Green Bay Packers vs San Francisco 49ers
Head to head
Preview
How it plays out
Green Bay Packers vs San Francisco 49ers is a cross-division NFC test that could swing the conference picture. This projects as a coin flip, 53-47 with the spread at GB -0.5. Only 2 spots separate them in the power rankings, about as even as it gets.
Tactically, Green Bay Packers will want to lean on deep skill room to attack San Francisco 49ers, whose secondary turnover is the obvious pressure point. Going the other way, San Francisco 49ers's disruptive front could punish Green Bay Packers if red-zone offense goes unaddressed. Expect both staffs, Matt LaFleur and Kyle Shanahan, to script around exactly that battle.
Keep an eye on Jordan Love (QB) and Brock Purdy (QB): the two most likely to decide it with a single play. Packers get the home crowd, worth a few points of swing before kickoff.
