49ers Head Coach Kyle Shanahan Thread

The biggest issue i have with Shany, atleast on the offense side of the ball, is our running game. That is the focus from a play calling/ultization of players standpoint and it seems like we are getting worst evey year since the pinnacle of the SB run. Without the running game going we will not win a SB.

Also, there seems to be a trend of poor offensive product in the second half whether are winning or losing. I am not sure why other than Shany fails to make good in game adjustments.

Execution, on the other hand, not so much.

You two are twisting things here.

That's exactly what have said and continue to say. You buy into this ridiculous idea that the 9ers run a one read offense

The best choice is do what Nick did, see the free blitzer coming and shuffle away from it. Then hit the wide open Wilson. How come he can do it?

What? LOL. Are you and All on an alternate WZ we don't know about?

Even your take away on the KW video shows your total bias to singular thinking to the point even DJ had to question what video you watched. LOL.

Locked in. But carry on you two. Glad Afrikan made the thread on it or it would be washed away too with this silliness.

Carry on...

You keep carrying on that the offense is all about the primary read and QBs can't get off it based on what the coverage does like every other offense in the NFL. Or like rookie Nick Mullens did.

Maybe Kyle will call Masons name this week as the primary option with 36 seconds left. He loves making rooks the focal point.

But since I can't disagree with Kurt Warner I guess you will admit you are wrong about QBs not making O lines better? Greg Cosell said so.

Our 2 biggest issues on offense are that we have 12 turnovers in 7 games and we are bottom 5 in redzone scoring. If Shanahan gets those 2 issues figured, we'll be just fine.

Redzone might get figured out. Lot of it is blocking execution and better route running coupled with better qb recognition.

The other thing isn't changing anytime soon though.

I would also add in better playcalling in the redzone as well.

If Kyle installs built in checkdowns for Jimmy and we trade Wilson, those turnovers will go away.

I am surprised Kyle has even had a winning season as a HC, let alone coached in a SB and two NFCCG's with that super long laundry list of issues KW pointed out. He must be the luckiest MFer in the entire NFL.

When you lose your entire coaching staff and his BFF in Mike McDaniel of 14 years, this is the end result. It was far more efficient in the past even with some persistent issues overall including Jimmy.

Since this KW's video has come out. Folks including you are painting Kyle as so incompetent that he should find a new profession. As if it were McDaniel's and other coaches who have propped him up all these years. Players and coaches alike have given plenty of praise for his acumen as a play designer and play caller.

The fact of the matter is there are issues with this team and Kyle does deserve some of the criticism. But he lost his starting QB who he spent all off season installing a system for. A QB with completely different attributes to Jimmy. Not to mention a new offensive coaching staff who has had to do this same exact 180. I am sure it is not an easy task to ask your newly acquired staff to say throw all this s**t we did this past summer out the f**king window and start fresh mid season.

Nobody should be disparaging Kyle overall as a play designer. As an in-game play caller on his own now?

Fans are just recognizing there are far more issues than the QB position right now and they start and end with the HC. If Trey was starting, none of the listed issues magically disappear either.

That's the bigger concern.

I want Kyle to stay but these non-QB issues are real, ST is 29th, the defense has gone from historic highs to lows in a 3 week period, annual injuries continue to be a theme esp. going into big games, etc.

I know he's doing everything he can. I do know that.

So you are telling me that one game changes how you feel about a defense that has missing pieces plus guys who were just coming back from injury? This defense is still 9th in ppg allowed and 2nd in yards per game allowed inspite of that one terrible game. One big issue on defense besides the injuries was Nick Bosa and the Chiefs using his aggressiveness against him. There were also a variety of mental mistakes by multiple players. I would rather see how they respond than to be compulsive about one bad game.

I agree with ST's. It seems like no matter who we bring on the coaching staff or players we bring in through FA, the return teams and coverage teams continue to be an issue under Shanahan.

I disagree with the QB's being interchangable and that the same issues would be happening with Trey. Just for one example. Jimmy does need a quick outlet receiver/checkdown. It wasn't all that apparent in previous weeks because no one blitzed the s**t out of us like KC did. Having a built in checkdown every play isn't as necessary with a guy like Trey who is his own outlet/checkdown. I could give more examples of how things would be different with Trey, if you'd like?

Oh, as to the defense, no, it wasn't the injuries although no doubt, the loss of AA and Moseley were huge. My concerns are how the defense has been attacked from scheme. I think the Falcons and Chiefs exploited every one of those weaknesses. That needs to be oversighted by Kyle. In past years, he was able to sit down with Robert Saleh weekly and challenge his game plan.

I question whether that's happening right now given Kyle seems to be taking on everything himself right now. He seems overloaded.

on ST. This has seriously cost us.

I mean this list. Swap out "Jimmy" with "Trey" because you're still going to have Good Trey and Bad Trey despite their being differences in what the details look like within those buckets.

I'm speaking more to the rest of the list on just the offensive side; passing game only. Those aren't all Kyle either but he is ultimately responsible for oversight.

I'm dubious about the Jimmy part. I don't think playing like Alex Smith is in his nature.

We dont have the player personnel to be chucking it all over the yard in the redzone. Jimmy can only really throw the ball between the hashes and 2 yards past the line of scrimmage. This team needs to dominate the line of scrimmage and pound the rock. Got to set up play action. We have a bunch of high priced offensive players that are YAC/expect to block. This is the offense. So a 15 yard back shoulder to Deebo is not likely. Even the INT by Jimmy was a joke. Do you really expect him to throw a fade to the corner of the endzone on a zero blitz.

A lot of those issues should be grouped into the same categories but were listed in such a way to make the list seem longer than what it actually needs to be. A great tactic when used against those who are less informed.

I brought up one example of how the difference in QB's strengths or weaknesses change what is necessary when building an offense. The example I used was that Trey can beat pressure with his legs instead of needing a built in outlet receiver on every play. Trey also has no problem throwing the ball away when the play is beat. You know "live to play another down" mentality. This offense is tied for last place in throwaways. For example, the Bills are number 1 in that category. Trey also has great pocket awareness and has a natural ability to feel pressure. He also moves within the pocket well. None of those things come natural to Jimmy. So hence, we must install things into the offense in order to compensate for the QB's weaknesses.

I agree that redzone playcalling needs to be simplified and better all around. I also believe that route running needs to be more consistent and receivers need to better understand leverage on certain routes as was brought up by Jonny when referring to Brandon Aiyuk this past Sunday. It also seems like the only receiver we have that can beat press man coverage with any kind of consistency is Brandon Aiyuk. No, he is not perfect by any means but I don't expect him to win his route 100% of the time just like I don't expect the QB to complete 100% of his passes.

As far as the O line. Anyone believing this O line wasn't going to be a work in progress throughout the season were setting themselves up for disappointment. I do expect them to start to gel the second half of this season and have a more positive outlook on them going into next season.

Wow! You made quite an assumption about my redzone playcalling statement. Let me clarify what I meant. Shanahan needs to simplify the plays called in the redzone. Running the ball more in the redzone would be one example and it is one that you brought up. The other is the outlet/checkdown receiver that has been brought up in this thread over the past 2 days. This is where CMC comes into the picture. I believe Shanahan recognized and understood the redzone issues before last Sunday and is essentially the reason why Kyle and John made the trade for him.
