The Green Bay Packers hope to repeat last week’s playoff magic against the Cowboys when they host the NFC favorite San Francisco 49ers on Saturday at 8:15 p.m. The latest bold predictions for the divisional round clash have finally been revealed.
The Packers wide receiver had an emotional conversation with his teammate. Heading into Saturday night’s game, the Packers will need extra help from every player on the roster if they are to defeat Brock Purdy, Christian McCaffrey and the 49ers at home. Last week’s win over the Cowboys showed who the Romeo Dubs real X-factor will be for the rest of these playoffs.
Why Romeo Doubts the Packers’ X-Factor?
Romeo didn’t expect the Dubs to play the way they did last week against the Cowboys.Focusing on the Packers and the season, the Dubs performed like never before. With six catches for 151 yards, the Dubs had a great performance against the rival Cowboys, worthy of Dak Prescott and NFL Films’ all-time record.
Against the 49ers, the Packers will need more production from Jordan Love and the passing game. Jayden Reed is a talented rookie who can score anytime with a long pass. Christian Watson is another potential x-factor for the Packers. He has the ability to be as good as any veteran player on the field Saturday, but health issues could hold him back (Watson was limited in practice Wednesday). The Dubs have nearly 60 catches and 674 yards on the Packers this season.
At 6-foot-4 and 204 pounds, he presents a tough challenge for the 49ers’ defensive ends to face simply because of his size. With Love on the way, the Packers’ rising star QB, and Reed, Watson and others joining the pack, the Packers have a real opportunity to pull it off on Saturday.Throw in Luke Musgrave and it’s easy to see why the Packers are a luxury pick.
