It wouldn’t be a stretch to conclude that Tepper, Fitterer and the rest of the FO had the same idea last year. At least we ditched that flawed approach and appear to be heading in the right direction. 

Right definitely, I just wonder what cog in the machine was the worst that messed it up.  Tepper that bad/meddling of an owner, Fitterer that bad of a GM, Reich that bad of a coach?

I guess it's not an either/or answer, and we got the lucky combination of all 3 'stars' aligning lol.

Either way, I'm definitely excited about what I've seen from the team this offseason.
I just hope it translates to one thing in the end..

He comes in, assembles what should have been an all-star staff. How did the staff not have a unified vision?  That staff should have been able to put together systems that at least would have.... 1) suited our players & 2) been able to win us more games. 

At what point did the dissension begin? Were they ever on the same page?  

I really don't want to spark a discussion...it's truly water under the bridge at this point.  

I just find it astonishing that it happened to such a group of NFL coaches.  

Man, you bring up an amazing talking point. I remember thinking that though we didn't have the players we definitely had one of the best coaching staffs on paper.

I figured that would translate to a great system where we could finally cycle in players year in and year out with sustained success. I was wrong after Year 1.

lol this thread may be going into Week 2 at this rate; but if he's healthy and on a friendly contract I'm all for having him. We don't have much reason to be picky at DB as far as I can tell

I will never ever understand the hatred for Bersin. He caught every pass thrown to him. Should have never been put in a position to return punts

At this point it's just a running joke amongst most fans for me. Nothing too serious. 
I didn't hate him, I thought he was serviceable. I also don't think he needed to be on the team as long as he was.

I cannot explain why Ian is still here. We here at the huddle have debated that for years now.  We still haven't figured that out.

Brenton Bersin reincarnated

I know nothing at all about this player, but I like that we got a TE.

Exactly how I feel lol; any chance at a weapon for Bryce I'm for it.

Seems like he has hands I'm cool with it. I didn't realize he tore his ACL in Nov though, don't love that at all.

I can be convinced though; if it's a great move to build long term success, I won't complain.

Nope but we get our 2nd Rd pick back next season.

 

Good trade we now have our 1st and 2nd rd picks back next season.

Fair but we also need great players now; we had a horrible product. My fear is if Bryce has another less than average year that will be the beginning of rebuilding at QB in a lot of eyes. So I'm for getting great value now whether on Offense or Defense; this year.

WE BETTER HAVE GOT A FUTURE FIRST ROUNDER AT MINIMUM!

I had a lot of hope for him coming out of LSU. He was an amazing #2 at a place known recently to have amazing WR talent.

I think he has potential, so I think they should look to maximize that, but based on his history he can't be depended on as a priority.

(I did the wait a minute for the tweet to load thing but it wouldn't)

I think Sanders actually bounces back in this offense. 850 rush, 400 yard rec type of year. But agree gone after this season 

seems lofty for him right now but i'd be happy to see it

He's bringing Gilmore. Pie this when it happens.

Pieing now to make it happen.

What he said is still valid.  First INT and the majority of Panther fans will be screaming for Cam

just making sure we're on the same page here.

I think it's valid too, I'm saying it's not even a matter of how long, bc they've been doing it relentlessly for the past 4 years. lol

If Bryce/this team doesn't show progress those first 2-3 games it will get ugly in here and fast.

Can you imagine how long it would take the fans to boo Bryce off the field if Cam was sitting on the bench? Lol

yesterday for 5000.

I'd watched the game a few weeks ago. It's crazy to see some of the details I missed being younger on a live broadcast.  Towards the end, the pressure that Rams defense was getting on Jake was sickening.

Amazing that we pulled that out and went on to the Super Bowl. Crazy to think how few of those chances we've had since, but I have hope!

Well I'm surprised nobody is mentioning the fact that Canales may be able to get the best out of him. Hopefully Bryce will have progressed next year and Mitch can be a solid backup.

If there is a glimmer of hope its that York was once considered a  meddling owner who was despised by his fans.

He's also in some heat for insider trading right now.

Exactly this point. As I watched this I kind of laughed to myself thinking "When the 49ers have bad seasons those same owners are being called to sell the team, not genius world-class owners."

This is the sports world we live in. lol

Bryce is a dawg if you ask me.

Sometimes I wish that he would've went away from what the coaches were asking him to do (like chuck it up there on 3rd and long instead of screens.)

With that said, Bryce absolutely has it in him, he's a pretty polite one. But the way he mentally stayed even keel, and took hits each week. He's earned that if nothing else.

When we hired Reich…… lol

This just made me nervous that it was about Canales, I was like not another year of that!?

Never understood the point of blowing up a perennial playoff team.

People are short sighted.

And Baker throws a GW TD today just to add some irrelevant salt lol
