Looking at the rest of the NFC West Womens Arik Armstead Jersey , one team was overly optimistic. You’ll never guess who...otes, they’re expecting whoever votes to be overly optimistic. The NFL Draft is over. There’s new hope for every team in the league. I was poking around the other NFC West teams to see which fanbase is ridiculously optimistic. There were two teams. You’ll never guess who. Here’s a look at the latest FanPulse numbers:You can sign up here if you also want to participate in future surveysThe Arizona Cardinals hired an offensive-minded coach, drafted an electric QB, and surrounded him with a couple of targets. That didn’t stop Cards fans from being level-headed. Arizona is likely to be much-improved, but that might not show much—if any, in the win/loss column.Hats off to everyone that voted. 35% of fans expect the San Francisco 49ers to win 8 or fewer games. The team gets a QB back from an ACL injury that has success in the NFL, and they surrounded him with plenty of new toys. They also acquired two big-time pass rushers. With that said, you can make a legitimate argument why the 49ers won’t surpass eight wins. If you’re wondering, I’m in the push category until things become more apparent after training camp. The Niners seem to be the trendy pick to bounce back. Five games is a big difference, even when you factor in the quarterback. Can the team get to nine wins is the question? 65% of fans voted over. That was the seventh-lowest total out of 32 teams.Only the Philadelphia Eagles and the Indianapolis Colts had a higher percentage of fans select the over than the Seattle Seahawks. So a team that gets Carson Wentz http://www.49erslockerroom.com/authentic-joe-montana-jersey , two new wide receivers, and playing in a division where each team has proved to be incompetent makes sense. I was already all-in on the Colts, but the Jacksonville Jaguars don’t have a quarterback, the Tennessee Titans think they have two, but you know how that saying goes. Then you have the Houston Texans, who have a shaky secondary at best with nobody to protect their quarterback. Both of those teams are probably going to win ten games.It wasn’t a secret that Seattle was going to be without Doug Baldwin and Kam Chancellor in 2019. The Seahawks replaced Baldwin with a wide receiver who couldn’t be further from his skill set. Their draft was underwhelming at best. Rolling into 2019 with the same QB/offensive line combo that was 30th in adjusted sack rate last year is a bold strategy. Let’s see if it works. I went through their schedule with a favorable mindset and came away with 7-9. It’s not an easy schedule. That didn’t stop the folks over at Field Gulls.Completely understand why Rams fans would be thinking Super Bowl again. Fans are hoping Jared Goff takes another step. Heading into his fourth year, he is who he is at this point. They drafted two of the most aware secondary players in the draft in addition to Eric Weddle. There won’t be the same type of coverage busts in 2019. I’d bet 11 or more wins, too.If you are interested in participating in our FanPulse survey, please click here! SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — A day after the San Francisco 49ers elected Richard Sherman as their player representative http://www.49erslockerroom.com/authentic-joe-staley-jersey , the veteran cornerback believes a lockout is coming when the NFL collective bargaining agreement expires.“It’s going to happen, so it’s not like guys are guessing,” Sherman said before the 49ers’ workout Thursday.The current CBA between players and NFL owners doesn’t expire until after the 2020 season, but there have been rumblings that players might dig in their heels in order to get certain economic changes, including more guaranteed money in contracts.Owners locked out the players for four months during the 2011 offseason, but the sides eventually hammered out a 10-year deal before the regular season was jeopardized.Sherman said he’s expecting a lockout this time around “because there was a lockout before. We don’t plan on changing anything about the deal we currently have right now … I don’t think it’s going to be negotiated before the end of the CBA.”That issue is for down the road. For now, the three-time All-Pro cornerback eagerly awaits his 49ers debut Sunday at Minnesota. After being released by Seattle in March, Sherman, 30, signed a three-year deal with San Francisco.He appears fully recovered from a ruptured right Achilles tendon that ended his 2017 season in November. But Sunday’s game offers Sherman his first true test to prove he’s still the same shutdown defender he was before the injury. And the opener comes against a Vikings team that expects big things offensively after signing quarterback Kirk Cousins in the offseason.So far DeForest Buckner Jersey White , Sherman has drawn rave reviews for the leadership role he’s taken with a young 49ers defense.“It’s inspiring just to play across from a guy like that that’s played at a high level,” cornerback Ahkello Witherspoon said. “I’ve always looked up to him, always thought highly of him. To be able to pick his brain just inspires me to take my game to the next level.”Asked if this week of preparation feels different given his new surroundings, Sherman replied:“I got my Kobe cleats.”Nike has a line of football cleats endorsed by former Los Angeles Lakers superstar Kobe Bryant, a friend of Sherman’s who offered the cornerback advice on how to rehab from an Achilles injury, since Bryant experienced the same setback.Sherman said he’ll feel butterflies when he takes the field for his 49ers debut, but he said it won’t be so different from his previous seven years with the Seahawks.“(There’s) always that rookie inside me. I don’t think it changes from your first year to your eighth year,” he said. “I think you always go into it knowing you’re gonna have a chance to do something special and you’re excited about the possibilities.”NOTES: Weakside linebacker Malcolm Smith (hamstring) participated in Thursday’s practice and is expected to be ready Sunday, defensive coordinator Robert Saleh said. … Saleh also said that rookie Fred Warner will start at middle linebacker.
