7-7 on Christmas Morning -- I think that's a realistic goal

6-2 over the next nine weeks puts us at 7-7 on Christmas with two division games to play. After that, we go on the road to STL the day after Christmas and come home to play Arizona in week 17.

9-7 or 8-8 wins this division. Does this make sense?

7-7 is realistic.....but only if they start playing well. They are NOT playing well right now.

They lost by 3 or less to three likely NFC playoff teams, being in the lead or tied with less than 10 seconds to go in two of them. They could have EASILY won any or all of those games. They are literally three plays away from being 4-2 with wins over the Saints, Falcons, and Eagles. It's not hard to put a positive spin on the rest of the season.

Guys, we beat the Raiders. Let me repeat...we beat the RAIDERS. We were losing at halftime. Smith was getting booed. We had less than 50 yards of offense before the 2 minute warning. The Raiders were only able to muster 3 FGs the entire game.

It's gonna be a long season. Enjoy the win..........but dont expect too much for the rest of the season. It'll just make it a lot harder to swallow.

Niners had 11 penalties for 143 yards, at home. Luckily they played the Raiders.

They need to fix that if they want to keep winning.

I got a bad feeling about that Broncos game.

How about 1-6 after this next week? I think the team is headed for a loss. The bottom line is that this is not a good TEAM, and the coaching staff is pathetic at this point.

Nine guys on the field? Twelve guys on the field? Well more than 100 yards of penalties? UGLY!!!! Sure glad Heitmann, our team captain, and best OL last year, is riding the bench. Why play him when we have so many immortals on the line.

Two weeks, a 1-7 or 2-6 record, and Singletary is done at the bye. Thank God.

I am glad that we won the game today but fior the love of god quit looking ahead

Slow down!!!!! We just won one game and need to control ourselves

Let's get to 2-5 first and then worry about the next game

One step at a time.....

St Louis and Arizona are showing they're no pushovers at home. The rest of our division have compiled a 7-1 home field advantage.

St Louis plays at Tampa and then home to Carolina. They could be 5-3 coming off a bye before they meet us. It's just impossible to project what's going on the West right now. One game the Rams are losing by 38 to Detroit the next game they beat up on San Diego.
