Wonder if @Thinking Skins checked out on him, yet? yeah, he was too inflexible. He needed to run the ball more. It was getting way too much. I was trying to be understanding but after that Giants game and even after the Giants 2 where were doing well running the ball but had some fumbles, he seems to always go back to throwing it aggressively and putting everything on Howell's shoulders. And I'm not out on Howell but my problem with him is he is not consistent enough. So he will have a good half like against SF or Dallas 1 or Dallas 2 and then melt down. Part of that is EB putting too much on his plate, part of that is the OL, but dems the breaks. He needs to put on his big boy pants and start making decisions. If I let my son drive my beat up station wagon as his first car instead of my SUV, the lack of cruise control and a a working radio and a bluetooth and all that jazz are not things that I want to hear him tell me as reasons why he's a bad driver. There are about 10-15 other teams in the league with bad offensive lines. and another 10 or so with second or third string QBs. But I'm coming in here and on Twitter and defending Howell's bonehead interceptions just about every week. Its frustrating. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if @Thinking Skins checked out on him, yet? Im really hoping they hire Peters. He checks so many boxes for me of what I hope they get as a GM. Just for curiosity sake I did some reading over on one of the good 49er forums. They love the guy. They want Lynch to step aside or take a different role so they don't lose Peters. Many suggest that much of their success is because of Peters. While there I also saw a thread on Chase... Originally they were super excited for the signing... now they don't want him resigned and are disappointed in giving up a 3rd rounder. lol 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could still put up some games in the playoffs where he gets maybe 2 sacks in the 1st round, one in the 2nd round and then say 2 sacks in the Super Bowl. If he does that he could probably save face after all of the games where he didn't stand out. Hopefully he sells out trying to get those sacks and gives the opposing QB's lanes to run through because he didn't stay in his lane like when he was with us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He isnt getting a big contract anywhere imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is clear to me, at this point, that no matter what he does in the playoffs, he is getting a 1 year deal. I bet he will be signing 1 year deals the rest of his career because teams are very scared about his knee. Remember it was reported teams were willing to give up a 2nd+ for Chase until they got the medicals on his knee. That meant that the original intention was to likely trade for and extend Chase but the extension piece was taken off the table when they saw the medicals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couple notes from Keim which explains the search for "head of football ops" and not GM label. He said if that person decides to add a "GM" then he could also from the pool of guys they are interviewing but the decision will be made by head of football ops guy. The role just seems like a President or EVP structure. Keim also thinks Peters is the top candidate in the league. As well Ben Johnson.

With this too, I say it's #1 target - Peters and then #2 target - Cunningham as their targets on one of the two get done this week. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renegade7 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 2 hours ago, formerly4skins said: He's probably pretty used to it at this point...dude has been interviewed solely to satisfy the rooney rule like 15 different times. Like, to be clear, we should NOT interview him to be a HC knowing we don't plan to hire him because that's a supposed to a violation of the spirit of the Rooney Rule. Asking him questions as part of him leaving is different, usually I get exit interviews when I've put in notice, not fired, but picking his brain before he goes is not a crazy idea. Be curious if he says yes, people talk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clskinsfan Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 I like how Harris has a conveyor belt of candidates rolling through his house today and tomorrow. We will have a new GM by the end of the week it appears. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
