We are better off hoping our pass rush rattles Ryan so thoroughly and consistently that it does not matter who covers Julio Jones.  If needed, rush all 11.

The clock started when John Lynch was named 49rs GM on 1/29/2017.

Matt Rhule was named Head Ball Coach on 1/7/2020...make a note of it.

@PappyMay

LMAO, it doesn't work like that, friend. 49ers fans weren't sitting there in 2015 and 2016, "Oh it's fine we're only winning 5 and then 2 games. We're waiting to start our rebuild!" They then had to endure another 6 and then 4-win season after Lynch took over at GM before the fruits of his labor began to sprout in 2019.

After Harbaugh left town they started a rebuild in 2015, which they had to demo after the season. They then started another rebuild in 2016 with a first time HC coming from the college ranks, a clown at GM, and one of the league's youngest defenses (sound familiar?) which they had to nuke again after it failed spectacularly resulting in a measly 2 wins which they only had from playing the sorry *** Rams twice.

By your own timeline, that's still another 2 years (until 2022) before anything pays off. And if Rhule isn't the one, then that clock restarts and y'all will be waiting longer.

I’m certainly not predicting a Super Bowl inside of 3 years but this notion that we have 4-years of 10+ losses ahead of us and 6 or 7 years until anything good happens is completely laughable.

The Firm is going to blow many many minds, just watch.

PS...Rhule is the one.

I agree. I think we're going to have a surprisingly good team. Still in rebuild, so it's gonna take some time to get where we want to be. But I could see us winning more games than we expect. I love what Rhule did with the draft on defense

Personally I don’t think it’ll take 4 years either... if Rhule is the one.

Is he? We’ll have to see. But I definitely can see some struggles for the first two seasons.

However, I feel Hurney is still part of what’s holding the franchise back. Similar to Dimitroff in Atlanta. As long as he’s still in the building, I’m not expecting much to change.

If this team wins 5-6 games with the huge turnover on the team and staff plus having to deal with restrictions caused by Corona I’ll be happy and Rhule should be COTY

Well, considering that would be about 4 wins for me, that wouldn't be tough to pull off. I'm honestly expecting 3 or less.

That’s realistic.   New players. New system New coaches, most without nfl experience.  No OTAs     Best part of the season, probably 2021 draft position and if I’m lucky, I can get a refund for my PSLs if there are no people in the stands 

I’d rather not pay to watch yet another rebuild

Yeah, I understand optimism but the people expecting Teddy Bridgewater to all of a sudden turn into an elite NFL QB and a very inexperienced NFL coaching staff to perform a miraculous turnaround in one year with practically no off-season to speak of... I mean, it's just not realistic and is setting yourself up for major disappointment.

I'm optimistic for the future, but prepare to take our lumps this coming season.

Put us in another division and playoffs would be a strong possibility.  It's going to be good for our defense to grow up this year while going against some of the greats of the game.  Can't wait to see how we look in 2-3 years.

There’s no reason to tank ! We will not get the top 3 qbs we’ll just miss out and take another dt or lb .  That’s why I’ll rather try to make the playoffs and build that confidence and I think this is a good team . Y’all stuck in the rivera mindset where we sucked and never changed up we have an offense that no one can game plan for . We are in an overhyped division I’m not worried about two qbs in their 40s they are shells of themselves. Bree’s lost a step and Brady looked terrible last season to be honest .  He is now in a different offense , gronk is washed up  and will be rusty

Yeah, if we could join a college conference I feel pretty confident we could qualify for the college playoffs.

Oh, wait... you mean NFL? NFL playoffs?

Brees “lost a step” and still threw for 49/69 (71% completion), 564 yards, 6 TD, 1 INT, and a 118.3 QB rating in the 2 games against y’all last year.
