With the crappiness of the NFC this year, here's how it shakes down. If the 49ers win today, next week game has huge implications for a team trying to shock the world and make the playoffs. If the 49ers lose today, next week's game is just about meaningless. Pretty simple really.
Best Case Scenario
49ers 31 Packers 3 - Favre continues to tarnish his legacy throwing 3 picks while Ahman Green gets nothing going on the ground. The Packers try and stack the line against Gore but Smith is able to make them pay with a couple long touchdowns, while Gore still gets his yards.
Worst Case Scenario
Packers 31 49ers 6 - Favre is able to string together some magic in his potential last game in the Bay Area. He throws 3 TDs and only one pick while Ahman Green rushes for over 100 yards. Alex Smith continues to struggle and Frank Gore can't get anything with 8 Packers stacked in the box.
Prediction
I'm gonna go with 49ers 27 Packers 14 - I'd expect the Packers to stack the box so Alex Smith is gonna HAVE to beat them. Any running back will struggle when it's 7 or 8 on 1. If Smith can beat them deep once, that'll force the Packers to play a little more honest.
