and no way San Diego is better than us

We can be better than SD but what's 6/7? I still don't think we are top 5. Those teams have a foundation they are locked in and, turnovers aside, can definitely handle a team that runs the ball well but only throws for 100-200 yards. However, we do score points but the 1-4 teams have NO problem scoring more points.

don't curr. i wish we were lower than that.

Does Power rankings even matter in the NFL?.....

I'm surprised by how many rankings having the Chargers ahead of us. And the Saints beat the worst team in football, does that justify the climb? In the previous week they got crushed by the Bucs.

No suprise there. I suppose we should worry a bit more about Pittsburg though.

Whoa bud! one game at a time. Let's think about getting the win against the Browns and think about the next game after that.

No power rankings dont matter but its cool to see where these experts rank us. Its just for fun

I don't think it does really. Just a guage for the gamblers IMO.

No, they don't mean a damn thing...

That said, for the better part of a decade, the power rankings were nothing more than a reminder of just how dismal our beloved 49ers were...

Not the case now.

And that is why anybody here is even looking at the power rankings or talking about them... simply because it's the last thing anybody wanted to do for the past 9 seasons!

Just enjoy it.

We have a not played a team with a high powered passing attack (Green Bay, New England, Houston, Buffalo for example).....and if you look at the rest of our schedule we aren't going to play an elite passing team - not until the playoffs. Cowboys passing game was the best we have faced all year and we lost because their passing overcame us. Philadelphia also, we were getting ripped, bu luckily came back. Looking at the playoffs, Dallas could very well win their division, along with the Packers, and Saints. Wild cards Atlanta, probably. Besides Dallas our only loss, we haven't played and will not play any of these teams for the rest of the regular season. 49ers exact power ranking is difficult to assess, however they are at least in the top 8 or 9.

He also had the Giants and Cowboys ahead of us... Honestly, I listen to the Herd every day and I can't even figure out why. This guy is an absolute Moron, and I'm not speaking from my Niner bias at all! It's not just football..... at the end of the day, Cowturd is a ratings guy who has very little sports knowledge to speak of and who's own homerism shines through every time the guy speaks... I'm pretty sure he would blow Romo for ratings, and probably just for the thrill of it..... Ugh.

Well, stop listening to him then! Magic, your problems are solved.

Enjoy what? Being the top 3rd of a meaningless ranking?.....I guess....But Id rather kick everybody in the shins.....

The Lions were considered to have a high powered passing attack

BLT makes me hungry, but after last night, Flaco and the Ravens they took a big step backwards. And SD is not in the top 10 (doesn't matter that they are in 1st in a crappy Division). Too many of these top ranked teams are long in the tooth and have been getting love because of who they use to be and previous seasons records. Big Ben still has gas in the tank but that Pitt D is not the same as last year.

NO, still dangerous and still no D. We are much more of a complete team and we are better than the team that almost beat them last year
Take away Brady, and we are better than NE.

We are 3 at best and 4 at worst

Believe it faithful

Just enjoy being RELEVANT as opposed to the s**t on somebody's shoe... that's all I'm sayin'!
(And we will continue to kick people in the shins, but no need to kick each other in the shins, get me?)
