Niners 2012 schedule...

Willisfn4life · 2012-03-28T10:25:03-07:00

Home: Arizona Cardinals St. Louis Rams Seattle Seahawks Chicago Bears Detriot Lions New York Giants Buffalo Bills Miami Dolphins Away: New York Jets New England Patriots New Orleans Saints Minnesota Vikings Green Bay Packers Seattle Seahawks St. Lous Rams Arizona Cardinals That schedule is just brutal. We have to play arguably the three best quraterbacks in the NFL in their house. Then the Jets should be much improved and contend for a playoff spot. We play other potential playoff contenders or NFC championship contenders in Chicago, Detriot, The Giants. Bills will be much improved and may build off last years early season success. I think that if you overcome these kinds of schedules then it prepares you for those tough playoff games but it just sucks when you have had such a miserable decade then you have that one magical season and the year following you have to contend with a schedule like this. Are any of you worried about this schedule? What do you predict the outcome to be, record wise?

16-0. Those teams need to be worried about us, not the other way around.

Every year is different and you have to wait to see how things play out. Everyone thought last years schedule was going to be tough because we played the NFC east. Look how that division turned out.

It's got to be the toughest away schedule I've seen in years. But, a great defense is a great equalizer and a full off-season will make all the difference in the world to the offense. I can easily see them winning five or six or those away games and sweeping their home games. This is Harbaugh's first year of really being able to plan a season.

We'll be better prepared this season, but we've made some additions to our locker room (Moss, Jacobs) that have the potential to be distractions. Hopefully that proves not to be the case and we improve on last year, although record-wise I think we'll be lucky to hit 12-4 with that road schedule. My best guess is an optimistic 11-5, win the division but no bye week.

12-4. If we were a bad team I would be worried but this team is good enough to compete with the elite teams of the NFL.

Bring it.

I don't get the fans that complain and say we will be 8 - 8 at best because of our schedule. If you want to be good you have to beat the best.
