I think you both are right. In a perfect world we could bring in the best coaches and best personnel money could buy but here we're coming out of Salary Cap hell and have to try to be patient and hope to heck the powers that be get their act together and what is right and best for the 49ers.

TANK you're right about the personnel deficencies and Donahue's conservatism in going after what we really needed (Nickel & Dime DB's) and a #2 WR. We're as only strong as our winkest link has certainly and glaringly been exposed this year. On any given play it is 11 v 11, and if everybody is not pulling their weight it becomes a feeding frenzy and boy have we been feasted upon this year.

TIM you're right also, because if we had better coaching I think the 49ers would be "funner" to watch and getting maximum utilization out of each player.

Like I said earlier, Mooch had the comfort of Steve Young, Jerry Rice, Hearst, etc. to pretty much stay out of the way and let them do what they have been doing for years.
It's obvious we've needs in coaching and personnel, the question is, what decisions is the brass going to make? I think if Mooch had a more talented NFL QB who could do some of the things Garcia can't do, he probably would be more comfortable and prone to open things up and be more creative, as I watched Plummer vs Garcia, I couldn't help but think how much more polished Plummer looked in doing some of the things NFL QB's are supposed to be able to do and think if we could somehow pick up Plummer and market Garcia, that might be a quicker fix and long term answer to are QBOTF. I think Plummer, like Hearst before him, was unfortunate going to a franchise like the Cardinals. I do think Mooch does have some enviable qualities and maybe upgrading the QB position would be a better solution. And yes lets upgrade the OL this year during the draft and FA. What do you guys think?

TANK - I also think LDE is an area that has bo be addressed, Okeafor & Engelberger just aren't getting the results we need.
