Falcons OC Kyle Shanahan expected to be 49ers HC.

Makes sense in light of the fact that they haven't hired one by now. 

I wonder about their GM job. Are they the team that said they're going to let the HC pick the GM, or am I imagining that?

Run by the same people who thought Jim Tomsula was a better option than Jim Harbaugh or Adam Gase...

Dysfunction comes with the territory.

Nick Caserio didn't seem to want a part of it.

I kinda would like to see him as the GM, McDaniels as the HC and Garropolo as the QB, just to see how it work out. I guess that's not going to happen now.

McDaniels backed out too, citing family concerns (didn't wanna move his kids cross country).

Of course, there could also be York family concerns...

Figured they had to be waiting on Shanahan or McDaniels. 

Hope it's Shanahan, he's done wonders for Matt Ryan and that Falcons offense. Yes they added Sanu and Coleman has come around, but playcalling has made a HUGE difference and Shanahan is one of the best in the league (like his dad). 

P.S. Looking at you Shula.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
