Green Bay Packers bold predictions for Divisional Round vs. 49ers

Thus far, the Packers’ 2023 NFL campaign has been successful. With a 9-8 record at the end of the

regular season, they defeated the Dallas Cowboys in the Wild Card Round. The Packers, under the

leadership of quarterback Jordan Love, have shown tenacious and resilient this season. Currently, the

key question is if they possess the necessary skills to go far in the playoffs. Let’s now examine some

audacious predictions for the Packers as they excitedly await their meeting with the 49ers in the

postseason.

The Packers delivered a dominating performance against the Cowboys at AT&T Stadium in the NFC

Wild Card Round. Matt LaFleur’s squad swiftly took a 7-0 lead on the opening drive and expanded it to

27-0 after Darnell Savage’s pick-six. They then countered a 10-0 Cowboys run with a touchdown to make

it 34-10. Lastly, the Packers further solidified their lead at 48-16 with consecutive touchdowns in the

fourth quarter. Despite a couple of garbage-time touchdowns, the overall quality of the Packers’

performance should not be overlooked. Against the Cowboys, Green Bay executed nearly flawlessly. It

marked the team’s seventh victory in the last nine con

In the process, Green Bay became the first No. 7 seed to claim victory since the playoff expansion in

2020. Quarterback Jordan Love, in his inaugural postseason appearance, completed 16-of-21 pass

attempts for 272 yards and three touchdowns. Love finished the regular season ranked second in the

NFL with 32 touchdown passes. He continued his impressive form with 21 TD passes and only one

interception over the last nine games.

Now he faces the formidable 49ers defense. They are known for excelling in various aspects, and the

Packers have a challenging task ahead. The 49ers concluded the regular season with a stingy defense,

allowing a mere 17.5 points per game. That ranked third lowest in the league.
