[QUOTE="El Guapo, post: 1024312, member: 5830"] Congrats. I've watched every Packers game for even longer than that. Since I have the NFL ticket, I even watched four 49ers games this season, and several last season. Most fans know that the 49ers have been probably the strongest team in the NFC this season. However, if you've watched three decades of football then you know, well, it all kind of goes out the window in the playoffs. I still expect the 49ers to win, as I expected the Cowboys to win last week, but I know that there is hope! First off, let's not forget that the 49ers went slumming in Weeks 6-8 and lost 2 of it's last three. Team of destiny might have been the 2007 Patriots who were undefeated. However, that scrappy team from New York went down to Tampa and beat the Bucs. Then they went to Dallas and knocked off 13-3 Cowboys, also thought of as a team of destiny that season. Then they went to frozen Lambeau when the gametime kickoff was -1 degree (before the windchill) and beat the 13-3 Packers, who had a resurgent Brett Favre playing at an MVP level. Finally they knocked off the Patriots to end the perfect season. So teams of destiny and the 'better' team in the regular season doesn't mean much when scrappy teams on a hot streak come along in the playoffs. So your stats and "team of destiny" don't mean much, except who is [I][U]expected[/U][/I] to win. I like Shanahan and am impressed at how the defense has carried on even after Robert Saleh left. However, your team has been idle for several weeks while Green Bay has the hot hand. San Francisco better have top notch nickel and dime CBs out on the field to deal with all of our pass catchers. Kittle and Deebo will do their damage to us. I expect that McCaffrey will shine as usual. I also expected CeeDee Lamb and the boys to do that last week. So the best that we all can say is..."Who knows." [/QUOTE]
