The 49ers haven't had their starting QB the entire year. They have injuries. They lost Warner. They're still 6-3.

Everyone has injuries so to me it's not an excuse. If you have them, do you have the ability to stay afloat, overcome them and still win games? Or do you fall off a cliff? We've done the latter. Not only that but we've become a team that's not competitive.

Shanahan and Lynch have been together for 8 years and have had time to build depth. This group has been together for less than 2.
