Good on them - supposedly that ball could have been worth up to 500k. Giving him way more than what was initially reported from the team, plus that Bitcoin from Brady, lessens the sting a little about having to give it back

So he didn't really 'give it back' then, but good on the Bucs for giving him some swag even if its probably just a calculated 'easy good publicity' move.

We've survived Dennis Erickson, Mike Nolan, Chip Kelly, and Jim fucking Tomsula before ceasing to exist as a franchise.

You are reaching if you think Pete is getting let go after 1 bad year in which his super star QB gets injured.

Am I? Since the 2 SB runs, we have gotten rolled outta the playoffs each year and progressively get worse. Russ wants outta town and Pete's philosophy wont change. He continues to stay the same when every other team has evolved. There is no way hes still with the team after this season.

Pete Carrol is a single play call away from being a two time super bowl winning HC.
His only issue is he is like 80.
Shanahan is just not a good coach. When fans and analysts started calling him "Kyle" or "Shanny" I knew we were fucked.

His job would be a lot more secure if he'd given the ball to Lynch instead of getting cute with a pass.

The worst play call in super bowl history, that has really put a smear on his legacy. I dont dislike the guy. He is/was an amazing coach for a long time. Its just time for an organizational change. 11 years is a long time with coach.

Fans shitting bricks about the 49'ers current situation is pretty funny. I get the frustration I suppose, you gave away the farm for a talented & athletic division I player who was probable not ready for the NFL yet fans expecting results here and now from it.

Not really shitting bricks at all. I have this avatar for a reason. I've dealt with the Erickson years, the Nolan years, etc. We suck again, oh no!
But, I don't think it's unreasonable to expect some heads to roll if you haven't seen any results from your "star" draft player after two years. Especially when you gave up draft stock for him. It'd also be different if Shanahan had just gotten to town. He's had time to develop schemes, players, evaluate talent, etc.

I agree with you it would be... but he isn't getting let go this season despite what idiot Hawks fans think/want.

I maintain Shanahan will be a good NFL head coach, but he has sort of lost his way right now. I don't know if the 2019 season made him cocky or something, but he is struggling with play calling and getting into a rhythm, as well as his player evaluation/handling of said players. I have no explanation for what is going on with Brandon Aiyuk, but the messaging is terrible.
What I fear is he will get fired maybe after next year, and move onto another team and probably end up being a great coach. I am not sure he will learn from his mistakes with the 49ers in time for it to save him though.

They were 2-2 before Wilson got injured and probably weren't gonna beat the Rams even without that injury. With Wilson uninjured they beat the Colts and the Niners.
Dunno whether you blame Carroll, Schneider, or both for not securing a better backup than Geno goddamn Smith, but they'd have been justified in moving on from Carroll even before this embarrassment of a season.
