Break On Through
Here we are again. One year later and one game away from a trip to the Super Bowl. The 49ers must prevail Sunday or the world will surely end. Once again Jim Harbaugh and John Harbaugh both have their teams…

You Ain’t Got A Thing, If You Ain’t Got That “Ing”
The NFC Championship Game will feature the number 1 and 2 seeds in the playoffs. How quaintly proper. And there are no wildcard entrants still in the running from either conference. Terrif! The four remaining teams all earned their way…

1998 Redux

The Homestretch
Monday Night’s game in the Superdome just about guaranteed that the 49ers will not be letting up in the month of December. Nobody, even the Packers, wants to end up in New Orleans during the playoffs. If the 49ers can…
The Rhett Butler Division
Moving along to the NFC South, let’s look at the four teams that the 49ers will play this coming year. Tampa Bay is this division’s doormat and will be so again this year. Historically, this franchise has been a pretty…
