Will the 49ers Send Green Bay Packing Saturday?

Who will win this clash between two of the NFL's most prominent teams?

As a die-hard fan of the red and gold, I am feeling pretty happy about my team's performance this season.

I am even more stoked that the San Francisco 49ers are playing at home in a game that will mean the winners go on to the NFC Championship game and the losers are sent Packing (pun intended). The 49ers and the Packers are set to play at Candlestick Park on Saturday at 5 p.m.

But I have to say that I'm a bit nervous. They are, after all, the Packers.

I haven't been to a game since pre-season 2011-2012. It was against the Texans, and we lost. I was not surprised. But I was surprised that we went all the way to the NFC Championship game last year, losing to the New York Giants.

Now I am praying that they make it to the NFC title game again, sans the losing part.

What do you think? Can the 49ers beat the Packers? How far can they go this year, in your opinion?
