Goodbye!

The San Francisco 49ers, which belonged to Candlestick Stadium, has officially come to an end, and from today, it will become a black lead in the history books: "From 1960 to 2013, as the home of the San Francisco 49ers, they won the division championship nineteen times, won the National League championship six times, and won the Super Bowl six times." ”

A simple sentence condenses the memories of several generations, bits and pieces are hidden in that long history, passed down in the form of images and words, memories and stories, perhaps a century later, someone will recall: I once stood in that court to witness Lu Ke's first appearance, which was the last glorious beginning of Candlestick Stadium, but also the beginning of another dynasty of the San Francisco 49ers.

That's how history is written.

However, the 2013 season of the San Francisco 49ers is still going on, and at the very least, the team is looking forward to continuing its footsteps.

After an easy win over the Atlanta Falcons without any suspense, the San Francisco 49ers have unwittingly won five in a row and improved their season record to 11-4 -

This record has tied with the New England Patriots, Kansas Chiefs and Carolina Panthers, and is currently only behind the Denver Broncos and Seattle Seahawks who have lost three seasons and is temporarily tied for third place in the league. In other words, the San Francisco 49ers have truly returned to the first group in contention.

In the league's official power rankings, the Denver Broncos, Seattle Seahawks, New England Patriots and San Francisco 49ers are in the top four, which can be seen in the positive attitude of analysts and commentators towards the defending champions, but unfortunately, because of the special playoff rules of the NFL, the San Francisco 49ers still have not locked up a playoff spot.

the top seed in the American League, the Denver Broncos; The No. 2 seed, New England Patriots.

League of Nations top seeds, Seattle Seahawks; Second seed, Carolina Panthers.

So, what about the San Francisco 49ers?

The San Francisco 49ers, like the Kansas Chiefs, have been dropped to the No. 5 seed for their arch-rivals' flawless performances this season, but the reality between the two teams is slightly different — if not dramatically.

The Kansas Chiefs' American League is fully divided, and the battle for the sixth-seeded wildcard spot is now heating up, but even the San Diego Chargers, Baltimore Ravens and Miami Dolphins, who have the best records, have only eight wins, a full three wins away from the Kansas Chiefs, in other words, with only one game left in the regular season, regardless of the outcome of the regular season, the Kansas Chiefs can lock up the fifth seed.

Furthermore, the Kansas Chiefs are behind fellow Denver Broncos because of both their divisional record and their record against the same opponent, which means that even if they win their final regular-season game, they will not be able to replace the Denver Broncos in the top four seeds.

That said, the final regular-season game is a game for the Kansas Chiefs to give up, and they can start preparing for the playoffs with all their energy levels in place.

But the San Francisco 49ers, who were in the whirlpool of the League of Nations, were not so lucky.

The Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys of the National League East, the Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears of the North Division of the National League will both face off in the final week of the regular season, with the winner advancing to the playoffs and the loser burying the entire season's efforts.

It's so simple, it's so cruel - but it's also so wonderful, the head-on duel of the sworn enemy in the same district really interprets the meaning of the word "battle of life and death" to the fullest, just thinking about it makes people's palms sweat, and they can't wait to collide head-on!

Similarly, there are variables in the championship spots in the South and West divisions of the League of Nations.

In the South Division of the National League, the Carolina Panthers reversed the New Orleans Saints with a season-ending explosion and climbed to the division championship, but the two teams are currently only one win apart, and there are still many variables in the final regular season, and they will face the rivals in the same division, the Carolina Panthers vs. the Atlanta Falcons, and the New Orleans Saints vs. Tampa Bay Pirates, which also makes the game skyrocketing.

The Carolina Panthers currently have an absolute advantage, and if both teams win or both lose, then the division title will still be theirs; The only surprise is that if the New Orleans Saints win and the Carolina Panthers lose, the division title will change hands again.

In addition, the division champion of the southern division of the National League is likely to directly enter the top two seeds and enjoy the treatment of a first-round bye; The second-place finishers in the National League South will enter the Wild Card Tournament and will have to play their first playoff game next week.

As a result, the situation becomes very delicate, and the four teams in the South Division of the National League have the opportunity to change the situation of the entire league playoffs, so it is up to them to play.

