I see this years team like the Golden State Warriors | Page 10

707Niners · 2015-06-15T13:59:37-07:00

The Niners have had a ridiculous amount of talent that hasn't been properly used in the passed 4 years, mainly on the offensive side. Similar with the Warriors, so what did they do? fired there coach and brought in a whole new coaching staff with a whole new scheme that emphasized ball movement, and a faster pace on Offense... The Niners are emphasing ball screens, hurry up offense, downfield play...things that we have all been wanting, which will finally open it up, because as good as our Defense has been, ur not Winning a Championship if ur Offense is one dimensional....I see this team finishing Top 10 in Defense and Offense this year, with the Leadership of Bowman, Aldon, Bethea, Dockett, and Reid on Defense and to go along with Kap, Vernon, Boldin, Staley on Offense this team can be special this year.....a lot of media people are doubting this team, and I know I'm a fan but I see a great deal of talent and all they need is a solid system and if the staff can provide that, then watch out.

Maybe that's a GOOD thing?

Overall, I agree. Foerster/Wolford have their work cut out for them and Geep/Logan are going to have to scheme very well to combat any weaknesses we have (hence the additional focus on tempo and check-downs and asking the OL to slim now and get more athletic - screen passes).

Ill miss Iuptai's runblocking but Im stoked to not see him completely let a lineman fly by him again in pass pro. If you want to see lazy, watch Iuptai passblock.

Some intangibles that make me hopeful:

The Front Office/Ownership undermined the coaching staff last year. This was huge and impacted every player on the team

New coaching staffs in the NFL traditional get a bump from team play/players
Receivers that can take off the top of a defense (not having so many DBs cheat up not worried of that threat) Smith,Simpson,White
Will most likely throw screens and more short passing game (Bush/Hunter) to counter some aggressive pass rushing.
Less predictable offense (Roman so often ran up the middle between the tackles on first down and left us 2nd 8/9/10/11 obvious passing down). Proof is hiring a coach to point out your predictability. Many say the NFL DC's have figured out Kap. I think they figured out Roman.
I like to think it will be hard to be as bad in pass protection no matter who we start on the OL or see as many dropped passes as 2014 (even Bouldin dropped a couple).
We have the best edge rushers in years (rejuvenated Smith, rejuvenated Brooks, Lynch and Harold) which will help any shortcomings of the DBs

But so many things have to come together. While most of the National Press have concluded all our changes are negative. For them all to come together is more possible than probable.
