When are we going to realize that coordinators are not magicians?

We simply don't have the players to be successful right now. It is as simple as that.
Offense was running fine with Olave, Shaheed and a healthy offensive line, when those bodies started dropping so did the offense.

The starting OL was all back this week and they could not run the ball. And it was strange that KK kept running stretch plays that were losing yards and that he refused to give Miller the ball despite him playing well when given a chance.

No Olave, Shaheed, Means, Hill....

someone is always missing out of the lineup and KK has had to constantly readjust to what he has available.
 
You not kidding, dude was terrible today, but that's just my opinion.
Good opinion lol. He was terrible and has been all year with the exception of a couple games. He also struggles getting the plays called in quickly.
 
I believe Rizzi will make changes, he just can't now. I think.he lacks the authority to do so and well he can only work with what he has got. Can't get new coordinators mid-season so easily
He already made a change with the Defensive Line coach, putting Grantham in a "senior advisory role." Grantham is already moving on to coach in college. If Rizzi is eventually hired as Head Coach, I'd expect him to make more changes and mold the coaching staff as he sees fit.

Highlights KK's inability to adapt mid-game on the fly. A very necessary trait to be a successful head coach or coordinator in the NFL.

That doesn't really explain the issues with not being able to run the ball against a giants DL with UDFAs starting while you have your entire starting OL and #1 RB healthy. Yes, you don't have the QB power plays with Hill hurt, but you still should be able to run the ball and it looked like it was mostly the play calling and refusal to use Miller that was stopping them.

And having to adjust week to week and in game due to injury and/or opponent is kind of a major part of what NFL OCs do.

the motion change that the nfl rules implemented hurt the 49ers as well.
 
Yeah, I'm not sold on Klint Kubiak. I think he is gone after this year.

I think that Taysom can make anyone look good so Taysom was masking a lot of faults in KK's game planning. If he couldn't scheme a super winning way against the lowly Giants, dear God, the next four weeks are going to be abysmal.

Couple that with him being a Dennis Allen want/hire, right there is the proof that he ain't that great.
It's his first season. They started off hot and the injuries piled up and with the revolving door never really let up. I think he should get at least one more season. Coaches grow in their careers like players do. I bet KK will be better next season than this season.

That said, it really all depends on the HC situation. With a new coach, it's quite possible the new coach will want someone else running the offense. That said, I'm sure KK will get an interview and he'll be coaching somewhere if not with us.

I'm wondering if because he's been dealing with injuries, he was on a snap count. Or there are other considerations. Just seems like more to the story for him to be that limited.

As for the starting OL being back, maybe they were rusty or still playing at less than 100%. They didn't look good. But I'm just hoping it was an off week and they get it together this week. The offense is gonna need to score against the Commanders.

Yeah, the Giants basically dared them to throw. They were selling out to stop the run. So that's probably part of it. Curious to see what adjustments are made this week.
