CC: Niners Eliminated from Playoff Contention

Submitted by LS And Play on

I know this might fit into the NFL thread from earlier, but I thought it might warrant its own. Does this change the timeline at all? Is everything still in a holding pattern until after December 28th?

Could our actual future coach be taking his team to a bowl and not need the bat shit circus that follows a coaching change?  Harbaugh knows this and is doing Michigan a solid, it doesn't cost him anything.  The press that covers him doesn't think he is going to Michigan.  The current fans don't get in his ass because they can never believe a coach would take a minor leage job,  never mind the same money and less(?) work.  The rumor doesn't effect his current job because he is going to be fired either way.  It does cover Michigan to do a proper search to find the best person never mind where he is from or who's coaching tree.  I would put my money on him to Michigan but could just as easily be he wants to coach in the NFL.  Helps us either way.

The 49ers have one of the worst offenses in the league. Why do we want Harbaugh so bad?

They showed a stat during the game and since week 7 the 49ers are dead last in every major category. Does this not concern anyone? Kapernick literally looks like Devin Gardner out there and this was Harbaughs hand picked guy.

Watching UM on saturdays this year and 49ers on sunday was like watching the same team.

I suppose, Harbaugh could recruit at sugh a high level that he could win playing man-ball but with the way CFB is going now I'm not sure that will be a winning formula.

You are critiicizing Harbaugh for the lack of productive for an archetyical spread option QB. Kap ran the Pistol at Nevada. His skill set is very similiar to Mariota's.

The issue is not with Manball, but a QB who isn't good enough of a passer to be consistently excellent in the NFL. It also doesn't help that the team is disfunctional.

Are you seriously saying the 49ers should have chosen Smith over Kaepernick??  Wow.  Smith, the guy who in the 2 minute offense is throwing 5 yard outs.  The guy who has thrown 0 TD passes to his receivers this year.  That has to be one of the dumbest comments I have even read on here.

If he was told not to run him, it doesn't show in the stats.  Last year he ran the ball 92 times in 16 games.  This year he has run the ball 90 times in 14 games.

I would venture to guess that the locker room issues they talk about has caused them to lose a couple close games that would otherwise have them in contention right now.
