Everybody say's were young no exp, well i think JJ said it loud and clear. THAT'S what i pay u 5 mill a year for Bill the exp YOU have in getting the job done leaning on YOUR exp in these kind's of game's, leaning on YOU to show us how we get to were we want to go. YOU have been there before none of these guys have.

Umm... only 2 teams get byes.

Back in 1988 there were only five playoff teams per conference. All three division winners therefore earned byes.

That's to bad that you don't "expect anything beyond"...

You Must Expect...


Because if you don't expect...you have nothing to look for...

Expectations are good for you! Watch and see...

I admire your optimism but unfortunately I don't share in it. I think we're "one and done" in the playoffs just like '03.

Correct....only 3 divisions and 28 teams.

Here's the breakdown in the NFC...


Central - Chicago 12-4
West - SF 10-6 wins on tie-breakers over Rams
East - Philthy 10-6 wins on tie-breakers over Gnats

SF conference record - 8-4
Philthy conference record - 8-4

SF beat Minnesota in regular season 24-21
Philthy loses to Minesota in regular season 23-21

SF plays at home due to common opponent tie-breaker.

Rams win tiebreaker over Gnats.

Playoffs...

Minnesota 11-5 hosts LA Rams 10-6 in wild card. Vikings win 28-17.

Minnesota goes to SF...SF wins 34-9
Philthy travels to Chicago...Chicago wins 20-12

SF travels to Chicago...SF wins 28-3

SF defeats Cincinnati in SB...20-16

There is nothing on this team character or guts wise that makes me think they will make it outta the first round.

Yep!

Don't forget GREAT coaching and creativity. We lack these things.

Yep x2!

This team has no nuts and no leadership. They may grab one playoff win, but I don't expect anything beyond that.

Yep x3!

This team will show glimpses for sure but don't put to much stock in them because they will let you down.

The only way I start to trust them again is if they get to the Super Bowl this year. Next year the slate is clean.

I am going to laugh if Detroit walks up and down the field on our defense.

That San Francisco team also had a core group of veterans at key position who were accustomed to winning in the post-season.

Next.

The NFC has never been so weak. Last year was one of the weakest ever, and that at least had very good Seattle and Carolina teams. This year it's pure garbage.

It's like Bill tried to say in the press conference today, who in the NFC scares you? No one does. We could beat any one of those teams on the road, and we could also walk in and get blown out. But I like this team's chances, I refuse to drink the haterade. It's a flawed team, but it is still correctable.

I'm with Bill, we can have a postmortum when the season is over. Right now, this team still has a pulse and I think they'll make some noise.

Should have beaten Seattle on their home turf last year, but that was then.

If I live long enough I look forward to the post-Jerry Jones as GM era. That's pretty bleek huh!
