Get out of here with that. I'm tired of this crap. Sing is gone when Sing is gone. That time will come at the end of the season. But right now, our Niners are still playing for the playoffs. And, I don't know about you, but I love my team and I want them in the playoffs. As a fan, I will be cheering them on to beat the Rams. Let's Go Niners!!!
And I'm tired of this crap. Make no mistake, I'm not under the delusion that if we DO go to the playoffs that Jed will retain Sing. I know he's gone, barring a superbowl win. I just don't understand how anyone can't see that it's almost more embarrassing to make it to the playoffs at 7-9 than to not go at all.
Couple that with the fact that once in the playoffs we WILL witness a heartbreaking, soul crushing loss where we are dominated by a much better and much more well-prepared team, it just doesn't sound that fun.
What do you expect to happen? That the 49ers will 'find themselves' if they somehow get to the playoffs? That one of the Smiths will FINALLY step up to the plate and QB this team successfully? That we might just "gel" and become dominant? Our defensive secondary will finally start stopping some teams? Are you kidding me? Isn't that what we've been hoping for every week this season, and yet somehow, each loss manages to crush us worse than before?
It puts us out of position to draft a difference maker next year. NOT going to the playoffs means we draft 8th overall. GOING means we draft 21st. More winning in the long term > false hollow victories with a doomed staff that has no future/potential.
Sing himself will never be a good coach, unless the last nail is placed in his run-up-the middle coffin once and for all. He needs to learn in a humiliating and shameful way that he knows very little about coaching winning football. This one isn't related so much to the 49ers, but there is a revenge factor tied into him ruining this season and running (literally) the 49ers into the ground.
There is obviously a regime change coming next year and I want to use these next games to evaluate other talent on the roster. Nate Davis? More Anthony Dixon? It would help us out in terms of knowing what we are doing this off-season.
Is that enough? Do you want me to keep going?
Look, I hear you on everything you just said. I am tired of the losing too, and I would also like a new head coach to come in here and better the franchise. But in my opinion, you play for today. I would hope that our team, regardless of whatever the situation is, just goes out there and plays there best and tries to win every game. Even if we are 2-13 and its the last game of the season against the Patriots. I'm a fan who loves the 49ers. Changes will happen, the draft will be what it is... but on Sunday, I'm doing nothing but rooting for a Niner win. Call me a blind optimist or whatever have you... but I will never hope for failer.
