Between facing a #2 seed schedule full of real teams, with the Rams trending upwards in their weak division, and a whole year for the rest of the league to look at film and figure out their new coach and their one-trick-pony offense, the 49ers will be lucky to crack higher than 8-8 next year. Yeah they beat the Saints, but their vaunted "#1 defense" was exposed when the Saints hung 32 freaking points on them. You could see the Giants were using the same exact blueprint on offense and defense from the Saints game, just not making the same turnovers. Other teams will replicate this.
I don't think any team that has beaten the Saints in the playoffs, under Sean Payton, has ever won their next playoff game, am I correct in this? That's kind of an interesting stat right there. |
