What it's like to have Kyle as a coach.

Someone asked me "what stuck out the most about Shanahan to you?" in regards to my time with the 49ers.

Here's my response:

1. He's a learner and his willingness to accept that he doesn't have all the answers was glaring. He also would go to the ends of the earth each week to…

that's a vastly different perspective than the Kyle haters club lol. Shocking they have no clue who he really is

Ok, let's not get carried away.

I definitely give credit to Kyle for doing a very good job given the current circumstances, but this whole "let's all hold hands and sing Kyle's praises" nonsense needs to stop.

He still has to prove he can win the big one.

So do the majority of NFL HCs.

And I don't think people are saying Kyle is perfect. He has his flaws, it's ok to call them out - like his reluctance to really spend on the OL(though you can argue somewhat against that as well)

But simply give him the respect he deserves and don't be looking to change coaches simply because you're upset at him not being able to win those SBs(while ignoring that he was a big reason we got to those games in the first place)

You would think that we would invest heavily in a good OLine given the production he gets out of no name RBs, had a QB on a rookie contract, gets C-B+ wide receivers play like stars...why wasn't more invested in the OLine? I'm loving what he's doing this year, but they need to pump more money in the OLine and stop investing in other areas where the scheme covers up and masks a lot of things.

Exactly. The hypocrisy in this thread is telling. His fans will label, mock, insult etc all the ppl that criticize him, then follow up with posts and links that praise him like a Demi-God. Someone posts a link to Sherman praising Shanahan and it's followed by a thousand thumbs up replies. I post a link of Charvarius Ward calling out Kyle for screwing up the game plan in SB 2019 and he gets butchered for not knowing anything.

Shocking that a head coach has fans on a teams fan website. Shocking!!!!

So it's ok for you to label,mock, insult a head coach on a forum but when other posters do the same to you, you're the butthurt victim?

If you want Kyle fired or don't think he can win a SB you deserve to be mocked.

This. the reason no one takes anyone from the Kyle haters club seriously…is any football person with their salt would say Kyle is a good HC, only an emotional biased fan would think he should be fired.

Tossing out some crap link (which I don't remember seeing) about the SB in 2019 doesn't prove anything outside the fact they they're looking for any shred of confirmation bias to backup a s**t narrative.

Crying about lost SBs while most HCs don't even sniff an opportunity to get to one is such an entitled whiny take

These are the same "fans" who actually, seriously, genuinely believe that getting all the way to the Super Bowl and then losing is somehow magically worse than never getting there.

There's really no reasoning with someone who holds that kind of logic. It's like trying to argue with someone who thinks eternal nothingness is somehow worse than eternal damnation. Or someone who thinks 2 + 2 < 3. Or someone who thinks the sky is green.

To be fair... Robert Saleh is a huge reason for that record.

Offense has played well as well. Both Kyle and Saleh are a big reason for that.
