It’s gameday. The Detroit Lions and San Francisco 49ers face off at 6:30 p.m. ET tonight with the NFC Championship and a trip to the Super Bowl on the line.
Both teams earned their way here with great seasons and impressive playoff wins. The Lions and 49ers haven’t played since the 2021 season, back when Detroit was a much different team and the 49ers had a different feel, too. To help get caught up on the top-seeded 49ers, I asked a few questions of my colleague Kyle Madson of Niners Wire.
He was gracious to shed some light on Brock Purdy, the 49ers defense, what worries him about the game, and a final score prediction.
