Looks like a very important game.

The NFC South and NFC East teams (the 2 best NFC conferences) all play each other, and are completely beating each other up this year - there might be a lot of 9-7s and 8-8s among these teams.

The NFC North and West play each other as well. SF is left with a pretty patsy schedule (except for us of course) and can really run the table otherwise. We HAVE to beat them, because we very possibly might be tied with them at the end of the year.
