We would've easily won the division because our back ups are certainly able to beat the Rams the Cardinals and take the Seahawks until the last minute of the game. I guess all those close games playing without pro bowl players didn't matter
No doubt having Jimmy last year would've improved our record. I just dont know by how much...
QB play was terrible, but the injuries and covid played the biggest part. Would Jimmy been able to play that good and develop good chemistry with the guys on offense, when so many of them were constantly missing games?
I believe we only had Kittle, Mostert, Deebo, and Ayiuk, on the same field at the same time 1 game. Would've been tough for Jimmy as well. Maybe 3 extra wins?
And this year, we have some unknowns, especially on defense. Saleh was a big reason on why our defense looked pretty good last year. Sherman leaving is also a big problem.
I see us as a 8,9 win team, unless Ryan is also a really good DC and our defense is still top 10. Then we are easily a playoff team.
