College Football Rivalry

The San Francisco 49ers are a young team with lots of upside. Head coach Mike Singletary and his “I want winners” mentality seems to be working.

Coach Mike Singletary seems to have masterminded what is quickly becoming one of the better defensive units in pro football today. They have a lot of potential with some big player makers on both sides of the ball.

The 49ers are in the same division as the Arizona Cardinals - the reigning NFC West champs. The Cardinals haven’t played like Super Bowl NFC representatives as of yet.

The 49ers have a good chance to win the NFC West because they are so well coached and overall - the NFC West is rather weak. Whether it’s a weak division or not, the 49ers should compete for the division crown which will get them in the playoffs.

QB Shaun Hill won’t dazzle you with eye popping statistics but he won’t make many mistakes either. Hill is completing over 60% of his throws and has a good QB rating.

Coach Singletary is the perfect man for the job to make this happen, the 49ers are a young team and need a “general” like coach to keep them on the straight and narrow.

Coach Singletary was a great defensive player in his day for the Chicago Bears or “Monsters of the Midway”. If he can instill the knowledge to his defense and create and terrifying defense that resembles the great Chicago Bears defenses of the’80s - the 49ers will be a contender for years.

For this to happen, additional playmakers on the offense might be needed, but what team in the NFL can’t use more offensive weapons? At least they have Crabtree in the works. He can be the big time player they need out wide.
