49ers vs. Packers final score, results from NFL divisional playoff game: Robbie Gould’s walk-off field goal sends Niners to NFC title game
The last time Green Bay and San Francisco faced off, the Packers orchestrated a come-from-behind win thanks in part to both Jimmy Garoppolo and Aaron Rodgers. Garoppolo and the Niners marched down the field and scored a touchdown with 37 seconds left to put them up 28-27.
While 37 seconds might not seem like a lot of time, it was more than enough time for Rodgers to get the Packers into field goal range and for Mason Crosby to nail a 51-yarder to win the game as time expired.

That was in Week 3 of the regular season; a lot has changed since then for both teams. The Packers went 11-3 afterward as Rodgers threw for 31 touchdowns to just two interceptions in that span. San Francisco was more up and down. The Niners went 8-6, and Garoppolo had 16 touchdowns to 11 interceptions.
As the season progressed, both teams’ indentities also started to form. Green Bay became one of the league’s best offenses and San Francisco formed one of the best defenses. The Packers ranked 10th in total offense and scoring offense while the 49ers ranked ninth in scoring defense and third in total defense.

This game, though, could hinge heavily on who is healthy and how healthy they are. Garoppolo is dealing with thumb and shoulder injuries and star defensive end Nick Bosa is still recovering from the effects of a concussion. For Green Bay, All-Pro offensive tackle David Bakhtiari and All-Pro defensive back Jaire Alexander are listed as questionable with knee and shoulder injuries, respectively.
