On today's episode of The 415ers, hosts Evan Giddings and Marc Grandi dive into the ninth all-time postseason meeting between the San Francisco 49ers and the Dallas Cowboys.
(0:48) The guys start by talking through the playoff history these two teams share. Who remembers the epic showdowns in the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s? Is the rivalry getting revitalized over these last two seasons or will it never get back to the level it was in back then? Plus, which team does this game mean more to, the 49ers or Cowboys?
(17:52) Also, the guys run through a fun exercise ahead of the Divisional Round of the NFL Postseason: how would you rank the four remaining quarterbacks in the NFC? Where does Brock Purdy slot in with Jalen Hurts of Philadelphia, Dak Prescott of Dallas, and Daniel Jones of New York? Is it crazy to think that Purdy deserves a spot in the top two and perhaps even No. 1?
(34:53) Plus, Evan and Marc run through all the keys to the game, matchups the Cowboys and 49ers must win if they hope to come out victorious on Sunday, and more. How important will third downs be for the Dallas offense against a San Francisco defense that -- believe it or not -- has struggled on that down? Which 49ers pass catches is set up for a big game on Sunday? Also, the guys make their game picks for this weekend's showdown in Santa Clara.
