In 1970 it could have been: The Cowboys and the three current NFC West teams that existed in 1970 Today's NFC North without the Vikings and the Rams and 49ers The Cowboys, the Saints, and the Rams and 49ers

Benny the Snake posted:How come this division has that legacy of strong defenses? Is it just consistent drafting and recruitment or what? I know it is a joke about Seahawks fans but the actual answer here is recency bias.

I'm going to use an admittedly flawed statistic but I think it is pretty demonstrative: Since re-alignment, the NFC West, taken together, had the best scoring defense in the league from 2012 through 2015. It had an above average scoring defense in 2011. By contrast, it had the worst scoring defense from 2004 through 2008. Every other year was below average, including three years when the division had the second worst scoring defense. In that same time frame, the AFC North had only two below average seasons.

seiferguy posted:I'd say Seattle got way better on defense, not so much on offense. Only one offensive line pick early on, and a WR pick. The rest was spent rebuilding our defensive line and secondary, which I'm pretty okay with. Yeah. By the same token, I'm not convinced the 49ers got better on offense unless you are projecting a lot of production from Joe Williams or really like blocking TEs or just figure anything is better than last year.

Firing Harbaugh was obviously foolish but I kind of wonder whether it wasn’t inevitable. His personality is grating, there is always a team that he can’t seem to beat (Oregon, the Seahawks, Ohio State) and the team was definitely on the decline by that last season. At least this way Jed may have learned (to be determined) that he is an idiot rather than being able to pass the blame onto Harbaugh for not winning a Super Bowl until the end of his life.

I’m not saying Harbaugh was the problem with the team, he was a key part of the reason they were winning, but I think that even if Jed had somehow made the right decision that year and fired Baalke, the team wasn’t likely to return to a championship level for a few seasons. So you know Jed would then blame Harbaugh anyway with the excuse being the above mentioned characteristics. E: Admittedly, I’m also apparently an old white man at heart and can understand why people tire of Harbaugh because his meltdowns get old quickly and would get particularly old if you weren’t going to the NFC Championship every year.

Since we are doing bold predictions: I can’t wait for the Rams to look like a Super Bowl contender (with the help of the NFL intervening in the officiating to fix a few games for the sake of succeeding in LA) and then go one and done in the playoffs again. Or they’ll win the Super Bowl, regress, and move to St. Louis in a decade and a half.

The 2017 49ers were 13 points away (including two fixed calls from the NFL to favor the Rams) from going 11-5 and have upgraded everywhere except RB and LB and are thus going to go 19-0 with a Super Bowl win this season.

The Rams and the NFL conspired in their meetings. All at once the teams were moved and scattered in the fray. No city could resist their arms, from Phoenix and Seattle on - being cut off at one time. A camp was taken down in St. Louis. They desolated its people and its city was like that which had never existed. They were coming forward toward San Francisco, while the flame was prepared for them. Their confederation was Donald, Suh, Peters, Talib, and Gurley, players united. They laid their hands upon the gridiron as far as the circuit of the earth, their hearts were confident and trusting as they said "Our plans will succeed!" But the heart of this quarterback, the lord of the quarterbacks, was prepared and ready to ensnare them like sheep. Lo, the southern team, which is in Los Angeles, is restless in their limbs; they infest the ways of the bay. Their nostrils and their hearts cease breathing breath, when his excellence goes forth like a storm-wind against them, fighting upon the strand like a warrior. His puissance and the terror of him penetrate into their limbs. Tackled in their places, their hearts are taken, their passes fly astray, and their defensive weapons are cast aside. His passes pierce their secondary, and he who is hit falls into the endzone. He is like an enraged lion, tearing him that confronts him with his hands fighting at close quarters on his right, valiant on his left, like Steve Young, destroying the foe, like Joe Montana. He has laid low the teams, he has crushed every team with his arm, the quarterback of San Francisco and Santa Clara, the Lord of the Two Lands, Jimmy Garoppolo.

JIZZ DENOUEMENT posted:The defensive coordinator stated that of the 7 times they practiced against it, they never stopped it. Just because there was a freak outcome doesn't mean the decision was incorrect. If they had practiced it with a garbageman in the place of a wide receiver, their success rate would have been higher.
