How Do You Feel Going Into 2025?

Seems like there is tons of optimism not only by fans but the media it's self. I personally don't see it.. Think we're middle of the pack / might make the playoffs this season. Lack of depth, very young players still developing, and constant injury concerns make me feel we're out of top contention.

Like the direction we are going and actually love our draft but believe this might be a season of growing pains and trying to gel. Maybe Saleh is the missing piece, the defense has taken several steps back since his departure and now he back.

I don't think we are a bad team at all but if Mustapha, Lenoir, Warner, Bosa, Trent, Kittle, McCaffery, Purdy, or even Puni get hurt I don't trust the depth behind those players

They have a weak schedule and improved their front 7. So probably a little better. But I don't see this as a Super Bowl team. Too many holes for that.

No option for 17-0?

I think we get 9-10

With this Oline 10-7 sounds reasonable

Anything is possible! You never know. One player, just one player, be it a rook or a vet or an udfa, can potentially spark a football fuse in everybody and cause this team to become the sparkling talk of the NFL!
So don't think injuries or weaknesses or missing parts. But from day 1, Strength and Power!
Go Niners!

About 10 wins, it's a cake schedule , hope they aggressive at the trade deadline

I'm not concerned about injury issues this season. Multiple deep runs for consecutive years + more travel (less rest and recovery) than most teams and every team playing us like it's a playoff game was a key contributor to our injury issues last season. This time around our players have had much more time to rest and we have a much better strength of schedule.

I'm approaching this like the 2018 season. Let our rookies develop and take a step forward. I predict a wildcard berth.

I'm always optimistic, but I don't let sports run my emotional life.

This team COULD win it all, but I don't think it's likely.

If they get healthy and stay that way all year it will be a good year.

Pretty optimistic for now. Team has a long off season with an easier schedule and I know we'll be ok offensively. But I am excited to see our defense with Saleh back along with some newly acquired talent on our DL. We'll make the playoffs.

I have to see how much better the defense will look with Saleh back and the draft picks they got. The offense should be okay. WR is thin but hopefully Pearsall and Jennings can handle things until Aiyuk can play again. CMC is hopefully going to be back at full speed. Weak schedule will help.

Feela like a .500 year to me. 8-9 or 10-7 are good answers. I like what we did in the draft. I think we got some guys that are ready to play snaps, but they are still rookies. Are we able to get off to a hot start? Do they hit a rookie wall or finish strong? And the biggest issue is depth. Warner gets so much as a high ankle sprain and we are in big trouble. Sprained shoulder for Bosa and we may not have a pass rush. Oline is one group where guys are always going to miss some time, and if its Trent or Puni we are in trouble. Its a long season. We might have the top end talent to push for the playoffs, but alot of things are going to have to go right. But I think this a position the team knew they were going to be in and prepared for and next year presents another great opportunity to stack onto this rebuild.

They can make the playoffs… don't have much faith in them winning a playoff game in Philadelphia/Detroit/Washington, though.

I think given our schedule and assuming the guys we're getting back and the changes we made in coaching and talent I think a 10-7 like season is smart money.

It's also simply too early to know which direction the record may move. Just have to make the playoffs and try to play our best football, anything can happen then.

I'm in the 12-5 range.

This board is delulu.
