The Niners just snapped an eight-game losing streak and remain the worst offense in the NFL by a wide margin. But apparently they are a trendy pick this week. Niners Nation takes a look at the Scouts Inc. preview of this week's game against the Panthers, which conveniently ignores the past two months of futility this team foisted on its fan base. And the typically down-on-the-Niners Peter King expects them to stuff the Panthers for a second straight road win.
What the hell is going on here? Has everyone just been mind-wiped or are we really that gullible. This team's offensive problems can't be swept aside with one win. Can we also forget the more than troubling 484 yards of passing the secondary, the team's supposed strong point, gave up last week?
This is a matchup of two of the NFC's biggest disappointments this season. It will be interesting to see if the offensive explosion from last week carries forward into a winnable game, or if the Dilfer-led O regresses to previous form. I'm not holding my breath at this point (there's no reason to), but am hoping for an entertaining contest. Hopefully that isn't too much to ask.
