Next year's hype....

Yeah going 0-9 in the first 9 games would break a lot of teams in ANY type of sports. Obviously it didn't break this team so I'm not sure where you're getting that from. The team actually got stronger mentally throughout the season. I swear some people are just trying too hard to find something to whine about.

The 49ers played better because they had nothing to lose. (besides getting Jimmy) Let's see how they perform in 2018 when they have high expectations.

Exactly, any other team would've folded with how poor they played in the beginning of the season. The 49ers didn't, which is the total opposite of not mentally tough, just saying. Yes, they had nothing to lose and didn't have to play for a playoff spot which could've lead to some of the players to slack a little and just play to get the season over with but they didn't, they played hard, tough, and played like a team that's fighting for a playoff spot. To me, that's a strong locker room that believed each other and the coaches with a very TOUGH MENTALITY. Next season will be very interesting.

All the hype from the media means s**t as long as the team is hungry and plays like they have something to prove..with confidence and physicality..be humble..Lynch and Shanahan will make sure the team knows you don't score until you score lol

Until you score

Hype means nothing. You either work hard and get better or you listen to the hype and fall on your face.

We are not getting Barkley. Probably wont even get past the 3rd pick with Indy.

We're not getting Barkley, but we should still be hyped about Nelson or Ridley at #10.

Hype doesn't effect well coached teams.

I'd rather go in as underdogs the entire year. I wouldn't want them to be over confident and let other teams be surprised by our play.
I want to catch teams off guard.

I voted bad - we're going to have a lot of young players and an off-season of hype will add pressure they don't need.

The media gonna hype it up. Vegas win total gonna be set around 6 1/2 to 7 wins (it wouldn't be a shocker if they set it higher than 7 wins).

19-0

I think Vegas will be more generous, I'd say 8.5 wins is probably where they'll slot us.

Rams 11.5
Seahawks 9.5
49ers 8.5
Cardinals 5.5

That would be my best guess on handicaps

You might be on it, the media is already hyping it up and some handicappers already have them competing for a playoff spot

This s already happening and the season just ended...some fans from other fan bases and analysts are already on the wagon.

The hyped teams usually fail. Look at the bucs and raiders.

Their QBs can't hold a candle to JG...Winston/Carr barely found their way out of a wet paper bag (this year).
