NFL Week 13 burning questions: Would healthy 49ers be playoff nightmare?

We're entering the home stretch of the NFL season, and the 49ers aren't dead yet.

By completing their season sweep of the Los Angeles Rams, the 49ers move to 5-6 and are in the thick of the NFC playoff race as they continue to get healthy. With Jimmy Garoppolo and George Kittle still on the mend, the 49ers are doing their best to keep the ship afloat until their leaders can return late in the season.

Elsewhere, Tom Brady and the Buccaneers continue to struggle and the finger-pointing from Bruce Arians isn't going to help matters. In Philly, Carson Wentz has no weapons, no time to throw and his head coach isn't helping him, putting the Eagles in a precarious position. Down in New Orleans, the wins are nice but has Taysom Hill proved he's the answer to life without Drew Brees?

Let's dive into the hottest questions around the NFL and see if we can make sense of the wreckage ahead of Week 13.
