In 13 days, the Green Bay Packers and San Francisco 49ers will face one another in a game that could decide a first-round bye or home-field advantage in the NFC playoffs. But before that happens, the Niners play two more games, while the Packers will have the benefit of a bye week.
The first of those 49ers games takes place tonight on Monday Night Football, as they host the 7-2 Seattle Seahawks in the first of two meetings between these teams. This is arguably San Francisco’s toughest game yet, as they have played just three teams with winning records so far this season, none of which are better than 5-4.
