I’ve seen a lot of comments about how the GM and Salah need to go because of how the roster is getting wasted. I can understand the GM, but what exactly is Salah supposed to do? Defensive coach whose defense is playing great. He’s stuck with a young qb who wasnt supposed to be playing this year, made worse by an o-line that isn’t exactly stellar. Can’t bench him because there’s nothing better on that roster. Salah has said all the right things publicly by trying to give Zach confidence even if they don’t really believe in him. Seems like he’s just stuck in a no-win scenario and will end up scapegoated for it
Fans are really inconsistent about this. For example, Shanahan hasn’t really gotten much credit for the great 49ers defense of the last couple of years. Along those lines, he also gets way more crap for 28-3 than Dan Quinn ever has. Lose lose situation for a lot of coaches.
Simply put, people blame who they want to because they don’t like them, and that’s about all there is to it.
