One more Chip, still 5 rings: Official 49ers 2016 Offseason Thread

[LastEmperor2k2]

Hmm, guess it makes sense but why even interview anyone associated with the browns?

Yep the Stink around the notion you're considering the Browns OC as a HC candidate is pretty bad

Not gonna panic yet, too early

His offenses averaged 6th in the league, clearly something was working. Eagles went 10 wins twice before he gutted the team. I'd be willing to give him a shot as long as he doesn't have control over personnel.

They were 6th in the league while playing the NFC east half the year. The Giants D hasn't been good since they beat Brady in the Super Bowl. The Redskins are barely good this year after being terrible the past few years and the Cowboys D has been dogshyt for a while.

Also, I don't think you can discount the fact that he himself gutted the team. The removal of talent was done from his perspective as a head coach meaning he was doing what he thought was optimal for his system. He wasn't given shyt and told to polish it. He was given gold and took a shyt on it.

Since Chip Kelly is the flavor of the day:

49ers head coach search: Myth-busting top concerns about Chip Kelly

2. Chip’s offense is gimmicky and NFL defenses have caught on
Observers have been waiting to tell Chip Kelly to take his gimmicky offense back to college since the moment he arrived on the NFL scene. With the Eagles falling to 26th in offensive DVOA and taking a step back in the win column this year, those people finally got their chance.

However, to call Kelly’s offense gimmicky is to fundamentally misunderstand the foundations of his scheme and can likely be attributed to his willingness to be different in a league that values doing things because "that’s the way they’ve always been done." Much of what gets these "NFL purists," or whatever you want to call them, in a ruckus is nothing more than fresh window dressing on the same plays every team in the NFL uses. Even before Kelly left Oregon and began to adapt his scheme to the professional game, his offense was rooted in old-school, inside-running principles. Where Kelly’s relative uniqueness comes in is his ability to meld those old-school principles with new-age tactics like the up-tempo, no-huddle approach his teams are known for.

To say Kelly should be credited for introducing to professional football many of the concepts he’s criticized for would also be incorrect. Tom Brady and Peyton Manning have been carving up defenses with the no-huddle outside of the two-minute drill for years — which also happens to be a strategy the NFL can trace back to the Bengals of the 1980s — and the Patriots began to implement Kelly’s famed tempo back in 2012. Washington integrated spread tactics into their offense during Robert Griffin III’s rookie season with great success, and the Patriots (hmm, I’m sure it’s a coincidence they keep popping up) heavily utilized a shotgun spread approach during their record-breaking season in 2007.

More recently, a number of teams — Green Bay, Pittsburgh, Carolina, Seattle, Tennessee, and more — have implemented run-pass options into their offensive attack that first gained popularity at the college level and were deployed by Kelly’s Eagles. Tactics attributed to Chip’s gimmicky offense have already spread throughout the league, and they’re tactics that are here to stay.

There’s also the notion that NFL defensive coordinators have caught on to Kelly’s tricks, but it’s more likely that is an overreaction to one poor season. Philadelphia had the third-best offense in football during Kelly’s first season with the Eagles. Kelly’s sophomore effort saw a step back to 13th in offensive DVOA, but that can be largely attributed tosignificant injuries at quarterback and along the offensive line after finishing 2013 as the league’s healthiest team.

It’s been a different story in 2015 with Philadelphia’s fall from 13th to 26th in DVOA, which is the fourth-largest drop in the NFL this season. But as ESPN’s Bill Barnwell detailed back in November, Philadelphia’s struggles on offense can be more easily connected to the failings of Chip Kelly the GM rather than Chip Kelly the coach. And as Barnwell also points out, we’ve yet to see what Kelly can do with a competent quarterback. Kelly’s offense produced back-to-back above-average seasons with Mike Vick, Nick Foles, Mark Sanchez, and Matt Barkley, yet we’re ready to say his offense won’t work after one bad season with Sam Bradford under center? It all seems a bit premature.

Funny thing is McCoy and Jackson fit his offense perfectly

His ego was way out of control

 

[B90X]

So one metric says that

Almost every other metric says otherwise

Passing TDs
Yards per game
Accuracy
Wins
Yards per attempt
Passer rating

It wasn't much better, but 75 more passing yard per game tells you a whole lot

Also check his picks, Gabbert had about Half his picks have nothing to do with him

I'll take Gabbert over that loser kap, but in reality we need to draft someone either this year or next but definitely dump that 14m sprinter

It's looking like the Coaches the Niners are looking like are Pro-Kap.

49ers interview coaches who have coveted Kaepernick

But even as Kaepernick is beginningrehabilitation of shoulder, thumb and knee surgeries, the early stages of the 49ers’ search for a new coach look to be lining up favorably for a possible Kaepernick return in 2016.

At least two of the top candidates for the 49ers’ vacant head-coaching job are known to have coveted quarterback Colin Kaepernick in the past. Chip Kelly interviewed for the openingon Thursday, and Hue Jackson is scheduled to interview on Sunday.

Kelly, whom the Philadelphia Eagles fired on Dec. 30, reportedly attempted to acquire Kaepernick from the 49ers in the offseason. Kelly’s up-tempo offenses at Oregon functioned best with a mobile quarterback. Kaepernick’s unique skillset could to be a nice match for Kelly’s system.

In 2013, two years after his one-and-done tenure as Raiders coach, Jackson told Peter King of the MMQBhow much he and Al Davis wanted Kaepernick in the draft. The 49ers moved up to No. 36 to select Kaepernick. The Raiders almost certainly would have taken Kaepernick at No. 48.

"I think about it all the time, believe me,'' Jackson said. "No question in my mind we wanted it to happen, and no question I thought it could happen. We wanted the kid in the worst way.''

Kaepernick told King, “Coach Jackson told me before the draft they were going to do everything they could to try to get me.”

Nah breh, there defense was ass.

They averaged 17.4 ppg and scored 278 total points for the season. As a comparison, the Niners averaged 14.9 ppg and scored a total of 238 points for the season.

They had a patchwork of qbs. With mccown the offense was pretty decent.

Seriously, who is the leading candidate? Hue?

 

[Rekkapryde]

shaw isn't coming here, even if shaw wanted to leave, they made sure that move would never happen

I wanted Shaw, but there's no way he would ever consider coming here after what Jed did to Jim. That's a complete pipe dream.
