If Daboll was fired I would hope they have someone lined up to take over. It makes no sense just to fire him without having a backup plan. Bowen will takeover as interim? Doesn't make sense.

Banks is a miss but if Schoen doesn't get credit for obvious consensus picks in Thibodeaux or Carter that have looked great then it's not fair to knock him for an obvious consensus pick that failed in Neal

In all candor I believe Neal was as much of a victim of poor coaching as his own shortcomings. With his size and athletic ability he should not have appeared as lost as he had when he was playing.

At Alabama, he was one of a few who got the job done entirely on physical superiority (Alex Leatherwood was another). You need solid fundamentals and a decent amount of skill in the NFL as you will seldom be as physically superior as you were in college. If he could have learned to get out of his stance on passing plays he could have been decent. Not good enough to warrant #7 overall but decent.

Thibideaux and Carter have not looked good against the run

They haven't but the whole defense has been horrible and I think that's a result of Shane Bowen so I'm not putting much stock into that

Went back and took a look at some of shots Dart has taken. There was one in the end of the 49ers game where he was hit in the shoulder then the back of his neck and then his head hit the turf. He got up and threw a TD to Gunnar but then when he went to the sideline he crouched down either in pain or dizziness. Why was he even in the game at that point?

Kafka is the interim coach. If you know Daboll is not your future coach there's no reason to let him stay around and ruin your franchise QB

I think its a good idea to give Kafka the shot given that he's on the list of candidates
