Great QB, great running game, decent/bad defense but they get it done better than most teams in the NFL. I don't really remember, but was there any talk like this during the Cowboys, or the 49rs reign on the NFL? I wonder if once we get our stuff together if they'll be saying this type of trash about us. It's like they are wanting them to fall apart, that's just bad.

Well, you cannot be the team to beat, until you have done anything.... While I agree with you on the run game, that is about it .... our QB is young and has not done anything yet....Our D was bad last year, but the year before with most of the same cast of characters, was one of the best in the league. Also, only 1 playoff appearance in this millenium does not make us a top tier team.

Long story short, until you show someone you can do something, you are not the team to beat.
