I'm not even gonna see the comments here. LA looked like a team that would lose to a healthy SF before they went on their FA spree with Suh, Cook, Peters, and Talib. Garropolo got hurt, so who knows what SF would be right now with him healthy. The NFC North race is not over yet. Btw, in my predictions right before the season I had Chicago finishing top two in the north.

Garropolo got hurt and LA added players! Different scenario if neither of those happened.

Even if Jimmy G didn't get hurt, so you think they could of competed for the NFC West. Nope, the Rams were and are better.

I'd like to comment that my tiers were before the Khalil Mack trade, Jimmy G going down, and half of the Falcons D going down.

There is no explaining the Eagles season, though. They are pretty much a disaster based on their talent level

They would not have won the division, but they would have competed. Two things you have to account for. The rams free agency and Patrick Maholmes. SF lost close games to LAC, GB, Arizona the second time, NYG. They actually was in it with LA week 7 before SF's offense could not do anything and LA wore them out. SF would be 6-4 at this point with a healthy Garropolo. They would have beaten LAC, GB/LAR/NYG, Oakland, and swept Arizona. And they would split with Seattle, beat this TB team they are close with as it is, and beat Denver. It's debatable if they would beat Chicago. They would be 9-7 or 10-6.

My blog had LAR btw winning the division, having the top seed, and making the SB. It's SP deciding to use something against me here to run me off, but it's not working.

I love how you state this as fact. You're out there dude, but you are consistent. I'll give you that.

You just have to ignore the fact, they were 1-2 with the elite Jimmy G. Before the 49ers luck ran out with this franchise QB getting hurt.

i don't think the Niners were a play-off contender even with Jimmy G under center. He was a great story last year and he might be good down the road but we don't know anything yet. I like what the Niners have done in their rebuild despite this Foster craziness but they are very young, still make a lot of mistakes and are still a little way off from overtaking the Seahawks in that division. Let's give them a little time to grow and see what they actually are. I thought they might win 6-8 games this year with Jimmy. Now I think they are a little behind in the rebuild. It's baby steps for now but I like the way they compete at times.

I think they were solidly the third place team in the NFC West with Jimmy G. They beat the Lions and played the Vikings and Chiefs fairly tough in losses. 6-8 wins sounds about right.
