That's where I feel we are. We don't make enough splash one year signings to have overwhelming talent to overcome the coaching deficiencies needed to win.

Unless purdy is Joe/Tom 2 I don't believe shanahan can win 4 games in a row and call them all correctly against 4 teams with equal or more talent and as good or better coaching.

Oh more than a few...which is a loser mentality

Same guys would have stuck with Marvin lewis. " he gets us to the playoffs every year!!!"

Marvin Lewis is 0-7 in the playoffs.

Kyle is 6-3 in the playoffs.

I'm not directing this at anyone specific, I'm just saying... there's too many extremely well-respected players and coaches who call Kyle a genius, mastermind, wizard, and future HOF coach for me to take the average fan's take as anything remotely credible.

I've been a football nerd my whole life, and while I'm not employed by the NFL or a team, I see what these football professionals see. If you know football, I don't understand why some others can't see the same thing. No one is saying Kyle never ever makes a mistake or is infallible. Like, duh, he's human. But come on. We have people legit going to the extreme of saying we should fire him. Downright asinine.

I guess the average fan refuses to give any credence to Kyle's current and former players and coaches who were actually with him every day and/or study his stuff because they have to face him.

And Reid was 0-20 at one point, Tomlin is 1-15, Payton is 1-15… trying to make a HC bad because they haven't won a Super Bowl is one of the dumbest, childish, and most uneducated hills to die on.

We can name a handful of teams that have won MULTIPLE Superbowls since the last time we did. So it may be hard win one, but not as hard as some of you make it seem. Why don't you just go down the list starting with Denver in 98-99 then see how many teams won multiple times in that time span. You'll be surprised that it's quite a few. Just off the top of my head….Ravens, Patriots, Giants, Bucs, Broncos, Rams, Steelers, Chiefs, Packers. There might be some more but that's close to a third of the league.

too many excuses for this fan base…

Same could be said for QB too, no? If the coach doesn't have to win one but get you close. The QB should be afforded the same latitude one would think.

Hard to win with mediocrity at QB or when the QBs get injured.

Who should the fan base hire after firing Kyle?

Payton had 16 years with a HOF QB and the only time he won a SB is when the league grabbed his team by the hand in the playoffs and gave them a push so they could run endless stories about perseverance after New Orleans got flooded over in Katrina.

Kyle has as many conference championship appearances as the Saints franchise in its entire history and some of the same people bashing Kyle wanted him fired and replaced by that guy.

Jimmy is fine, he isn't elite (can't stay on the field) and the way the league is now you need that guy. Maybe you can squeak out a SB win, margin of error is vastly smaller.

I don't think objective fans/NFL executives are gonna pick Jimmy over Shanahan.
