🤣 @ anyone who was worried about playing the packers. They could only muster up 16 points against one of the worse defenses in the league. A defense that couldn't stop the run to save their lives.

We'll since the Eagles decided to sit their starters thinking a rematch vs Philly is when they would show their "real" stuff, hopefully they knock of Minnesota then head to Philly and knock them out as well, making Levi's the home of the NFCC game SF vs NY.

of course, we'd have to beat Seattle, then TB/Dallas at home to get there….

Very much so. In a rain ridden Levi's I think Rodgers would have a HUGE advantage over Brock. We dodged a major bullet there. I made some major sacrifices to the NFL gods last night…

Yea a hot Packers team would have been -4.5 to -5.5 with 3 points just for home field. In essence only a FG favorite and I don't blame them. Rodgers would've ate Lenoir's lunch over and over…

The #49ers 8 games with 30+ pts is tied for the 4th-most in 49ers' history since at least 1970.

The #49ers have scored 37+ points in 3 straight games, which matches the longest streak by the team since at least 1970.

Offense is on fire.

So we're getting the worst rated timeslot to start the wildcard round. Guarantee you it's because the TV network suits think Seattle is the least interesting team by far and we have a rookie starting QB even though there's plenty of big stars on the Niners. We're the highest seed in the wildcard and getting treated like we're down at 6 or 7, it's b******t.

It's because TV network suits are expecting a 49ers blowout which would be bad for ratings so they give us a cr@ppy time slot. This game will be a snooze fest by halftime.

It's the most boring game on the slot. I think everyone expects a 49ers blowout why give it more coverage than needed.

The one seed typically plays divisional round Saturday because they then have their opponent off a short week and then they have eight days prep for their conference championship game which is definitely on a Sunday. Championship Sunday

There is no way that happens if it's Philly vs Tampa/Dallas they won't go Monday night then Saturday

I think Philly tried very hard yesterday. It was a dangerous game to play if they shelved their "real stuff" with their division and #1 seed on the line. It only ended up being an onsides kick away from disaster for them
