49ERS vs Packers Pregame Thread - 2023 Season Divisional Round

Their QB looked great. Lots of weapons. Exciting offense. Young team playing with house money.
Just found this photo... wow! Jed had hair!

There's only one way around this. Niners need to rip the Packers into pieces. Then the pundits will move on to how Goff is a better quarterback than Purdy bc he's actually played in a SB.

Most likely. And similar with the AFC Championship QB. One game at a time. Just beat GB and they'll say/write whatever.

now that the outlier pundits have made their outrageous picks (Packers upset) for click bait, the mainstream media is making the common sense choice. Almost all the analysts for NFL.com and ESPN unanimously picking the Niners mostly by a two score margin.

its only the guys looking for attention that choose the Packers…

Maybe there is a good reason she's a **Former** Raiders executive.

its just recency bias

These young players are going to buy into it all too. Lol can't wait to stomp their f**kin brains in.

Media loves doing this during this time of the year for s**tty teams that are mediocre for most of the year, then go win streaks in December and maybe sneak into the playoffs . Unfortunately, so many people fall for it.

Stop their running game and by the 3rd quarter the game will be over because Love has been good in the second half of the season but right now he still can't win a playoff game with his arm without Aaron Jones running +100 yards.

Its not house money. This is such a weird take people keep having. You are in the final 8. 2 steps away from the Superbowl. Do you think if the packers lose they'd say "eh, no worries, it was house money!"

I'm reading a lot of fans in here acting like scared p***y cats. No one is taking any team that made it to the playoffs (and won a game) lightly.

BUT if you look at the matchup, it favors SF in multiple ways….

-Love is vastly worse vs zone. Guess who plays a ton of zone? He's good vs the blitz. Who doesn't blitz a ton and rushes 4 guys?
-They're bottom of the barrel at stopping the run. Guess who's top 5?
-They blow at defending the TE. Guess who has an all-pro TE?
which team just played over 80 snaps on defenses on a short week on the road?
-who's playing at home & coming in the healthiest they've been since week 1?
-which head coach has owned the other?
-Kyle has carved up Joe Barry's defenses.

etc etc etc.

The only way these doesn't play out in favor for SF is it we turn the ball over 4/5 times and they play perfect football. Any given Sunday, but there's a reason they're 9.5 favorites.

👍👍👍👍

I noticed this too. And if you go on Youtube and look at all the supposedly Pro-Gamblers videos, they're mostly taking the 9ers and say its hard to bet against them.

That's because they're smart… but I'd be wary of touts in general.

He's only good in the second half of the season because they've played so many bottom feeders… many of which they lost to or barely beat.
