They haven't been this good since 1956.

Also, in 1956 they became 6-0 by beating the 9ers at Kezar

what are the odds of this, crazy

Undefeated so far, some spectacular, last-minute comebacks and great feel-good story of the former 0-16 team finally being relevant again after decades of futility. It makes a nice media story.
