NFL rewards 49ers' victory with another short week ... [View all]

will play Seattle on Saturday.

MOTHERFUCKERS



From a rest standpoint, the league could have given all three remaining NFC teams that played in the wild-card round seven days’ rest. The Rams and the Bears played on Saturday of this week. Instead of scheduling them to play each other next Saturday, the NFL slotted them on Sunday, giving both teams an extra day’s rest. https://www.sfchronicle.com/sports/49ers/article/49ers-play-saturday-shanahan-s-plea-full-week-21289864.php


There was an option. Nope.

The union has the power to end this. It's not safe.
