The San Francisco 49ers are preparing for next week’s division-round playoff game as if they already know their opponent.

With a first-round bye a trio of San Francisco scout teamers wore the jerseys numbers of key Green Bay Packers during Friday’s practice.

They simulated top Green Bay wide receivers Randall Cobb and Jordy Nelson along with tight end Jermichael Finley as third-string 49ers quarterback Scott Tolzien tossed passes.

and i don't mean it's simple to tackle AP.. obviously it's not..

just that the vikings aren't nearly as perplexed as green bay. imo of course.

Has nothing to do with GB here as far as motivating the Vikings, but you better believe this will add some fuel to their fire for the game. Still believe GB will win this though. SF will have a tougher time with GB, for its a more complex offense and may be the main reason for simulating their schemes during practice, but lets not forget that the Vikings beat them during the season at a time when they looked invincible. They shouldn't forget that either.

This is normal, and teams with a bye do this every year. Absolute non-story.

49ers will not play the Vikings. Guaranteed.

If Minnesota wins, they play the Falcons.

There is that, as well. They will either (in order of likelihood) play GB or the winner of Wash/Seattle. The former is the most likely scenario, but if that changes, they can switch gears next week.

Given that if Minnesota beats GB, you are that confident in putting your playoff eggs in the Matty Ice basket?
