49ers Head Coach Kyle Shanahan Thread

Bill Walsh was the ultimate psychologist. He'd grill the team into preparation all week and then before the big game, show how relaxed and confident he was by literally, taking a nap before big games. Nothing to worry about. His team, esp. Joe Cool, played that way.

Here it is!

america's game 1984. The part I was talking about is at the 36:00 minute mark. I wonder if that picture is actually from that moment. it is used in the video.
Walsh also dressed up as bellhop when the team arrived at their hotels prior to the first SB against the Bengals.

I think.

Yes sir! I can't remember which one but was def one of the first two.
Heard or read somewhere long ago that it was Walsh's way of calming his own nerves before the game so he can have a clear mind to call the game and not be a mess. And he wanted to do it in such a way that doesn't show his nervousness to his guys and maybe lose their confidence before the game.

Colin cowherd this summer talking bout Kyle! He couldn't of been more right except it didn't take 2 more years before Kyle was top 6, it's right now!
It feels like a long wait until Monday. I've been watching old gems like this Staley interview from 2017: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uN5Y6P4PAzQ

The respect, admiration, and excitement Staley has for both Kyle as a coach but also his approach to rebuilding the team - will be extra exciting to see him playing again on Monday.

Probably thinking "Wtf Matt Ryan!?"
I am hoping kyle schemes the Snock out of SEA, and even tho Russ W is a legit contender for MVP this yr, the combo of JG/Kyle vs RW/pete is in our favor. Why? Because altho RW is playing like a MVP, JimmyG just put in a stellar game to carry us over AZ . As for HCs and scheming, give kyle a massive advantage over peter cheater. Doesn't mean Pete is a chump, just means he ain't kyle. Given 2 days to prepare, ok, i favor Pete. Given a week, or, 10 days, strong nod to kyle + JG over Russ + pete.

So for coaching, i see a big hometown advantage.

Also, i am hoping kyle did his fair share of D game planning with Saleh. If we come out 5-2 - 2-2 or a 5 -1 -2-2 1 on D or something weird, i won't be surprised. I wonder if kyle doesn't have someone, maybe Dre, just behind the split DTs with the Wide 9s. Whatever , my bet is kyle had a big input on what and how we play D this game.

If we go wide 9s, then i hope he has someone smack in the middle of the DTs but a tad behind them. That way we still get the pass rush advantage but also plug the hole that comes with wide 9s.

kyle is just trying to look cool

P. Manning confused and impressed by Kyle Shanahan
loved this bit from recent presser.
would it be TE Daniel Helm would be the other option to elevate from practice squad?

"He is the tight end on our practice squad, so, maybe. But, we could go other spots, too. Depends on how we want to balance it out. We could go short at tight ends and add to other positions. Maybe we'll get two kickers up. You never know."
