When did I ever say that we match up better with SF than Philly? I'll explain it again for you....since we obviously would have to play both, I'd rather lose to SF early than late if it meant a better chance of a new HC....I don't want another 45-10 like embarrassment to SF saving his job, just because we reached the NFCCG. And BTW, this is year eight (8) for Dak and this team is loaded with veterans....its sad at this point if we really need to be worried about "team growth"....teams like Philly rebuild on the fly now....sometimes bottoming out, and doing it right back over again. So are we on a thirty (30) year rebuilding plan?
Parsons, bell, bland, lamb, pollard, Ferguson and countless others of our core are all younger players / vets who have never gone on a deep run in the post season. championship teams for the most part aren’t made overnight- typically, with some exceptions they are teams who get in the post season consistently year in year out and get enough bites at the apple to finally bust through and win it all- McCarthy is building that type of team here.
Look at Baltimore, Philly, packers w rodgers, drew Brees saints, etc. so yes team’s learning how to win and growing together to become champions is a real thing. You can ***** and moan ab him all you want but getting to a championship game would be a huge milestone for this group even while we strive for and want more.
And we don’t “obviously” have to play both…there’s a good chance we would but not playing San Fran until the championship game means a team like Detroit has a crack to eliminate them before we play them on a game. McCarthy isn’t going anywhere most likely and baring a gigantic collapse or wild card disaster he shouldn’t
