[QUOTE="Marvin49, post: 484160, member: 7068"] Wow. Really? ...and here I thought we were getting along. So I'm a "weak fan"? uh, what does that even mean? What I am is simply someone who disagrees with you. Why does that make me weak? I think you are still completely misunderstanding what I'm saying. This isn't about "our guys are pro bowlers, your guys aren't, therefore we can't deal with injuries". All I'm saying is that the 49ers depend on that great D much more than the Packers depend on their D because the Packers have the great equalizer in #12 in green. I think part of the problem is that you guys have gone SOOOOOOOO long while having a great QB (Favre followed by Rodgers) that you don't remember what it was like BEFORE they were Packers. I watched Montana followed by Young followed by....other guys. LOL. The 49er haven't had the great QB to lean on (although hopefully that's about to change). Tell me this....how good would the Packers be if Rodgers wasn't on the team? If he got hurt. Now imagine playing ALL of your games without Rodgers. Other positions have to pick up the slack. You have to win games in different ways. In the Niners case for 2 years that has meant allowing very, very few points and eeking out small victories. That has begun to change some this year. Why is it so wrong to suggest that when the defense is your best unit and the unit that wins you games that its players are more important than to a team that ALSO has great offense to offset the D's deficiencies? I watched the Niners all through the 80's and 90's so I've been on the other side of this argument. If the Bears lost Mike Singletary it would have been much different than the Niners losing Keena Turner. The Bears didn't have that offense...they won on DEFENSE. Finally...what do you mean I couldn't even face the possibility of playing without our precious pro bowlers? What does that even have to do with this? The original post was just about trying to equate a 1 to 1 comparison of who the Niners would lose if they had lost players at the same positions as the Packers had. I'm sorry if I don't think losing Willis and Gore is exactly the same as losing Benson and Bishop. Lets pretend for a sec that Alex Smith isn't on the team. Would the 49ers losing Kaepernick be the same as the Packers losing Rodgers? HELL NO. Why? The 49er rely on the run game and defense to win which makes Kaep LESS IMPORTANT than Rodgers to his team. Why does this make me weak as a fan? Logic? [/QUOTE]
