Re: 2019-20 Conference Championship Games
In 3 short years, Niners have gone from losers & the laughing stock of the league to NFC Champs & a chance at another SB ring in 2 weeks. John Lynch has drafted extremely well & it's paying off.
This team was 4-12 last year. |

If Jimmy G don't go down for the season with his injury, they probably don't finish 4-12 and in a spot to draft Bosa. I remember when Lynch was hired and many fans laughed about it and thought he would screw up their drafts. Most of us also laughed at them hiring Shanahan after the 28-3 blown SB. |

Sean Payton took over a 3-13 team and took it to the NFCCCG his first year with it.

Re: 2019-20 Conference Championship Games
Forgot to mention - despite already being stacked with good talent on offense, they were willing to pull the trigger and make a trade for Emmanuel Sanders.
I wanted us to get Sanders so bad. Instead, we did no trades and just kept telling ourselves that this team was good enough to reach the SB without a second legit WR. When we played the Niners and Sanders went off on us for a big game, that was humiliating. |

Re: 2019-20 Conference Championship Games
If the Chiefs can beat this Niners team in 2 weeks, then hats off to Mahomes and Andy Reid.
After our heart breaks and going through rough patches, I'm to a point where I root for guys labeled as "chokers". I would be happy to see Reid get over the hump and win a SB. |

Their off season that year was crazy. They basically assembled a pro bowl roster with all their defensive signings. They picked up Richard Dent, Charles Mann, Ken Norton, Rickey Jackson, Deion Sanders, Gary Plummer and a few others. Even on offense, they were able to snag a few gems for a loaded roster. Ed McCaffrey won 3 SBs in his career - that one, and then the back to back with Denver a few years later. The 1997-1998 Broncos also cheated the cap pretty hard and are the main other team besides SF who are the reason why there had to be such strict rules intact for the salary cap going into the 2000s. |

On a serious note, I was happy Rickey Jackson was able to get a ring, which probably helped him get into the Hall of Fame in the long run. Canton seems to consider guys more seriously if they have a ring. |
