The have waited seven months to avenge their Super Bowl lo s. The defending NFC champions may have to wait a bit longer as California wildfires have ravaged the Bay Area, affecting the air quality in the region and potentially Sunday's NFC West showdown between the 49ers and the . The and Los Angeles Rams, who are scheduled to play on Sunday Night Football in Week 1, could also affected by the air quality in the area.The NFL is planning to play both games as scheduled as of Saturday night but , per Pro Football Talk. The Victor Gonzalez Jersey decision to potentially postpone the game is tricky, the actual numbers on the official Air Quality Index website haven't been meshing with the forecast."For example, Inglewood's current reading gro sly exceeds the forecast for Saturday of 87," Mike Florio wrote. "And there's no forecast yet available for Sunday, which seems ominous given the current number."Those actual measurements are far above the estimates, which means both the Cardinals-49ers and Cowboys-Rams games could be in jeopardy if this is the situation Sunday. head coach Sean McVay reiterated Friday the Cowboys-Rams game will be played, despite the AQI playing a factor."We did check that out and things are looking good," McVay said. "So, we'll be in good shape. That shouldn't be an i sue for us."Obviously still foggy at Levis Stadium right now. For what its worth, air quality index via AirNow app is at 171. Of course, and league have different measurements. But regardle s, if number stays below 200 as it is now, game will go off as planned... Nick Wagoner (@nwagoner) 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan was also asked about the potential of the game being postponed or being moved to an alternate site, perhaps shifting the Week 1 tilt to Arizona and rescheduling the Week 16 game to San Francisco. Shanahan was nonchalant regarding the weather conditions, and hasn't been in contact with the NFL regarding a potential contingency plan."I'm not sure. I try not to worry about things I'm not involved in," Shanahan said. "So, I'm just trying to get our team ready to play this game. I'm sure that the NFL has had some discu sions with other people, not any coaches, I don't think. Not Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury or I. So, we're just getting ready for this game."If (the Air Quality Index) is at 200, I know that's when they'll decide whether we play or not, how to go forward with that, but I'm not really sure of the contingency plans. So, we'll just see what happens. Hopefully it won't get there. Hopefully it'll be safe, but we've got to see what the wind does."If the 49ers and Cardinals do play, status for the game is in question. Coleman has a sickle cell trait that makes him sensitive to air pollution and low oxygen levels, which caused him to mi s practice Friday. If the AQI is over 150, Coleman's status for the game is up in the air -- but the decision is his whether he wants to play or not."I know when it is up to 150, that's when it can affect some people with different conditions. So, that's something that Tevin, it'll be a personal decision when he gets there. It's not just an automatic 'no,'" Shanahan said. "Similar to when you play in high altitude and stuff like that, it's not an automatic 'no.' That's stuff you've got to discu s with the doctor and be comfortable with, dealing with oxygen tanks and things there can help."But talking to Tevin, I've been through some situations with him before, dealing with things like playing in Denver and stuff. Tevin will do what's right for him, what's safe. I know he's going to want to play extremely hard and be out there. I know that it kills him not to be, but I also know Tevin will make the right decision. I know our doctors will help him with that."The decision for the Cardinals-49ers and Cowboys-Rams games will come down to the wire, banking on a favorable forecast for Sunday. If the Air Quality Index doesn't decrease, the fates of these games being played Sunday are in serious doubt and contingency plans may have to be forwarded for each matchup. Walker Buehler Jersey
