I wonder at what point do we address special teams? People have dumped on Saleh over the years and even Shanahan some. But both have proved their mettle as coordinators. And it's not for lack of talent. Woods has had some pretty good athletes on this team at his disposal.

Easiest job in the NFL.
The 49ers have the worst Special Teams in the NFL and it isn't even close!

Special team coach... WR coach.. QB coach ... do we even have a QB coach??
Hightower's gotta be a JOKE, he can't find a returner so he just alternate???

BUT can you really put all the blame on him??
the HC should be providing him with players who can play the special team.. it's not like the special team sucks, it's just his returners, we don't have it..

hate to seesomeone loose their job, but we can definitely use a upgrade at special teams. Can we afford signing C.Patterson in free agency ?
I wonder what we do with robbie gould he's been great do we resign or let him walk

It's the entire units, outside of the punter and kicker, everyone has sucked and we've seen nothing from Hightower to help this unit in terms of scheme or creativity. Other teams scheme kick blocks, we never get close now. Our blocking on returns is crap, our coverage is crap. They need someone new and fresh.

ACTUALLY, when Mostert was the gunner, we were pretty good... now he's forced to use COLEMAN.. lol.. damnnnn, he gets ignored by our HC and again, our HC does not supply him w/players who can play special team... we've been using RETURNERS that can " get by " only... so what do you expect..

Is that the second onside kick we gave up for a touchdown this year?
and how many fumbles?
and being the only team to turn long snapping into a soap opera?
DUMP THIS CHUMP.

Lions fired Brayden Coombs who I guess is a really good coach. I don't know much ST coaches but I'll take him
Edit. He may have been fired for doing a fake punt without telling the HC. Fake punt ??? Come on down !!
Young dude too. I like all the younger modern thinking coaches
