REPORT: Robert Saleh The LEADING CANDIDATE To Land 49ers DC Job

[@eleegs]

Pay him HC money and call him assistant hc.

[@E_alvarad0]

EXACTLY. Coaches salary don't count against the cap. Saleh absolutely can be paid HC money (which he deserves) and it not hurt us in the pockets

[@justinkushable1668]

Can’t do nothing if he gets offered HC job. Ulbrich wouldn’t be a bad hire. Was a very good linebacker when he played.

[@seansurfn2]

agree. he is going to help keep our offense on the field 3x more.

[@E_alvarad0]

@seansurfn2 Remember, the 49ers had the #1 offense last year with the same players minus Aiyuk and CMC. You think our offense or Kyle is bad?

[@eleegs]

@@E_alvarad0cumulative of all aspects. When the defense drops off, Purdy slowly maturing in his second full season, and a depleted O Line- too many areas across all phases have dropped leading to a exponential collapse across the performance of the three team. Special teams just punctuated the rest of the drop off

[@ZoNose83]

Should've never left

[@backwoodsbully9841]

They all think they are HC though! Few make it!

[@brianoun9800]

He had a chance at a head coaching job couldn't blame the guy but if he's back glad to have him back

[@tylerd1297]

As a Jets fan and bandwagoner for SF- that would be awesome and I think it's the best possible move for him. His defenses in NJ were fantastic prior to this year. I think he should get another shake at HC eventually; but I think he needs to take a break from pursuing that. As much as I liked him here, there were very simple problems that he failed to lead us through (to be clear, also lots of others he couldn't do anything about if he wanted to) He needs to work on leadership and dealing with adversity.

[@E_alvarad0]

I think he gets another HC job just not this year. Jets made a HUGE mistake letting Saleh go. I think the Jets had sla bigger problem outside of the HC. Saleh is a likable guy. I hear what you're saying but I don't think Saleh was the problem and teams are lining up to have this guy on their staff for a reason

[@tylerd1297]

@E_alvarad0 i don't think he was either- that being said I don't think it was realistic to keep him past this year if things continued in the direction they were trending. As a leader he was neurotic and clearly over thought many things. I think that's a lot easier to fix than someone like Hackett who doesn't know their x's and O's for shite.

[@jessieurgea9899]

Yea I agree, the Jets have a pretty good team on paper,and at the en of the day players gotta play!!!¡!!!!!​@E_alvarad0

[@E_alvarad0]

@@tylerd1297 some guys are a lot better as a coordinator than they are as a HC. You probably watch the Jets more than me but I thought Saleh did ok and got the short end of the stick Guys like Brian Flores or Greg Roman are great as coordinators but maybe not as a HC. Coaches salary don't count toward the salary cap but these dudes absolutely deserve their pay. As a 49ers fan I'll be a fan of wherever out coaches go like the Jets, Dolphins, and Texas. Hopefully the Jets can figure something out bro. It's been too long since you all been good

[@deuceizwildinfo]

When people ask me what was wrong with our defense. This is what I said was the biggest problem. You can't keep changing DC's every year..

[@georgewashington2481]

Robert wants to come back, we want him back, it's just a formality

[@shaenesbitt]

If he does come back we’ll win a SB at Levi’s no discussion

[@roxannevlogs7329]

Get him back 🙌🏼

[@thisguyzack9922]

Let's do it👏👏👏💪💪💪

[@Deanna-Acosta1970]

Saleh please come back and help us get the Lombardi Trophey at home! You deserve a excellent team not the Raiders or Jaguars! 🙏❤💛🏈

[@paulafeaki1760]

I agree with Kelly, no need for a interview. The man knows how to lead our defense and make them play up to their potential. Hire him already!!!

[@gkelly650]

Lol trying to understand why was there an interview. Just give the man his desk back

[@msrednosepit8434]

Have to follow protocol

[@NoToBigBro]

49ers interviewing other candidates gives them some leverage w/ contract. As such, Saleh interviewing for other jobs as well gives him bargaining power w/ $.

[@adanlozano3769]

Tough decision for Saleh. HC is always tempting. Raiders is a mediocre mentality team, that is why the few good players they get, want to leave the team within the next couple of seasons. Jacksonville may be a better option if they give Saleh enough hiring power. On the other hand in SF, he's got a better chance to win a SB and position himself higher for future HC in a better team than those offered today. I hope he comes with us as a DC.

