Who cares about BS trophies. Get us a f**king Super Bowl ring, that's all that matters…

KS goes to another team and goes on a trophy streak.

Whereas I'm excited about the possible trophy streak we could go on after Kyle leaves ala Philly.

You have never once produced a name that would take the niners on such a streak.

Sure I did.

Sean Payton
Mike McDonald
Ben Johnson

Been saying them for years…

I don't buy the Ben Johnson hype at all.
He will have great offenses but do not trust his game management at all.

Payton has lost his damn mind.

Mike could be a great. might win the big one this year. (How many years ago did you mention him? or was that just this year? )

When they were available. Sean Payton many years ago.

Glad Kyle did not get it. He in no way deserved it. We won with all those injuries not because of his coaching but because we played a weak, 4th place schedule. His game planning for both Seattle games was atrocius!

I had a feeling the voters wouldn't be as impressed when they looked at the details. Like I've said I picked all our wins except the Rams win. Our record wasn't as shocking as it seemed when you really look into it

It's impressive that we didn't drop any games to the teams that we should have beat, but thinking this was some crazy accomplishment that no other coach could pull off is pretty hyperbolic

i disagree i dont know how many rosters couldve won with that our schedule ended up being right in middle of the road because 4th place teams like the bears, jaguars, panthers , and colts (prior to Daniel jones injury) were all pretty solid if not good teams

Also for the seahawks game i dont think it was bad game planning honestly there is only so much you can do we just didnt have the talent to compete

GTFO out of here….at one point in time we had something like $118M on IR. Big name guys. Played half the season with the backup QB and was within one game of being the 1 seed.

acting like that's not some amazing accomplishment is about as bias as it gets.

Mcvay without Stafford for a long time period went 5-12. Andy couldn't score more than 12pts this yr with Mahomes gone. Most GOOD HCs can't win meaningful games, let alone take a team to 12+ wins having to play their backup QB for half the yr…and that's no including the constant injures that SF dealt with outside of QB.

Kyle will never win COTY because his expectations are higher than anyone else at this pt. It's much like how the Kyle's hater club treats him…everyone knows he's a badass HC so he's "suppose" to win a f**k ton of games, regardless of what the roster looks like. No one holds the same expectations anywhere else. It's wild and incredibly ignorant.

Our SOS was identical to Seattle's…anyone saying we had an easy schedule it full of s**t.

Its a garbage award anyways when you look at some of the coaches that have won not just once, but twice

Mike Smith
Marvin Lewis
Jason Garrett
Ron Rivera(x2)
Matt Nagy
Brian Daboll
Kevin Stefanski(x2)

Bill Walsh won it just as many times as Matt Nagy and Brian Daboll.

Thoughts on Kyle Shanahan only getting 6 votes for NFL coach of the year 🤔 pic.twitter.com/KA2GsMp1VS

The voting in many ways has been a joke this year. I find it ironic that Shanahan has done things at a higher level that other coaches have won the award for but he keeps getting robbed.

Now it's basically a best turnaround award yet Shanahan didn't win it in 2019 when Harbaugh won it despite having Lamar win the league MVP(only to see them choke and go one and done in the playoffs)

Just like he didn't win it in 2022 after leading us to the #2 seed after seeing QB1 and QB2 that year go down only to see Daboll win it. Then dominate the regular season in 2023, only to watch Stefanski win doing something Kyle did in 2022 to a lesser degree.

Hope this pisses Kyle off and fuels him to do even better.

I didn't think they pulled anything incredible off. I picked them to win 99% of those games so it couldn't have been that unbelievable. Sorry just being real

We played 3 games vs Seattle. The only game out of the 3 where we werent decimated by injuries...we won.

I don't get some of you honestly. Just overreaction after overreaction. The only time all year Seattle or Rams had even a sniff of injury bad luck they looked like totally different teams. Who btw played virtually the same schedule as us.

The league sucked so bad nobody had a hard schedule. Ours wasn't either. We got garbage road game Bryce. The Colts when they sucked. Seahawks week 1 when even the Raiders beat the Pats. I remember most of espn picking us to win the Texans game. It looks crazier on paper than it actually was

It's a BS award that mostly given to first yr HCs. Stefanski winning it in 2023 because of injuries and lack of a year long QB is similar to what Kyle dealt with imo. I think it's f**king shocking that he was last in votes.

As I have stated numerous times before, when I started the playoffs thread and brought up getting the 1 seed, it was not because I thought we have an elite coach who can coach through the injuries but rather I saw a very easy schedule ahead of us.

So what you're telling us is you have inside info on Kyle Shanahan as a HC and have a better idea of his abilities than players like Richard Sherman or Logan Ryan who have played for top level coaches and won SBs with those coaches.

Just so you know we don't have an opportunity to win the 1 seed week 18 without beating Seattle and the Rams on the road earlier in the season. The Rams game alone was a coaching clinic, a game we had no business winning at all. But suddenly being outclassed by one of the best teams in the NFL this year while they're virtually completely healthy and we're missing our best players on defense and our best players on offense are either out or gimpy and that's what you want to look at?

k...

no one said it was hard all we said it wasnt some easy cakewalk schedule we all thought it would be at the beginning of the year. I just think its absoutly stupid to not pretend KS did a great job this year with all the injuries most players lose 1 key player and they pack it in we lost Brock for some of the year, Pearsall for most of the year, our first rounder, Bosa, Warner , pretty much all our LB to start the year and we somehow were in contention for the #1 seed

i feel like its pointless to debate this with people who are not going to pretend this wasnt a great coaching job i feel like people are just trying to validate their own opinion rather than admit they're wrong
