Who are we rooting for in this Giants-Packers game?
Giants hold the tie breaker over us due to head to head. A loss pretty much eliminates the possibility of a similar record.
We hold the tie breaker over the Packers. But They are only .5 game behind with a victory.

Manusky's defense in SD giving up that crucial 4th-and-29 brings up some bad memories of blown plays late in games in SF when he was here.

Giants do NOT hold a tie-breaker over us. And our win over GB is also irrelevant for tie-breakers.
Yes, NYG beat us. However, since SF has a tie they will either have one less win or one less loss than NYG (unless NYG have a tie this year).
So, as long as we win at least as many games as NYG we get the tie-breaker.
Example:
SF - 11-4-1
NYG - 11-5
Giants and Pack have to win more games than SF period to out-seed them.
SF wins tie-breaker.

The Giants do hold a tie-breaker over us. If they were to tie a game and end up with the same record, they'd hold the tie-breaker.
They hold a tie-breaker over us, it just won't matter because we won't tie.

Yeah, OK, technically that's true.
But you get my point.

In your scenario above we aren't tied. We have the better record.
