Well, you're right about that. I do think there's truth in the rumblings that McDaniels will succeed Bill when he retires. That's probably the smartest thing he could do.
Did you watch him the two years before that?

Ben's quotes are all the worst.
He would never admit the other guy was dirty or that the Steelers are going to ever win.
He purposefully keeps his quotes vanilla and generally they are stupid. Probably because of how he would get burned in the past for saying crazy shit. Love that local media.
For the record Burficts hit was legal but I would wager he was trying to fuck up Ben in retaliation. The Cincy crowd was angrier than a Trump rally at that point. Whatever. I have been over the Bungles for 20 years. Not worried about them or their classless fans.

I mean, Chip already clashed with his last GM. Balke already clashed with their last coach (Tomsula does not count). Add in Kaepernick and York.....
I'm hyped for the upcoming trainwreck.

Frankly I don't think Belichick is petty enough for that to even be a consideration. He's going to tell his guy not to leave because he wants to keep talented people working for him, not because of some nebulous relationship with another coach. McDaniels will go wherever the best career move for him is, which one would think is a head coaching job. It's not like he can't go back to NE when Belichick retires.
Ahh, okay. Percautionary reasons, I understand.
Oh, I could tell alright. Yours and Kave's are weak game.
;P
Any comments on personnel are totally bs at this point. They could draft a QB. Everyone is in love with the QB they have to play

Belichick's presser today...
He can throw a 30 yard dart while jumping backwards.
I am sure he can throw a 5 yard screen 20 times in a row!
Might be worried about stability if the team is indeed up for sale.
9ers have tons of cap room for 16. They aren't cutting Kap if they just hired Chip.
Except train-wreck in Philly started when GM who didn't get along with Chip fired Tom Gamble.
Tom Gamble is in the FO in SF now and responsible for bringing Chip to SF.
I am kind of shocked how easily everyone dismisses any and all success Chip has ever had and his one, only 1 bad season!, is what he is.
BTW what beef does Kaep and 49ers FO have?
Plus, living in the Bay Area is pretty great. He's went from Oregon (yay!) to Philly (boo!) and now SF (yay!).
I don't see much difference between what Chip's trying to do and what the Colts were doing in Manning's heyday. None stop hurry up offense, in the no huddle out of the shotgun with a single back. The goal of that offense was to wear down the defense as well and force simple mental errors that Manning would exploit. The difference is Chip hasn't gotten a QB who can really run that offense well and has to dumb down the playbook significantly while relying on inferior talent to make plays. Manning and Edgerrin James were a nasty duo back there, Bradford and Murray weren't.Maybe Kaepernick can be the guy he needs, but its more about decision making, timing, and accuracy than athleticism.

Also, they are back to .500 at 152-152. Amazing.

Hey, you leave Alex Smith out of this!
Yes, he has gotten worse every year he has been in the league, as he has been asked to do more. Is that a selling point?
You don't remember him throwing a hissy fit when Mangini left against his wishes to coach the Jets?
Its basically how we ever even found out about spygate and their cheating ways. Trust me he is plenty petty. Don't also forget they took shots at Lurie and Eagles cause during this past off season Lurie made some remarks during the deflategate scandal about how he always wondered about the 2004 SB and what if....
I just don't see it.

Well yes, you lose a Future HOF SB MVP QB and of course your team is going to look like crap.
Aside from the 33% state income tax.
Chips offense is super qb friendly .
Reminds me of the Pats without the cheating.
The Niners need talent though.
Thank you good sir!

They basically leaked rumors to the press that he had lost the locker room/didn't possess leadership abilities/was a bit of a loner in the locker room (Turns out it was Paraag Marathe- the guy that negotiates their contracts). There were also rumors that Kap signed such a team friendly deal because of his loyalty towards the franchise.
This guy gets it. And if they do try to move on from Kaep don't be surprised if Bradford is in consideration again.
While I am not sold on Bradford as much as some other Eagles fans, he did have a much better 2nd half of the season. He credited that too finally grasping what Chip wanted him to do and getting comfortable with the offense.
Bradford himself might want to look to continue that rather than learning a new system under a new coach in Philly. Which seemingly he has had to do every year in the league.
League would already be writing up the paperwork for Lynch's fine if he had done this.
I feel like this season was a wash, no one was going to succeed under the circumstances, especially on our offense. Though Gabbert being a pretty significant upgrade speaks volumes about where Kap is mentally right now. I'm sure the injuries (he had 3 surgeries) played a significant role but he has been on a downward trend ever since the NFC Championship game against Seattle.
Will he ever go back to that form? Probably not. I still don't think he's as bad as these past two years have shown though. 2014 had the internal struggles within the organization between Baalke and Harbaugh as well as all the trade rumors. This year was doomed from the start, I'm fine with giving him one more year, but we should still draft a QB.

They would fine him for talking?
Racists look out for each other.
Lynch talked and they still fined him.

When?
Seems like the numbers favor him staying this year.
Beyond that, Kap really has to play well for them not to cut him because his salary goes way up and his dead cap slides down.

I'll be optimistic
Chip spends 2 years in SF
Chip spends 2 years in SF
They've got $53.5m in cap space for 2016. Cutting Kap saves them $8.5m, but given the gobs of cap space they have anyway, I'd hang on to him and see if Chip can rehabilitate him at all.
We have tons of cap space.
Btw, fuck Trent Baalke. I remember two years ago being "one of the most talented teams in the league." Now, we really have nothing at any position.
Yea, I mean he's only got 1 year to show he can do it, but getting rid of him now is crazy talk and I can't believe it's even being discussed. Keep Kap and Gabbert, maybe draft a QB and see how the season plays out.

I'm pretty stoked about chip. I know we deserve to be Clowned on after this season but I'm pretty excited. Hopefully he can fix kap!
The offensive side has a few potentials, but it is definitely in need of a massive influx. Defensively the team is really young but has quite a few players that continued to improve this season, and I think will impress next year.
Niners have roughly $50m I think now that all the retirements are washed.

So that means Tannehill still has a few games to even out, yes!!
To be fair, the team really got screwed with Davis (is he still thinking of coming back) and Borland retiring. Two of the teams worst players this year were their replacements.
Tons of needs though: WR, OL, TE, OLB
That's perfectly reasonable.
