The San Francisco 49ers comfortably beat the Washington Commanders 27-10, pulling away in the second half for a needed victory, which helped them clinch the No. 1 seed on Sunday.
In the win, the 49ers overcame a sluggish first half, marked by red zone struggles, to win by double digits, as they forced turnovers defensively, while executing well on long, sustained drives in the second half.
The 49ers will now head to the playoffs for the fourth time in five years, where they’ve reached at least the NFC Championship game every time.
