We will not lose to the Giants again. No way in hell.

I still see a 12-3-1 season, with the possibility of owning a tie-breaker to win a bye week. -Atlanta is the only team I see winning 13+ games (still), this has been a whacky season, don't expect the second seed to need more than 12 wins to get the #2 seed this time around.
Fact: 49ers were the only NFC division leader in week 10 to gain any sort of conference points/not 'officially' lose (lost; Bears, Falcons, Giants). -Yeah, it was a bad week for everybody.

I wish I shared your enthusiasm, but his team loses at New Orleans, New England, and quite possibly St. Louis. Unless they pull their heads outta their asses.

I think playing 1 game in 24 days really f**ked up our rhythm. We will see the real 49ers team on Monday vs the Bears.

2) GB 12-4
3) SF 11-4-1
4) NYG 9-7
5) CHI 11-5
6) SEA 10-6

If there's a strong possibility of the 49ers going #3 seed and Seahawks going #6 by December 23, how many of you would rather we tank the Seahawk game instead of trying to take them down? Beating a team 3 times in one season is difficult. Doable but not desirable.
The old playoff rules that were in place until the '90s, maybe '02 said you couldn't play a divisional team in the wildcard (maybe even divisional playoff) game. But now with the strict seeding, #3 plays #6 regardless of who it is.
This is a similar scenario to the Lions/Packers week 17 game last year where the possibility of the two teams meeting in the playoffs was realistic.
All of this is assuming this is a 95%+ likely scenario. One game will remain afterwards for both teams as well as the other 4 NFC playoff contenders. If this was a week 17 game where the playoff scenario would be certain at 4:25 PM ET save 1 or 2 teams, I'd imagine it's a legit consideration.
