Geno is fine for now, their offense was not the issue this year. Bmv is right though. They are the team we should fear the most. I wouldn't be surprised if they trade down as well, they will have a lot of ammo to replenish their defense. And they do have a couple solid young defensive players.
The guy that made them tough for all those years was Wilson. 49ers rarely had trouble playing them close, even when they were at their best, it was Wilson pulling some crazy play out of his ass that made them some incredibly difficult to beat. Geno ain't that guy. I hope they pay him lots of money.
Ya gonna be interesting what they pay Geno. But I was more responding to the previous poster who asked which three teams will be the most competitive going forward. Hard to argue about Seattle being that team for now. But definitely don't think they will be as good as they were in the past.
Even with Geno I don't expect Seattle to be what they before in 2012-13. If the 49ers keep the team intact with the addition of Moseley back, I expect the 9ers to own the NFCW for a while.
Geno is a really good game manager but nothing more. He's very Alex smith Esque - needs everything to go well and the team to make no mistakes, because they can't make it up against the good teams. Sure they'll get better but I also think Geno is going to have a hard time repeating the same success.
im not worried about them like I was when Wilson was there but they'll be a thorn in our side.
