Tell us how you really feel.

LaFleur has the chops to improve the run game that IMO is the focus of the new regime. LaFleur also understands the 49ers, which should obviously aid & assist in those contests. It's time for the Los Angeles Rams of 2023-24 to get physical and they better draft accordingly.

You'll be much happier when Mike White signs with the Rams because of LaFleur.

There are also some ancillary, non-football advantages.

McVay and LaFleur can share wardrobes.

 

[rdlkgliders]

Best of luck to him, I sure hope he gets to express his philosophy in a manner that gels with our already-established strengths.

 

[Allen2McVay]

I’m not saying he lacks run-game knowledge and experience. However, I believe LaFleur was the 49ers’ pass-game coordinator; and Mike McDaniel was their run-game coordinator.

As long as Matthew Stafford doesn’t end up like Tua or last season. He should be alright.

den,
Why do you think he understands the Whiners?
~ArkyRamsFan~

Because he coached there for 3 years and had been with Shanahan in Atlanta too.

He’s Shanny’s old Bi ‘ch Boy going back to the Falcons.

 

[OldSchool]

Solid enough hire we all kind of expected.

 

[dieterbrock]

You'll be much happier when Mike White signs with the Rams because of LaFleur.

That would be pretty fantastic, especially after they draft Clayton Tune

I do like Clayton Tune...Nice!

 

[Mackeyser]

Using Powell like Deebo will yield big dividends…

Also, love their passing game which allows tons of short crossing patterns which as a fam seem totally predictable, but defenses struggle to stop even with middling QBs

I'd put it more like LaFleur bought the doughnuts, however, both Shanahan & Mike LaFleur obviously do not indulge in the fried cakes.

True, but the Jets ran the ball extremely well under his watch.
