Former NFL MVP Kurt Warner Discusses Outlook For 49ers, Raiders
Watch CBS News
At first glance it seems that the Packers and 49ers will both be at full strength for the match up Sunday. However, San Francisco will be without several players and will need to hold the fort until they get back their full roster.
San Francisco faced some interesting decisions when deciding who to keep and who to let go when cutting down their roster to 53 players. After an offseason and four preseason games to evaluate, the team has named its roster for the 2013 season, and there were two players let go that are of note for two very different reasons.
Two teams looking to erase the thoughts of 2012 are the 49ers and Packers. While the 49ers are trying to get back to the Super Bowl, the Packers are facing the team that not only ended their 2012 season, but did so in a rout. Both teams are talented and the winner will be the team to beat in the NFL after week 1.
For Dan Bunz, who wore No. 57 on two Super Bowl champion teams, the NFL's decision to settle a head-injury lawsuit means he could one day receive money to pay for treatment for his career of hard hits.
Teams squared off against one another for the first time this season, often at full speed, and occasionally featuring first team offensive sets.
