Our strength of schedule to date, and other relevant statistics say this is a top 5 team.
I can't name a single defense I'd rather have right now. And aside from the elite 3-4 QBs in this league, I can't say anybody else is playing better than Alex. Alex's win-loss record and widely accepted metrics of success verify this. I can't think of more than a couple RB stables I'd rather have.
We have the unquestioned best front 7 in football. Possibly the top overall defense. Likely one of the best group of coaches. Getting real hard to hate on this team.
This team is among the league's best. Right now.

Buffalo will be higher, alongwith Oakland, maybe over washington.
SF will be higher than Oakland. I say we will be #10.

We will probably be behind Buffalo in your list. I can see us ahead of Pittsburgh and Washington.

Stay under the radar and "LEAVE A DUMMY, A DUMMY". They need to leave us out of the top 12 so other teams will keep making excues why we aren't as good as our record. Under estimation is our best friend.

i hope Detroit beats Chicagos ass, and then they come out underestimating us, and we beat the snot out of them ala TB sunday. Then we will be top 5 for sure.

One result of the Tampa Bay game is that no NFL team is going to undestimate the Niners. Meida and opposing fans maybe but not the actual teams the Niners play.

If Detroit holds on, and we beat them next week, no chance we are lower than 2. If GB loses next week we'll be #1.
