49ers' Nick Bosa On Comeback Win vs. Packers: 'We Needed a Game Like That'

San Francisco 49ers defensive end Nick Bosa was relieved after the team's narrow 24-21 win over the Green Bay Packers in the divisional round on Saturday.

"We needed a game like that," Bosa told reporters after the win. "We just hadn't come from behind in a while. It's a really good team, really good coaching, just helps you get more battle-tested."

The 49ers trailed 21-14 entering the fourth quarter, which has typically been a tall task for the team to overcome. San Francisco entered the game with a record of 0-30 when trailing by at least five points in the final quarter under head coach Kyle Shanahan, per the broadcast.

Shanahan's team was able to score the go-ahead touchdown with just over one minute remaining in the game, giving the 49ers a three-point lead. On the Packers' ensuing drive, quarterback Jordan Love fired a deep pass that was intercepted by linebacker Dre Greenlaw to secure the victory.

San Francisco's defensive line, which accumulated 48 sacks in the regular season, was unable to take down Love on Saturday night. Bosa only recorded three tackles. The 26-year-old will likely return to form in the NFC Championship game after racking up 10.5 sacks in 17 appearances in 2023.

Bosa and the 49ers will await the winner of Sunday's matchup between the Detroit Lions and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. San Francisco is going to attempt to return to the Super Bowl for the first time since the 2019 season.
