Rex runs a 3-4, that was the reason why they didn't go after Vic Fangio last year.
We don't have the personell for a 3-4.
Rex runs a hybrid. He eve had a 3-4/4-3/ 46. He had Buffalo playing tough defense

Most defenses run nickel 70% of the time.

Why would anyone want Vrabel? He is just like Wilks. More of a leader then a x & o guy.

Here's the sequence of plays in OT for the defense starting with 2nd & 14. Wilks has the defense playing soft ass coverage until Kyle calls a timeout to change the coverage to man. By then KC was already in FG range &… pic.twitter.com/41fjTYwkcf
This was the last straw.
Remember the game where Wilks called an all-out blitz and the play went for a TD? Kyle said they "spoke about it afterward." It was the wrong call.
Perhaps the Wilks hire was in anticipation of him leaving in two years and we get a comp pick?
Wilks wasn't just a scapegoat being tossed under the bus to cover for defensive mistakes players made. He took a great defense and made it only very good, but not good enough.

It's was pretty bad having to hear Romo keep saying WTF is Wilks doing. Can't play soft at somepoint you just have to play man

I agree with this action. Too many times this year I was screaming at the defense through the TV. The D looked like complete ass against the Lions in the 1st half. They lined up to run the ball on 4th and 12 and then again on 4th and 18 in the same drive and got them with ease. That's a DC getting thoroughly outcoached.

Vrabel sucked ass as a coordinator, why is he a high commodity?

Wilks didn't take the ball on the coin toss, fumble the punt, fumble in the redzone, or forget about Kittle. The offense and ST coordinators made mistakes all year too.
Not to mention, Wilks comes highly recommended by the McCaffrey's. He was CMC's Head Coach in Carolina. Dont want to piss of the McCaffrey's. Now Bosa is lobbying for Chase Young.
This is not Eddie D's 49ers, they just kept the helmet. There is no way Eddie D is talking his losing super bowl team to the club to hang out with Bill Walsh's favorite music artist. There is literally no consequence for losing with the York led 49ers.
They sold a bunch of merch so this was a win in their minds. Denice Debartolo York should give the team back to Eddie D.
Holy crap .. wilks held the the chiefs to 19pts in regulation
but Kyle fires him… WITHOUT looking in the mirror?
kyle is a piece of trash

Waited too late to get rid of him. Now we need to bring in someone after all the other teams have picked through the best people available. But good decision to cut loses now.
