My Prediction for the 49ers' Offense in 2010

I can't wait to see CJ Spiller / Jordan Shipley added to this offense.

Since this is the first year of continuity for the offense in 5+ years we will see significant progress in our play making ability.

True, but our defense is better.

I'm kind of hesitant about this. We'll be operating in the same system, but we won't be running the same offense. This isn't the first time we've run in the same system two years in a row. We spent half the year essentially as a power running team and half the year in the spread. I don't think we'll be doing either of those things this year. Same system, some of the plays will stay the same, but not really the same offense (or a year already "in" an offense already accrued), imo.

But it is the same offense. Jimmy Raye didnt just trade in his playbook for another one. The terminology and playbook are the same. Hill was just limited in what he could execute.

Terminology is the biggie. NFL offenses are extremely complex, have a lot of variances, and added all up, are hundreds of pages thick. Scheme always evolves throughout the season. If it didn't, every team would end up like the lions

Not much to really compare, those teams have completely different types of players. I think comparing them is useless.

He's just just talking offense.

They had arguably the best TE in the game, We have arguably the best TE in the league
They had a stud at RB, We have a stud at RB
The had a good numher one receiver, we have (at very least) a good number one receiver.

We still need the QB and line play.

The comparison is valid.
