The only game this happened in for San Fran was yesterdays game which was due to both QBs going down with injury. You look at the 12-13 games before that and CMC was elevating everyone around him. 
 

If you want confirmation, look at Kittle’s numbers before AND after the CMC trade and get back with me

They would have lost regardless of the qb.

you might could make the case the Eagles are the most overrated team to ever reach the Super Bowl. 

Easiest schedule in the NFL? check. 

Bad Giants team in round one? check

NFCCG? Opposing QB hurt on opening drive. Opponent didn't have QB to attempt a forward pass for the 2nd half.

Why didn't they have a qb?  They couldn't stop the pass rush.  I'm sure they would like some of those picks back to address that situation.

We were still strongly one dimensional being a run first team with showed in at least 3 games to close out the season when Hubbard and Foreman decided to take a nap. 
 

Disagree all you want but he would have likely helped lead the 49ers to a SB with a 7th round QB had the entire QB roster not fallen apart. Because they  knew how to utilize him.

Disagree with my disagreement all you want, but I think the 49ers were a championship caliber team before he showed up, and I don't think he made a world of difference for them, just like he didn't make a world of difference for us.

They were 3-3 and won 12 consecutive games after he signed. Purely coincidental though….championship caliber teams are generally 500.

If anyone actually thought the Niners were going to wipe the floor with the Eagles and the Chiefs with Brock Purdy that's your own fault for believing in fairy tales. The Eagles were the more balanced team. Anyone with eyes could see that running their entire offense through McCaffrey was not built to last or enough to win it all against more well rounded teams.

The Eagles strength of schedule was harder than the 49er's by far from what I'm looking at. On the other hand the 49er's look to have the easiest schedule according to strength of schedule.

Edit: Just glancing at Tankathon's listed strength of schedule.

Nothing to do with a change at quarterback, the most important position in the league though, right?

Well you have folks saying they lost the championship game because they didn’t have a stellar QB and you’re saying they went on a 12 win streak because of the change at QB. So which one is it?

There QB got knocked out on the first drive of the game.   And it essentially killed their chances. 

They had a QB.  One that had been playing great. 

in the NFCCG it turned into a game that featured a great defense and run game.  And you can't win with it.

I personally didn't say anything about them losing the championship because of their QB play.  They lost the championship because they went up against the Eagles, who have been by far the best team in the league all season.  They were outclassed at every nearly every position on the field.

I get that, but having your starting and backup QB get knocked out of a championship level game doesn’t necessarily equate to a player like CMC being invaluable because he can’t win the game for them in that moment. That’s a bit of a stretch.

      Ranked Panthers as the Best this year!!

      By frankw · Posted

      If you're looking for a pat on the back it sounds good in theory until you realize they also had the 2023 Panthers as the top draft class.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      Going into the 2003 and 2015 seasons we were supposed to be the joke of the league each time. In 2003, John Fox was supposed to still be in rebuild mode. We had a guy named Peppers on the defensive line who was supposed to be pretty good. We had Rodney Peete as our starting QB and a line that was a lot of hope and not much experience. Our new running back was a guy the Redskins, errrr Commanders, had jettisoned for being too old. We had a good kicker and writers thought that was needed because there were going to be more field goals than touch downs. Heck, it looked like they were right up until just before halftime of that first game when we had to yank Rodney Peete and put in some Cajun duded whose name couldn't be pronounced. And Steve Smith? He wasn't Smitty yet. Moose Muhammad, well, he was close to being written off as a bust. You know how that turned out. And then in 2015, we had Cam Newton, who was electrifying to watch but hadn't really won anything yet. There was an offensive line in front of him that looked like it was made in a defunct Swiss cheese factory and our big hope on offense was the great Kelvin Benjamin. And then he got taken out for the year with a knee injury in training camp. Ted "Feet of Lightning, Hands of Stone" Ginn became our default go to guy beside our next best hope, yeah, Devin Funchess. Our defense was pretty good, a scrappy bunch with frikkin' awesome linebacker play and a cornerback who had done more than drank the Kool-Aid, but had snorted the powder. He played like a superhero and became sort of a bat-man during the season. By the Super Bowl he had completely lost his freaking mind, though, and managed to talk his way out of a contract with the team next year. No one was expecting us to win the NFCSouth that season, much less almost go undefeated and into the Super Bowl. So, 2026? Who knows? But our best seasons came when no one had a reason to believe in us, except us.

      it's not so much this personal vendetta against the Carolina Panthers as it is more about Bryce Young never not once been in the same conversation with the top 15 or even top 20 Qbs in the NFL ..just saying
