Teams San Francisco 49ers - The Niners

[Brasher]

Get Warner on IR too. After the GB game (and realistically the Seahawks garbage) this team was never turning the corner. Folks may argue that mathematically were still in the mix, but there is nothing that I've seen this season that says we're close to being a playoff team, 1 won over a +500 team.

Shut it down. Treat it like preseason. Play the rookies, and starters that haven't produced the goodes, and reset for next year.

And throw the ball 60 times, we know we can run, not sure we have a modern day passing game.

Let's go fully air raid!

Make Juice a healthy scratch, only play one rb, block with 5, 100% shotgun, 4 wr/te sets all day.

 

[Brasher]

On defense blitz 80% of the time.

In reality we will put Campbell in to spy Williams

This year has been so frustrating simply because we have piled incompetence on top of bad luck. What evidence? All three of our marquee offensive players who held out in the off-season are either on IR, heading to IR or should be on IR.

Anyway. The (should be too early) off-season shopping list:

Coaching:

- Special Teams Coordinator replaced. We should pitch a new reality show to Netflix called The Competent. It would centre on giving a group of every day, hard working people off the street a chance to win the 49ers Special Teams Coordinator job.

- New DC. Any body who 1) can read the momentum of the game 2) is either a great man manager or a brilliant tactician, can be both, but must excel at least one of these. 3) take calculated risks 4) can get a unit playing greater than the sum of its parts and not rely on pro bowlers at their disposal.

- Head Coach/OC. Find a mentor. Someone that doesn't cop Shanahan's rage for telling him his latest idea is bat shit crazy or that he should look up from his clipboard every now and again.

Personnel (draft/FA/re-sign/trade...I really don't care how):

- Defense:

- A rangey free safety (Brown makes too many mistakes and gets outmuscled too much)​

- Re-sign Greenlaw (even if on one leg, his energy is infectious)​

- Find a big space eater on the d-line interior, preferably 2​

- Cut Campbell, Don't extend Ward, Cut Hargrave (depending on his appetite/injury recovery)​

- A DE that is a legit threat opposite Bosa.​

​

- Offense:

- A CENTRE who is capable of lifting more than 2 shopping bags at a time into the boot of your car.​

- RT and then for good measure another RT. McKivitz is an OK backup. But we need to tackles this off season because as soon as we fix RT, LT will become a problem.​

- Let Banks walk if he wants big guard money. Someone will be disappointed. Batch was actually pretty good today.​

- There is no cap value in cutting Deebo, if he actually got fit and focused again I believe he can still be of value to this team, but as the 4th option not the centre piece.​

- Kittle backup (is this really that hard considering I see good/serviceable TEs on just about every roster in the league?)​

- Mix up the WR room and use the rest of the season to really test the 2024 rookies. Surely playing and targeting Cowing and Pearsalll in live action will give you a better insight into future needs for 2025? Nonetheless, a burner and a slot with speed is needed.​

- Remove FB from the playbook and replace it with more 2 RB combos (have we ever seen Mason line up with Deebo or CMC this season in the backfield?)​

- And QB. Im now out on Purdy. Too many tipped passes, inability to make tough throws requiring any sort of velocity, can't play in bad weather to warrant Tier 1 money. If someone else signs him then we get a pretty good comp pick....I think there is a reclamation project somewhere out there for the 49ers...if nothing else, Purdy and Jimmy G have shown you dont have to be all world to be successful in this team.​

​

In general:​

​

- it is obvious we are not just an aging team but we are a slow team. We have some of the quickest guys going around at LB, TE but no real speed at the burner positions. Must be addressed given we really don't know what we have with Pearsall, Cowing, Aiyuk's injury or Deebo's motivation.​

- you are no longer the smartest man in the room Kyle. Humility and asking for help is not a bad thing....why is everytime something goes bad on the field the camera cuts to you with your head in your play calling sheet? Are you limited when you don't have an all pro roster?​

​

Anyway, there is more to add...welcome thoughts, would like to see if we can get a consensus view on this board and then see how close to the mark we are over the off-season.​

Is dis you?

When things are mathematically possible . This guy has spent more time working on this than our coaches have with special teams

tbf I would rather a coach and team give it their all until the season is mathematically over rather than being a franchise that just gives up

It's comical to just wash away the season without acknowledging the shortfalls by the off field team.

Did anyone notice all the play action last week?

Probably more in one game than all season.

Bosa, Guerendo and Greenlaw playing tonight.

No Williams, Bartch or Mustapha.

 

[Brasher]

This team better resign Greenlaw and Haufanga.

Let Purdy play on his rookie deal, I'm sick of his pop gun arm underthrowing open receivers. If the 49ers fail in 2025 Purdy and Shanahan can leave together.

Missed an open Pearsall on the interception who would have had a 1st down and at worst chip shot FG to level it up.

Should have had an easy TD to Pearsall on the seam route too if the ball was thrown out in front of him.

Exactly....but every week we see downfield receivers with a step who have to stop and wait for noodle arm.

What a shit show of game and season. Doubt i will watch anymore 49ers this season don't see the point and could use the break.

 

[Brasher]

This offseason will define the next 5 years for this team.

 

[Brasher]

I love a good conspiracy. Campbell, like every Packer hates the 49ers and just played for us to lose. Lol

Still can't believe with a LB on a broken foot, 3 others injured you put your bruised ego ahead of the team.

On that last Rams drive he actually could have shown out and helped stop them running out the clock. But go sook instead of being a man.

 

[Brasher]

Shanahans offense shown out again with the 3 step plan..

1. Stop the run
2. Play man coverage
3. Blitz on 3rd and long.

They looked good against the Bears because they played zone with an interim coach. Anytime Shanahan goes against an elite DC he gets owned.

To be fair, the 49ers pretty much did the same to the Rams. Difference in the game was Stafford hit his deep shot, Purdy didn't. Purdy got intercepted, Stafford didn't.

 

[AJ_2000]

Welcome to mock draft Monday. No more worries about 2024, focus now just towards next season.

Thankfully I had a super busy day, so only saw about 5 mins of the game when we lead 3-0, devo to be missing that barn burner.

Was it the weather that made us so ineffective? We've had some really poor games in non ideal conditions - problem is that you need to win in December and January to win a Superbowl - so unless we get indoor games each week it's going to be a struggle.

Just a really unsurprising way for the season to die.

He has a sponsorship with Toyota, Part of their advertising campaign I would imagine.

Yeah figured. Does he get a cushion to sit on so he can see over the dash of the Tundra?

He's getting a huge bag. But I'm sure Toyota kicked in massively

Chris Foerester (sp!)...offensive line coach needs more heat put on him. False starts, holding, missed assignments and most of all, loving Brendel.

Yeah not the most talented line but has them playing well below mediocre expectations.
