I have said this many times.......Shanahan is the Belichick of offense. I always thought he was right there with Andy Reid as the best offensive mind in the game but honestly, he may actually be better coz what he's done WITHOUT Maholmes at QB. Losing this kind of draft capital would set most teams back a few years min.
yea.. hes like Billy Boy alright. .... only in that they both BLINDLY drafted someone they had zero expectations from and it turned out to be the golden goose.
Shanahan is so great that the Niners were 3-4 last year before Purdy took over. You think Shanahan got a hole of Purdy and in 5 months turned him into an all pro? How come Lance sucks? So the guy gets credit for the player that kicks butt, but he gets no blame for giving away tons of draft capital for a player that is a bust? What happened to the great shanahan magic? Why isnt Lance looking amazing????
He lost a ton of draft capital and it hasnt killed them ONLY because they LUCKED OUT with Purdy. If Purdy didnt hit, Shanahan would be getting fired next year along with Lynch for trading away so much for a garbage player.
Sometimes it is better to be lucky.... Billy Boy and Shanahan both prove that with their luck QB draft picks.
How great is Billy boy looking now?
