Gattis needs to get out of the booth, and onto the sidelines.

But what’s the portability of his security camera ‘s?

How many times will we have to see threads like this? I hope they bludgeon Rutgers to a pulp and maybe we won't see threads like this.
September 23rd, 2019 at 6:44 PM ^
So many shitty hottakes, dear lord, please make it stop.
I can't wait for the "Harbaugh needs to stop weariing khakis" thread.

Harbaugh needs to wear blue pants.
September 23rd, 2019 at 6:53 PM ^
Someone else's sideline, preferably...we were better off last year.
September 23rd, 2019 at 7:04 PM ^
He has no clue, almost no experience, no flow or feel for the game, and no plan. Getting on the sidelines will just make it worse.
September 23rd, 2019 at 7:05 PM ^
Harbaugh was asked today if he is dissatisfied with the offense and if he will take a stronger role calling plays. He said no, it's Josh's offense and he has total confidence in the coaches and the players, blah blah blah...
I realize this is mostly PR speak, but this response is really disappointing. Better means different. The offensive approach, game planning and play calling are not working. He has to make changes.
You can put Gattis anywhere and it still won't make a difference. This offense is doomed without some serious changes.

Gattis needs to say, "Jim, is there still time to bring Jedd Fisch back to help sort out this mess?"

Not a good idea. There's a reason the coordinator is in the booth and it's the same reason they don't watch game film from a sideline camera. I might be remembering wrong, but I think Gattis called an okay game. Okay isn't good enough against a quality opponent but that was only his third time calling a game. Our line couldn't block anyone and Gattis tried the quick slants and screens but the offense couldn't execute. We couldn't run the ball, quick hitters failed, and Shea was running for his life and getting drilled almost every time he dropped back. I'm not sure what play he could confidently call to even get a few yards and certainly not 10 plus.

Wow.
The O.C. can see the game better from the press box?
Amazing. Never would have thought of that...
Now try expanding your thinking to the plethora of potential reasons, that at this time, it would actually be a good idea.
Hmmmmm.
The amount of brilliant narrow-mindedness on this board is amazing.
September 23rd, 2019 at 10:11 PM ^
I disagree. It's important to have somebody in the box with a clear understanding of how defenses are reacting, particularly with an RPO-oriented offense. The one actually calling the plays is typically the best choice for that.
September 23rd, 2019 at 10:17 PM ^
Harbaugh hired this dude for a million a year over the phone ...f-en crazy.
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:14 PM ^
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:53 PM ^
What benefit do we get by having the OC out of the box? A sideshow on the sideline? Besides, you have a better advantage from the box to see the plays develop.
September 24th, 2019 at 10:13 AM ^
I disagree. He need to empower someone on the sidelines to handle business as needed. Period... but that doesn't seem like it's happening at all. Clown shoes.
September 24th, 2019 at 8:48 PM ^
It won’t help at all. We’re all just buying time until Harbaugh retires and the next head coach is announced.
