The primary storyline for the upcoming season finale in Los Angeles is simple and obvious. If the 49ers win, they are in the playoffs, and if they don’t, they become reliant on the Atlanta Falcons beating the New Orleans Saints to get them in. This is assuredly the main concern for everyone involved, as statistics will take a clear backseat to the final tally on the scoreboard this week.
Having said that, there is an extraordinary milestone on the line in this game. If George Kittle records 35 receiving yards on Sunday, he will pass Hall Of Fame tight end Kellen Winslow Sr.
