come on.
In 2019, the San Francisco 49ers were NFC champions. In 2020, they finished 6-10 and felt the need to trade up to the third overall pick in this year's draft for a new franchise quarterback to replace Jimmy Garoppolo.
2020 was a dramatic drop that didn't have much to do with an actual drop in talent, but was more a result of a rash of injuries. The Niners had to survive injuries to Garoppolo, Raheem Mostert, Tevin Coleman, Deebo Samuel, George Kittle, Nick Bosa, Solomon Thomas, Richard Sherman, Jaquiski Tartt and K'Waun Williams.
Given the role each of those players had on the roster, no team would have had a winning season losing that many players for extended periods of time.
Penciling in the team to return to their Super Bowl contending status would be a bit hasty, though. Garoppolo has been injury-prone his entire career, and Trey Lance might not be ready to take over after playing one game in 2020 at North Dakota State.
Free agency wasn't kind to them either. Richard Sherman has yet to sign for a team, Thomas, Ahkello Witherspoon and Kerry Hyder are gone as well. They signed Samson Ebukam to reinforce the pass rush, but the defense got worse through free agency.
The draft was mostly focused on the offense. Third-round pick Ambry Thomas wasn't on our big board and opted out of the 2020 season, so it might be a while before he makes an impact.
Playing in the NFC West will slow the rebound as well.
Prediction: 8-9
Lol the defense got worst cause it lost Ahkello and Thomas. Lol I need this laugh
Bleacher Report knows nothing but s**t.

We have no other option but to win. We traded our draft pick away so if we tank Miami is likely going to have a top pick.

What the f**k is this survey it keeps going between 9-12 wins and 13-17 wins. Who are we losing a million games too, this schedule is really easy.

Sounds pretty spot on. Just a bit overly optimistic in terms of win totals.

The thought that went into the Bleacher Report....report was of a 6th grade level. It's like they sat there and wrote that sh*t from the top of their heads.

What punishment did they give us? An earlier bye week?
