Should Mike Shanahan be fired?

In all honesty, I would be worried if the organization wasnt talking about a new DC.

Sorry, wasn't talking about him specifically. Just meant in general.

Read his bio if you have doubts. From what I have seen at Stanford and 49ers he is pretty creative.

Greg Roman was a finalist for the Stanford job and also drew attention for the open jobs at Vanderbilt, Tulane and Pitt. He's currently Harbaugh's offensive coordinator in San Francisco and spent time with him in Palo Alto, although most of his experience has come in the NFL.

Harbaugh has made it clear that Roman is the architect of the Stanford and 49ers offenses.

I would go with a hungry assistant in the NFL looking to make a name for himself.

Im sure there are some capable college coaches. Alot of head coaches came up thru the college ranks whether as assisstants or head coaches. Again the fo should be able to do their job and find a good one. I have no problem with the assisstants already in the nfl. Perry fewel gets my vote btw.

I'm still for giving Mike next year at least. UNLESS, the team continues to play with lack of desire and this in house drama continues on. We'll see in the off-season.

Smootsmack's boots taste like cotton candy.

OMG, could you get any lower, you bootlickin', Pony....apologist!
When I throw down with the OMG....you know it's on.

That Guy · 11-13-2012, 10:06 PM

well, this thread seems to have exploded. I'd like to clear some things up though.

NC is a great bootlicker. every time i get a new pair of boots, i always ask for him by name.

matty is the reason conspiracy theorists exist. roswell - matty, jfk - matty, the great defecator conspiracy of 2004... yep, matty. he's evil.

TAFKATAFKASS - just an all around jerk... and a liar. avoid him.

and once again the reason people are avoiding this thread (or have been) is because it's basically been a 3 way circle jerk about how awful shannahan is and anyone who doesn't want him fired or immediately joins in the bashing is an idiot and an a-hole. it's not like we're never seen a trolled thread before. if this were 3-4 years ago someone would spend the time sorting through every point, but it's just generally easier to ignore people and hope they go away.

and believe it or not, i wasn't super up on getting shanny in the first place, but what's the idea? i've heard del rio mentioned seriously by one of the main culprits here. and he thinks you're the idiot.

i don't know. it's not a great situation, but there's no way he's fired before the year's up and at that point, it depends on how the season plays out and who's available. if there aren't better options, you have to sit. we went through last year without a QB cause the only ones available were matt flynn and gabbert... if we had been as reactionary as some of you guys are suggesting, we'd be an 0-fer team still looking for a QB.

vinny's gone, the team is younger, the offense (when healthy) looks like it'll be pretty good. the defense is a mess and the depth still isn't good, but it is what it is. and I think everyone agrees we're not where we want to be, but we're also not jacksonville.

and punch, maybe you are making good points, maybe you aren't, but if you think people are going to read 1,900 posts to figure it out, well, no thanks. less volume, more content please.

San Francisco 49ers: Greg Roman

Pretty impressive stats. Even moreso considering Alex Smith is his QB. This is the kind of guy I'm talking about!!! Like you said...no one knew who the hell Joe Gibbs was either and that turned out pretty well. Hire him and some young up and coming DC and we might have something for a long time. Skinsfaniok brought up Chip Kelly. I've heard good things about him also. Know much about him? Does he have any pro experience?

I like Chip Kelly, the only negative about him is he hasn't really developed a QB like Roman. Roman guided David Carr to his best year under him with Houston, Luck at Stanford and was a miracle worker with Alex Smith.

53Fan · 11-13-2012, 10:46 PM

I'd love to see Roman with RG3.

True but doesn't Roman run more of a dink and dunk offense? I'd think rg3 would rather have that full Playbook. Of course I don't watch much sf games so idk for sure
