Course I thought at the time an "adequate" QB like Flynn would do it, not the best young QB in the NFL, but the ground work, and toughness was there, for those that wanted to look, also was when I was saying the NFC West would be the best division in football within two years. Told you the year SF would return to the SB, when Seattle would reclaim the division, and professed they would WIN the whole enchilada before ota's last off season, you do the math.


Well cmon, people in every city believe their team is on the verge. Every fan knows their own players, aquisitions and potential upgrades better than their opponent's fanbase. In a league this closely matched everyone has a xhance to make a gigantic leap out of nowhere with a couple aquisitions and the former top dogs getting hit with injury or FA. For all we know the Raiders go 13-3 this yr with their monster upgrades, the Broncos end 9-7 and Oakland has homefield enroute to the SB. Seattle set the foundation before for sure with great D, run game and a big, physical athletic group. You could really see that even in warm ups. I have no idea what other team has the foundation in place, but I guarantee there are at least a couple that will show out of nowhere and it will be a surprise to everyone but that fanbase.

Sure there are surprises, I MENTIONED several in the list of teams that won a bunch of games one year and then evaporated, my POINT was I am not going to worry about "surprises". Which is what I was saying about Arizona, sure they COULD make some noise, but they also could fade back into irrelevance, because they haven't taken that sstep yet, the one that Seattle and Santa Clara took. It's one thing to "surprise" people, and an ENTIRELY different thing, to maintain the success, until a team shows it can maintain it, I don't stress about them. IF Arizona wins another 10 games this season, and has an ability to beat each team in this division regularly, then sure they move up to a serious threat, they haven't done that yet.
