Does playing a West Coast team at 1 give us an edge?

[TrueBlackandBlue]

I know its flimsy but I'm looking for anything to boost my confidence.

[Catalyst]

It can't hurt.

[Growl]

Why do you need a confidence boost?

I trust the team. They believe in themselves and the fans believe in them. Quit doubting.. This is ours to take.

We are the #2 seed for a reason. That's all the confidence you should need.

After a tuff game in the freezing cold and then going on the road to the east coast for the early game does not boad well for the 9ers. Especially when we know we can and have beat them. I have faith, but we know our past. We should win.

[Rise of The Hive]

It didn't seem to hurt the Chargers but at least SF has already played a tough game beforehand .

Don't let the media scare you.

We have a group of players that are not hungry for a Superbowl.

They are starving for one.

[TANTRIC-NINJA]

Remember in the Super Bowl run how inferior most of us thought we were compared to the McNabb Eagles, The Rams?, Patriots?

Panthers are OK!

[CarolinaCoolin]

Seahawks lost to falcons last year in an almost identical scenario.

If I were douchebag Harbaugh I'd be practicing at 10 am PST everyday to be prepared for the east coast kickoff time.

So, no.

Early in the season, against a team that hasn't proven itself, I would be inclined to think it would have an impact.

But the 9'ers are a team that is coming in with a 13-4 record and a proven ability to win on the road. If all the edge we have is a time zone edge then this game is already lost.

[SpeedOFLight]

Just have confidence in our guys. We are 12-4 and won the division. Why is some people so worried about the 49ers? While a good team, we beat them before at their house and now they are coming to ours. I have full confidence in my team. The 49ers should be worried about us.

[Riverboat Ron]

Think the 49ers are staying in Ohio.
