It needs another infusion of talent and that takes a draft. It is easy to pin blame on the coaches but I think there really isn't much more they can do. Dropped balls continue to happen, misfits still happen, guys still get beat, the linebackers are still slow and easily exploited, Alualu still is average, Roy Miller still isn't good against the run, MJD is still slow and looks heavy (I do think he is slowly improving), Chad Henne is still Henne, etc. People want a miracle out of this roster and it ain't happening. I watched the team get bullied at the line of scrimmage just like I expected them too. San Fran is bigger, faster, and stronger. I mean that usually means you're going to get your butt kicked, which is what happened. I know people want "competitive" but we simply aren't there.

 

Caldwell inherited a dumpster fire for a roster, he started new reconstruction, and the team just happened to have several games on the schedule that we basically had no chance in hell of winning. Now the team just walked through the slaughterhouse and people want to blame the coach? Reality check, we faced last years superbowl runner up (if that is what you call it), SF is loaded, and they came to do what good teams do to bad teams: punch us in the mouth, kick us down, and then back the car over us repeatedly. Let's face reality, people! 8 games in the hole. The team has gotten better at the secondary, the offense has shown flashes, they have grown in my opinion but they are STILL a BAD TEAM at least for now.
