I mean yea the 49ers were perennial losers for years up until Harbaugh showed up to town but they are extremely lucky and the only thing that separates us from them is that they've been lucky all the time and we haven't I mean Ron's no less competent than Harbaugh y'all. You guys need to remember winning takes time.

Go get em in 2029, Ron Rivera.

Were they 2-14 the year before he got there?? I thought they were 6-10, about where we are now.

Harbaugh is a great coach though. No doubt about it.

it took them 8 years after going 2-14 in 2004 to get where they are now.

6-10 with 4 of those wins coming from the then ultra competitive NFC West division which was eventually won by the 7-9 Seattle Seahawks

2029... lol.

I know Ron has had a few too many fail moments, but he still has improved this team every year.

It has only been 2 years since we were 2-14 with Pickles. This is his first gig, and I am seeing improvement.

I know people are also mad about Shula, but I think it may be a blessing in disguise. You dont fix what is not broken, our offense has potential to operate at a very high level, and we are having success with the passing and running game. The playbook isnt so much the problem as the wrong playcalls at the wrong time were.

The defense is also still improving. Our Pass rush is getting into beast mode, and our linebackers are swarming to the ball, even with Beason on the sidelines.

Oh there's that "but" word again we always see when we're trying to follow up an objective Ron observation with a token positive. I don't see any buts in SF because they improve in increments of playoff berths and superbowl berths, not one game per year.

Sucks really. Every year we have some hope for the next season and every year we're let down. There isn't much hope going into next season. When you look at history, this will be Rivera's last year as he'll get fired. Then we start all over with a new staff. Then we have to wait even more years during the "rebuilding phase". Probably won't be good again until 2016 at least.

Well, we played in a division where the second best team only had a 7-9 record and only got 3 wins in our division.

So maybe not as bad as that conference, but close.

      Surprise! Wait… Surprise Again! Kon Looks Really Good!

      By t96 · Posted

      Ehh, new front office has 2 drafts under their belt -- Salaun draft class was really a horrible class in general, but Salaun has started to show some of his potential and KJ Simpson not bad for a 2nd round pick. This past draft clearly looks like it was knocked out of the fuging park obviously with Kon but also Sion and Kalk already contributing in somewhat big roles for late round picks. And McNeeley has shown potential and lit it up in summer league, seems to be doing well in the G league for a young guy too.      As for this season I think a very realistic goal and outcome of the regular season is sneaking up into a 7 or 8 seed and then winning 1 of 2 play-in games to make the real playoffs. Probably get cooked in round 1 but that playoff experience and establishing that expectation of winning is critical to the development of our young core.

      Statistical reasons to Scratch Ickey from returning as a LT--Even in 2027

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      Sound write-up MHS, as always.  Agree that the smart move that forward thinking franchises make would be drafting a tackle early, if not for sure in R1, depending on who's there. Based on early predictions we're choosing between Fano and Proctor. No brainer here...Fano all day. Proctor does not move the needle for me. In my mind, Icky has less future here than Brooks does. I love Icky, but he has been average as a top-10 pick, one good year where you saw the potential...and that was this year. He's built like a RT and his strengths are there, but he's always played left. I also feel like part of what has held him back from being elite, was his work ethic. He was known for it coming out, but feel like he fell right at home in Carolina and maybe didn't push himself as hard as he needed to. Throw in a major crucial injury that will take time to recover and a historical low return rate to current form, and the outlook is not great. Fano can play both sides and we need to also plan for Moton's departure. Either way, delaying drafting a tackle early this year will hurt us down the line. Our current OL is overpriced and needs to start adding draftees to start balancing out the inevitable changes coming in the next 2-3 years.  As others have said, maybe Icky can replace Hunt or Lewis in a couple years when he's fully recovered....IDK. Also not a guarantee, but then you have to figure out his contract and it becomes even more clouded.

      Shedeur makes the Pro Bowl

      It's past time to just eliminate it in terms of an event. Just do the voting, name the roster, and move on. When you get down to 6th and 7th alternates it's just absurd. It doesn't mean anything.
