The Packers future is very Bright and I think they will be winning that Division for many years to come.
This will be a tough game for both teams, but a lot of the advantages are currently swinging to the 49ers side (Home field, rest, etc). Do want to see clean officiating and no injuries. We already had our bad luck with injuries last year in the postseason.

Well it's not, because the Packers have been mediocre all year.

this game is going to be super interesting. Love looks good and they have like 4 decent WR options. I was a bit surprised the GB OL was able to stop Dallas pass rush Love only got pressured 4 times that whole game had an average of 2.9 seconds to throw so it was no wonder he was able to carve them up.

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.
I'm purposely blocking out those games. Look I admit both those games really stung. That 21 playoff loss was heartbreaking. We had you guys. That blocked punt changed the whole momentum of the game. You asked if I was ok on those games? No I admit those losses hurt.

It seems like 49er fans totally despise us as much as Our divisional rivals do? Is that true?

Yeah the game last week definitely caught the attention of the 49ers, so they are not going to be as unprepared for the game as Dallas was. I think it is better for the 49ers that Packers put on a clinic against Dallas instead of maybe squeaking by because of a lot of mistakes by Dallas. I think everyone is going to come out with their best during this game.

It's the Playoffs, anything can happen. As most point out, regular season records do not mean as much compared to how well a particular team is peaking coming into and course, performing during the actual playoff games that matter. GreenBay is hot, and we haven't played for 20 days, so naturally GB is going to get more air time from the talking heads and sports websites. As long as our Niners are ready for this game, ( and they should be ), they execute plays well and stay focused then they should win. The rain and wet conditions will effect both teams passing attacks thereby making the each team's ability to establish a strong running game even more critical, and consequently make each team's defensive ability to handle the rush a major key to the game. Our run defense better be on it's "A " game…Hence the home field conditions become increasingly important as the game and the weather gets worse, I hope Levi's field holds up well as doesn't become a major factor this Saturday. On a side note assuming we win, how badly torn up will the field be for next week's home game could be a concern moving forward. As many have said, getting ahead early is very important. Go Niners "send 'em Packing "

Thoughts?
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.
It's lazy analysis from someone who got a lot of money to evaluate players.
like you said just come out and say we got 7 1st rd picks and Brock. No need to makeup s**t, unless you want people to talk about you

and then they destroyed a 12 win Dallas team which for the record i thought Dallas would win easily too for the same reason you outlined above
you can only play the teams in front of you

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.
f**k that s**t! You said it, own it instead of walking back on it…makes all your future comments disingenuous/fake

I really think Dallas went into that game expecting to win putting up minimal effort. I thank them for falling on that sword so our guys wouldn't dare make the same mistake.
I also think early on Dallas was getting to Love more or at least making things somewhat uncomfortable for him. Their backend simply didn't hold up and Love was able to take advantage. It's critical for our guys to play well in the backend and I expect our guys to do just that. My biggest concern is having Brown out there(hopefully he's locked in and our communication is good)
One thing that made me pretty excited was listening to the Bosa/Young Q&A 49ers put out a few days ago and Nick mentions how playoff time guys get less selfish.
Honestly that kind of surprised me but it made sense. Contract time typically it's the regular season stats that stand out, those are the stats that get you awards to drive up contract value but in the playoffs #1 priority is winning the game. If the guys go into this game with the mind frame of 1. Do your job 2. Get the win. It will make things much harder for the Packers. If our DL rushes as a unit vs as individuals it will be big.
Let's just play the game already!
