Does Dave have any say in the Coaching staff?

That is the way it should be. Even if I disagree with Rivera's assessment and decisions, you want to really fug up a franchise have the FO make assistant decisions

 

If Harbaugh could get released for not replacing greg roman. I don't see why Rivera can't get told to either replace shula and dorsey or get gone.

Should be interesting to see how that works out for SF

I am more of a guy that thinks head coaches should control hiring firing assistants and GM hires or fires head coaches.

Nothing worse than FO meddling on coaching

In certain cases when the assistant coaches is garbage, YES

 

Any good GM can see Shula & Rodgers are not the answer. Tell the HC you're not satisfied with what you're seeing. HC disagree, so you go to ownership. I really don't care for Rivera, he's not the answer either. I don't mind having another 49ers situation here in carolina like harbaugh and greg roman

He technically has the power, but like most GMs he leaves the coaching hires and fires to the head coach's discretion.

 

My question would be how strongly he'd be willing to "suggest" some things.

Hope it's like...

DG: "Hey Ron, you let go of Shula or I let go of you"

RR: "Uh Shula can I speak to you for a moment?"

What Gettlemen is doing is allowing Ron to choose his staff, as he should, and allowing Ron to succeed or fail by his own choices. Sure Gettlemen will make suggestions when asked but he's smart to let Ron sink or swim by Rons own decisions. If Ron fails then Gettlemen will clean house after this season and start over.

    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.  
    • Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
    • Totally possible imo, I also caught that snippet from Morgan where he said “If” we sign him. The lack of competition says otherwise tho 🤷‍♂️
