Kyle walks on water for most here at the zone. Watch out, they'll come for you!
Coached a bad roster to the SB twice.. and his coaching tree created a few HCs in the league.. yup Kyle is the problem lol

Remind us about the outcomes in those Superbowls ?

What's your take on Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson?

My take is they are not head coaches that squandered 10 point leads with bad decisions.

Yet you're good with Harbaugh? Guess who squandered a 10 point lead in the 2013 NFCCG?

And you not answering the question is exactly why your posts reek of trolling. Can't keep your logic consistent across the board then all you're looking for is a reaction.

I guarantee you, if we were to fire Kyle, within a year these same people will say firing Kyle was the biggest mistake this franchise has ever made lmao

This, and they would also be calling for the new coach to be fired after the first few losses

Harbaugh produced better results with a shorter leash. I don't see many posters saying it was the biggest mistake in franchise history firing him.

The reasons for firing harbaugh were valid and well documented. That's why nobody has said it was a massive mistake even though he never had a losing seasons.

The reasons for firing shanahan are similar in a way. they both appear stubborn and unwilling to change or learn from their mistakes. The difference is Brock >>>>>kaep so maybe that buys Kyle more time even though that's an absolute fluke he's on the team and saved them.

In a lot of ways harbaugh had less flaws. Harbaugh never ran his players into the ground as bad as shanny has to CMC. He also only burned a second in kaep and not 3 firsts like lance.

Shanahan is looser with the offense but harbaugh was much better at time and game management. Harbaugh let Roman be super conservative all the time but at least had the special teams and defenses that didn't collapse to win close games.

Harbs had the opposite problem with his teams in that they would never get going until the second half. Shanny's teams just collapse even though they start fast.

Williams? Even with Ginn hurt, tell him to get the hell away from any punt after fumble #1.

I'm with you. That loss 12 years ago still stings. The two SB losses under Shanahan have been really easy to get over. I completely got over the second one to KC last year before I went to bed that night.

Because you expect the choke. Harbaugh we won a ton of close games and had the ball bounce out way.

Shanahan you already expected the third collapse after the first 2

The 49ers were never beating the chiefs. Kyle gets conservative blah blah. This is what it is. Those harbaugh teams always played in a mean way and I loved it. Shanahan coaches scared. It is what it is.

Don't speak for other people.

Joe friggin Flacco man!

You can't go through those 49ers and Ravens rosters and tell me they were clearly better than us at any position group - maybe WR and we made up for it with an absolutely dominant 2 TE set with Vernon and Delanie.

Their defense was slow outside of Ed Reed. We were built to beat that team on both sides of the ball. We were 5 point favorites going into that game.

Personally the reason why I can't forgive that game outside of the stuff above was simple - it was the first SB i was watching as an adult. When I was a kid because we were winning that many I never really got to appreciate it. Since I live in the Boston area I typically root for the Pats when the 49ers aren't in the game. That year I was rooting for the Ravens because I felt it meant guaranteed SB win.

The fact that it was 28 to 6 after the opening 2nd half kickoff was absolutely nothing I expected to see. We had a miracle happen that allowed the Ravens to cool off and get us into position to take the game and we still blew it.

Seriously tell me when has Shanahan ever had the type of disaster we saw in that final drive within their 10 yard line.

Also I was working with a customer at the time who was a major b* and they forced me to stay behind and work while the rest of my company was having a fun meeting in warm weather and I was sick on top of it. I was in a super sh*t mood all that week after the game.

Going into the KC games nothing felt guaranteed. Not the way Mahomes was playing in 2019 and after how he burned us that SB, nothing felt guaranteed for this one. All the losses stung in a big way but for me personally that Ravens loss was actually coaching negligence. Not to mention John Harbaugh and Dan Pees aren't exactly Andy Reid and Steve Spagnulo levels as coaching.

Not to mention if ANY coach knew John Harbaugh better than anyone else...it would've been his younger brother.

I am a big fan of Harbaugh. I hated that they pushed him out. I love Kyle too. They are both great coaches. Both were highly successful with 49ers. I don't see what Harbaugh has to do with Shanahan. Just another thing for people to argue about on here?

Strawman argument brought forth by genus. Attack Kyle, and he instantly transitions to Harbs. Who gives a s**t about Jim Harbaugh. There are some posters that think he was a good coach, but I don't recall anyone posting they wish Jim Harbaugh was still our coach. Like Shanahan, he had his chance multiple times and failed. Was it Alex's fault? Yes. Was it Kaepernick's fault ? Sure. But at the end, he couldn't field a team that could win it all. A team that was talented at every level. So good riddance. Apparently the Shanahan fans can't come to grip with this when it applies to boy genius…

lol exactly. I think the fanbase collectively stomached last year's loss better than 2012 and 2019. We all knew that our only chance was to blow KC out. When Kyle went full stupid in that 3rd quarter not knowing how to put separation between us and KC, I knew we were f**ked. As I'm sure the majority of Niner fans were…

You have no clue what you're talking about. Why start now I guess.

Not a straw man when you and several other "Kyle sucks/can never win the SB" have no problem saying Harbaugh is a better HC.

And I'm not going to waste my time searching for it but I know for a fact some people have in fact claimed they wished Harbaugh was the HC now instead of Kyle.

So you're saying they shouldn't have paid at the time the best RB in football and the best LT in football. I mean using hindsight is super enlightening but I didn't see anyone complaining when they paid those guys.
No they shouldn't have given them anymore guaranteed money. Trent is old and misses more and more games every year. CMC just came off a great season with a lot of touches and was a year older. No. I wouldn't not have paid him anymore guaranteed money either. Paying older players usually doesn't work out well.

So then they miss games holding out im sure that would have gone over well.

not only that, you reward your guys like CMC. That guy gives it 100%

TW kinda screwed us with holding out, but he's still worth the money.
