When was the last time the 49ers reached the NFC Championship game?

The San Francisco 49ers are one of the most successful franchises in the history of the NFL, having won five Super Bowls and appeared in seven. They are also the team with the most appearances in the NFC Championship game, the game that determines who will represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. The 49ers have reached the NFC Championship game 19 times, more than any other team in the league.

The NFC Championship game is one of the most prestigious and exciting events in the NFL, as it showcases the best teams in the conference and sets the stage for the ultimate prize, the Super Bowl. The 49ers and the Lions have both earned their spot in this game, and they will give their best to make history and advance to the biggest game of the year. It will be a clash of styles, a clash of cultures, and a clash of legends. It will be a game to remember.

But when was the last time the 49ers reached the NFC Championship game?

The last time the 49ers reached the NFC Championship game was in the 2023 season, when they faced the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field on January 21, 2024. The game was a nail-biter, as the 49ers trailed by 11 points in the fourth quarter, but rallied to tie the game with a touchdown and a two-point conversion. The game went into overtime, and the 49ers won on a 45-yard field goal by Robbie Gould, sending them to their 19th NFC Championship game1

The 49ers will host the Detroit Lions, who are making their first NFC Championship game appearance since 1992, at Levi’s Stadium. The 49ers are the top seed in the NFC and the favorites to win the game, as they have a balanced offense led by MVP candidate Brock Purdy and a dominant defense featuring Nick Bosa and Fred Warner. The Lions, however, are the Cinderella story of the season, as they have overcome injuries and adversity to reach the conference title game for the first time ever, behind the stellar play of Jared Goff and Jeff Okudah.

Court throws out conviction after judge says Black man 'looks like a criminal to me'

An appeals court says a Detroit federal judge violated the rights of a Black man when he said in court, ‘This guy looks like a criminal to me DETROIT -- An appeals court on Thursday overturned the drug conviction of a Black man, saying his rights were violated by a Detroit federal judge who was upset over delays in the case and declared: “This guy looks like a criminal to me.” “Such remarks are wholly incompatible with the fair administration of justice,” the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said. U.S. District Judge Stephen Murphy III, who is white, apologized nearly two years later when the case against Leron Liggins finally was ready for trial. He explained that he was mad at the time “and I regret it.” Nonetheless, the appeals court said Murphy should have removed himself as Liggins' attorney had requested. The court threw out a heroin distribution conviction and 10-year prison sentence and ordered a new trial with a different judge . Allowing the conviction to stand “wou

Accountant's testimony sprawls into a 4th day at Trump business fraud trial in New York

An accountant who prepared Donald Trump’s financial statements is back on the witness stand for a fourth day in the New York civil trial examining whether the former president exaggerated his wealth NEW YORK -- An accountant who prepared Donald Trump's financial statements was back on the witness stand for a fourth day Thursday in the New York civil fraud trial examining whether the former president exaggerated his wealth. Trump himself didn't attend the proceedings Thursday, after choosing to be there — and avail himself of the news cameras waiting outside — for the three prior days. The business fraud trial stems from New York Attorney General Letitia James' lawsuit alleging that Trump and his business ginned up financial statements that vastly overvalued Trump Tower, Mar-a-Lago and other assets. Trump denies any wrongdoing and says James, a Democrat, is just trying to damage his 2024 presidential campaign. He's leading the Republican field. The non-jury trial concer
