We need to get rid of Kyle and John, so Jed could be back in charge.

Yeah it can. You can be up against a better team and still choke away your best chances. Like Shanahan does.

If the other team is better then that's going to happen. That isn't a choke.

A choke is losing to the inferior Ravens in 12 or Giants in 11.

The Ravens were a great team. Great defense. They could chuck bombs with Flacco. Justin Smith and Aldon Smith were both hurt going in to the Super Bowl. Not ideal and no pressure killed us. Had they been healthy I think we win that game.

You would be hard pressed to call the Giants inferior. They literally WON the SUPER BOWL. LOL. Thanks Kyle Williams too.

They weren't a great team. They were a HOT team. Their season stats were good, but not great for a SB winner - 10th in points on offense, 13th for points allowed on defense. SF was 11th in points scored and 2nd in points allowed. The defensive falloff due to the Smiths being worn down came up against an offense that was playing above its year average. Don't forget the defense played a similar game against Atlanta - bad first half, good second half. The hole was dug too deep in the SB.

Because he's a felon

At his age Eddie has no desire to get back into football. He's living a comfortable life.

The best team often doesn't win the title. The SF Giants were never the best team and they won 3 titles in 5 year. Then you have the Dodgers and Yankees that are loaded with talent and have 2 titles between them in the las 24 years. The 1989 49ers got hot at the end of that season with a 5 game winning streak. Then they rolled through the playoffs in total dominating fashion. They outscored their opponents 126-26.

You're conflating the 1988 and 1989 49ers. In any case, sometimes the best team wins, sometimes the hot streak team wins. 2012 Ravens were the latter.

I think it helps a lot with Lynch a former HOF player being in the FO. Bridging that gap between owner, FO, and players. Ozzie Newsome comes to mind too.

Not gonna lie, most of us were --WTF! when he was mentioned as a definite hire lol
