I would guess the 49ers will be ranked in a range of 14-18. Though Tampa Bay was NFC South leader, that division does not get the cred that AFC East and NFC East gets. Several teams in those divisions will get ranked higher than they deserve, IMO.
We were #15 after last week. So you think we'll stay the same or drop after a 45 point win over a 3-1 team...yeah, makes sense. FOLKS, WE ARE #1 IN THE NFL IN POINT DIFFERENTIAL!!!! We got the THIRD rated QB in football. We are 4-1. We just dismantled one of the better teams in the league and STILL even the most optimistic predictions have us around 10 or so. Guys, we absolutely SHOULD and DESERVE to be in the top-5. Will we be? Who knows, but that's where we belong. Outside of Green Bay, our résumé is as good as ANYONE'S.
