To illuminate the 49ers last made the playoffs in 2013 when Jim Harbaugh was the coach. Despite that fact, SFO is an NFL bets favorite against the Pack in the NFC Championship Game. The 49ers have been the more complete team with the superior running game and defense. As a matter of fact, the matchup metrics do favor San Francisco. And based on last week’s win over Minnesota they’re in top form.
