There is no question who the more dominant team has been in this year’s NFC Championship matchup. The Denver Broncos proved it again last week, blowing out Minnesota by a 27-10 tally in the divisional round. Green Bay comes into Sunday’s game fresh off a 28-23 win against Seattle in its divisional outing. San Francisco opened as a 6-point home favorite, but the line quickly ticked up to 7.5. San Francisco blew out the Packers in their regular-season meeting, picking up a 37-8 win in Week 12.

Packers continue to win ugly

Green Bay has not been an underdog of more than a touchdown since October of 2018. The Packers are 3-17 in their last 20 road games in that situation. Winning ugly has been a mantra for them this season, and it continued last weekend. Seattle fell behind 21-3 in the early going, but roared back and made it a game down the stretch. However, Green Bay went 3-for-3 in the red zone and did not turn the ball over in the win. The Packers also converted nine of its 14 third downs, but the 49ers defense ranks second in the NFL on third down. Offensive lineman Bryan Bulaga missed Sunday’s game with the flu and is questionable this week. Green Bay finished the regular season with a 13-3 record.

Niners coming off complete performance
San Francisco put together a dominant performance in last week’s win against Minnesota, racking up a 27-10 victory. The 49ers went 13-3 in the regular season, finishing at the top of the NFC West and clinching the No. 1 seed in the conference. San Francisco only completed 11 passes last week, but the team still scored three touchdowns. The 49ers defense held Minnesota to just one red zone trip all game and dominated the time of possession, 39-21. Defensive end Dee Ford missed the final three games of the regular season with an injury, but he sacked Kirk Cousins and picked up a tackle for a loss in his return. Nick Bosa has also been a force at defensive end this season as a rookie. San Francisco is 10-2 in its last 12 games as a favorite.

The 49ers offense is led by quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, who has thrown for 3,978 yards and 27 touchdowns this season. Turnovers have been an issue at times, as he has thrown 13 interceptions.

He was held to a season-low 16 receiving yards last week and did not practice on Wednesday due to ankle soreness. Deebo Samuel added 57 receptions for 802 yards and three touchdowns from his wide receiver position during the regular season.
