The People v. McBeane (Alternatively, comparing SF to BUF since 2017)

Let's see, in regards to the 49ers they've just been to back to back NFC Championships and a SB appearance in 2019 that they had a 10 point lead late in the game before the legend of Mahomes emerged in the end. Mind you all of this has been accomplished with below average to average QB play.

 

Looking at the Bills, the current regimes success has been tied to getting stupid lucky with the JA17 pick. Take him out of the equation and this regime is already long gone and no different from their predecessors.

 

Bottom line...the 49ers have a great GM and HC whose just can't seem to solve the QB position but have been suburb everywhere else. And yes I would also fire McD and hire Shanahan without thinking twice about it if that were ever an option.

 

Now tell me how many super bowls we wouldve made if we were in the NFC?  I think 2020 and 2021 the NFC was pretty weak and we would have had much easier roads (also of note: teams that beat us lose the next week pretty consistently).

I posted their resumes…. They have 2 more playoff wins than McBeane. Along with 2 less playoff appearances, 2 more losing seasons and 10 less regular seasons. 
 

Did you even read the OP?

 

Again, what team has been to a SB and back to back NFCCG (3 total including the 2019 SB year)? Behind a dominant defense that actually performs in games that matter without a legit franchise QB.

 

You really think Beane/McD are better because of their overall W/L record in the regular season?? If that's the case Marty Schottenheimer is the best coach in NFL history as well.

If you are talking about overall W/L record great, I'm talking about being able to advance past the divisional round and compete for SB's consistently which is what matters (at least to me anyway) and a big reason for this is they have a defense that actually performs in the playoffs and not just the regular season.

Playoffs are specifically against your conference of which the AFC has been better the past few years.  I certainly think we get to the championship game more frequently if we are in the other conference and the niners are in this conference.

[oldmanfan]

Read Peter King’s FMIA this week.  It talks about the Niners focusing on defense.

Switch the teams (division and conference) and tell me niners have the same postseason success with the Chiefs in the division.  Also of note only the chiefs and bills have been to the playoffs and won a game each of the last three seasons.  If anything we have been very consistent of late after a slow start with McBeane

Cool. They have literally nothing to show for it.

 

Brady and the Bucs only got to the NFCCG once. I guess the Niners were more successful than them lol.

Hence why the Allen pick is the greatest pick in Bills history. And the regime who got the pick right deserves a lot of credit.  

 

For the pick.  In a lot of peoples' opinions McD is doing less with more in that regard.

Shanny the HC, sure. Shanny as what he is currently, which is like half-GM?  No chance. He is even worse with the mid round RB's than McBeane.

 

Possibly, I'm hardly a Shanahan apologist.  I wouldn't want him coaching my team.

Actually keep Josh Allen, put Bosa on the Bills, and give the 49ers Basham. Now what do you see?

 

Why not put all their good guys on our team and "see."   LOL 

 

I'll tell ya what, switch Allen for Bosa and we're a .500 team regardless.  D doesn't win in the modern NFL.

FTR, I meant sure as in there's an argument there. Not sure it's a no brainer.

 

And less with more? Idk, top 3 seed 3 years in a row?  Payton/Brees only did that once in their career together.

All kidding aside...could you imagine how fun that SF offense would be to watch if they had Allen? 

 

Yeah, no kidding.  They should be fine with Purdy, who seems to be more in the Burrow mold, but if he maintains his level of play and improves after his rookie season, they'll have their franchise QB too.  

 

It's nice to have that piece, because then you can focus on building the rest of the team.  That's what many Bills fans and a lot of media have problems with, what we've done apart from Allen.  ... and Diggs.  Hopefully this year is a turning point with Kincaid & Torrence.

This is a result of Lynch and Shannahan not being able acquire a good QB. They're to blame for that. 

 

You lay that out as if it's trivial to acquire one.  We tried for what, over 20 years, with varying people in charge, and got nothing after Kelly.  It's not that easy and also requires quite a bit of good fortune.  

 

 

[oldmanfan]

As much as I love what Josh has done thus far, when you have OJ, Bruce, and Kelly there is no way you can say he’s the best draft pick in franchise history at this point in his career.

Shanahan’s 2 EPIC chokes in the Super Bowl

 

vs.

 

McD’s 1 EPIC choke in the playoffs.

 

Advantage McD.

They have had playoff teams in their division all these years including the Rams who just won a SB 2 years ago (The 49ers nearly won the NFC championship game and swept them in regular season that year). Cardinals and Seahawks also made playoffs multiple times during that stretch.

 

Bills have played in a watered down, rebuilding AFC East from 2019 - 2022 which is why most pundits see them regressing this year now that every other team in the division has gotten better (especially Jets/Dolphins).

 

One thing I would agree on is if both the 49ers and Bills played in the Chiefs division in recent years neither of them would have been anything more than a wildcard team.

Appreciate your opinion.

 

In today's era, the QB value is higher than ever.  Allen is already a better QB than Kelly (some people disagree but that's to be expected around here). Bruce maaaaaaaaaaay have an argument, but the rest, flat out nah.

Yeah and they also advanced to the SB and won it including embarrassing the Chiefs and Mahomes in the process, something else this regime has never done and likely never will.

 

Maybe start a poll online and see how many rational, unbiased NFL fans would take Beane/McDermott over Shanahan/Lynch. I can assure you it would be lopsided in one direction for anybody that pays attention.

[GoBills808]

Credit to the Bills for drafting Allen

 

Credit to the niners for going further w out a QB

[ngbills]

Give the Niners and Josh and how many Super Bowls do they have? I say at least a couple. 

[Freddie's Dead]

One small quibble about Josh being legit best pick in Bills history.  Bruce Smith says hi.

Okay, the poll will be:

 

Shanahan/Lynch/Lance/DARNOLD/Purdy

 

vs.

 

McBeane/Allen

 

Why do a poll, let’s look at Super Bowl odds.

 

Oh look. 

Fanduel, BetMGM, DraftKings all have the Bills with better Super Bowl odds than the Niners. Caesar’s has them at the same odds.

 

Vegas must be FILLED with Bills’ fans. Don’t they know the Niners went to the NFCCG that one time? Lmao.

It’s the Niners’ fault they don’t have Josh.

Less with more:  

 

Last three seasons ...

3-0 in the Wild Card Round  (2 of those wins against QBs Thompson and Jones)  

1-2 in the Divisional Round 

0-1 in the Conference Championship Game with the person we're talking about walking the Loss over to Reid on a silver platter at the end of the game.  

A supposed defensive expert allowing an average of 28 PPG, over 31 if we don't count the offensively bereft Pats, in our last four playoff games.  

Beating the Colts w/ Rivers despite being outplayed in that game.  

4-3 overall with two of those wins against marginal playoff teams and both with low-end QBs, and another win while being outplayed by a team with the 9th ranked scoring offense and 10th ranked scoring defense and a 39-year old washed up QB in his last-hurrah season.  

 

Winning a division with QBs like Jones, Fitzpatrick, Tagovailoa whose in and out with injuries like most people go out for wings, Skylar Thompson, Mike White, Zach Wilson, and Sam Darnold is hardly impressive.  It would have been along the lines of tragic had we not been able to do that, which fed directly into those seedings. 

 

Let's see how he does this season, over/under achieves, now that there's finally some competition in the division for the first time in over 20 years.  Brady & Belichick had it easy in that regard too.

The 49ers have built an all around better team. You can harp on them for missing on picking Josh, but that is over-rewarding getting one pick right. We are lucky Mayfield and Darnold didnt drop in the draft or the story would be that we passed on Mahomes in 2017 and took one of those guys in 2018...ouch.
