The San Francisco 49ers are the first team to qualify for the 2023-24 NFL playoffs. And they didn't even have to play.
On Monday, it was the defeat of the Green Bay Packers against the New York Giants which mathematically sent the Californians to the final phase. A ricochet qualification which means that we forgot to talk about it in today's Breakfast.
A qualification that doesn't really make Kyle Shanahan overjoyed. Not immediately.
“ I'll have a reaction when it's the number one seed, if that's the case, because that's when the season ends“, explained the coach to the press this Tuesday, according to 49erswebzone. “ At the moment, that doesn't mean much. »
This is the third year in a row that the San Francisco 49ers have qualified for the playoffs. The fourth qualification in seven seasons with Shanahan.
After a defeat in the Super Bowl and two others in the conference finals, it is above all a title that the franchise now lacks.
The Californians have not won the title since the 1994-95 season. Steve Young was still the starting quarterback.
