Whisper it quietly, but the 49ers' most maligned unit might actually be a positive.
As a San Francisco 49ers fan since 2005, I've been used to some pretty poor teams.
Sitting in front of my television in the UK, I endured years of Mike Nolan, Mike Singletary (and his "winners"), and a general malaise around the Niners.
That was until January 2011, when now-Los Angeles Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh joined the team.
I'm not here to rehash that era, other than to say that one of the strengths (and there were many) of Harbaugh's units was the amount of complimentary football his teams played.
