    David Blough and the Offensive Staffing Thread

    I think there is a decent argument that if you returned the same offense on personnel, but healthy, and they were able to remain relatively healthy for most of the season, the offense would go right back to being good. It doesn't mean I don't think we shouldn't upgrade in spots and round out...

    The HC Dan Quinn Discussion Thread

    The Tomlin era of the Steelers was about like the Braves of the 90's.....always good enough to be in the conversation, but only great enough to win a single argument, and it's arguable the Super Bowl he did win had a large amount of the core team handed over from the final years of the Bill...

    Imagine Tomlin ending up in Baltimore.

    The HC Dan Quinn Discussion Thread

    The fact that the NFC only features one elite QB this season shows the importance of having an actual legitimate roster. The 49ers are into the second round of the playoffs after a season of key players missing significant time, some out for the season. Injuries can definitely make a season a...

    David Blough and the Offensive Staffing Thread

    I was actually wondering what Darrell Bevell was up to before we promoted Blough.

    David Blough and the Offensive Staffing Thread

    The bigger question is whether Quinn himself is now officially on the hot seat and what it means for the coordinators chances of being here long term if Quinn isn't extended and/or doesn't even make it to the end of his contract. Is the front office trying to approach this under the assumption...

    David Blough and the Offensive Staffing Thread

    I am not sure if this is a Shanahan trend or more of a Shanahan tree trend but it seems like situational playcalling is a big issue. A lot of these OC's look good when everyting is rolling and firing on all cylinders but for example yesterday in the Packers/Bears game....the second to last drive...

    Random Commanders Thoughts

    Stafford is the only elite QB in the NFC Playoff field this season. Eagles vs. 49ers just further reiterated to me how neither of those QB's are in that same category.

    The HC Dan Quinn Discussion Thread

    The Quinn hire never enamored me tbh. I thought at the time Quinn was brought in to more or less be the "get right" experienced coach that you might not necessarily win it all with, but will help building the foundation and getting some pieces in place. I sort of likened to Rivera, where there...

    David Blough and the Offensive Staffing Thread

    Promoting Blough from within, relatively quickly, especially when there are some legitimate experienced names out there available....combined with Blough being pretty young.....tells me that this may be the first part of a bigger plan for Blough, should he turn out to be noteworthy at OC.

    The HC Dan Quinn Discussion Thread

    I kind of see the move to replace both coordinators as a warning shot to Dan Quinn. Sort of a way of saying, you didn't make it work with these two other guys, you be better make it work with the two new guys. I guess the question is how long the leash is because say things go sideways the the...

    I am not sure how stout the Shanahan tree is if we are referring to the Kyle Shanahan tree. The Mike Shanahan tree produced a lot of future coaching & coordinator talent but has tree replenished it's roots and sprouted another new generation as of yet?

    Kliff. Are you breaking up with me?

    I saw an article that was suggesting the heat on Kliff was coming from Adam Peters, specifically regarding JD5's development. Perhaps it had to do with a lack of progression from season one to season two, not much in JD5's skills or ability, but maybe the style of play, the lack of evolving...

    The first Jayden Daniels Super Bowl window has shut. Hard.

    If you grade 2024 as an A- and 2025 as an F....it averages out to a C- to C+ from the organization so far and given the fact that the entire operation top to bottom was turned over before last season, I think most people would see C+ results through two seasons as expected when you are pretty...

    The first Jayden Daniels Super Bowl window has shut. Hard.

    For me it's not the guaranteed money but how much he will likely be asking for. I actually wouldn't be shocked if he ends up back in SF tbh. They are going to go into next season healthy with a roster that even injured & banged up was able to keep a float for enough of the season to set...

    The first Jayden Daniels Super Bowl window has shut. Hard.

    Even beyond the Terry (true #1 or not) debate, you have Deebo who is still a productive WR with the ball in his hands but his biggest regression before even getting to this team was his separation ability dwindling. A lot of people chalked it up to him being out of shape last season, but I...

    The Sky is not Falling Thread

    The 49ers vs Bears game is a good argument for why a healthy Commanders team had a chance to be in the mix again this season, even with the mediocre defense. I think it is a good snapshot of what the NFL wants to be in this era and going forward. Heavy emphasis on scoring with the occasional...

    Kliff. Are you breaking up with me?

    We also can't be sure of what the front office/ownership's reaction to this season will be given all the circumstances that has lead to the down year. I think Joe Whitt is the obvious one under the biggest radar, but do they view Quinn & Kliff more as victims as circumstances.

    How many coaches showing some consistent success currently (say over last 2-5 seasons) were coaches that failed somewhere previously vs young coaches who were given a chance in their promotion and made a HC quality name for themselves where they are now.

    The first Jayden Daniels Super Bowl window has shut. Hard.

    Just go back to before the 2024 season started and outside of the mumurs going around that Jayden Daniels was looking exceptional in camp, the experts were not hot on this team across the board, at all. There were a few predictions of looking respectable by the end of the season but it took a...
