I’ve supported him from day 1 despite his flaws, but enough is enough. I can no longer support him and claim he isn’t a liability each and every Sunday.

I hate that he doesn’t ever hold anyone accountable. But he won’t be held accountable either. Kliff will be given at least another year to figure it out.

Legit don’t even think he called hard motion after it worked on that Dan TD.

Don’t even think he called it at all in the 2nd half. Does he not watch how the Niners have beaten the Rams their last 4 meetings?

Literally was the same as last week.


I don’t get it. Why the hell is he going away from what kept the team competitive last year despite having much worse personnel after the Panthers game?

It’s infuriating. I gave him some benefit of the doubt in most of the losses this year, but this loss was completely on him.

I hopped off last week. I’ll still cheer for him and support him as long as he’s on the Cardinals sidelines, but I did something I haven’t done in a long time and that’s call for a head coach to be fired.

McVay is a better coach than KK...does that shock anyone?

The Rams defense is maybe the best in the NFL.

KK's play calling from the first drive to the last drive in the 1st half sucked. He called a much better game in the 2nd half.

Why we don't throw it to Hopkins too many times vs not enough just boggles me. That to me is the biggest issue with this offense.

Yeah I’ve been off this guy can’t coach I wouldn’t even want him as an OC. Need someone who pushes Murray I feel like KK acquiesces to him.

On the pick 6 to Isabella, Hopkins was wide open (from what I could tell). I think if that was Fitzgerald he would have at least had a chance to break up the pass. Isabella just kinda sat there.

I’m pretty done with Isabella they should play Keesean over him unless they just have Isabella running a go route

Kliff is playing checkers.

Other NFL coaches like McVay are playing chess.
Mahomes once trailed 42-3 in the 1st half to a 2 win (at the time) Iowa State steam.

Years in the NFL>>coaching Mahomes in college

McVay just has that advantage. I think Kliff can be as good, but he just doesnt know as much. Rams ability to create YAC plays is a sight to see.

Maybe we just need more horses I guess.

I 100% agree

what’s weird is we can play well against the Niners and the Niners usually stuff the Rams but the Rams always beat us.

He needs to call out and hold KM accountable. He’s definitely coddling that guy.

Niners’ front 4 aren’t nearly as disciplined containing mobile QBs like LA’s front 4. That helps a lot.

Plus, our defense plays way more disciplined against Shanny’s O than McVay’s O for some reason.

So tired of all the dink & dunk stuff. Where's all the creativity at? Motions, hell, I'd settle for a damn flea flicker right now. He was more creative last season with less talent. One thing that kills me is this, any OC can use the same plays with the TE to gain yards on the pinch block & release plays, many do, KK does not. I have no idea why? It's like a 5 yard gain instantly, pinch block, release to the seam, occupy a LB. Pinch block, release on a drag route. Positive gains 90% of the time & if they don't work they at least occupy a defender from the middle of the field for someone else to make a play. Does KM even read a defense? On the pick 6, whoever the outside WR was broke free completely wide open yet he doesn't see it & throws to Isabella with 2 guys right there. Baffling, totally. No creativity whatsoever.

KK might be a cool dude and all, but he’s not cut out for the NFL. He treats KM like his little bro and whatever he’s coaching...KM isn’t responding. This offense relies way too heavily on KM making spectacular plays, rather than having good play design. The lack of motion and misdirection is mind boggling. There’s no imagination to this offense, and once it’s out of rhythm...game over.

This times 1k. KeeSean might not have the speed but honestly the guy has done everything in his second year when called upon. He can catch and can run a route... Isabella is really fast at doing none of these

Do the players have faith in him and his game plan?

Once that belief is lost things unravel quickly. Blame starts getting cast around.

Jimmy G carved us up last year and made his #s look better overall on the year than they really were.

1st game of the season he was without his starting Wrs.

Even in the losses last year, we played better in both against them than in every single loss against the McVay Rams.


No matter who the 49ers field out there or who we field out there, the Niners really never dominated us like the Rams have.


Even in this current slump, I would not be surprised if we sweep the Niners in the few weeks.


Shanahan just doesn't put fear in this team like McVay does.

I think thats primarily a Jimmy G issue.

Also its the fact we can move the ball better against the 49ers than the Rams.

Rams seem to force us to have more 3 and outs.

People need to face the real elephant in the room & thats the limitations of Kyler. Not ever stepping up in pocket to throw & not been able to hit even short passes over middle is killing this team. The running was masking it but not anymore.
