Niners vs Peckers

[Montalban]

Shows how far Ambry Thomas has come when you hear this and say "Oh God" instead of "Thank God"

""Starting cornerback Ambry Thomas is also listed as questionable with a knee contusion. Shanahan said if Thomas is unable to play, either Dontae Johnson or Josh Norman would get the call.""

hilarious

Lafleur knows Dallas well from NFCE days... one and done is a loooong tradition

 

[Montalban]

Finally some sanity from ESPN; all 8 “experts” picked the Packers. Enough of this “bad matchup” nonsense

 

[Montalban]

Rodgers, obviously will be the difference but I think the two excellent running backs on GB, Jones and Dillon will surprise the 49ers and pound them early setting up the play action for GB to dominate through the air. Next to impossible for a beat up 49er team to beat a well rested and healthy Packer team in Lambeau. Close for a while but GB pulls away in the second half
31-10

this your reverse psychology take again?

You actually think the 49ers will win? Wow! They did well to get this far but this is the end of the road. And with Garoppolo leaving probably the end of the line for quite some time. Been a great run though

think they have a great shot at the upset, so wouldn't surprise me at all

Lafleur and Kyle know each other very well

they know GB and AR and have beat them a few times

excellent running game that can challenge GB defense and keep AR off the field

physicality of play, better defense

and looks like you'll have some key players back too...

People think too much of the 49ers running attack. They only rank 7th in the league. As for defenses, Green Bay looks to be ranked 13th and the 49ers 11th. No difference really.

Run defense can be exploited...

"Of course, everyone will be watching to see how Green Bay’s run defense (5 ypr, 113.2 ypg allowed from Week 6-17) holds up."

Won’t be long til we find out. Either way, I’ll be satisfied. It’s much more than I expected after the 3 and 5 start. And there is no shame in losing to the league’s best team on the road

yet another reason I think the Niners have the edge, they can play looser and freer without all the heavy expectations
lawdy be... if AR and the Pack lose...

feel like Niners +6 is a slam dunk myself

ive got y'all winning the upset by a point or two

I watched a replay of the game against GB earlier this season. With the disastrous defensive collapse at the end I’d forgotten that they had four pass interference plays on 3rd down that kept scoring drives alive. I’d also forgotten how well Sermon and Sanu played in that game
Maybe they can beat the Packets………Nah, who am I kidding?

As you said..we will know shortly. Good luck to your Niners

Interesting and illuminating article on AR

 

[Kinzu]

Geez does anyone want to catch the football or win a block tonight? This is embarrassing.

 

[Kinzu]

Feels like that Int is from Jimmy's injuries. He can't throw on the run. He needs his legs to push the ball.

 

[Kinzu]

Ok that was 100% a fumble but how is it still Green Bay ball when our guy was the one to stand up with the ball? Sure doesn't seem like the Green Bay guy had it that securely if he couldn't stand up with it.

One of the ugliest playoff wins you'll ever see, but best game the defense has had this season and the special teams came up huge. Offense however was mostly offensive and not in the good way.

 

[Montalban]

Garoppolo says "Hey haters, how you like me now?" Another game winning drive. Total team effort This one goes to the defense and special teams. I loved seeing Rodgers walk down the tunnel to the locker room with another playoff loss.

 

[Kinzu]

How is it that Kyle Shanahan gets negative comments and press as if he might be a bad season away from losing his job, but Matt LaFleur is held up as this great coach leading Rodgers the best football of his career? Where has this great coaching got Green Bay when it matters?
