As I stated in the previous thread, I am not sure how to fix the problems with this team. However, insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result. I'm fully aware that most things won't change until Jerry sells, but this is the best way I can think of for trying to start fixing this mess.
I like Mike, but it's time for a new coaching staff (except for Bones as our special teams has been our best unit). So, below, I will name my ideal coaching staff between HC, DC, and OC:
HC - Aaron Glenn. He's the Lions DC. He also played for us (while Campbell played for us) from 2005-2006. We've gone offense with Garrett and Mike. I want to try something different. I think Glenn would help bring a physicality and a focus to our biggest weaknesses on defence. I think he's shown that he's a leader of men with the way he's turned the Lions defence into what they became. I think he'd make a good HC for us.
DC - Robert Saleh. To be complimentary of Glenn, I think Saleh would make a great DC for us. He'd bring a physical defence like we've seen from him. I think Glenn and Saleh would make a great team together to get this defence to playing more physically. That should help protect Micah and the rest of them by virtue of the fact we should be able to stop the run better and should be much more physical.
OC - Chris Foerster. He's the 49ers oline coach and running game coordinator (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Foerster). With the position he coaches, he's bound to be more focused on the oline and running the ball. This would benefit Dak because we would be able to run the ball more efficiently. This leads to more points in the RedZone, and likely it would lead to more opportunities for Dak to get the ball to our receivers on play actions. On top of this, the position he has coached for a long time would lead me to think that we would be much more physical on the ground.
So, yes, I think our coaching staff next year should be Aaron Glenn at HC, Robert Saleh at DC, Foerster at OC, and Bones at ST. I think this gives us a chance to start really focusing on improving our weaknesses. By focusing on them, we can turn them into strengths. These weaknesses happen to be the very core of fundamental football. So, by fixing what's the core of fundamental football, it stands to reason that we would likely be a much better team. It would probably take a couple of years to get the pieces together, but we saw how rapidly things changed when we got Quinn at DC. I would imagine our defence would have a considerable change and improvement just from this change alone. Additionally, we would be adding in a healthy dose of physical offense to make Dak's life much easier. I think this gives us the best chance of starting to improve this team, and starting to fix where our biggest weaknesses are.
Jerry does usually listen to his coaches. So, maybe having voices that are focused on physical football in his ear can help make this team more physical. Maybe, just maybe, we can see our window start to open again in the nearer future than it is now. Hopefully
