Re: 2007 49ers
- 4th worst team according to Football Outsiders (which strips perception away).
- 4th worst point differential in the league last year.
- Worst point differential in the history of the league for a 7-9 team.
There's basically no arguing that their 7-9 record last year overstated how they played, they played worst than 7-9. Now, they have generally improved but the losses of Antonio Bryant and Norv Turner also need to be remembered when listing their additions.
Have they improved enough to climb to a legitimate 7-9 team - or better ? Well we'll see. But Oakland and Detroit, two of their wins last year, aren't on the schedule. And the two wins they got against Seattle will likely come tougher this year unless Seattle is decimated by injury again.
You could be right - but there's no reason to think that you are.
Well they have a long way to go.I disagree... As much as I hate to say it because of growing up a Cowboys fan and hating the 49ers, I think they will be competitive this year
