I believe you but it would be nice to see evidence, link excerpts from their fanboards or something.

Shanahan is like the modern aged version of (Philadelphia Eagles) Andy Reid. Masterful at creating offenses and yet falls short in the big game. Fans ran Reid out of town and I am hopeful Shanahan has the same fate

Shanahan's a good coach. A very good system that is quarterback friendly. Does a good job of scheming receivers open. His problem is when the game is tight in the 4th quarter. He seems to go into a shell. Doesn't want to push the envelope. Plays to safe. Trying not to lose it. Or on the flip side when he should be playing safe he tries to be too aggressive.

Could it be because he was traumatized by the 25 point blown lead in the Superbowl as the Falcons playcaller? That was when he shoulda been more conservative and ran the ball. But he pushed the envelope too much. Does he have PTSD from that loss? Can't seem to make the right call?

Kyle Shanahan reminds me of a big rat that just escaped a busy sewer. Greasy, grimy, and unlikable.

He looks just like my neighbor, who is a little scrawny punk.

Fred Warner is a Pure Stud.When Greenwell got hurt is what lost them the Superbowl.
Sort of still upset at Mcvay for last weeks loss.
RATBOY not knowing or teaching the OT rules might have been the other.?
The Rams are in survival right now of making The Playoffs.Kevin Demoff got what he wanted as far as scheduling Green Bay at Home.
I’d rather Sean Mcvay then Ratboy & looking back Kevin made the right choice.Pulling the rug out of any chance Mcvay became a 9er.

There is actually no rhyme or reason why Shanahan gets the blame for the Super Bowl 51 collapse. There is a HEAD COACH who gets the blame for these things. It doesn't matter what the "OC" wants to do. Pete Carroll gets the blame for Super Bowl 49 even though the OC called the horrendous pass play on the goal line. You VETO the play. Kyle blameless on Falcons. Takes blame for all 49er choke jobs. End of story.

When you fail there is blame to go around for everyone who carries the stench of it. The head coach is always to blame. But the staff as well, led by the coordinators involved, get a piece of that too.

Shanny's collapse as OC in the Super Bowl I agree is a funny example of too much blame going to the coordinator. The fact they couldn't score again after going up 28-3 is a great example of "sitting on a lead" which is never a good idea. But there is no way one side of the ball alone loses that game. And Quinn's fingerprints were all over that shitty ass defense. Not to mention he was the head coach. So I'd lay most of the blame on him.

You mention the Seahawks pass play call on the goal line too but in that situation the head coach has to be involved in the plan. He should never have allowed that stupid ass call. And for the record I try to never question calls because given execution almost anything should work. But in that situation they definitely should have lived and died on the ground. Carroll will always own that one.

All this stuff aside I do find it funny to see the unwashed masses hanging that loss on Shanny. Just because. And also because maybe that stuff affects the owner's thinking and him sending Shanny packing. Because I fucking hate seeing that dude in SF. I want a much shittier head coach up there, someone befitting the city. :crap:

Not my understanding. I had heard the opposite.

As far as Rat face? Fuck him. That is all.

Edit: Ratboy was the OC for ATL in that epic collapse and his teams have blown more big leads in big games than any other HC. I think it is something like twice any other in history - though I'm not going to go back and look. So... yeah... You really can't blame the OC as Ratboy is the common denominator and also touted as the guru of that offense.

He didn't get "sent packing " he was (correctly) hired in 5 minutes by the 49ers, with many other teams (including us) rightly in on him.

I'm talking about the shitters owner sending him packing. And take it easy I'm not disrespecting Shanahan here since that seems to be a sore point with you.

2 people us Falcons fans hope never EVER succeed as HC's...Dan Quinn and Kyle Shanahan. We almost ALWAYS root for whoever's playing against them unless either one of them are playing the Saints. Oh...hope everyone is well. It's been a minute lol.

He's ultimately not a good game-coach. The system, yes, is great.

At the end of the day though he doesn't get it write when the clock is running and his team needs a play.
