This Saturday, the San Francisco 49ers play the Minnesota Vikings in the Divisional round of the NFC playoffs. Here are three reasons why the Niners will win and advance to the NFC Championship.

This is it. The moment San Francisco 49ers fans have been waiting for. After years of being at the bottom of the NFL totem pole, the 49ers have a playoff game this weekend.

Saturday, at 1:35PM Pacific Time, the Niners take on the Minnesota Vikings in the NFC Divisional playoff round. The Vikings are coming off of a red hot win against the New Orleans Saints last week, while the Niners are coming off of a first round bye.

If the Niners win this game, they will advance to the NFC Championship for the first time since 2013.

Here are three reasons why.
