I'm not as optimistic as the OP. I think the CB position has big problems. The offense looks stacked though.

I disagree. When Cully was healthy he was our best CB. Brock was ballin last year and this will be his first year as a full-time starter, he should only improve. Jimmie Ward is a ball hawk and will be better than Carlos in the slot. Time will tell, but I think our secondary will be better this year, definitely more interceptions.

what is the big problem(s)?

Brock is our best CB, we still have cully. Drafted a stud in Ward, safetes are above average starters...

the only things in our way to a championship....are the refs.

Bro... calm your tits

ST punt returner and kick returner??

Back up QB??

Top OLB Aldon Smith could be suspended

Justin Smith playing strong but a year older

Frank Gore wrong side of 30 for a RB

VD- more interested in his ventrex stock value than the team

Blaine Gabbert as a 2 million dollar back up

Navarro Bowman out for most of the season

Two novice centers in Kilgore and Martin

Naw, this team has nothing to worry about, they will steam roll.

Not to mention that our DL is aging and our CBs are below average. Our offense is stacked but that may be offset be a decline on defense. We have gotten used to having one of the top defense in the league. With Bowman and Aldon off the field, our defense is very ordinary on paper.

It may all come down to how young and unproven guys step up to pick up the slack. Carradine could be a star. So could Lemonier..... and Jimmie Ward. These guys to be difference makers to pick up the slack left by Bowman and Aldon.

Lemonier, skuta and whilote filled in nicely

T. Brown and Rogers were our best CBs and we lost both of them and didn't replace them. Culliver showed promise before his injury, but hasn't played a down since. So he's effectively an unknown. Brock played very well as a #3 CB. I have a feeling it will be a different story when he's matched up against the opponents top WR.

People like to hate on Rogers because he was overpaid and sucked in the slot. But he was a solid outside cover guy. Brown was also a very good outside cover corner. He may have lacked ideal size, but he could stick to any receiver like glue.

We have basically gone from NFL starters to unproven backups at both CB spots. There is good reason to be worried.

Meh, they filled in. They didn't dominate like Bowman and Aldon.

Not saying those guys couldn't fill in. But without Bowman and Aldon, who do opponents really have to worry about? Who do they have to game plan for? Willis, Brooks, and maybe Eric Reid. Most opponents have an OL that could handle Justin Smith and RayMac without having to worry about Aldon on the outside.

Since we don't have lock-down CBs, you take out Aldon Smith and our whole pass defense will come crumbling down.

Tank Carradine, Ian Williams and Q. Dial don't count?

Lemonier had pressure everytime, always had the OL backing into the QB, Skuta/Whilote are great tacklers who seem to be near the ball all the time.

we have a good core, you might see only the final result on plays but these guys are good
