Yeah how do you leave out Eric Reid? He's been an upgrade over a departed All Pro safety.

Wow that's a huge oversight on my part!

Eric Reid...dang....no one here is missing Dashon Goldson, that's amazing.

What he's done for the pass D is amazing. Other than being an immediate upgrade at FS he's made the players around him significantly better. If we can draft another like him this year it would be exceptional.

Not one of the bigger good things, but Wilhoite has come in when necessary and done a nice job of covering for Willis when needed. The "next man up" in most positions have been doing pretty well - except for at wide receiver.

I would say one of the bigger good things is how the team came out of the second and third game travesties and have developed into playing really well as a TEAM.

Probably why you forgot to mention him! The transition has been so seamless, you'd never know we lost an All-Pro safety.

Dont forget Gore and Vernon have had a great 1st halfs, same for Boldin. And of course Reid, Bowman.

Glad you brought this up. It's a great point.

In retrospect, I view the Seattle/Indy games as "humbling" losses. I think with all the Superbowl hype the 49ers had going into the season the players probably felt like they already earned it. And how they responded is probably the best stretch of 49ers football I've ever seen in my life. lol

I agree, and to be honest, I think those two losses have made us better. As I said after the two losses, sometimes adversity is what toughens a team and makes them Super Bowl contenders. The 1988 team had to go through some tough losses, and Bill Walsh was hearing a lot of criticism. But they came together at the right time and ended up winning the Super Bowl. I honestly think that if we had beaten the Colts, we would not have come out as focused as we did the rest of the way. Hopefully this attitude and focus carries on and we can keep the winning streak going.
