After three months of catastrophic injuries, identity crises, and the kind of week-to-week roster shuffling that usually ages a fan base in dog years, the 49ers are no longer just fighting for oxygen. They are staring down a legitimate, realistic path to the No. 1 overall seed in the NFC. Yes, seriously. Stop laughing.

Football is fickle, and these projections account for each team’s schedule moving forward.
