I get that CMC is an All-Pro but if he keeps getting 30 touches per game he won´t be healthy in january.

This is what no Shanahan jock lickers will admit.

Mason comes in when games are on the line and every person on defense is loaded against him...and he gets like 6 yards per carry and kills it. USE HIM and spell your biggest weapon. He already got Lance and Deebo killed (Jimmy was his own fault).

Tune here is a lot different if he gets CMC hurt. And Purdy made that play on the bootleg. god bless this f**king kid.

The f**king division is on the line. Of course he wants to use our best players. CMC made an impact on all 3 TDs cause of his presence alone. Yall b***h about Kyle being conservative yet complain when he gives our best players the ball...

Conservative playcalling and needless overuse of specific are two entirely different things. It's not like we have an offense bereft of talent and we were forced to do this like the early days of frank gore. We have Juice and Mason in the backfield alone. He drafted TDP high who doesn't even suit up most times.

Aggressive is taking that 4 and 2 you got the offsides call on and running with mason or doing a bootleg with purdy and making them pay. not punting away like a soft b***h. He needs to show more faith vs just trying to impose will, blowing important drives with obvious three and outs, and stop continually leaning so hard on his defense to do it all.
I love my coach.

That punt only netted 22 yards after it went into the endzone.

He's the only coach dumb enough when it's a short field to actually take a penalty and make it harder for the punter to keep the ball in play. Hell most coaches take a delay of game penalty just to get some space.

CMC should not get the carries up the gut. He's not good at it.nhes never been good at it. There's no reason not to use mason.

Shanny needs a leash and someone to reel him in. 90% of the time he's fine but then he makes completely boneheaded like should not be an NFL coach decisions. IE see above.

I'm generalizing when I say this, but CMC has 32 touches because he's on the field and he can run 100% of the entire playbook, and that includes all the passing game options, and he can also pass protect. Mason only has 4 touches because he can run dive, counter, inside zone, and outside zone, and that's about it.

Jordan Mason's YPC does indicate he should get more, but it's frankly a decision on how to best attack the defense and it appears Jordan Mason is still limited in what he can bring to the overall offense. The only major time he's really come in is in the obvious running situations.

In the two full games where we had Elijah Mitchell, a starting-level RB that knows the offense:
  • Against the Cardinals, Mitchell had 9 carries, while CMC had 7 carries and 7 receptions.
  • Against the Chargers, Mitchell had 18 carries, while CMC had 14 carries and 4 receptions.

In that case, it was a more equitable share, and it's unfortunate he went down.
I assume and hope that Mason's usage will grow though. Even though he's only shown the couple run concepts he can run, he's damn good at running them.
We sweep the Seahawks and clinch the division on their field in convincing fashion, are on a 7 game win streak with the last 3 won with our 3rd string rookie QB. And here we are with dudes in here still finding something to b***h about regarding Shanahan. Unreal

The funniest thing is that just a few minutes ago, I was getting some food so I was listening to the radio, and this was a national radio slot that had call-ins, and someone actually called in to basically say that Shanahan is a wimp and we need someone more aggressive like Brandon Staley or ideally someone even more aggressive than that

wow thats like whole other realm of stupidity lol
Crazy how we have so many that call an actual NFL HC who won his div dumb but yet they're behind their phones or computer. Why aren't they coaches of a team since they know so much how to run a team. F**king clowns
I love my Coach.

I can see why some would critique though I even critiqued in the thread lol, hes does have some minor flaws that can easily be fixed.
Am I the only one who finds it rediculous that Kyle is getting critisized for not giving Mason way more carries than he does? He's the backup RB. In what universe does the backup get just as much playing time as the starter if the game has not been decided yet? Grant ofcourse is the worse for this as he actually thinks Mason should get more carries than CMC. If the game is still on the line the starters are going to get the majority of the work. It's just the way it is. Especially when that starter is an all-pro. And I like Mason, I think he is a good RB but he is still the backup. I also think Kyle finds it very predictable if Mason is in the backfield, The defense knows he is getting the ball. At the end of the game it doesn't matter because the defense knows you are running the ball anyways, Whether you have Mason or CMC back there.

If CMC is not on the field, Defenses likely know you are not passing the footballl. As he is your best receiving threat.

All in all, it's silly. Depending on the score, what quarter it is, how much time is on the clock, down, and distance... Shanahan will send out certain personnel with CMC, and the defense will send out their own personnel.

More than likely, Shanahan probably calls a run play because he saw that maybe the other team sent out a defensive back instead of a linebacker, or he liked a matchup. Likewise, if they sent out a linebacker, he calls a pass play and motions CMC to the slot. He can even set-up motions where he moves CMC around and it opens things up for other people. There are so many different ways that he can attack because he has CMC.

Meanwhile, you trot out Jordan Mason, he can probably just call standard run plays and that's about it. It's obvious we're going to call a running play, and it's unclear where we even trust Mason in pass protection, or if he has any ability in the NFL passing game. In the one drive where he did spell CMC before the final drive, Jordan Mason rushed for 1 yard, Purdy was sacked on the next play, and then we got stuck with 3rd and long. The offensive series with Mason just didn't have the same rhythm as when CMC is in the game.

But I do feel that we need to get Jordan Mason more up to speed, because he's proven to be very effective in the small package of plays he can run. He's definitely a talented runner and someone that should get more touches.
Majority of poster bashing Kyle, and I would agree on certain points.

The point of my post is that Kyle in his interview gives CREDIT to his players for executing because he could call all the plays he wants, but if the players don't execute it means moot.
