Woof...I was really hoping SF was going to pay Purdy big time and start the domino effect of needing to release other high price talent, but it sounds like that might not be the case. And if you look at SF top paid players we look awful in comparison.

Trent Williams.

Deebo Samuel.

Arik Armstead.

Fred Warner.

George Kittle.

Charvarius Ward.

Nick Bosa.

Then there's us...Geno, DK, Locket, big cat, dreJones,Chenna Nwosu, and Noah Fant. Oof...I feel like we are way behind when comparing the big money players. The evidence against Schneider seems to keep mounting. I guess the longer you are in that position the more likely you are to have more bad calls. We need to try and frame any argument properly. But come on JS, we need you to come through this year! Speaking of this year... Has anyone else noticed the major differences in ratings amongst the draftees. CBS, PFF, ESPN, Bleacher Report, and more all seem to have very different ratings for so many positions. If that's any indication of what scouts are grading like then we may see who's scouting department has the best feel for incoming talent and how they might fit their system.

Kenneth (and SSJay, and Clarke), hope things are all good down there in LA. It looks like a nightmare from what we can see. Stay safe!

Strength of schedule is such a tricky thing to measure. Teams rarely have the same record in 2 consecutive years (unless you’re the Seahawks). Basing it on the previous year’s record is…a bit “meh” because the draft, free agency, coaching changes and injuries play a big part in how a team plays the next year. 9ers in ‘23 go to the SB, then fall off a cliff this year. Broncos suffer thru the second half of the Russell Wilson Experience in 23, then ride Bo Nix (!) into the playoffs in 24.

So I’m hesitant to look at next season’s schedule based on how those teams played this just completed season.

However the 9ers do seem to catch a break as the 4th place team in the NFC West with the huge difference between the top and bottom teams in the divisions our teams play next season.

I’m already talking in circles. I need a beer.
