That was not 2 even teams today at all

HOW do you not see that, cause we didn't have BOSA?

HC: SF
Coaching Staff: SF
Injuries: Tie
QB: TB
RB: SF
WR: TB
TE: TIE
OL: TB
DL: TB
LB: SF
DB: TB
PK: SF
P: Tie
ST: TB

agree??

You haven't realized the 49ers are the only team that can use the injury excuse? But I don't agree with your list. Kyle is a better HC.
I did GIVE the advantage to Kyle... look at the list on top... HC: SF ... si?

Same old posters posting like this team is 2-4 with a fully healthy roster when the reality is half this team is out injured and somehow we are sitting at 4-2.

need to realize that we are a FALSE 4-2...

the 2 wins were due to Bosa's sack and D play..

There's nothing wrong with acknowledging that this team can't win the SB this season and that we should sit tight at the deadline (or even sell).

This teams SB chances don't look great right now but we are still a 4-2 team while the same old posters think the answer is a new HC when the current HC has been part of the reason why we are 4-2 and not 2-4.

Fair. I agree that any talk of firing Kyle is idiotic.

Best case scenario:

Saleh will likely be around for another year. The chances of Kyle winning a SB this year or the next are…well let's be honest…is zero.

Get rid of Kyle. Promote Saleh to head coach. Get McDaniels back here as OC (Kyle and McD make great OCs but bad head coaches), maybe we luck out with Demeco back here as DC and now you have a coaching group we can work with.

Pretty sure I saw you putting the defensive breakdowns on Shanahan in the game thread…but you think promoting Saleh to HC is the answer?

The team is 4-2 with crazy injuries. Both loses were within reach. Both of the season ending injuries were awful luck that have nothing to do with playcalling or strength training. Just pure trash luck.

You have nothing to back up your anti Shanahan claims this season. Nothing. So you're coming in here to instigate and rile up fans with nothing behind your takes.

Are you making veiled threats again because I don't agree with your stance ? I got a 6 month ban last time time because your disagreement with my take on Kyle constituted "riling up fans". I guess my opinion on promoting Saleh to HC at some point doesn't sit well with you, so again you're using it to label me an instigator. You could do what some of your predecessors have done and not microanalyze each and every post in each and every thread that you post in.

Just a suggestion…
Let me first of all say I am NOT on the "fire Kyle" train. Never was. And it'll take a lot more to get me there.

BUT

I'm officially done with this regime getting to play the "injury excuse" card. I'm sorry. But this is officially no longer bad luck or "something every team deals with" anymore. There is straight up something fundamentally wrong with what we are doing. And it's with multiple training staffs now (we fired our staff after 2020, no?)

In 2017, we lost Staley and CJ Beathard getting knocked out is what led to Jimmy G playing in the first place.

In 2018, we lost a key free agent signing in McKinnon before playing a single down. Lost Jimmy early in the season.

In 2019, $50M+ in cap space in Dee Ford, Kwon Alexander, Joe Staley and more were sitting on the bench for the bulk of the regular season.

In 2020… no comment.

In 2021, I don't remember too much but maybe someone can correct me. I do remember needing to play Trey multiple games because Jimmy was hobbling.

In 2022, we lost literally all of our QB's. The one we traded our future for didn't even last two games.

In 2023, things were mostly fine but we lost Hufanga and we all know how unnecessary Greenlaw's injury was.

Last season, we lost McCaffrey and Aiyuk for most of the season.

And now? We have literally $150M+ APY and a key 1st round rookie sitting on the bench.

This is NOT normal. It just isn't. We are fundamentally doing something wrong and it needs to be fixed. Other teams don't just lose all their stars for large chunks of time on routine plays like we do.

P.S. My wife has Ehler's Danlos syndrome. She says this team needs a new trainer again. She's available for hire! She knows how to deal with dislocations all the time!

Kyle was on his way to be the Coach of the year; He had us 4-1 with Mac Jones and WRs who were role guys at best. Freak injury to Fred, Bosa ACL, and with all of that we were still in it midway through the 4th. How anyone could pin this on him is crazy
I probably have been the biggest shanahan hater on this site. I was 18 when the niners won their last superbowl. Im now 47. No coach can overcome what has happened to the 49ers this year. He is doing as good as any coach can given the circumstances. The injuries are devastating and non-stop. Two years in a row.Ive essentially lost count at this point.

THere is a hex on this team.
hearst injury
kyle williams fumbles
bowman injury
redzone vs ravens playcalling
jimmy g acl
the 3rd down mahommes play
bosa acl
lance ankle
tartt drop
purdy ucl
greenlaw achilies
mccaffrey calf
aiyuk acl
purdy toe
pearsal knee
kittle hamstring
bosa acl again
warner ankle

Its absolutely incredible.

Not veiled. You got a long timeout for this already so this isn't new information for you. And it wasn't from me so stop with the "if you disagree with me" crap.

There are plenty of posters in here who disagree with me who make an effort to add why they feel the way they do and don't come in with over the top statements that get extreme reactions from
other fans.

What is your logic for bashing Kyle after this 4-2 start given what's going on with the team injury wise? Heck your own logic doesn't even add up which makes your Shanahan takes feel even more like trolling than honest takes.

Now if you said what you did after a critical coaching mistake at least that would make sense. You didn't. I don't want to have to give warnings to other posters who are reacting to your absurd takes when you can't even be bothered to put anything behind them.

What is it about Saleh that screams SB winning HC to you?

People have been talking about Kyle doing his best coaching job with how things have been going down and you're in here claiming he needs to be fired. That's either trolling or insanity. You choose.

The two biggest injuries this year have 0 to do with training staff.

Also what 1st round rookie is on the bench?
