The 49ers need help.
This time of year, every NFL team scouts itself. Combs through the previous season and discovers what went right and what went wrong. You’d think the head coach would be the perfect person to lead this project. He isn’t. He’s biased, and so are his assistant coaches. They all think the same way and have become too close to their team.
Kyle Shanahan needs an unbiased outsider to direct the autopsy of last season. Someone whose emotions aren’t involved. Someone objective.
I nominate me.
You might think I’m prejudiced against Shanahan because I’ve criticized him at times the past two seasons.
