Gotta go earn each of those wins for sure. League parity worked. Teams get more even every year. There are few 'walk overs" but you need to win those games. The loss to AZ last year was inexcusable. Sure every team has a crap game the "should have" won where things were just "off". But winning those is what makes a SB winner. NO team should collapse for multiple games when it matters and I don't care who or what was at fault. The QB needs to lead the team in those trouble times. All around fail down the stretch. We cannot have that again
June 23, 20241 yr Author 19 hours ago, cunninghamtheman said: Those that believe we are stacked with so much superior talent than the rest of the league….lets look into that for a minute here. Let’s take our first four games. Are we really more talented than Green Bay? How about even the Falcons? Think I’d give us just a slight edge over them. Saints or Bucs? Niners and Detroit clearly more talented teams atop the NFC. Are we above these other four NFC teams we start our schedule playing though? Bucs have Hurts number. What was learned from that debacle?? They didn't just beat us they EMBARRASSED us. Yes we have the talent. IDK how you could think otherwise. The pressure will be on Hurts to perform. he needs to stop the BS college presser remark of "I need to do better" Yes we know that already, or most of us do. There is abounding talent on offense provided by Howie. I hope the new staff will put that together and Hurts hopefully studied all his miscues and missed opportunities. Every team has a weakness,but we are solid in most spots. I see no reason we can't compete for another trip to the SB. Is this lofty? Possibly,but if this comes together as expected,we will be difficult to beat. Must keep our eyes on the prize

June 23, 20241 yr Author 19 hours ago, cunninghamtheman said: 12 wins was what the SB Niners accomplished last season. FL has stated he expects a 12 win team. I’m seeing 10. WHY? You scared? Oh I remember,you fail to see that we improved in many areas. We lost a few,but we gained a few more than we lost. If we go 10 it's because the staff didn;t put this together and/or Hurts fails to lead. I'm NOT expecting another collapse. If we play our game, yep 12 is doable

June 23, 20241 yr Author 19 hours ago, cunninghamtheman said: FL you have this trend going of always downing Hurts and propping up the belief more in the other QB we have. Started with Wentz. You really didn’t like the move to Hurts over him. Then you wanted to bench Hurts for Shew. Now you are talking Pickett while tearing QB1 apart. Have some time now to even reflect on what has transpired with these first two now….the benefit of hindsight even here. None of these guys are even close to being in consideration of the same level of Franchise QB we have at the helm. Don’t know why you have such dislike and disdain for Hurts? Shew couldn’t win a game for us in the same team Hurts was kicking butt with when he did get his chance. Wentz you gotta be able to understand in hindsight how much lesser a Franchise QB he was at that point. Did nothing but drag teams down after we shipped him out in favor of Hurts. Now you jumped straight in with the next guy in Pickett. Not sure how much you’ve seen of him play. But he needs to be developed just so we can make him a viable backup. For me that’s always what I’ve seen as his ceiling. He was in a pathetic QB draft class. So he was forced as a first round pick. Always so very obvious to me that was a terrible draft choice….out of desperation….for a team that never has high draft picks. Anyway just reflect on what you are saying and doing. Of course any player can be nitpicked. But all you seem to do is tear down the leader of our team. Some points are probably valid…..but much of them are completely way off base just Hurts hating. Funny how Wentz put us in SB position isn't it and Hurts didn't? Except the time he did,then blew it. Yes I enjoy the pocket passer over the college running boy. After the big loot was had,Hurts fell down like a little girl and it was a stunning display of quitting on a play. Now that he is being paid 100% he needs to BUST ARSE at 100%. No hatred involved,every true fan sees it. Sorry you have blinders on,but that is no ones fault but your own. Foles didn't shine when he left either now did he? You can't just plug and play with your "picks" It's about how a team meshes TOGETHER. STOP with the juvenile "Hurts hater" BS and try looking at him as if he played for someone else. Hurts has blinded you with BS and "college boy" needs to grow up now. Pickett like Shew is "happy to be a BU". That is not good enough for me. I want a BU who is striving to be the #1. If Hurts can't step it up he will be he next BU somewhere else
June 23, 20241 yr Author 17 hours ago, cunninghamtheman said: I already know I’ll catch flak for this but….I want Slowik. Was on the D side with DeMeco in Santa Clara. Then went on the O side under Shannahan. It’s obviously well known I’ve pointed towards the Niners in many ways about how they’ve been doing things. But he got his shot running his own O as OC….not an OC under the HC O mastermind. He absolutely brought it. Stroud grabbing tons of credit. But look at all the QBs Slowik has gotten to be very productive. Garrapolo, Purdy…. Even though I believe Slowik is a hot commodity….still think he’s being underrated and being slept on. He had a ton to do with Stroud’s success. What about THIS year???? Like all the "special" players you want,you think the Eagles always get first choice? No other teams are vying for the same people? Everyone just wants to be in Philly? LALA land. Clueless

