I would welcome being the worst team in the playoffs because it would mean we aren't the best team NOT in the playoffs
like when we lost to ATL and they knocked us out of the playoffs. Damn you hearst!

It's funny, they always rate the NFC West representative as being the worst in the playoffs, yet over the entire (PAST) decade EVERY NFC WEST REPRESENTATIVE HAS ADVANCED TO THE DIVISIONAL ROUND! (Yup, either by winning a 1st/2nd bye or a wildcard matchup in week one of the playoffs; as well as 3 Superbowl appearances.)
-NFC West has been tied with the NFC East for the most SB appearances/playoff-wins/wildcard births, than any other NFC division this decade!
Crazy fact everybody seems to overlook, year-after-year...

If the Niners can win tomorrow night, they will gained a game on the entire division. The Cardinals looked awful against the Falcons like we did against them last year, and the Rams are really just that bad. Apparently the Coach Carroll charisma lasted one week.
9-7 or 10-6 still look like likely season totals. And once the playoffs start, anything can happen.

actually--and i could be wrong--but even if we win tomorrow, i think we'll be in 3rd, since both AZ and SEA have division wins.

could very well be a sub .500 team making the playoffs this year due to our division.

Were you just listening to John Clayton? He predicted the division winner would be 7-9 or 8-8 and that team would likely be the Seahawks because of Matt Hasselbeck.

87% of teams that start out 0-2 do not make the playoffs. If we lose tonight, our playoff "run" is more dependent on the rest of the division's demise rather than our own success as a team.
I dont know about you, but I dont want this team to take a back door into the playoffs only to be trounced in the opening round. It's time to make a god damn statement in this league. It's been almost a decade since our last playoff appearance.

You can throw that 0-2 stat right out the window. It isn't going to apply to the NFC West this year. We have three rebuilding teams to compete with. We're far and away the most complete team in the division, and whether we start 0-2 tonight or not, that fact isn't going to change. The NFL gave us a hard start to the season, but it isn't going to be enough to keep us out of the playoffs this year.
