San Francisco at 10 5 hammered the under, hammer the under, like, and this is where everybody tells me, oh, they had so many games lost to injury last year.

OK, they did, they did.

Well, so did the Lions who still won a boatload of games, but also, we think that’s getting easier.

Christian McCaffrey would have to come back and be Christian McCaffrey for me to have any faith in the 49ers, and I just don’t know that we can believe that that’s happening.

Like I, at some point you look around and say, well, And now you got to figure out what to do with an aging roster that’s got a bunch of players that have either departed or have been injured.

This feels like a falloff to me that the, the 49ers are an eight-win team, maybe a 9-win team that’s desperately clinging to try and figure out how to take the step forward and now they have to do it after paying Brock Burie.

So I don’t think anything gets easier for the 49ers.

If they actually hit the over, if they hit 11 wins, then Shanahan should be in conversation for Coach of the Year cause I just don’t see it with the roster.

I, I was shocked that the market didn’t really adjust down for the 49ers.

They’re like, nope, nope, this is still one of the best teams yet.

10.5 is.

I believe tied for the 5th most, you know, win total highest win total in the NFL, and I will say the 49ers, every positive regression metric you can have, they have, they’re going to bounce back.

Robert Sala comes in for the defense.

I love that.

I, I think Robert Sala is a heck of a defensive coach.

I do think I, I will bet on Christian McCaffrey to bounce back because he’s a Hall of Fame level talent and we’ve seen.

before.

So I think he bounces back.

Like Purdy, as much as I talked about him, I don’t think they should have paid him.

He does run this offense very, very well.

I, I just think the 49ers bounced back in a big way and they have an easy schedule.

You’re gonna look, schedule’s such a big part of this that they have a very easy schedule to, to the point where 11’s a lot.

Get back to 11 is a lot.

I’ll give you that, but I don’t think this, I don’t think they fall off.

I really don’t.

I think this team bounces back.

I trust Shanahan, obviously.

I’ve talked about him a million times.

I, I, I wouldn’t, I wouldn’t mess with the under, let’s put it that way.

I don’t know if I’m gonna go over, I don’t know that I mess with the under though.
