I've been saying this all alone. It's one thing to say "we won" in the regular season. But in the playoffs, when the stakes are higher, the consequences are greater and when you need to be sharp in all four phases of the game - offense, defense, special teams and coaching - it's not the time to dismiss obvious inadequacies.
In order to get to the Super Bowl, we're going to have to wade through either the Packers, the Cardinals, the Rams or the Bucs. It is then when these deficiencies will surface. And we'd better have a team like the 70s Steelers to rise above inept coaching.
As for the future, I think if McCarthy falls short of the Super Bowl (especially if McCarthy commits some egregious error in the playoffs), he's gone to be replaced by Kellen Moore. Jerry will eat McCarthy's contract. Jerry doesn't want to lose Kellen. And I believe Kellen has more pull with the organization - and authority - than McCarthy. Garrett proved not to be Jerry's Landry. McCarthy really isn't going to be his Landry. He's a figurehead. But Kellen fits the bill. He and Quinn are really the head coaches of the team. They and Dak. McCarthy is the inspirational watermelon smasher. And if it were left up to him, Nolan would still be the defensive coordinator.
