The following is what you said in another thread, to which I have consistently responded is useless as it ignores context (doesn't consider the dumpster fire that is the offenses the 49ers faced in week one and two) and the sample size is too small. Even after three weeks all one can do, with absolute accuracy, is make comparisons to previous weeks / years...and speculate:
I mean, the most important thing in 2017 is getting this defense back on track and so far we're on that path.
Offense will come along when we get better players. We're going to take stock of what we have this year and address needs in the 2018 draft/free agency.
ENJOY the rebuild for crying out loud. Stop being butthurt because Kaepernick is gone. That's the only reason I can think of here. Seeing these people whine like this.
The best possible scenerio is that our defense plays well but we still end up with a good draft position. 2018 is going to be a much better QB class.
Go watch the Browns or Texans if you have a Watson/Kizer fetish. I'll be over here ENJOYING the rebuilding process.
As I said then, there was nothing to support your claim. The 49ers' defense was playing offenses, that at the time, were inept (at best). Your conclusion that the defense was back on track was utterly unsupportable. And then, after week three, it turned out to be woefully inaccurate.
Without even touching the single game stats I posted in the other thread, the current 49ers' defense ranks 25th in rush YPG, 15th in pass YPG, 22nd in total YPG, and finally 27th in points per game. Now, I won't ignore context like you do. I fully acknowledge the 49ers' offense has screwed them over. And consistently so. Injuries have hit the 49ers hard as well. But, that being said, there is nothing to support your claim that the defense is on the right track (comparing week to week - year to year is an apples to oranges comparison).
Regurgitating that it's a rebuild year in every thread doesn't change anything. Everyone here understands that. That thing you mentioned earlier...objectivity...well, here it is good sir, in spades. Feel free to try it.
