Frankly, there isn't much to add to the concerns I expressed in my last post on September 4th just before the 2011 season commenced. The loss of Terrel Thomas totally changed the equation for the defense, and the inability to replace Steve Smith totally changed the equation for the offense (not just the passing game, because if you can't pass, then you can't run).
I will enjoy watching the rookies and younger players get their playing time, but this is not a team that has any real hope of making the playoffs, no less winning a SB in 2011. That wouldn't have been true but for the loss of Thomas and Smith (or more to the point, a fully healthy Smith). So, I will sit back and relax, enjoy the games, and watch with an eye towards 2012.
