The 49ers turned it around under head coach Kyle Shanahan since 2017, and CBS Sports took notice.
Not long ago, FanSided’s Russell Baxter ranked San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan as the league’s 16th best head coach heading into 2020.
The placement, understandably, wasn’t too popular among Niners fans who felt the 40-year-old Shanahan deserved to be placed much higher, particularly when comparing some of the names Baxter placed higher than No. 16.
But the thing about power rankings and lists of these kinds is they’re entirely objective.
