The 49ers needs at least 2 serviceable linemen. They need a legit backup to CMC to take the load off if he's not 100%. We only have one TE. Deebo is out so we go into the season with JJ and Pearsall as our starting WRs and no one else. Juice will likely be out. And Kyle hasn't changed his scheme in the 8 years he's been here.
What makes you think we're about to get an unstoppable offense next year. The only positive I see is that maybe we can have fools gold with an easy schedule and make the playoffs. And then what ? Get stomped by teams like Detroit, GB, Philadelphia, Washington, maybe Tampa Bay ?
this team has done a horrible job of staying young since 2021. We're an aging team. We're a slow team. Too many holes on offense and defense to make a serious run. We're about to go into mini rebuild mode one year from now, and it will start with getting rid of Kyle and starting fresh. The current iteration of this team is over.
How do you quote someone and then still claim they said something they didn't? Who said they expect an unstoppable offense?
You may have your issues with Kyle but when his team wasn't gutted by key injuries his offense has been top 10 every year. Acting like they're going to go into the season with the existing roster is certainly something.
Maybe they're going to add some players in the offseason??
The holes on offense are nothing major unless Trent Williams retires. They most certainly can tread water with CMC, Kittle, Pearsall, JJ, Cowing and rookies or FA additions while Aiyuk gets back.
Defense may have more holes but if they can get Greenlaw back they'll be easy to patch up with this draft class being deep on the DL.
There is no need to act like the roof is caving in until it actually does.
