How Week 14 games impact San Francisco's NFC seeding, postseason path, and key rooting interests in a tight playoff race.

San Francisco gets to No. 6 no matter how this game finishes. The 49ers would move ahead of the 8-4-1 Packers if Chicago wins. They'd jump over the No. 7 seed 9-4 Bears to No. 6 if Green Bay wins.
