The 49ers did not make themselves available to the media on Sunday. Head coach Jim Harbaugh held a post-game newsconferrence on Monday where he spoke of pride and confidence in his team.
"We have more than enough time to get ready for this team. There's going to be a need for a laser-like focus here. We really need to focus on our task here," Harbaugh said. "It's a big game. It's a great opponent, that's where our thoughts will be."
Harbaugh's team has to defend its home field one more time and said the capacity crowd at Candlestick made a difference.
"Our fans turned that stadium into a fortress. That's as good as it's going to get," he said. "We got 70,000 in a city behind us. It felt good. It felt like an advantage."
Harbaugh was hunkered down at the team's Santa Clara headquarters Sunday afternoon watching the Giants/Packers game with his coaching staff.
