I am positive the 49ers will be better than 8-8. This team is much better than a 500 team. I still believe the Seahawks are the best team in the NFC, but things will be more evenly matched once the 49ers get Smith and Bowman back. I would say the 49ers, Seahawks, and Saints are the class of the NFC, but there are some other teams that are capable of stringing some wins together and will prove tough down the road, the Falcons and Eagles are the two that come to mind. Also cannot forget Cardinals. They made a strong run towards the end of last season. I am not sure if the 49ers secondary is going to be better than everyone thought they would be, but Romo definitely helped out.
Don't forget about the Panthers. That D is brutal, and now they have a true No. 1 Receiver for Newton.
The thing from yesterday's 49ers/Cowboys game I was most impressed with was how Carlos Hyde ran the ball for the 49ers. It looks like they finally have a ball carrier that could eventually replace Gore, and play right beside him in the lineup without loosing anything. He is fast and agile for a big man. I immediately looked for him to add him to my team, only to find Njaco has him!
I think 8-8 is selling us short. Even in its current state the D is better than most D's.
Manning is tearing the Colts a new Butthole.
I agree...beating up a woman is unacceptable and in his case, he should been given the same face-punch from every member of his team, as he gave his girlfriend, right before they threw him out the door.In other news, holy hell Ray Rice, that is just not on. Glad to see him gone for good...
Mathew Stafford is proving that he will never be anything great in the NFL. Sure he throws for 5000 yards in a season and 35 TDs, but what does it matter when you can't win. He has been told by many that he needs to correct somethings and should work with a QB Coach and he blows them off. What a joke.
Oh and go 49ers!
