What really scares & makes me anxious so much is the fact of being banged up at the wrong in opportune time.  That clinching 1st round bye couldn’t come at the best moment.  Question now is, shall we go with Gardner minshew vs saints, to let "The System” fully heal & be ready for the postseason… or let QB1 get some needed action to make sure we get that bye?  No team really scares me at this moment,  all of them are all exploitable & beatable.

Just the 49ers in the NFC.

49ers have the same record as Dallas (11-4), but unlike Dallas whom lost last week to the Jaguars the 49ers haven't lost in over 8 weeks.
The 49ers Defense has allowed the fewest points in all of the NFL with 230 and their offense isn't bad either.

The Eagles now have to play out the season without RT Lane Johnson and Nickel CB Anthony Maddox, with other players playing thru injuries like AJ Brown's ankle for example. The Eagles should probably bench all the starters after defeating the NO Saints this week. 

They need to play starters against saints and clinch then rest starters

hit the turnpike, fluffer

Gannon scares me more than any other team in the NFL.

It's not who- it's what scares me. Injuries.

Why is it that we have just as many Pro Bowlers on our D as the 9ers but our D is much worse?

Injuries and poor playcalling/no in game adjustments

Maybe quality of opponent. Other than Herbert and Mahhomes (who blew them out) what qb/offense have they played would be considered above average? 

I was curious to see how they would play against LV but Carr is out.
 

This team isnt getting past 49ers defense

This team just got beat by a good Dallas football team after scoring 34 points. Any team scares me if we give up 4 turnovers, think Gannon is great, and field a secondary like a sieve.

Because the Pro Bowl is a popularity contest, not a contest of merit.

Agree 100%.

Minshew throwing picks scares me. So does abandoning the run to throw it 40 times against one of the best Pass Defenses in the NFL. 

 

The Eagles. They scare me the most at this point because they are crumbling fast.

Everyone.

The injuries are killing them and Hurts being out shows how average many of the players around him are. You know what’s funny? People worked so hard to downplay the importance of Hurts last season to that team while ignoring the fact he took over a 4 win football team to begin with. People talking about Kelce being the MVP of that team. Yeah Kelce played on the 4 win team too or did everyone forget him Ertz, and Wentz were all sitting after the Washington loss?

Kelce I think is the emotional MVP. Hurts is by far the physical MVP.

Not to try and downplay Kelce, rather I’m promoting Hurts. He’s the guy and he has been for a while. 

What really scares me is the scheming and game planning of this coaching staff. This goes all the way back to the game in Chicago. The Birds ran all over the Giants in NY and yet they played terribly and forgot how to run the ball in Chicago and this inevitably lead to Hurts injury. YES, I believe it is the coaches fault that the QB got hurt.

They go into Dallas needing 1 win to clinch everything that matters and just like the Chicago game plan they forgot how to run the ball. Minshew threw the ball 40 times with only 4 targets to Goedert and far too few hand-offs to the running backs. 

Today they continued the same stupid arrogant game plan and forgot to run the ball, but even worse, the team didn't get off the bus and into the Linc until the 2nd half. This loss isn't on Minshew, it is squarely on this inept coaching staff!!!

The 49ers.
And this Coaching Staff. 
And injuries.

PhlliyDan has great points in his last paragraph.
