Have to accept that it's far more likely we would get worse not better.

We would get better. This team is getting worse, older and more injured and we are in year 9 now. Time for a fresh start and an innovative mind. Not a coach who has been figured out.

I wasn't trying to make an argument. I legit was curious as to who people preferred.

I can see the argument of wanting to move on. I for one don't think Kyle is the problem. I'm not sure there is anyone else out there that id personally rather have. Ben Johnson would have been an intriguing option however.

So do/did you have anyone in mind? Do you have a different offensive philosophy in mind? What would you look for in the next head coach?

I would take Ben Johnson over him for sure. Or coach Bill Belichick.

coach Bill Belichick.

What a troll lmao.

Not sure if he also knows that Ben Johnson is with the Bears right now
We could go after Doug Pederson, right? Because he's a SB winner and therefore a better HC than Kyle, right?
Lol sometimes this thread is like kids arguing at the park

I think Caleb Williams has got him pulling his hair out.

Matt Lefluer is 0-3 against Kyle Shannahan and the 49ers in playoff games, has 0 SB wins or appearances in 6 years including a time where he had a HOF QB, but now, in Week 2, it's time to talk s**t anonymously. Yeah, ok.

H2H isn't the only determining factor. It's not blasphemy for a person to think Lefluer is better.

Since 2019

Matt 67-33
Kyle 60-40

Neither one has accomplished winning a SB.
Bill Belichick won 6 Super Bowls. Shany never won anything. Yes I'd rather have Ben Johnson. I know he's with the Bears. But you asked for names so I gave them. Not regarding where they are now. McVay, Harbaugh and Harbaugh are also better among others. I'd take all of those above Shany. Andy Reid obviously.

So better record in regular season > better record in playoffs simply because neither won the SB?

By your definition, Jim and Johnson are chokers …and actually John has quite the choking record as well, but he's got a SB so I know you will pivot to that. .

But Kyle has got there. Twice.

LeFleur has also rarely been without his starting QB (I think just the 2 starts for Willis last year is it), which we know Kyle has had to navigate often.

Coach Jim Harbaugh won the NCAA Championship. He was also playing with KRAP and Al_EXCUSES. Amazing he made it as far as he did. Johnson hasn't had his full opportunity yet. Give it a little time.

so f**king predicable . Don't pivot to college and don't start making excuses with your infantile nicknames . You had no issue raking KS over the coals when he was an OC, so spare me. Start holding others to the same standard.

If Kyle went to Texas he'd win a title in 4 years ala Urban Meyer. Sure as hell wouldn't take him nearly a decade.
