Kyle does for quarterbacks what Mike used to do for running backs. He makes great into elite, good into great, average into good, and bad into just below average. And that is because the "system" is the little heard of strategy to surround the QB with talent vs hoping the qb can make anyone work.
Yeah this is so incredibly reductive and flat out wrong. Wrong because Shanahan didn’t always have the stacked offensive skill he has right now and he still made it work. Just look Garoppolo’s first 6 starts with the Niners (all wins) after he was traded from NE.
Shanahan is a great offensive coordinator and playcaller independent of his skill position talent. Acting like the strategy is “just get good players” is beyond stupid when he’s probably one of the best in the NFL in getting guys open.
It's dope how you conveniently left out they were 1-10 before that. It's also odd (and just flat out wrong) that you said Jimmy's first 6 starts and not 5. Because he only started 5 games when they first got him in 2017 and went 5-0. His 6th start was the opener of the 2018 season which they lost. So he started 5-1 in his first 6 starts.
I swear, it really feels like some of you guys just started watching football this year but also like being really opinionated.
