So How Talented Is This Roster?


Recommended Posts

If we lose Aaron Rodgers and it causes us to be a 5 win team then how talented is this roster, that most of us (including me) have said is very talented.

The roster as a whole is very strong.  There are obviously weak spots, and a quarterback that is severely limited in the game speed intelligence area will lose games for this team.

The biggest reason for the loss last week was a broken coverage.  Take that one play away and everything else played out the same way, the Jets win.

I am not sold on the defense as much as others here have stated.  I believe last years stats were misleading since teams really didnt need to score a lot of points to win.  Just get the lead and cruise to the finish.

I like a lot of the players on defense but I don't think they are near as good as advertised.

 

With that said, there is an easy part of schedule coming up after bye where they can look lots better.

Chiefs are a five win team without Mahomes. Jaguars don’t win a game without Lawrence. Let’s relax a bit here

But doesn't that mean that the QB basically is the roster then?

Very. We saw it against the bills when they cared. 
 

they are discouraged now and are just going through the motions and Saleh has no idea how to handle it and will tell Hack to throw on first down when they should open the game in a hurry up attack mode. They will be playing from behind all season. The game will be over anytime an opponent gets to 14 points.  
 

J!

Not buying that.  I think Josh Allen had a bad first week and the Bills, in general, hadn't kicked it in gear.

The team has no QB. Hard to win games.

We're not as talented as our fans wanted to believe.  Especially at WR.

But the QB is the fulcrum upon which the success of a modern NFL team balances.

And ours is a historic-level of horrible.

Change that, and maybe we can start to really evaluate how good/bad the rest of the team is in a normal situation with a normal NFL QB.

How far do you think the Jets would go with Brock Purdy as our starting QB?

Competing for the division title.

And that would be true if you inserted quite a few QBs in that spot.  Including the one I’ve been saying we should have traded for since back in June:  Davis Mills.

If Brock Purdy gets hurt and the 49ers have to go to Sam Darnold, how far do you think the 49ers could go with him?  To me, they still have a shot to go to the Super Bowl.

Meanwhile, if you put Sam Darnold on the Jets right now, what do you think our record would be?

I think the Niners are a different world when it comes to offense.

In other words, they have a much more talented roster than the Jets?

Darnold has been given every chance to take that job away from Purdy.  Lance got traded away.  Purdy was hurt all summer.  He never seized the reins.

I don’t think Darnold is a strong counter to our takes here.

I find it very hard to believe that a Brock Purdy-led Jets team would have a legit chance to win the AFC East.

Brock Purdy is in the best possible  coaching environment while the Jets provide arguably the worst. I don’t think he would look nearly as good here.

I mean yeah but if that is your lone example it doesn’t win you the argument.   I’d argue the Jets are right there in that 2nd tier with a bunch of other teams on the roster strength list.

I agree that the 49ers have a way better CS than we do.

You came to a conclusion and are using confirmation bias in this thread to win an argument with yourself.  listen to Shane at least if you won’t listen to me. 

Meanwhile Joshua Dobbs beat the sane “loaded” Dallas roster we lost 30-10 to due to Zach.

I look at the Jets' roster and see a lot of talent but I'm starting to wonder if we're as talented as many of us (me included) think.

If you switched HC's the Jets would be in the SB hunt and the 49ers would struggle to make the playoffs.

It’s a talented roster with the worst qb in the league. That is a huge problem. Also coaching staff is prob bottom 10 in the league. 
 

I think the defense is a tad overrated but yea competent qb play the team would should be at 10 wins min. 
 

Zach may not even be in the league in a few years and looking back it will make sense why we imploded this year.

Like I said it’s in a large 2nd tier.  Niners are on their own in tier 1.  Jets have a very good roster.  Not great, since there are several holes at a few key spots.  Still good enough to win a lot of games with any semblance of QB play.

Yup. The team overall doesn’t have many tippy top game changing players. Sauce and Q are the best.

Bryce Huff is elite at a very important skill but doesn’t get the opportunity to do it enough.

Garrett Wilson is very good but firmly not a top tier doesn’t matter who the QB is WR. Breece Hall is extremely talented but not healthy. Alijah Vera-Tucker hasn’t had the opportunity to prove himself as an elite guard because of injuries and position changes. 

There’s no top tier edge rusher, just a bunch of very good ones. And when you’re not winning games and getting tons of pass rush snaps, the depth versus having a special guy doesn’t really move the needle because the guys coming in waves doesn’t help as much.

The rest of the defense is mostly composed of good veterans. The offensive line is largely below average. And the other offensive skill players are largely just guys.

Do you credit that more to the roster or the coaching staff?
