Second Best Team

[loafoftatupu]

The world is not ready for a Niners/Hawks Super Bowl. It would be too much for the nation to comprehend.

Vegas would go berserk trying to make a line on a neutral field.

what odds would you give me for a triple OT game?

San Francisco probably was the 2nd best team.. but I think they were much more evenly matchup with Denver than we were. The 49ers weak link on defense is their secondary.. so I think Peyton would have had a much better performance against that defense than ours.

At the same time though, the Broncos would have been way over their heads defending the zone read and Boldin/Crabtree/Davis as well. So I think that Super Bowl would have been a hotly contested shootout like SB47 was.

On the flip side, I think New England would have played us closer and San Francisco would have blown them out. So there's that too.

 

[Throwdown]

we're the second most handsome team, too

Nah Frank Gore is hideous and Kaepernick's nose is too much.

Vernon Davis. Nuff Said

LMAO I"m not even going to venture into this convo with you, it feels weird.

Maybe on paper but the 9ers have come up short every year since Harbaugh arrived. Many starting to believe he is just not capable of winning on the big stage.

Sounds crazy but consider who was the better team on paper last year before the sulper bowl or the year prior the Giants had no Bussiness beating the Niners in San Fran.

Until the they prove other wise, Harbaugh is a coach version of Manning. Great in the regular season but not ready for the big stage.

Niners secondary would have got torch, not saying the niners don't win but I think its a close game one way or the other

My rankings would be like this:

1. Seahawks
2. 49ers
3. Saints/Panthers
4. Broncos
5. Patriots
6. Cardinals

Niners pass rush would mess Peyton Manning UP. I don't think SF would destroy Den as much as we did. However if the SB was played over again I don't think we beat them as bad again.


Sunday was special.

Well, in San Francisco, I can say we're pretty happy with Harbs. He's gotten the rep of bringing the team to the NFC Championship game every year since he's been the coach and each year the team does better in the game. The NFCCG was a great game and yep we lost but I'm thinking we ALMOST won and we didn't get blown out by the hawks, in Seattle. With that knowledge AND the victory against Seattle in SF, I'm looking forward to see how things play out next season.

I mean, no doubt your LOB is beastly and really impressive and that you were #1 this year but with what I said above the Niners could be knocking on your door again next year for the #1 spot.

Isn't having a real rival fun? It reminds me of St. Louis in 2000-2001.

There is a strong possibility that Denver goes 0-4 against the NFC West next year - I think they will lose @ Seahawks and @ Rams (yes I am a homer but we play better at home), and the 49ers and Cardinals are the type of team that can go into Denver and get a win. Is it probable? No, but a definite possibility.

Ouch. Should've been 2002 - 2004. (Maybe 2005? The Rams were starting to get crappy by then.)
