Is Fangio really a better option than Manusky?

Given Barrows recent article about Fangio, it seems as though that the defenses under his guidance have regressed every single year. This begs the question, does Fangio really bring more to the table than Manusky?

If we kept Manusky, it would limit the turnover that the team as a whole is going to experience. Also, Manusky's main downfall has been the pass defense, but with an added cornerback through the draft, this facet could be tremendously improved.

Your thoughts?

I think the defense looked great in week 17 when Sing was finally gone

I was the cards, man.



And if it means we stop running the soft zone all game, I'm down for the change.

They were also playing the Cardinals, so it is hard to tell. Against any decent team, the defense has been picked apart.

But you can't take one week and think that will translate into things to come. You have to look at the overall picture. Plus it was the Cardinals.

To this question only time will tell. I can't say I remember Fangio's NFL defenses.

Manusky is clearly capable, I don't know why people would just say Manusky sucks without blaming the players that suck, outside of Willis/Spikes/Justin.

So for me Manusky vs Fangio, toss up.

I was thinking about that yesterday but at the end I would prefer ideally an ex head coach coordinator, a la mangini, nolan (don't kill me for that one but he is a hell of a coordinator), mora, someone who can help the coaching staff with his experience and that has a good track record as a coordinator...

if not a person like that, them I would prefer fangio, I love Manusky but that defense didn't look as advertised, we were 13 on total D which is not bad but there some call on crucial part of games that I really didn't like...

of course at the end I would like what ever Balkee and Harbaugh like they are day day in day out, they should pick the guy with the better "fit"...

All you have to do is watch the games. I can't tell you how many times we only rushed our 3 linemen, giving the opposing QB aaaaall day to pick apart our weak ass zone.

The only people on staff who should be retained are Tomsula and Schottenheimer, maybe Solari.

The way I look at it is if Harbaugh thinks Fangio is better than Im all for it. Niners finally have a capable coach for the first time in years. Im confident he will make the right hires for his staff.

it's time for a change. bye Manusky.

Tomsula for D coord imo.

If they are considered interchangeable then Manuski is probably better. Fangio won't change the system but he will bring a steeper learning curve about the defensive personnel as well as the league and especially our annual matchups. Fangio has been gone from the NFL for a while now. I think this may be a mute point if Manuski gets a chance to be a HC.

I believe we play a weak ass zone because our secondary sucks (nothing Manusky can do about that), with a lack of pass rush, Spencer, Goldson, Clements can easily be toasted.

Manusky adjusts by preventing the big play, and playing their game in the red zone with a goal to hold them to 3 points. Our corners are not skilled enough to play man-to-man on every down. So there is a reason to play a soft zone, or bend don't break. I personally don't like it either. But there's a logical reason for it, and you have to also hold players accountable.

This has been brought up by a few defensive players before.

I'd have to say so, and since Fangio has worked with Harbaugh, it makes for better chemistry. I think the main thing would be that Harbaugh is much more familiar on how Fangio would game plan.

i will take anyone over manusky.
