It’s no secret that Kyle Shanahan and the San Francisco 49ers run one of the most dangerous, electric offenses in football. Even though Kyle’s father, Mike Shanahan, was a first-time offensive coordinator for the Denver Broncos in 1985, when he brought the “Shanahan system” (as the scheme is commonly called around the league) to the NFL, today’s version of the “Shanahan system” feels even more dominant than It used to be with the old man at the helm.
How can we be sure about that? Just look around the league. There are about a dozen teams that, right now, are trying to deploy what Shanahan does in San Francisco, with the New York Jets representing the latest organization to get in on the fun.
