Will being on the sidelines improve or degrade Shanny's OFFENSIVE game management?

I thought KS said they want to dictate what the want to do on offense?

Plus KS also has help, puts a lot of trust in the QB to make the necessary adjustments

Big reason why he signed Hoyer. He already knows Shanny's offense.

It works for McCarthy...I don't think it'll be an issue. If it does become an issue though....has a HC who is also the play-caller every stayed in the booth during games?
I think I would prefer him to hire a good O/C and let them do their job.

better view from the booth. he should be up there if he's gonna be playing OC.
Serious question: If our offense struggles, do you think he brings in someone to be OC next season?

No, I think he brings in better players.

depends if its talent or issues with play calling

KS seems like a guy who always wants to get better. I think he might even bring in more people, even if we don't struggle

I cannot think of a head coach who did not stand on the sidelines. Anyone?

they are not allowed to. But there was one incident where Sean Payton injured his knee and was able to coach from the booth
Kyle has been raised in football. He got the best teacher, life with a dad that coached. Can you imagine the dinner table talks.... the I want to be like you dad bed time talks. Kyle got a heads up on coaching from childhood.

It's a given this offense will struggle this year, simply because there are so many rookies and first time 49ers on the offensive squad. So I don't think he will get another coach to take that over until kyle has that offense where he wants it.

As for playcalling, When Walsh got Holmgren, I think he eventually turned some play calling to him. Once Kyle gets an OC he is comfortable with, I can see him delegating the play calling to that guy, and that OC might be calling plays from the booth the way Mike Shanahan called it for Seifert.
Irrelevant question because there is no way he can be head coach from the booth. Technology isn't dependable enough to have the head coach and oc calling plays from the box. We've had head set problems before
non-issue. He addressed this in an interview and he said that last year was the first time he was in the booth. A good football mind knows what to call regardless of where they are.

Obviously thats not an option. Question is, will being on the sidelines improve or degrade the way he manages offense.

Hopefully it improves second half clock management and play calling in big games.
