Behind Enemy Lines: Previewing matchup between Washington vs. San Francisco 49ers

With a couple of 5-7 teams that are going to need to do everything they can over the next few weeks in order to keep their seasons alive heading into the playoffs, the game between the Washington Football Team and San Francisco 49ers holds some huge importance on Sunday.

The 49ers have been slipping as of late, dropping four of their last five games and falling into last place in the NFC West. Meanwhile, Washington is as hot as they’ve been in years, riding a three-game winning streak with a real chance at making the playoffs. So what can we expect to see when these two teams meet on Sunday? Will Washington’s defense be too much for Nick Mullens, or will offensive mastermind Kyle Shanahan be able to scheme up something that knows Washington off of the healer that they’ve been on?

To preview this, we had a chat with Kyle Madson, of Niners Wire, to preview it all.
