Last two opponents for 2017 now officially set

Last place in the NFC South is locked up (sigh) so now we know for sure that next season, we'll host the Eagles... and unfortunately, return to Levi's Stadium. The 49ers shouldn't be anything to worry about, but the haunting memories in that stadium are thoughts we could do without. At least that game will be a great opportunity for our surprisingly strong California fanbase to show up in large numbers.

We will be there in numbers.

Seeing a blowout in their home stadium (49ers) will quickly erase all those awful memories.

Seeing Kaep's face snuffed in his turf will be ever so sweet. 

As great as that will be, that won't nearly make up for what happened back in February. :(

So this finally means no Seattle for once?

This has been evident for a while now... I'd rather see them in the playoffs, anyway.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
