The San Francisco 49ers recent 23-19 win over the Philadelphia Eagles earned them a spot in the divisional round of the 2025 NFL Playoffs.
In just a few days, the 49ers will play against the Seattle Seahawks for the NFC Divisional Round. The 49ers have won five Super Bowl championships in the last 44 years. Their Super Bowl wins include Super Bowl XVI in 1982 (Cincinnati Bengals), Super Bowl XIX in 1985 (Miami Dolphins), Super Bowl XXIII in 1989 (Cincinnati Bengals), Super Bowl XXIV in 1990 (Denver Broncos), and Super Bowl XXIX in 1995 (San Diego Chargers).
According to the 49ers website, the Seahawks are the division No. 1 seed, while the 49ers are the “lowest seed in the conference” at No. 6. If the 49ers win Saturday’s game, they will be one game closer to playing at home in Super Bowl LX.
