We have a few Negative Nancy's in here. The best one was: "Most disappointing 2-0 start ever." If we don't win by 50 plus points, it's disappointing.
Had the internet been a thing in 1981, these very same fans would be calling for Joe Montana to be benched and Bill Walsh to be fired.
What they really want is to get a rise out of you.
Are some really disappointed we beat a good Eagles team on the road? Bruh smfh
Was it pretty? Not even a little, but good teams find a way to win. I see the Eagles winning that division and making some noise in the playoffs.
Our defense while they gave up some big plays, played lights out
Nobody remembers those 1981 games that we won by outrageously high scores like 9-3 or 10-6.
Can you imagine the fan reaction in here?
I get that. But football is different now. Rules are made that almost no leads are ever safe. So it's a lot more hectic at the end of game when it's close.
The only truly dominant team Bill Walsh ever coached was the 1984 team. They dominated nearly every game they played.
But the other three Super Bowl teams played close games like the 49ers played today. They made just enough plays to win in games that could have swung one way or another.
I think the 49ers could be a SB team, but it's too early to tell. The season is off to a great start, but it is only two games old.
