gave you a like, but i disagree with him not being a good coach. i think hes very good coach, upper tier in the league and has been for some time. but hes not elite. he can be, but hes got to get out of his own way. he focuses way too much time and energy on offensive play design and creation. he's a very good player caller and runs a nice system, even if it is a bit old school and run game biased. He's got that humming and needs to dial back the time spent with it to focus on being an actual head coach. He's too much OC, not enough HC. He has the chops and ability, just needs to decide to make the change and do it.
I hate the niners more than pretty much any team in the nfl, even my own division rivals, but will admit shanahan is realy good, but hes not elite and wont be until he makes the adjustment. He can do it, and if he does they wil probably get over the hump. the question is will he and with every year that passes, it looks more like just isnt willing, despite being more than capable. Too stubborn to get out of his own way so far.
