This begs the question.... is the 49ers only 13-4 because their schedule has been this bad, or are they actually really this good? 0-1 against still remaining teams.

Personally, they pass all the eye test. Their QB has been comfortable doing what he's been doing. scrambling pretty well tho that Seattle pass rush isn't some juggernaut. Their defense is smash, and Nick Bosa is elite - and they manhandled our offensive line last year altho not sure what we're gonna see this year. They have lots of stars on offense and Purdy can just pick and choose his place to go much of the times without much suppression. However, something tells me they're not gonna have it this easy all the way to a Super Bowl. There's bound to be a team that's gonna show a hand that's different than what the Seahawks or the Cardinals show.

I'm not saying they're like Tampa - nobody with half a brain would claim that, but I just find it hard to fathom they're winning this easily every week - because not even Kansas City is winning as easily, but pretty much everyone has a stronger schedule. They played none of the NFC or AFC elites.

I feel like this is a game that's hard to figure out. If they win, then all the analysts are right... they really are that good no matter who they play. I probably won't be too upset in that case if losing to a superior team.

More than ever the old formula of "A beat B, B beat C, therefor A would beat C" does not hold. Can't even really tell much game to game anymore.

San Fran is solid from top to bottom. They have a lot of weapons with a stout defense no matter who the QB is. Dallas can win but they have to be on their A-game next Sunday. I would much rather face Philthy next but it is what it is at this point. I hope Dallas stays focused and not feel overconfident after knocking out Brady.

This is a bad matchup for Dallas but they can win as long as they stay hungry.

The Niners are good, but they've also beat up a lot of bad teams. Both can be true.

Don't let them just run the ball down your throats and force the rookie QB to beat you. He's been good, and might do it, but make him do it.

Scoring some points on their stout defense wouldn't hurt, either.

Prescott is Better than Purdy

The rest is window dressing. We win easy if the Defense Smash the Boom Box!!
