    Playing in New Orleans is always tough, but the 49ers have the O-line, backs and scheme to run all over the Saints. (Sando)

    Most of the bones are there. We just need a paleontologist that knows how to put the bones together.

    This team can still make it deep into the playoffs if it plays its best ball. We have a 2-3 record versus teams this season with a winning record. The two teams we beat with winning records were Indianapolis and Dallas. We could have won the Packers and Texans games had we had better playcalling. The only loss we had no business even being in the game is against the 49ers. We were simply ambushed and beaten every which way but up in the game. We were way outcoached on offense, defense, and special teams. The playcalling against the Texans was actually pretty good, and would have worked quite well if the plays that were called had been executed by our normally reliable Pro Bowl skill position players.

    We are an offensive line away from being an elite team IMHO. Yes, there are a number of other things where we can improve. But even with this coaching staff, I think we could have made a serious Super Bowl run this season if we had a solid oline.

    Yes, I believe so, but the really good teams can beat other equal teams with some creative game plans. While a good OL would have gotten us a good run, I really do believe that we have some deeper underlying problems. I say lets address what needs to be addressed and get the cart back on the road.
