yungmack Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 RR has one season. CK had several (3?). False equivalence. You do know that Ryan has been a head coach prior to Buffalo, doncha? I believe P. T. has had 6 years to "show his stuff." The trend is inexorably down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hapless Bills Fan Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 @RapSheet The #49ers have hired Chip Kelly as their head coach. @JedYork After a thorough search, Trent & I are thrilled to announce Chip Kelly as the new #HeadCoach of the @49ers Kaep's anti-Shanahan chicken bones worked! So apparently it only took 1 Tomsula season for the leadership to change their stance on A-Hole head coaches who lack people skills. LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinaccia Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Che eccellente!!! San Francisco vincerà nell'Ovest di nuovo. Secondo me Chip Kelly è un bravissimo allenatore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peterpan Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 @RapSheet Trent Baalke will maintain his power as the GM in charge of personnel. For the #49ers, Chip Kelly will just coach. Which is good. I think this is a good fit. Chip's Offense can and does work in the NFL. I'd love to see us run some of his triple read option with the pass being the third option.

Buffalo Barbarian Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Maybe he learned a valuable lesson about people skills.... says he doesn't want to be GM anymore so he's learned something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 Kap jerseys taken off clearance after Kelly hiringThe 49ers appear to anticipate the hiring of Chip Kelly will be good for business in the Colin Kaepernick merchandise sector. Are the rising prices of Kap's jersey just a coincidence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlayoffsPlease Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 people talk like Chip Kelly doesn't have a winning record as an NFL head coach after 3 seasons And that Kaepernick didn't help take the team to a Super Bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a Tuel Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 (edited) You do know that Ryan has been a head coach prior to Buffalo, doncha? I believe P. T. has had 6 years to "show his stuff." The trend is inexorably down. but that 26-21 record means ol chip is a Belichick! edit .482 to .553 doesn't put Chip on the "much, much, better" track. Especially with the number of years discrepancy. Also Rex Ryan had a .583 record his first three years.

GunnerBill Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I'm not sure it is a great hire. He is 6-14 over three years against teams with 9 wins or more. He has been in a weak NFC East (yes I know the Bills went 1-3 against the NFC East - I think the Bills were pretty poor this year) and the team has gotten worse every year under him. Part of that was his desire to trade away and release talent but part of it was his coaching. He never changed his hurry up offense which consistently put a middle of the pack defense talent wise in terrible spots. They finished 29th, 28th and 30th in total defense in Chip's 3 years. On offense they went from 2nd, to 5th to 12th (just one spot ahead of the Bills). Teams have wised up to his offense - they try and beat you with speed, simplicity and execution - not unlike the K-Gun Bills it is a small play book that involves running the same plays over and over and over just to different sides and at great speed. The problem is if he doesn't have the talent capable of executing - and he doesn't have a Desean Jackson or a LeSean McCoy in San Francisco - then it leads to predictable and easy to defend offense. The one X factor is unquestionably Kap. If he can work that out he might be able to run some triple read option that uses his legs to make plays and basically go full college option Quarterback to keep defences under duress. However, bear this in mind - Kap has never had great success running against Seattle. Pete Carroll and the Seahawks are not going anywhere and so long as Carson Palmer stays upright nor are the Cardinals. It is a really tough division. I won't be ready to call out Chip as a failure in San Fran at the end of 2016, because I think it is a longer term task he has taken on.... but I'd be surprised if he succeeds.

YoloinOhio Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 (edited) Alex Boone As an Ohio State fan, Yolo, I'm surprised you didn't mention him. not an Alex Boone fan... But if he was cheap (he won't be) then ok. He is not a guy Chip will want around so doubt he re-signs him. Havent seen Boldin play this year. Does he have a couple of good years in his tank ? Bowman would be nice. i do think he has a year or two left, plus has vet leadership and knows how to win. And knows the offense. Would be cheap I think at his age and provide a tough possession receiver. Then still draft a WR in the 3rd or later. Watkins, Boldin, Woods, rookie, Salas, Hogan. Can't count on Easley being ready, or as a WR. Jmo. Edited January 15, 2016 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
