Kyle Shanahan grew up around the NFL following his father from stop to stop on the coaching carousel before getting on it himself so he knows full well how rare it is to have a long stay at one spot.
That's one reason why Shanahan feels fortunate about the stability he found in his first head coaching job with the San Francisco 49ers that was only reinforced when the team announced another contract extension for him last week.
The deals were officially announced last Friday, keeping the duo under contract through at least the 2027 season. "Sometimes when you come into a situation that looks really hard to win in the first couple years you're nervous about it because you know how the pressure goes when you lose, no matter what people say," Shanahan said."It gets tough to stick with the plan and that's what made it so exciting the first time, meeting with Jed and the commitment he gave us and what he said.
But Shanahan's strengths go beyond the play-calling with players frequently citing his honesty and ability to communicate with them as attributes that are just as important.

NFL betting: Don't be afraid of laying a big number with the 49ersThe NFL season moves along to Week 4 while I'm wondering how it's almost 25% over already. I like to call September the discovery phase. It's the time for adjusting priors and gaining confidence over your understanding of the 2023 version of each team. That's why I call Week 4 the 'trap week.' Throughout the season, you will often hear discourse around the use of the term 'trap' in regard to games in which a team may lose focus due to scheduling or quality of opponent. This is something completely different. Anyone who bets the NFL consistently knows that Week 1 is packed with shocking results. Week 2 brings us back down to earth, so the third week produces a mental tiebreaker, tipping the scales on our newly formulated opinions. Just when we feel comfortable we know these teams, Week 4 can pull the rug out from right under us. Test your positions, but do it with a measured approach.
