The San Francisco 49ers have seen better days. This offseason they have seen multiple starters decide to suddenly retire from the game of football despite being in the primes of their career, and they have suddenly found themselves staring at huge rebuilding project.
It certainly doesn’t help matters that the franchise is breaking in a new head coach after deciding to part ways with Jim Harbaugh shortly after the end of season.
Despite all this the recently acquired Darnell Dockett is still confident and optimistic that San Francisco will win this year despite the adversity they are facing.
Don't ask me about who's retired and what's going on with football this and that…. We will still WIN! Just watch! #savage #adversity

Dockett has never been one who lacks confidence, so this isn’t at all surprising if you have seen any of his previous antics.
While I appreciate someone with confidence, I think they Niners are facing a very steep uphill battle as they now lack several pieces that would have helped them significantly in 2015. On top of that they are in arguably the toughest division in the entire NFL, so given those circumstances making the playoffs seems highly unlikely.