June 23, 20241 yr Author 12 hours ago, cunninghamtheman said: You really want to make the case about how Siri and Moore are the top O minds in football? As Joe said. Pick your favorite band. Is the bassist the BEST in the biz? The drummer? Do they have the best agent? Is their sound crew the best there is? I'm going to say NO.it's about how it all works together,weak links and all. yet they found enough success to be your favorite band. How is sports different? How did the dream team work out for us?
June 23, 20241 yr Author I will say this. I thought losing Ped was a mistake. I understand cleaning house,but I thought he was a soild coach who adapted on the fly and took shots. Siri would never approve the Philly Special. I love guys that take those shots and go off script and make it work. Ped and Lawrence will be a force if they can surround Trevor with the talent Hurts has

Another coach getting to the SB getting fired again...especially after he brought in 2 coordinators that got hired away. It's a young coach...not a guy who has 25 -30 years of relationships withing the league to where he has all these coordinators at his disposal. Even your boy in KC struggled here after that first wave of his initial staff got hired away. 5 of the last 6 years no playoff wins. 6 of 8 years without playoff wins. Very fortunate... Jim Johnson and Spags as DCs who won't get hired away. Curious to see the record with and without those staples at DC? Ham has "demanded" it. It must be done

You’re in LaLa Dreamlamd….we are keeping Fangio though as part of the grand scheme of things here. The changes will come on the O side.

You are the one demanding everything from our QB….yet could care less about the quality of coaching he has to overcome to achieve. Hurts craves to win a championship. I do also. Both of us can’t demand something resembling close to a top 10 O minded coach and scheme?
June 23, 20241 yr 9 hours ago, joemas6 said: Guy gets hired as a head coach on a 4 win team. QB who runs a read option, very green on big boy QB play. Year 2 the team gets to the Superbowl and he loses his 2 coordinators and some additional staff that he brought in. Coach has franchise all time winning record %. They promote the QB's family friend to OC year 3. Disaster at DC. Now... If this is another franchise where you don't give a $h@t about TMZ or have an obsession about the QB...just the facts without any emotion involved Would you think it smart to give the young successful coach going into year 4,the ability to regroup and pick some other coordinators and fix some other things? The key here...no emotional involvement. Not with the QB...no hatred toward the GM...no " i called it" ..no " Pedey was done wrong by Rosie ... if this was Cleveland... what do you think the right move would be? What was proven was Siri failed to start his HC career here. What was his record before he had to turn things over to Steichen? Crap record is the answer. Then we face a little adversity with a first time OC….does Siri bring anything to the table to assist the fresh new coordinator? Nope. Next season Siri can go plant some seeds and watch them grow somewhere else. You pretty much said it yourself….without quality O coach…Siri sucks. So what we need to do is hire the best O minded HC we can. Simple…should just be an obvious fact. Why are you trying to be so happily settling for so much less?
