They have beaten the Eagles, Rams, and Seahawks. If the beat the Lions this week they would have beaten 4 of the 6 other playoff teams.
All at home, where the Cowboys are a different team. It hasn't translated to beating anyone with a pulse on the road.

The 49ers are not invincible. I thought they would take the Ravens to the woodshed.
So did I. This somewhat salvaged the weekend. Still not happy about Dallas losing. But watching the 49ers get beat down was fun. They also beat them up. 49ers had a lot of injuries tonight. They are a different team without Trent Williams.

For whatever reason, Dallas will simply not punch someone in the mouth. Don’t know if they can’t or - just won’t. Either way, that is how you beat good teams .. every time, no exceptions.

If DAL would pull their heads out we could be the #1 seed. Idiots
That would require the 49ers to lose their two remaining games and Philly to lose to the Giants. SF play’s Washington next week.

My OP was about the narrative that the 49ers are unbeatable and can’t be had. They just were. Let’s stop acting like the season is over.
Yeah its fun when fans realize no one is going undefeated. But SF will still probably have home field and a bye while Dallas will need to win 3 playoff road games.

And the team regarded as the best heading into tonight is getting smoked at home. To think the 49ers are guaranteed to beat us is wrong to assume IMO.

Our team is soft in all important areas.

Chargers, Panthers, and Giants. Three losers who won't be playoff opponents. Another random factoid.
Does not change the fact we have won road games. Stay focused

Who in the NFC can beat the 9ers, or even play with them? Nobody in the NFC beats the Ravens, they have proven this time and time again so why is the result tonight such a shock to anybody? The only way the 9ers will be beat is if the injuries pile up, and continue into the post season and with the style of game they play it's plausible this could happen

Of course they can. They've proven they can beat bad teams on the road. They haven't proven they can beat a playoff team on the road. It is what it is.
Oh really, like the last game couldn't have gone either way.

Doesn’t matter what they are. We can’t win away games.* And that is what we’ll be playing the entire Tourney.

(* against Tourney Teams)
Now it's at least accurate thus far.

To say we can't beat tourney teams away has yet to be proven definitively this season.

We have struggled yes had the lead with 3:30 ish left against Dolphins and were 6 yards from closing out the Eagles.

We have been in those games though.
