  • What cracks me up is how this matchup is now portrayed as one of the fiercest in the league now. The last few seasons have had some increasingly physical meetings but just 3 yrs ago this matchup was an after-thought to the NFL. Will be of note to see how this matchup is viewed in 5-10 yrs.

  • The Rams will be heard and felt, as well. Even last year, their efforts kept the division title in play for Seattle down to the last week.

    Very true. Was going to comment about the whole NFC West but I think a lot of folks inside the division know things are ramping up competition-wise for the 4 teams. I think Bradford can at least surpass Mark Bulger production and Bulger was a good adversary when healthy. I personally would not expect to be blowing out the Rams, both games last year were knock down, sluggish games due to the defenses. And if the Cardinals ever settle down their QB position, maybe they aren't getting rolled by 50.

  • I am really looking forward to division play it will be a dog fight. I would not be surprised to see St.L finish in 2nd place the D line is excellent and they added some huge and fast receivers

  • SF lost their best DB and their best WR - they're vulnerable while the Seahawks just got better. So Rams in second is not such a sketchy proposition. And also SF has that mythic first-place schedule next season. And plus after Kaepernik's shaved-chest antics, everyone's gonna be playing grab-ass games with his ass.

    Yeah I guess. It sounds good but when you look at their RBs the enthusiasm should be tempered. Stephen Jackson being gone is going to hurt.

    I fully anticipate we take on the Ravens v Stealers spot as the match up year in year out for the next ten years.

    Winning carries a connotation that something is, or can be, earned without much or any effort. As an example, you can win a door prize at a fair for writing your name and address on a slip of paper. Earning something necessarily requires effort and work, however.

    Or was your question rhetorical?

    Not too sure about that. I have a feeling the Niners start out 0-2 (vs Green Bay & @ Seattle) and never really recover enough to draw even with us for the remainder of the season..
