the 49ers in 2019? New,66comments2018 was a season from hell, what do you think
the 49ers need to do to get back? PDTShareTweetShareShareWhat will be “good
enough” for the 49ers in 2019? The San Francisco 49ers had an awful, awful 2018.
Jerick McKinnon going down before the season began proper was a bad sign and
Jimmy Garoppolo tearing his ACL in Week 3 pretty much stuck a fork in everything
before it even got started. . Well the 49ers are getting healthy, and the
excuses are getting old. It was understandable how the 49ers played so bad in
some games, but now with two seasons under his belt, Kyle Shanahan has to take
them to the next level. The question now is what do we really need for the ship
to keep sailing? The 49ers are almost set with their roster and have filled
necessary holes. What they need now is some time to gel. The defensive line in
particular has a chance to be one of the best in football in a year or two. So
what happens? What is good enough for 2019?Less than eight winsLast year, we’d
have said it was a rebuilding season, thatthe 49ers were just turning the
corner. It’s not that the 49ers were losing, it was how they were losing. If you
look at the losses in Chip Kelly/Jim Tomsula’s tenures, the 49ers looked lost in
all phases of the game. With Shanahan, they lose and know how they lost, plus
they play hard until the end. The 49ers have done more rebuilding where we can’t
use that excuse anymore. Less than seven wins is a disturbing finish and while
it won’t mean the end of John Lynch/Kyle
Shanahan

there will be some changes at the end of the season. Perhaps defensive
coordinator Robert Saleh gets shown the door, maybe they make a few adjustments
to scouting. Whatever happens, Shanahan’s seat would definitely be getting warm
with another four-win season. Another finish like this wouldn’t make him on the
hot seat and walking on eggshells, but there would definitely be some annoyed
stares at him as he walks the halls of the building. Eight winsIf the 49ers
finish at .500, consider it progress. They haven’t been able to get there in
years and have a very, very young team at their disposal. Given the competition
in the NFC West and the NFC at large, as well as that brutal schedule the NFL
served to them, 8-8 would be an achievement and an indication things are going
in the right direction. If this was a team with a large amount of pieces already
here when Shanahan arrived, 8-8 would be atrocious. The fact is, the entire
roster lackluster when the current staff arrived and they had to overturn just
about everything but four or five players. You simply cannot compete in a year
or two when you are doing that, it takes time. Nine to 10 winsThis could happen.
I predicted the 49ers would win nine games when the schedule came out and I
think it’s pretty fair to put them in this range. If they pull this off, they
would have pull off wins against the Seattle Seahawks and Los Angeles Rams and
weather the storm against some road games including the New Orleans Saints,
Baltimore Ravens
Laken
Tomlinson Jersey , and Washington. 11 wins or moreThis happens, Niners
Nation just might run out of oxygen. If the 49ers pull off 11 wins, they not
only capitalized on catastrophe in the NFL, but they will then have huge
expectations for 2020. The 49ers are not a 12-win team yet, but if the injury
bug has a severe outbreak in the NFL, they could be right there to take
advantage. If they get there, they would most likely have won the NFC West and
would be hosting a playoff game, or two. Be careful of this though, if the 49ers
were to win this and then struggle in 2020, it may be more catastrophic for Kyle
Shanahan’s staff because expectations would go through the roof and excuses
would be left at the door. What’s your realistic expectations (yes, I know half
of you are going to say 23-0)? What do you think will be good enough and a sign
of progress from the 49ers for 2019? The NFL continues to find new ways to cram
more and more cheese into the pizza.The 49ers have sold two seats in their draft
room for a whopping $22,000, via Darren Rovell.Although the money will go to
charity
Terrell Owens
Color Rush Jersey , this approach unlocks a high-end revenue stream that
previously has gone untapped. And there’s no requirement that the revenue
generated by this kind of thing be donated.Patrick Ryan of Entellect points out
that a package including a training session with Jimmy Garoppolo and a road trip
with the team went for $29,000 as part of the recent 49ers Foundation
auction.Experiences can become the next expansion of things fans will pay for,
starting with autographs and shifting to game-worn memorabilia. These
experiences are truly unique, and there’s no concern that the experiences will
be anything other than the real thing — a very real risk when it comes to buying
game-used articles.Being in the draft room or hanging out with the starting
quarterback or flying on the team plane or staying at the team hotel or sitting
in the locker room before a game is as genuine and authentic as it gets. For
players and coaches, however,, it also may be seen as an invasion and a
distraction, and that’s where things will get interesting, if/when the 49ers and
other NFL franchise try to cram cheese into (and pull cash from) previously
exclusive team activities.
