Who are the 49ers rivals?

Answer 1

In the days of the Steel Curtain, the Steelers were huge rivals with the Raiders meeting them several seasons in a row in the playoffs. They don't play as much anymore partly because the Raiders miss the playoffs more frequently. The Raiders division rivals include the Chiefs, Broncos and Chargers. These games have lately been a letdown in terms of intensity because of the Raiders consistent losing record. Rivalry implies competition, and the Raiders haven't been good enough to genuinely compete with anyone since 2002. The so called "Rivalry Games" don't really mean anything anymore. They could again matter someday when Oakland has more talent and playoff hopes on the line however. All their high draft picks have to kick in sooner or later.

Answer 2

The Kansas City Chiefs, the Denver Bronco, the San Diego Chargers, and the San Francisco 49ers.

Answer 3

The Rams, Seahawks, Cardinals, and Raiders.
