49ers vs. Packers: 3 bold predictions for divisional round of NFL playoffs
By Tee Epps
Prediction No. 3: 49ers win the turnover battle vs. Packers
San Francisco has been prone to turning the ball over this season, while Aaron Rodgers is prone to not doing so.
Nevertheless, let’s predict the 49ers actually emerge on the right side of the turnover battle during the divisional-round game.
Despite the frigid temps expected at Lambeau Field for kickoff, we can be confident in San Francisco’s chances of getting turnovers. The 49ers were able to create 22 fumbles while recovering 11 of them, and they also added an additional nine interceptions and returned two for touchdowns.
As long as San Francisco protects the ball and forces Green Bay into some bad situations, good things are bound to happen for the squad
At this point of the season, the 49ers exceeded expectations. They snuck into the playoffs as the No. 6 seed and were the only road team to win on Wild Card weekend. Many folks wrote the Niners off a long time ago and didn’t expect them to still be here, but now that they are, let’s see how far they can push the limits.
