Brandon Staley is the San Francisco 49ers’ problem now.
The Los Angeles Chargers’ lackluster head coach from 2021-23, Staley has been hired as the Niners’ assistant head coach.
Football fans on X/Twitter are generally not pleased.
I already know in a year or 2 theyll “promote brandon staley from within” when we need a new dc again and hope we just forgot who he was

That could be grisly.
49ers hired Brandon Staley as AHC because they need to improve in close games late in the 4th quarter.

Burn!
I’m not going to lie Brandon Staley was my sleeper pick for United Football League’s defensive coach of the month.

Fair. It’s quite remarkable that Staley has somehow found his way onto the Super Bowl finalists, as a close advisor to Kyle Shanahan.
Im not mad at it. Brandon Staley is an agressive coach I hope he can build some blitz packages

An optimist!
So the 49ers fired Steve Wilks to usher in the Brandon Staley era?

Sounds right. Chiefs have broke teams’ brains before. *cough cough Josh McDaniels *cough cough Nathaniel Hackett *cough cough Brandon Staley oh wait
It is a weird hire.
The coach still has the yips in big spots and they just hired Brandon Staley…..
