Yep, it's very possible we could see Pats and 9ers in the Superbowl. That would be my and Tom Brady's dream.

Right now, there's a sensible argument you can make, but they're not clearly ahead of Seattle, Green Bay or New Orleans for mine. Rams and Eagles are running out of excuses. Cowboys have run out. None of them are fair dinkum teams at this stage.

SF are kinda weak when it comes to receivers but it doesn’t matter when Shanahan has a healthy roster with players used to his scheme. He’s excellent at establishing a destructive ground attack. Garoppolo is no Matt Ryan but he’s good enough, especially when he has such an excellent defense to fall back on (something Shanahan never really had in Atlanta). That defense is really becoming a special unit from the trenches out. I don't know. San Francisco passed all over the Rams. Kyle Shanahan.

I don't play or work for the Packers. What position do you play on the Eagles? Arm Chair Quarterback

Not sure why not having Brees matters. He was tailing off at the end of last year, and Bridgewater is better than Garrapolo.

But if he was tailing off at the end of last season, could be because he was getting tired. This injury gives him 6-7 weeks off. So he will be more fresh at the end of this season.

I was going to make this thread yesterday, but changed my mind at the last second. It’s a very good question and very much one worth asking. I’m so glad that someone was able to ask it.
Yes.

I think this is a year an NFC wild card team makes the run to the superbowl.

And just for reference, the 9ers face 1- win Washington next week. Should they win, they'll be 6-0 and their opponents would have combined for 10 total wins.
The Patriots are currently 6-0 and their opponents have a combined 10 wins. And all anyone says is how easy their schedule has been.

The only good team the 9ers have played is the LA Rams. And the Rams have lost 3 in a row. The only good team the Patrionts have played is Buffalo.

Just some food for thought as, with a win next week, the 49ers will have the same opponent win total. Yet this thread is about how they might be the best team in the NFC, and not about how they have had a supremely easy schedule.

Their easy schedule. The Patriots have a history of winning. But they have had an easy schedule also. And they are blessed with being in a traditionally weak division.

But it will even out in the end, and the 2 teams in the AFC Championship will have earned the right to be there, and the team that plays better in that game will earn the right to go to the super bowl. Same in the NFC.

Than it is to battle good teams all year. You get beat up.

You get beat up. But nobody faces good teams all year. Some teams play lots of good teams during their regular season schedule. Other teams don't. Normally nobody is any good in the AFC East. So that's 6 cupcakes for New England right out the box. Alabama traditionally play nobody until they face LSU and Auburn at the end of the year. LSU has already played 2 teams ranked in the top 10.
