here is Brady is a championship QB. Stafford and Jimmy are not.
Rams...

Would be great to have a home playoff game.

I can't believe it either still. I'm just happy today I can watch football calmly and relieved we're in the championship game waiting on one of these teams.

Bucs are no joke defensively that's why, their secondary can be had but with the way our damn oline can struggle on the right side and we don't know about Trent it can be tough. Plus Brady is Brady even with just Evans and Gronk as his main guys now. And we know Jimmy is going to give them at least 1, I don't want extra possessions for Brady.
Brady v Garoppolo is master v apprentice. And having Patriots fans lose their minds is a plus.

As we should all be. The Bucs I think is going to be tough, its Brady. On the other side, yes we have LA Rams number but sooner or later that card will fall. If it does, I'd rather it fall during the regular season than the NFCCG. Our season ends if we lose the NFCCG. I do like the though of having another home game at SOFi though. I think the crowd definitely helped. In our last meeting we shot ourselves in the foot at the beginning and we could have been up early in that game. I wanna say we'd learn from our mistakes in that one but with Jimmy?

We'll know this afternoon what happens.

This
I think the Bucs. I know that six win stat is compelling but it is a stat that will fall. I don't want it to happen next weekend. And we all know Brady, of course, but he is not very mobile and if our D line plays lights out it could be enough to put him on his ass a few times.

I think it needs to be Tampa this time. Don't assume an automatic Rams win.
Dak....Rodgers...Brady...Mahomes

Well FWIW, since 2011 vs the Bucs if we beat them twice, we lose to them twice. And now in 2016 and 2018 the 49ers have lost to them twice, 2019 the 49ers have won can they get another W to continue the trend??
