In order to become the No. 1 seed in the NFL, a team can’t have more than one or two weaknesses along its roster.
The 49ers didn’t show many during their impressive run to finishing the season atop the NFC, steamrolling to a 13-3 record, with all three losses coming down to one or two critical plays.
You’d especially be hard-pressed to find a single weakness that showed itself during San Francisco’s commanding 27-10 win over the Minnesota Vikings in the divisional round, as the 49ers’ defense took absolute control and the offense ran the ball down Minnesota’s throat.