[@seansurfn2]

he jiust trued that dude.. he is a great dc.

[@fabiansalvador6495]

We should got Fangio, he Is a genius DC

[@KingsLOSEcrowns216]

Saleh..thats it... thats all!

[@brandonpotts54]

Just hire him.

[@tonesbrasil4829]

He’s our spags. Shitty coach great defense co

[@VM805]

Does he count as a minority candidate so the NFL can't complain?

[@randyasuarez]

Not sure but can't remember the last time a black coach won the super bowl.

[@VM805]

@randyasuarez Tony Dungy with the 2006 Colts.

[@dc8201]

He counts. Niners got some draft picks when he went to the Jets

[@oscarc3963]

🤞🏻🥺

[@stephenfitz_]

Youre looking really A LOT HEALTHIER, I was worried last couple years wi u downing all those beers, and looks like more sleep. !

[@stephenwhite2491]

You’re talking about saleh?

[@alfarosgarage]

Yes DC job is very interesting we have a lot of good possible candidates and Salah obviously being number 1. But when are we going to hear some news about special teams as well? Sorensen could be that guy right? But who knows no real news on it

[@PeterJoseph76]

Get him!!

[@b_side8669]

No fire clause plz!!!

[@leethomas556]

Someone will have to spoon feed me here cuz I could be wrong or biased. Saleh has taken interviews with the raiders and jaguars for HC. Those two brands are terrible and i cant see him being able to right those ships, thus hurting his own brand and perception. Wouldn't it be better for Saleh to take the 9ers DC offer where he can have more of an immediate impact for the long-term of his career?

[@dukeon]

In a rational world, yes.

[@JakeTheSnake500]

Staley was HORRIBLE with the Chargers, but he was actually a good DC for the Rams. Another team may give him a shot at DC, but I doubt he'll ever be a head coach again.

[@KaizenAloha]

Doesn’t even matter if you have him if you have coach shenanigans always giving up points in 2nd half than it’s a lose lose situation all day long

[@patrickmilton7065]

Tell us something we don't know

[@Jasjtkekwnf]

He’s not coming back 😂

[@yoadrian9808]

This the issue teams will never be great when coaches are selfish if I hire you to help us win a superbowl let’s do it. But failed organizations (losing teams) throw money at OC DC in hopes that’s all they need but it starts with the front office. I feel OC and DC need to be under contract with the head coach. It’s like a leaking bucket you always trying to fill up. I know if we didn’t lose him or other coaches I know we’d have at least 1 Super Bowl to show for it and better success

[@MattBuhl]

I paused this as soon as I heard he had a head coaching job in Jacksonville I would not recommend anyone finish the rest of this it's called gaslighting I see a 0% chance of him taking a DC job over a head coaching job I would ask your kindergartener

[@Lorenzo_tye]

Why would he want a head coaching job taking a step back to play for worse teams don’t get me wrong he’s a great coach but coaching for Las Vegas or Jacksonville is not a great idea

[@Gullylv]

I heard Deion Sanders is supposedly gonna be interviewed as well

[@Lorenzo_tye]

@ na he’s going where his son goes

[@Gullylv]

@@Lorenzo_tye his son is going to raiders mock draft so yeah

[@Lorenzo_tye]

@ yea would like to see him as dc for niners but highly likely he’ll go

[@MattBuhl]

And by the way I see this guy speak often he's the most borderline personality disorder how he talks and then talks to channahon like he's a second person

[@arthurrobinson4644]

Who cares

[@EdwardMarrufo-u2l]

Niners need Joe burrow.

[@lulugust8140]

To sit behind Brock Purdy 🤣🤣 that'd be great... 2 starting QBs for the 49ers LMAO!!! I mean I Love Dobbs but burrow is better... you probably think Burrow is better then Brock toO but definately NOT!! Brock was sitting behind a ton of injuries this season & pretty much the WORST O~line ALL season... Burrow struggled half the season with only a few players on injury & a way better O~line LoL

[@dukeon]

Play them both at the same time. Both line up, center snaps to one or the other, at random. Would fake out the whole league.

[@EdwardMarrufo-u2l]

@dukeon yup

[@rickybobby7229]

Of course hes not coming back
