If we didn't have Singletary and his clowns running the show last season, we would have won the West. I honestly believe Singletary costed us 2-3 games last year, if not more.

All the talk is about Sam Bradford but the Rams have a very good defense. As much as the offense improved with Bradford at QB, the defense made even greater strides.

If Hasselback stays in Seattle, the 49ers may not even finish second. Just my opinion...too many new pieces to put in place and too many holes on both sides of the ball. 8 wins would be a very good showing by Harbaugh and Co.

You need a decent QB to win anything in this league. A luxury that the 49ers do not have which makes them a long shot in winning the division. I will be suprised if they finish second. Rams and Seahawks are the favorites

You can win the NFC West without a good QB. Seattle did it last year.

Exactly. They also did it with a new coaching staff. One of the reasons people think we wont win it this year.

Lions win the North?

I think they are going to have a good season, but not that good!

there will not be a NFC west team in the wildcard spot.

NFC West: Rams (only distinguished QB in the division)
NFC North: Packers (SB favorites - QB, o-line, pass-rusher, secondary)
NFC South: Bucs (Better defense than Falcons)
NFC East: Giants (More stability and longevity than Mike Vick/Eagles)
NFC Wild Cards: Lions and Falcons (Lions defense

, Falcons offense

)

AFC West: Chargers (only distinguished QB in the division, sorry Cassell)
AFC North: Steelers (they always seem to beat the Ravens)
AFC South: Colts (two words, Peyton Manning)
AFC East: Patriots (see Colts, Tom Brady)
AFC Wild Cards: Jets and Ravens (established teams in divisions with better opponents)

NOTES: I think Mike Vick gets injured early on in the season and the Eagles tank. Same for Drew Brees and the Saints. Houston comes up short, again. The Niners are close but can't beat the Rams in St. Louis. The Chiefs get close too, but the Jets and Ravens are more complete teams than them.

Cassell is much better than Bradford.
