The focus of the season for all 32 teams in the NFL is the same.

Win the Super Bowl.

That seems to be the primary concern for Mike McCarthy as we head in to next week against the Cardinals.

But when you truly have transcendent players in the NFL. Players like Lamb, Parsons, Diggs, Martin, Pollard. Throw in Demarcus Lawrence and LVE, plus Stephon Gilmore, plus Osa Odigizuwa, guy is a beast. I've been saying it since way back, he's going to be good. I saw it in the first San Fransisco game: he was one of the only players who showed up, whereas our very own Micah Parsons disappeared that game. But there we were, faced up with the biggest of the big boys, and very likely also in the mix for the top teams, from maybe the best to arguably the second or third best. But make no mistake, San Fransisco has a squad that's also going to be around in the playoffs and be tough to beat every year for at least the next few years.

But this year, it just seems like something has clicked for Mike McCarthy. He sees the disadvantage we bring in just overall athleticism, with players like Parsons just flying all over the field, and safeties coming at you left and right instead of line backers. It's a trip to watch.

But we've had players like Emmitt and Troy and Deion, but that was an older era. This has all the elements to be the year. Your team is clicking on all cylinders, you already kinda shut down their offense last year. You can bet that San Fran will have studied Quinn in the off-season, but Quinn is smart enough to see that.
Dak is coming together in his own right this season. Maybe it's too early, and if he has a bad game fans will lose their minds, but then we wouldn't have anything to criticize.

I just feel like something has clicked with McCarthy and that there truly is a window right now, where we really are in the top 5 teams easy. So it's now or never. Seize everything.
