Clearly you disagree with me.  But I've been saying it since the 2023 season, this team isn't being coached like they were in 2022. 

You're a good guy.  But stop ignoring reality.  The GM is bad.  But this HC and his buddies have absolutely ruined this team and are regressing our QB.

There absolutely IS something wrong with this offense and the team as a whole.

The line can't run block worth a damn against anything more than a middling defense, the receivers periodically forget how to catch and most usually when they are in the end zone or on 3rd down, and the the running back can't keep himself from fumbling the ball when he's not out with a shoulder or rib or torso or hammy. 

In spite of that, the QB is playing decent ball with a broken clock but he then tries to play hero ball because he knows if he doesn't they lose.

On top of that "We need to get bigger and stronger" netted us very little in the weeks and months after it was stated. The center and left guard are better, but the other big men positions we've discussed at length aren't despite free agent signings and draft picks, and we have almost no middle pass rush (again).

On top of that we've had injuries to key players and their back ups just aren't as good (that's the law of football).

On top of that, several players can't run simple plays without holding or procedure penalties.

On top of that we have a guy who's played like dog [BLEEP] barking at the QB on the side line then immediately turning the ball over.

On top of that we have a defensive back who's played like dog [BLEEP] telling the media the other guys quit.

On top of THAT, we have a team that gets no love from the League because they are a jobber franchise to the big markets.

On top of that we have a poster here who thinks his fevered imaginary delusions about a lazy head coach are anything more than bad fan fic so he spams them across multiple threads.

In short, there's a lot wrong and no way to fix the vast majority of it. Fire the coaches all you like, you'll only learn that coaching can only cover up the lack of talent for so long. This is a soft team rostered by soft players who fold like a lawn chair every Sunday in big moments when they have to be tough and physical. Until the guy picking these players is different you'll just keep seeing the same dysfunction over and over again. And it's unlikely that Baalke is going anywhere. I know you want a clean sweep, but that broom doesn't and can't extend to the roster, and that's where the problems are.
