Did we upgrade the secondary?

That is the difference between us, and the rest of the NFC West division this year. Each team added difference-makers. We didn't.

While I agree that the 9ers did not add any difference makers on D, they did bring in some heady players who may develop into a better unit. Edwards has a chance to be a difference maker on offense but it's too early to tell. If you hate Smith you probably think it doesn't matter who the WRs are, but if Smith shines in Harbaugh's system then the WRs will likely look good (can't look much worse than last year!).

As far as the rest of the west goes, they all have their own issues and new coaching staffs...so who knows?

Yup the pencil neck who made sure everybody knew they weren't good enough. There's really a couple parallels I could pull out of it but who cares.

I think Braylon could be a difference maker but at the same time there was a reason the Jets chose Santonio Holmes and Plaxico Burress over him and it wasn't about character either.
