Just listened to the interview. Wow, even more pumped after hearing this quote from Logan on working with Chryst: "I tell you what, I called my wife the other night and told her I'm as excited right now as I've been in about 40 years of coaching."

This. And the fast start part after four years of last second crap

#49ers QB coach Steve Logan said having Geep Chryst as OC is "going to allow us to get off to a really fast start."

Can't wait. Just wash that Corvette and take it out to run...and don't screw it up!

They'll open the glove compartment and find the owners manual for a Model-T, look at each other with confounded WTF.... Then laugh hysterically when Chryst blurts... "Ahhh, previous owner"...

Hilarious!

Agreed you two. That's the part that stood out to me...his honesty about knowing right away whether or not it will be a good working relationship or not and how excited he is after meeting with Geep. This means he will have some serious say-so into game plans (i.e. drawing up the passing game) which was reported before and that it will be a goo collaborative working relationship/effort.

Just remember guys, Mike Nolan talked a good game. The "Nolan Way". Singletary "I want winners." "Physical with F." Sounds good, but we'll see. What kind of WRs are you gonna have? Is the Offensive line gonna be solid? What about the running game overall? Are they really gonna use the Seahawks as a model as to how they are gonna run things? We shall see.

Good points! In all honesty I was happy with our offense when we ran two TE sets with Walker and Davis.if we could find a legitimate replacement for Walker, Boldin and another fast WR out of that same set would be tremendous!

I agree. A real threat at 2nd TE. Would really help the offense. If we can get a burner at WR that's all we need.

But yes, they're all saying great stuff right now. I hopefull but we gotta wait to see what happens on the field. No coach comes in and talks about how much they're gonna suck the next year. Every team is a potential super bowl champ in the off season.

I actually think the Oline will improve if Iupati leaves. He just is over-rated. Great in the run, dead average in the pass protection.

Logan needs to get Kaep to shorten his release and make better decisions, once Kaep develops chemistry with his receivers and gets comfortable with the system, our passing game will finally have some rhythm and gain some much needed momentum , last season our offense sputtered the majority of the season, this cant happen next season or Kaep will more than likely be on his way out, and I for one don't want to see that

Me too...I'm ready for Iupati and Crabtree to move on. Don't even want. Hell, I'd be happy if the coaches made Boone win a job too. I'm even on the fence with Smith/Gore d/t drops in production and the fact that I want to see Hyde and Carradine. That said, I'd be happy to get Gore and Smith back...just more of a statement that I'm ready for the young guys to get their snaps and develop. They are ready.

J Smith is the only player on the niners that is almost impossible to replace. If he retires they will need to boost two positions to get the same level of defense. He's on a level with Deion Sanders, closing out an area of the field so the other guys don't have to worry about it. Really a remarkable player who plays run and pass equally well. How often did runners run through Justin? Never? Outside contain? Solid. Pushing the pocket and demanding a double or triple team? Always.

I agree that he may be declining a bit due to injuries but I'm going to be sad when he announces his retirement, whether it's this year or next.

A team can not just replace the leadership, heart, work ethic, will to win, etc. of Justin and Gore. However, you can replace their production. Justin had a good year but again, you only need to replace 43 tackles (lowest of his career), 5 sacks, 2 FF's, and 3 STF's. For reference, in 2013, Dockett had 46 tackles, 4.5 sacks and 10 STF's. In limited snaps last year, Carradine alone had 17 tackles, 3 sacks and 3 STF's.

He's ready! Ha...right on que: http://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/sports/Carradine-Could-Have-Breakthrough-2015-Season-for-49ers-295006851.html

"Carradine, in fact, was at his best over the final three games of the 2014 season as he got more playing time. Against the Seahawks in Seattle, he had two sacks; in the final game against Arizona, he had three tackles and a sack."

As to Frank, he ranked low in PFF with a -.8 grade and replacing 1,106 yards (lowest of his career) and a 4.35 average with only 4 TD's should not be difficult to do in a run-heavy offense like ours. Hyde alone averaged 5.7 yards. He's ready too.

It's just hard, emotionally, to move on.

Only thing I want to see from Logan is the moment kap steps off the field, logan is right there showing what he did great and what he did wrong. Kap did well with alex chatting with him as he came off the field. The entire time harbaw was here, rarely did I see someone come over and have a chat with kap about what just happened. it is really hard to teach yourself when someone isn't helping you. that is what I hope logan brings to the 49ers. The guy who breaks down what kap just did and helps him improve his mental aspect of the game , be it D recognition, holding the ball too long, running instead of passing , etc. It also could be the reverse of the above, depending on what actually happened. That is the Logan I want to see.

I have heard that quoted by Jed I believe also and I think that is an insult to the 49ers in a big way. We are the ones that did the stout D thing, running first, protecting the ball... We just didn't capitalize during the SB.

I hate hearing how the Seacawks are leading the way when I believe we have been paving the way.

Mike Nolan and Mike Singletary talked a good game but it was different IMO.... Nolan just spat empty promises in an articulate fashion, Singletary was just a big bag of cliche's and one-liners that lack substance and no plan. Steve Logan comes off as a guy that at least has an idea of what he's talking about, not just answering questions for the sake of answering them.
