1. Since Kyle has been coach, he is 0-24 when trailing by 7 points in the 2nd half. That means, Kyle's teams have not come from behind in any game he's coached over close to 4 years.
2. He has a career losing record as head coach after 4 years.
3. He's never had a 1000 yard WR since taking the job, and he drafts WR's pretty much every year. Richie James, Dante Pettis, Jalen Hurd, Deebo Samuel, Juan Jennings, and Brandon Aiyuk.
4. He's an offensive mind, but some of his best players on offense are an undrafted RB, undrafted #3 WR Bourne, and undrafted Nick Mullens. He's chosen these guys. He traded up to draft CJ Beatherd in the 3rd round, and has so much confidence in him, that he won't play him. Either he can play or he can't. If he can't, why is he on the roster? He had an opportunity to see both of these players in 2018. He decided that Mullens proves to be the best option at the back up QB. You must agree with him.
5. His teams this year have lost to presently 4 backup QB's... Fitz, Winston, Haskins, Wentz.
Kyle has many many flaws. I mean when your teams lose 10+ games in 3/4 seasons... there has to be some flaws.
Go check McVays career record. Then how about McDermott.
6. downsos, hardcore and rap are suffering from recency bias. I don't hold it against you. You are used to putrid offenses, and so mediocre ones make you think he's a "good" or even "great" playcaller. I don't know how much math or science you took; even you even took a college statistics course, but this is the data. Kyle's offenses in 4 seasons. 2020. 14th in offense, 20th in points (average to below average with respect to the league. 2019. 4th in offense, 2nd in points (elite level). 2018. 16th in offense, and 21st in points (avg/below avg). 2017. 12th in offense, and 20th in points (above average, below average).
4 years. One year elite. 3 years sub-optimal. Which is the outlier?
Like I said, recency bias. Tomsula/Kelly and even Harbaugh had far below offenses, and some bordering on the worst in football. So an upgrade from 27-32nd to 15-21st seems like amazing!