And one of the most complicated subdivisions of the entire alliance is the western district of the League of Nations.

Unexpectedly appeared in the sixteenth week of the regular season, the Arizona Cardinals went north to the Century Chain Court to challenge the Seattle Seahawks, in this strong showdown between the sworn enemies in the same district, the Arizona Cardinals who were fighting away broke out with super energy, and finally took away a victory from the away side with a score of "10:17", not only breaking the Seattle Seahawks' unbeaten home game this season, but also winning a chance to win a chance in the playoffs for themselves by giving the third defeat of the season to the sworn enemy in the same district!

Who would have thought?

The Seattle Seahawks, who swept the team this season, lost to the San Francisco 49ers and the Arizona Cardinals, two arch-rivals in the final stage of the season.

From this angle, you can see how rare and rare the "perfect season" created by the San Francisco 49ers last season, the more fierce the competition becomes, the more fierce the confrontation, and the more difficult it is to win under the severe test of physical strength and energy.

Then, the entire Western District of the League of Nations changed.

The 12-3 Seattle Seahawks, the 11-4 San Francisco 49ers, the 10-5 Arizona Cardinals, and the 7-8 St. Louis Rams.

With the exception of the St. Louis Rams, all three teams are qualified for the playoffs, and similar to the National League South, the comparison of the final wins and losses in the National League West could also change the playoff landscape for the entire league, from the top four seeds to the Wild Card spots.

This also makes the final week of the regular season even more important, as anything can happen.

The Seattle Seahawks will continue to host the St. Louis Rams.

The Arizona Cardinals will return home to face the San Francisco 49ers.

What is certain is that the Seattle Seahawks, who currently have the best record, are still in the driver's seat, and as long as they can win, then they can claim the title of the National League West Champion and the National League Top Seed, while the result of the other game will not affect them, and the team will remain the biggest favourites to win the National League.

But no one can ignore that the St. Louis Rams are the best at fighting in the division, and they are also the best at disrupting the situation, and they have always been able to inadvertently make their rivals in the same district fiercely welcome the slap in the face, and continue to prove that they are an important player to be reckoned with in the Western Division of the National League.

For reference, in this season's division civil war, the St. Louis Rams are two wins and three losses, and when they faced the Seattle Seahawks in the eighth week of the regular season, they also made the opponent struggle until the last minute, and finally lost the game with a score of "9:14"; In addition, in the six games against the Seattle Seahawks in the past three seasons, the St. Louis Rams have two wins and four losses.

So what if the Seattle Seahawks capsized in the gutter at the last minute, lost their last regular season game, and lost their third straight divisional civil war? What will happen to the Western District of the League of Nations?

The first possibility is that the San Francisco 49ers win, then according to the rules of the league, first compare each other's records, then compare the divisional records, and then compare the records against the same opponents...... Ranked in this order until the rankings are determined, the San Francisco 49ers will replace the Seattle Seahawks as the champions of the National League West and will also compete with the champions of the National League South for the National League No. 1 and No. 2 seeds.

The second possibility is that if the Arizona Cardinals win, then the Seattle Seahawks will successfully hold on to the division title and the top seed in the National League, while the San Francisco 49ers and Arizona Cardinals will need to list the rankings according to the league's playoff rules - that is, the aforementioned San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks will play the final train to the playoffs with the advantage of the division record.

At this time, in the first half of the regular season, Lu Ke lost three games due to injury to the Seattle Seahawks and St. Louis Rams in two intra-divisional matchups, and the weight suddenly became prominent.

In fact, things seem to be very complicated, but they are not that complicated.

For the Seattle Seahawks, victory is a matter of success and defeat depends on the face of the opponent, but regardless of the outcome, they have already secured a playoff spot ahead of schedule.

For the San Francisco 49ers, a victory would have a chance to reverse the game, and a defeat would be a direct exit, and all efforts of the season would come to an abrupt end.

For the Arizona Cardinals, defeat is all for nothing, victory is a last-minute comeback, and all the stories of the 2013 season will be rewritten.

Obviously, neither the San Francisco 49ers nor the Arizona Cardinals can afford to lose. This is the true meaning of the battle of life and death!
