And also...

Sure didn't see that coming 😳

Edit: So far Florio seems to be the only national news source reporting this. Have seen a lot of 49er fans talking about it but nobody outside of Florio reporting. 

Can't say if this is legit or not. If it isn't, I guess Florio got suckered 🤔

Its not even that.  The oline and injuries decimated the team and they still won the division and now you want your 3rd year qb learning a new system? Doesnt make sense unless I am missing something

I wasn't trying to claim it makes sense.  That's just the way the league seems to work now.  Last year Slowik was getting HC interviews.  This year he's fired.  Stroud just didn't play as well this year.  Is that his fault?  Maybe?  Maybe not.

Baker got 2 guys HC gigs in 2 years.

I got you man.  The league is nuts and can turn on you quick it seems.  Yeah I dont think strouds play was a result of the play calling and I watched a ton of Texans this year and last.  It was just clear guys were going down left and right and the oline was fuging brutal.  I hope they fired that coach as well.  That said somebody is going to snatch BS up real quick

He'll get another shot for sure.  FWIW, I thought Stroud finished pretty well for a sophomore slump type season.

I echo the confusion and dumbness of firing slowik. Now CJ will learn a new system and set him back. They had a rash of injuries on OL and WRs, but whatever's...

I swear the NFL is the worst about job security.  If you're not Mike Tomlin, John harb, or Andy Reid.....you're going to get fired within 2 years.

From what I read the offense in year two was extremely predictable and stale, even the players, including Stroud, were complaining about it. He also apparently insisted on the C to do the line calls instead of Stroud. So it looked good on the surface to everyone on the outside, but inside the building a lot of people were unhappy.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      By Paa Langfart · Posted

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
