Packers vs. 49ers: 3 key matchups to watch in Week 3

The three key matchups for the Packers in the Week 3 showdown with the 49ers.

The Green Bay Packers are 1-2 in their last three meetings with the San Francisco 49ers. The sting from the 2019 NFC Championship Game still lingers, but the 49ers probably remember last year’s 17-point loss just as well.

This week’s matchup is a battle of two potential playoff teams. The 49ers are 2-0 with wins over the Detroit Lions and Philadelphia Eagles. Meanwhile, the Packers are trying to build off last week’s win over the Lions with a statement win in Week 3.

There are plenty of individual matchups to be excited for during this matchup but let’s highlight three that should draw the most attention.
