No. 1: 49ers Exceed Many Analysts’ Predictions for the Season Outcome

Almost everywhere I look, I hear and read a wealth of irreverence over the 49ers. Except for awesome places like Niner Noise, of course!

Few national “experts” seem to put much stock into the red and gold. Case in point, CBS Sports’ Pete Prisco has the Niners going 7-9 this season. Hardly anyone is throwing them a bone.

Well, I am here to say, “Let ’em talk!” When the battle has been fought and the dust settles, I think we will see a much more rigid team that few have foreseen.

I feel as if this Niners lot will post stats and numbers beyond those of what is being predicted by guys like Prisco.
