1997
As the 1 seed at 13-3, SF beat MIN in the div round then faced GB at home

Young was 36, Favre was 28

2020
As the 1 seed at 13-3, SF beat MIN in the div round then facing GB at home

Rodgers is 36, Jimmy is 28

The tables have turned???? That was when Young was just passed his prime, and we could argue Rodgers is now as well. Favre was up and coming, and now so is Jimmy G

Sorry but the only history repeating thing that's happening this year is 1981 season.

I'd rather Jimmy not have 3 INT's and 2 fumbles though. But if the game ends with another "catch" moment, I'll take it. Lol

Hell yeah but let's have a "The Throw" moment. FYI the reason why it's called The Catch is because it wasn't a good throw.

Hmm. I hear what you're saying, but I don't think there was another spot that Montana could have put that ball that was safe from a possible INT. But I will grant you that it was a better catch than throw.

Would be awesome for Jimmy to have a signature moment, just not this game. Another blowout, please.

Okay listening up!

Listened to Warren Sharp this AM, who is an analytical guru he put out three nuggets on SF vs GB ya'll are gonna love this

-GB is one of the worst teams in the NFL defending the middle of the field. Guess who uses the middle of the field more than any team in the NFL? SF. Guess who has the highest success rate? SF

-GB is one of the worst teams in football defending pre-snap motion. Guess who uses it more than any team in the NFL? SF. Guess who has the highest success rate running off pre-snap motion? SF

-GB is one of the worst teams off of play-action in the NFL over the course of the 2nd half of the season. Guess who has one of the highest success rates off of play-action? Yeah you know...SF. Also their pass rush sack rate off play-action is...drum roll...0% lol.

He tied this into last weeks game vs Seattle and how successful they were when throwing to the middle of the field, using pre-snap motion, and play-action...thing is they hardly used any of that (dummies) also talked about how much success SF had vs GB the first time doing these things.

So in conclusion, if SF does basically what they've done all yr we're in a good spot

But..but..the media says theyll always bet on Aaron Rodgers

Also apparently Rogers has been dogs**t throwing on Sherm. He said the only way they can have some sort of success vs SF's D is to run outside on the edges. All the analytical numbers lean towards SF big time.

Their LBs are way worse than Minny's. Their CBs are better but not their safeties.

The way Kyle likes to scheme and Jimmy who loves the middle of the field, I will take the weak LBs as a tradeoff for GBs better CBs. They will gameplan for Kittle but they have absolutely no answers for him. They lack anyone talented enough to limit him. Kendricks is one of the best LBs in the league and Minny had tremendous stats against TEs.

I would run two TE sets at them at different times. If they play 3 safeties, Kittle is a tremendous blocker, we will run it down their throats, until it's time to kill them with the play action.

yup, just run it down their throats. Keeps Aaron off the field, tires their defense, demoralises them, attacks their defensive weakness against the run, opens up the play action explosive plays to Kittle and Emanuel.

While the media has finally come to grips with the Niners being 'for real,' you can still see their doubts via so many close predictions and in their voices. This morning Dan Fouts was on the radio and had nothing but praise for the Packers and praise plus a few doubts for the Niners, so I was shocked when he picked the Niners. Here are some of the National, International and regional picks against the Niners this weekend:

Rob Demovsky, ESPN: Packers 28, 49ers 27
Nile McNair, Fan Sided: Packers 28, 49ers 27
Freddie Boston, Fan Sided: Packers 26, 49ers 20
Mike Florio, ProFootball Talk: Packers 24, 49ers 21
Darryl Slater, NJ.com: Packers 38, 49ers 7
Tadd Haislop, Sporting News: Packers 27, 49ers 24
Jori Epstein, USA Today: Packers 24, 49ers 23
Bryan Fischer, Athlon Sports: Packers 27, 49ers 24
Malik Ouzia, Standard (UK): Packers Win
Dan Parzych, Fansided: Packers Win

My post was tongue in cheek about The Catch. But I am serious about having a The Throw moment so we can start building up signature moments at this new stadium. I'm not down with "The Catch 4".

Agree.
Avoiding turnovers is absolute key to winning.

The article cites a lot of stats, the problem with those stats are that they were generated by playing against crap competition vs who the 49ers played. I think at one point the 49ers played 3 straight teams with 10+ wins (or something like that) vs green bay who played teams bordering a .500 record. The article is mixing apples and oranges as far as I'm concerned.

It's broad stats with no context. Like you said. They played a bunch of trash teams and actually matchup well vs The Vikings.

32 sf,24 gb lets do diss already

Ya'll hating on Kyle Brandt yesterday

38-7? Anything can happen, even 38-7. That being said, looking at the two teams, their seasons, their strengths and their weaknesses you would have to be a total idiot to predict the Pack by 38-7.

I was going to say the same thing. It wouldn't surprise me if the Packers win, but completely dominate? How exactly!? Are the Packers better on the road than NO at home or BAL at home or SEA at home?

Who's this Darryl Slater guy? Pretty salty pick ... I think he's either a huge Packer fan or lost a lot of cash last time.

These are but a few and mostly no name guys other Florio( he hates that Sherman punks his ass after every 49er win) picking the Packers to win. Most of the big name guys we hear from and see on TV the most are picking the 49ers to win and some think it will be a blowout similar to what the last match up between the two were.

For the first maybe all season long the 49ers are actually the majority choice to defeat a good opponent. Up until then it has been considered an upset or just a little surprising the 49ers keep beating good opponents.

On paper this is the easiest possible match up the 49ers could have ever hoped for with a strong chance to represent the NFC in this year's Super Bowl. The key is they need to come out and crush the Packers will early and often to show why they are clearly the better team. This would be a huge upset if the Packers are able to beat the 49ers, and if that happens it will be along off season of questions about what happen and why. Would be a very embarrassing loss IF it happens. I do not expect that to happen and have the 49ers winning 35- 14.
