The problem was that in our rough division we didn't get home advantage like the Niners did in their easy division all the time. If you read my thread on why Art Monk should be in the HOF you'll see why Jerry Rice had such big stats. Rice basically owned the Saints, Falcons and Rams (more than half his stats against those 3 teams).
