I hate the Niners...I have since the Steve Young era. Sure the odds say EVERY team has much less chance of missing the SB than making it. However, that being said.
They are built to make a deep run. We saw what a great defense is capable of a decade ago, even against the statistically GOAT offense.
You need a great D and some REALLY good skill players. Niners have that. Deebo is just one helluva football player, the type of guy who can "tilt the field" almost by himself. Then add in Kittle, Christian M, and Bosa to the mix.
I think the Niners would need a really, really bad QB performance to be out of a game. I think they have the all around talent to overcome a slow start or a 1 (maybe 2 )turnover game by Purdy. I would be incredibly surprised to not see them in the NFCCG. Of course I'll be rooting against them unless they are playing the Cowboys.
