San Francisco is the EXACT SAME TEAM that finished last season 6-10. The only difference is they are 2011's "magic carpet ride team". Every year there is a team that catches every break in the book and covers almost every week, last year it was Atlanta. This year that team is San Francisco. They are 7-1 because of turnovers and a very nice schedule. That's it. Plain and simple. They aren't any better than last year, this year they are just catching the breaks. They are already +12 in turnovers which would put them on pace for I believe the 3rd best ratio in the last 10 years. They have already recovered 9 fumbles (the flukiest stat in the game) which is more than all of last season.
Sure they beat Tampa and Detroit but let's be honest neither of those young teams were in a position to compete at their best after both playing in and winning their first primetime home games in forever, especially Tampa Bay flying west on a short week. The Eagles gave that game away (fumble at the end and that horrible Ronnie Brown fumble at the goal line). The two Top 10 offenses they've faced this year have dumped 470 and 513 yards on this "great defense" but they also committed 5 turnovers.
San Fran is the biggest fraud in the league and it's not close. This week the ride may continue again as they get the Giants cross-country in their 2nd straight road game after coming back to beat the Pats. It's very tough to go against "magic carpet teams".
