Garoppolo not listening to 'noise' about 49ers making playoffs

Jimmy Garoppolo isn't listening to widespread talk that the San Francisco 49ers could earn a playoff berth in 2018.

"People always like to talk about the predictions with the season. Even when the season just ends, they start talking about it," Garoppolo told reporters on Tuesday, according to Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk. "It's all noise on the outside, but I think we have a good group that is locked in right now. We're focused on OTAs. We'll go into training camp, hopefully have a good training camp and take it day by day."

The 49ers have a projected win total of 8.5 for 2018, according to Bovada.

They finished the 2017 season on a five-game win streak in Garoppolo's only five starts since being acquired via trade from the New England Patriots.
