No one got kneecapped in the run-up to Saturday night's game between the Packers and 49ers, but there were still a lot of people watching to see what happened at Levi's Stadium. According to Fox, via Josh Dubow of the Associated Press, the 49ers' 24-21 win is projected to be the most watched Saturday telecast on any network since the 1994 Winter Olympics.

Averaging an impressive 37.5 million viewers and peaking at 40.9 million, the 49ers' victory over the Packers captured the attention of fans across the nation. These viewership numbers surpassed last season's Saturday night divisional round game between the Giants and the Eagles by a significant 31 percent.

The highly-anticipated clash saw the 49ers mount a remarkable comeback in the late stages of the game, securing a thrilling win against the Packers. The excitement and intensity of the matchup contributed to the significant increase in viewership compared to previous similar games.

Interestingly, this marks the highest number of viewers for a Saturday telecast since the 1994 Winter Olympics. During those Olympics, the nation was captivated by the infamous attack on figure skater Nancy Kerrigan, orchestrated by the ex-husband of her on-ice rival, Tonya Harding.

While this game provided thrilling entertainment for football fans, it also set a new benchmark for viewership on a Saturday night. Unfortunately, there are no more Saturday games scheduled for this postseason, which means the opportunity to surpass these impressive numbers will have to wait.

As the 49ers celebrate their hard-earned victory, the team can also bask in the knowledge that their game caught the attention of millions, solidifying their place in Saturday night football history.
