Fire Hackett and bring in a coach who’s smart enough to run the offense that Wilson ran in Seattle. 

If Russ is still going to say stupid things in-game that piss off his teammates, it doesn't matter what system he's in.  He's the new Donovan McNabb.

Isn’t the problem that so much of his success came from simply going off script. That doesn’t work when your physical ability has fallen off. Wilson can’t play like 20 year old Wilson and I think he may struggle to adapt as we’ve seen really the past season and a half.

Wilson's strength has always been outside the pocket.  Unlike Hurts or Fields, Wilson has always scrambled in order to buy time for his receivers to get open.  When he is in the pocket, he throws a lot off of his back foot, thus generating less power and control over his passes.  When he is outside to the pocket his follow through is better.  His hamstring might be worse than previously known.  He is simply not trying to get out of the pocket as much.  If you make Wilson less mobile he is a lower tier quarterback.

He’s making business decisions instead of football ones.

Nick Bosa isn’t likely to hit free agency any time soon: He’s in the fourth year of his five-year rookie contract with the 49ers, and San Francisco will probably do what it takes to extend him before he could leave as a free agent. But if Bosa does hit free agency some day, he says he’ll be more likely to sign with a team that plays on grass.

Bosa: “Yeah, a hundred percent, for sure. It’s usually the older guys who know more about it. Or guys who have dealt with injuries from it. Because when you’re young and in high school and college, you think it’s fast and fun and it looks good. And then you realize after a few years, it’s like, whew, I’ll do anything to get on some grass.”

NFL players have grown increasingly vocal about their preference for grass over synthetic playing surfaces this season, but so far owners haven’t seemed to be persuaded. Perhaps if star players with the leverage to pick their next teams started choosing to play on grass, owners would get the message.
