The San Francisco 49ers are set to play in their first playoff game this weekend when they host the Green Bay Packers in a divisional round matchup, looking to make their fourth NFC Championship Game in five years under head coach Kyle Shanahan.
San Francisco enters the game with a near clean slate of health, as they’re set to return defensive tackle Arik Armstead, while Christian McCaffrey has received three weeks of rest to deal with his injuries.
They’ll face a Packers team that is led by first-year quarterback Jordan Love, who won his first playoff game with a strong performance last weekend to upset the Dallas Cowboys, who entered the game as significant favorites.
