Do you want to keep Michael Johnson as an OC next season?

Fire Sing. Release A Smith and Bring in Gruden. Let him pick his own staff and QB.
If he decides to keep Mike Johnson, so be it. He's done ok.

you knowgruden would probally keep smith
I think the only way this happens is if Jed hires Bilick. Mike was on his staff in Baltimore so there is a chace he would be retained. I like what Mike has done, but I think we just need a whole new philosophy.
Mike Johnson? are you guys insane? Raise your standards.

I agree with your reasoning on why he should be kept, but I think this is the same path that has gotten this organization in trouble. The team needs a structural rebuild and it must start from the top down. Starting with a new GM and so on. If the new HC wants him then that is fine by me.
The team could do worse, but they could do better too. I picked yes, but only because I could see Jed handing the keys over to somebody like the Bengals offensive quality control assistant.....whoever the f**k that is.

Basically, I don't trust Jed (or Sing for that matter, still possible he's retained) to find someone better.
just curious, who's still aboard this train??

Of course last night he was going up against Ron Rivera, one of the top DCs in the game but MJ took a BIG step back last night. He looked like the very inexperienced OC that he is.

OTOH, the SD defense is VERY good and the 49er offense is very limited. Now if the 49ers could get #83 to play for them...
NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I want Gruden or Holmgren game planning and calling plays and making the right adjustments durning the game....

LETS GET BACK TO OUR ROOTS!!!!

HELL NO!!

Just like Singletary, this guy is not qualified to be an NFL OC. The Niners should not be a "learn on the job" opportunity for coordinators any more than it should be for head coaches. That's a big part of how we've gotten to where we are as a franchise. Having an under-qualified head coach does at least two things to a team. (1) it ensures losses and chaos for the team as the coach tries to figure out what to do and how. (2) it ensures top talent will not stay while all the learning (in best case) and chaos goes on in the organization.

Mike Johnson is just a younger, inexperienced version of Jimmy Raye. The biggest difference between the two? Jimmy thought he knew everything. Mike knows he doesn't know anything.

Raye Jr needs to go along with the rest of them.
Status quo on anything with the 49ers staff staying the same next year is not looking very desirable right now.
