In case you missed it yesterday, I conducted a Google+ Hangout with the folks at Field Gulls. In addition to that video, I shot some preview video of the game independently. Originally I was planning on five or six minutes, but it quickly turned into ten minutes before I knew what had happened. I suppose that's what happens when the 49ers are facing a fairly sizable rival.

The video covers the playoff implications, a quick look back at the last game, and a look at a few pertinent storylines for this weekend. And I did all this without getting into Harbaugh vs. Carroll. The storyline that the NFL and media would like to see emerge is a Colin Kaepernick vs. Russell Wilson rivalry. The Tom Brady-Peyton Manning storyline does not have much time left, so we need another QB rivalry, right?

I'll be back with a recap video on Monday, but in the meantime, check out the video, and subscribe to the Niners Nation YouTube channel. If you subscribe, any videos I make will be emailed to you when they go live.
