They've met 42 times in the regular season. Both teams have won 21 games.
They've met 8 times in the postseason. Both teams have won 4 games.
Obviously the regular season tie will be go in one's team favor after TNF, but #s that made me go, 'Wow. That's pedicular.'
True be told-as a 43 YOA dude-I consider the 49ers to be our 3rd biggest rival after Philly & Dallas. Yes, I put SF ahead of WFT because 1) the Giants historically own WFT & 2) WFT has sucked for awhile. Also, the Giants-SF playoff games have been so intense & joyous/heartbreaking that I remember where I watched each game & who was watching with me.
I often wonder what would have happened during the 1990 NFC championship game,remember Walsh had retired at that point.
Parcells vs Seifert was not even close.

That's silly.
Seifert was good, and underrated for sure mostly because of who he was replacing.
There's no '80s dynasty without Seifert coaching up those DBs, and being a solid DC. Nobody else to my knowledge was fielding loaded secondaries in those days like they do now.
Seifert kept Marino from getting a ring as much as anyone else in that organization. All 4 starting DBs to the pro bowl. How often has that happened?
