49ERS vs Packers Pregame Thread - 2023 Season Divisional Round

Me? I already commented on it.

Calling 7 QBs terrific that includes Goff, Love, and Mayfield AND specifically singling out Brock as not being….well that makes her opinion on the topic complete horses**t.

i could careless what her previous job was, she was clearly horrible at it.

my whole debate about Brock was never saying he was bad or didn't possess some amazing QB traits…It was mostly about arm strength and overall I'm not wrong there. Also there's a ton of really good QBs who don't have that elite level arm talent… all said and done, I hope he becomes that Drew Brees level guy.

I need someone to call her on her BS. What exactly makes Mayfield or Goff "terrific"? Forget Love and just answer wtf those guys do that put them in the same category as Mahomes, Allen and Lamar, because that's exactly what she just did.

Should've just said we have 7 1st round picks and guys expected to be terrific and Brock Purdy, expected not to make the roster.

If this offense gets going, it is very hard to imagine this team losing. Especially at home with 97% of 49ers fans filling the stadium. Here is the rushing matchup between 49ers rush offense vs packers rush defense.

APG
49ers O- 29.4 (6th)
Packers D- 28.8 (26th)

YPG
49ers O- 140.5 (3rd)
Packers D- 128.0 (28th)

YPA
49ers O- 4.8 (4th)
Packers D- 4.4 (24th)

FDPG
49ers O- 8.6 (2nd)
Packers D- 7.1 (25th)

TDPG
49ers O- 1.6 (2nd)
Packers D- 0.9 (20th)

I believe we're the better team and unless we stupidly still overlook the Packers after what they did to Dallas we'll find a way to win.

BUT

Doing the comparisons like you just did based on the whole season doesn't seem wise. Teams change over the course of the season. Green Bay was battling injuries a good portion of this year and ironically are at their healthiest going into this game. On top of that they're a young team and we all know that experience for young players is key in their development and they're developing quickly.

Simply put they're a much better team now than they were earlier in the year so the season averages don't give the true comparison. They're a lot closer now than they were first half of the season.

However, once again we are a better team. We need to play that way and not hurt ourselves and give them extra opportunities to win the game. Don't turn the ball over and don't make mental errors on defense - bad penalties, sloppy tackling or busted coverage/blown gap assignments.

Win it and do it again 2 more times.

I am simply giving reason for 49ers fans to be hopeful. There are too many fans in here afraid of a packers team that snuck into the playoffs and beat a very overrated cowboys team.

I think fans can respect an opponent for what they've done but also be confident in our squad.

But this is the NFL and nothing is guaranteed. We've seen the better team lose many times.

Our guys simply have to play at the level we know they're capable of and avoid mental errors where their talent level is nullified by those errors. We're the better team. We should not fear any team IMO. That includes Baltimore. But we do have to play the game the right way and not hurt ourselves.

She walked back her comments on calling ALL the other QBs terrific on 95.7. Probably because she was getting a lot of backlash for that statement.

If you and other fans want to be worried about this game than that is your prerogative. I for one am super excited to see my team go out there and kick some ass. None of this negative nancy bs is going to convince me to be worried and anxious for this game.
We always beat you guys in Lambeau but lose in SF.

We never lose to SF in GB.

49ers are 5-4 vs the Packers in the postseason.

GB is 2-2 at home
SF is 3-2 at home

Packers & Favre pretty much owned us. But the Niners owned Rodgers. 4-0.

I feel like the games between 96-99 was at the peak of the Packers greatness. They only had one SB win. But they had a great D and O.

There are two games that were "upsets" imo. GB winning in SF in 95. Which basically handed Dallas the SB. And that 2021 game at Lambeau.

We got blown out in the NFC Championship Game in 2020. We lost in 2012 to you guys in SF.

Are you ok?

You literally lost to us at your house the last time you went to the playoffs and the prior time you played us at home in your "Kap revenge game" Both games were in extreme cold too. Both times you had homefield advantage over a warm weather team and lost.

Officiating note: Referee Alex Kemp's regular-season crew led the NFL with an average of 15.3 flags per game. The Packers and 49ers both finished in the top third of the NFL for most flags this season, the 49ers with 125 and the Packers with 124.
