Lions vs. 49ers: Top Fantasy Bets, Predictions for 2024 NFC Championship

Both the 49ers and Lions are stingy defenses against the run. They will both look to shut down each other’s ground-based offense and force the opposing back to beat them.

Under offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, Jared Goff has played his best and most consistent football. Sent packing from Los Angeles, with the idea that he would be a placeholder at best for the Lions, he has developed into a franchise QB with the leadership qualities necessary to lead his team to this point.

He has the weapons, too, in Amon-Ra St. Brown, Josh Reynolds, Jameson Williams, and running backs Gibbs and Montgomery. He can put points up.

With that said, he is still prone to mistakes when pressured and San Francisco defensive coordinator Steve Wilks will look to test the health of the Detroit offensive line by sending unique blitz packages to confuse and stunt Goff’s play.

Brock Purdy will be able to find his receivers downfield against a Lions defense that gives up big plays to talented receivers, of which the 49ers have plenty.

The Lions will make it interesting for a half or so before the high-powered Niners do just enough to ensure this Cinderella story strikes midnight.

Prediction: 49ers advance to Super Bowl LVIII with 10-point win over Detroit
