San Francisco 49ers DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy completed a fourth-quarter 24-21 comeback win in Saturday night's Divisional Round matchup against the Green Bay Packers. At times, Purdy appeared to struggle with accuracy in the rainy conditions but made enough crucial throws to earn the victory. He finished 23-for-39 for 252 yards and one touchdown. Purdy didn't throw an interception in this one, though a poor decision in the first quarter led to an easy pick bouncing off a Green Bay defender's hands. Later, trailing in the fourth quarter Purdy skillfully led the 49ers on a 12-play, 69-yard game-winning drive, a box he had failed to check off in each of his late comeback attempts this season. Next week, Purdy will either face the Detroit Lions or Tampa Bay Buccaneers at home in the NFC Championship Game.

San Francisco 49ers kicker Jake Moody will kick off San Francisco's postseason run on Saturday night versus the Green Bay Packers in the Divisional Round. Moody's rookie season has been a success, even while ranking in the bottom of the league in field goal attempts due to his historic extra-point prowess. In Week 18 versus the Rams, Moody ended a streak of 60 straight extra points converted, an NFL record since the extra-point attempt was moved back to the 15-yard line in 2015. Green Bay's defense has been unspectacular lately, allowing 32 points to Dallas last week, which should put Moody in a position to put points on the board consistent with his regular season performance. The weather is expected to be moderately rainy with wind gusts maxing out at 20 mph and shouldn't be a big issue. DFS players unwilling to spend the extra cash on Justin Tucker should consider Moody a high-floor option, leading the tier below.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk will look to carry his 2023 fantasy breakout into the playoffs when he faces the Green Bay Packers at home in the Divisional Round. In his last five full games, Aiyuk has averaged 7.2 targets, 5.4 receptions, and 87.2 receiving yards per game. He had two touchdowns in that time frame. Over Green Bay's last five regular-season games, they allowed the seventh-most fantasy points to wide receivers. As of Week 17, Green Bay had run an even split of zone and man coverage, ranking 17th in each, which is relevant since Aiyuk tends to do better against man-heavy schemes. Aiyuk should be a good option in fantasy this week, and a worthy DFS play if moderately priced.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy will look to take care of business at home in Saturday night's Divisional Round contest against the upstart Green Bay Packers. The second-year pro out of Iowa State enjoyed a breakout season in the regular season, finishing as the QB6 in total fantasy points. Green Bay's pass defense was decent in the regular season, finishing as the 12th-toughest defense against quarterbacks in fantasy. Last week in Dallas, they allowed Dak Prescott to post 403 yards passing and three touchdowns, though they did collect two interceptions, and it took Prescott a whopping 60 attempts to get there. Purdy is right up there with the top QB options in DFS and playoff pools this week, though he'll probably have a tough time outproducing Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson, who are more likely to contribute rushing numbers. Low-intensity rain and wind are expected during the game, which could lead to fewer passes, but Purdy hasn't needed large attempt totals this year to do damage.

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (back) put in three full practices this week and was removed from the final injury report on Thursday. He will play in the Divisional Round of the postseason on Saturday versus the visiting Green Bay Packers. Kittle had some minor back spasms that kept him out of a meaningless Week 18 regular season finale and he had the bye week to rest up even more in the wild-card round. The 30-year-old will be a popular DFS play in the Divisional Round this weekend after leading all tight ends in 2023 with 1,020 receiving yards despite not playing in Week 18. The Packers defense was a middle-of-the-road matchup for opposing tight ends, but they also allowed three touchdowns to Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson in the wild-card round. Kittle is the third-most expensive player at his position at DraftKings with a $5,200 price tag.
