Now that the team has clinched the second seed in the NFC playoffs, they will prepare to face their rivals, Seattle Seahawks. It will be a Wild Card round. Fans favor San Francisco and expect them to defeat the Seahawks.

The 49ers winning streak is credited to the 2022 Mr. Irrelevant because he took the reins from Jimmy G. Since then, the third-string QB has only improved their score. He has made five starts, winning each one. During those games, the 49ers have averaged an NFL-best 33.6 points per game. Despite his outstanding performance, he does not underestimate Seattle and believes that they can fight back.
