49ers Projected Record (miss playoffs)

[49RH8R]

SF sits at 6-3 and would make the playoffs if the season ended today. They keep winning because their schedule is a joke and they keep playing shitty teams. I'm still predicting McCaffrey goes down at some point and I have a feeling it will be this Sunday. Here is a realistic final stretch which has them finishing 9-7 and not making the playoffs. Now I'm assuming a lot but I don't think 9-7 will be enough to make the playoffs in the NFC. Also, in this scenario CHI and maybe even CAR would own the head to head tiebreaker.


vs Los Angeles - Loss. The Rams are playing good ball. Revenge game. LAR are more talented overall and I just don't see a sweep.

@ Arizona - (a loss to one of these three teams) AZ blows but played them tough last game. Division game.

vs Carolina - (a loss to one of these three teams) CAR is actually playing well and beat BUF and GB in back-to-back weeks

@ Cleveland - (a loss to one of these three teams) Offense sucks but defense is OK #4 against the rush and #7 against the pass

vs Tennessee - W. Tennessee blows

@ Indianapolis - Loss. In Indy, fighting for playoff seeding.

vs Chicago - Loss. Chicago has grown and will be playing better as a team. Playoff drought is on the line for them.

vs Seattle - *Loss. Seattle could possibly be jockeying for #1 seed and need a win.

*this could backfire if SEA already has their slot in the playoffs locked up and rests their starters.

Even if SF squeaks into the playoffs they will get eliminated in the first round and get a lower draft pick among 9-7 teams.
