defeat Packers – response
That’s all I have to say for now. I should go sleep for a few hours before we repeat the fun tomorrow—or rather, later today as it is right now.
In any case, both of the top two seeds—the Baltimore Ravens, who advanced more convincingly than the San Francisco 49ers—will host the championship games the following week.
Who, though, will go with them? On Sunday, there is the major game between the Buffalo Bills and Kansas City Chiefs, followed by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at the Detroit Lions.
Read our recap of an exciting NFL Playoffs night, then come watch two more nail-biting games on Sunday night to round out our final four.
I’ll see you then!
There was nothing in that game, and the Green Bay Packers were actually the better team for the majority of it, so they should be ashamed of themselves tonight.
They can still take a lot of positives from that, chief among them being their young quarterback Jordan Love, who may get to play in a few more games similar to this one against Brock Purdy in the near future.
Just two of the young quarterbacks that appear to be a promising crop that will be in the news for the next ten or so years.
Packers of Green Bay 21–24 49ers of San Francisco
In the end, Brock Purdy did just enough to get San Francisco across the finish line despite a difficult night, but Christian McCaffrey was the 49ers’ main weapon overall.
Another all-action performance by McCaffrey, who gained 98 yards rushing and 30 receiving yards in addition to scoring those two touchdowns, was enhanced by the fact that Deebo Samuel was not available to assist him for the majority of the game.
Even though they have a lot of cleaning up to do before next week, San Francisco will always feel like they have a chance as long as they have McCaffrey and that defense.
Full-time: Immediately iconic
San Francisco 49ers 24–21 Green Bay Packers
For the fourth time in five years, the San Francisco 49ers will compete in the NFC Championship game in the most dramatic form.
Until the very end, when they took the lead with just over a minute remaining, they never really appeared to have a chance to advance.
Jordan Love played a great primary, but in the closing moments of the game, he intercepted another pass in an attempt to push the Packers within striking distance of a field goal.
The 49ers manage to escape from jail and make it through, and they will play the Detroit Lions or Tampa Bay Bucs in the Super Bowl the following week.
Once more, Dre Greenlaw! With some remaining time, Jordan Love doesn’t really need to make the bold play of throwing the ball back across his body on first down, but he tries it on the run and Greenlaw catches him.
And that’s the game: the 49ers are released from prison!
Again, Dre Greenlaw! Jordan Love tries to make the audacious play of tossing the ball back across his body for first down with some time left, but Greenlaw snags him when he tries it on the run.
That’s the way it works: the 49ers are getting out of jail!
