Dallas Cowboys fans still have the disappointment of Sunday’s blowout loss fresh in their minds, and Kyle Shanahan is pouring salt in those wounds.
It turns out the San Francisco 49ers coach did not wait until the end of the Wild card game to start prepping for the Green Bay Packers.
Shanahan savagely revealed he and his staff began focusing on the Packers matchup midway through the second quarter of Green Bay’s blowout win over the Dallas Cowboys.
“We were already in here. We were doing it that day,” Shanahan said when asked about his team’s preparation timeline for the NFC divisional round matchup. “… Started really focusing on [the Packers] halfway through the second quarter.”
Had the Cowboys somehow come back and won that game, the 49ers’ opponent would have been completely in the air heading into Sunday night.
The 49ers head into the weekend as massive 9.5-point favorites at DraftKings Sportsbook, but Green Bay just showed just how much that does not matter with how they went into AT&T Stadium and manhandled a team that hadn’t lost a home game all season.
