Impressive turnaround leads to Super Bowl
fourth time in franchise history.. The defense did allow a couple of big pass plays in the second half but the game was well in hand by then.
Stock up: CB Emmanuel Moseley. Thrown back into the starting lineup after Ahkello Witherspoon got benched against the Vikings, Moseley came up with one of the biggest defensive plays of the game. He intercepted Rodgers late in the first half to set up Mostert’s third TD run that made it 27-0. Moseley will be counted on again in the Super Bowl against the highpowered Chiefs passing game.
Stock down: Garoppolo’s stats. Jimmy Garoppolo threw the ball only eight times against the Packers, the third fewest for a team in a playoff game since at least 1940. Only the Dolphins threw it less in the playoffs with six and seven attempts on the way to the Super Bowl title following the 1973 season. Garoppolo completed six of the throws for 77 yards but was asked to do little with the defense and running game playing so well.
Injured: Coleman left the game with a dislocated shoulder. He underwent an MRI on Monday to determine the severity, but Shanahan said he expects Coleman will have a chance to play. Safety Jaquiski Tartt irritated a rib injury that sidelined him for the final four games of the regular season but should be OK.
