About 6-7 wins is about right for 2009. I think their analysis leans a bit too much on the skeptical side, but this team is not ready for the playoffs yet.
The Niners did win 7 games last year, but the majority of wins last season were against teams that were crashing and burning late in 2009.
I think the 7 wins were deceptive, and I could see the team improving in play, and yet still only come up with 7 wins this seaon.
Wins are wins in my opinion. But luck and capitalizing on given opportunities is what makes good teams good. I think with a little luck we can be 9-7 or even 6-10. If we have some bad luck I can see 5-7 wins also. But thats what makes the NFL the NFL.
I agree with that. Wins are wins. I laugh when people say "we beat teams that were crashing and burning". SO FREAKING WHAT!?!? Doesn't it say something that we beat them?
I was ecstatic with our comeback win against the Rams. When was the last time we were down two touchdowns and came back to win in the 4th quarter to take the game?
Seriously, I understand why people say we deserve to be ranked in the 20's because we need to prove ourselves. Yet, when we win, some people like to say, that we were lucky to win against a bad team like that. Dude, a win is a win, I'll take it. What, would you rather we win prettily? Give me a break guys. I want to win.
Our wins were not deceptive. We worked harder than the other teams for those wins. Plus, we were the only ones to score more than 24 on the Redskins. Let me guess, rebuttals will be: it was the last game of the season. I highly doubt the Redskins were okay with losing.
