Hawks in the NFL - Divisional Round

We’re through the Divisional Round in the NFL Playoffs and we’re down to a single player remaining. Let’s go in reverse order again, starting in San Francisco Santa Clara.

George Kittle and Chauncey Golston

Kittle is one of two survivors after what was a brutal weekend for former Iowa players. He was crucial to San Francisco’s 19-12 slugfest of a win over Dallas, catching all 5 of his targets for 95 yards as the 49ers move to the NFC Championship Game for the third time in four years. He was vital to San Francisco’s run game that eventually wore Dallas down, and he was involved in perhaps the play of the weekend, a huge 30-yard reception in the third quarter on a drive that ended in their lone touchdown of the day.
