The 49ers did enough in the 2023 regular season to secure a first-round bye that let them rest heading into the divisional round. They also get homefield advantage in their two games leading up to the Super Bowl.
Jumping straight to a home game in the divisional playoffs is a great sign for the 49ers. They’ve historically been outstanding in their home divisional games, amassing a 15-3 record in those contests, including each of their last five at either Candlestick Park or Levi’s Stadium.
