Back in March, the San Francisco 49ers were projected to the win the NFC West over the Los Angeles Rams, and here we are in May and guess what? Apparently, the 49ers are still expected to pass the Rams for the NFC West title.
I gotta be honest, I don’t get this take. Can the 49ers win the NFC West? Sure, they can. So can the Arizona Cardinals (or even Seattle Seahawks). Now, would I pick the 49ers to win the NFC West right now? No, even putting my bias as a Rams fan aside, I think the Rams are in a better position than the 49ers.
