Daboll seems like a no-brainer to me. Shanahan and Sirianni both had great seasons, but have so much more in the cupboard and came into the season expecting solid years.
Daboll inherited a 4-13 dumpster fire and produced a 9-7-1 Divisional Round playoff team that played smart, hard football.
I went with Pederson, taking over after the short term disaster of Urban Meyer, guiding a young team to the playoff finish line with a 5 game winning streak, winning a first round playoff game in which most had the Chargers picked and dancing with the Chiefs for 3 quarters.
Not hard to make a case for Pederson. But Daboll did almost the same thing and he did it with a QB the Giants were ready to send packing by the end of the previous season. That’s why I went that route.
Shanahan by a mile for me. He did it with Lance, Jimmy G, and Purdy. The last may be the most impressive feat of them all. Daboll and Pederson are both excellent candidates. But the obituary on the 49ers season was written twice. Some are still waiting for the clock to strike midnight on them. But they keep winning.
We are all excited to experience the announcement of draft selections IN REAL TIME TOGETHER. If you feel the need to be the first to 'blurt out' the team's picks you are better off staying out of chat and sticking to Twitter. Please refrain from announcing/discussing our picks until the official announcement has been made at the podium. Thanks!
