Disagree. I think candidates look at HCs in their division, and quality of team, and it factors heavily. There's been no cycling with the 3 teams in our division. At least two have made the playoffs for the last how many years? When was the last time any of them had a losing record? When the Niners drafted Lance because of injuries?
Niners, Rams and Chicks have this division locked down. Practically guaranteed 10 wins each per year for the foreseeable. The only possible change is if Stafford retires and McVay decides to join him or move on. But they have two 1st's this year and I expect them to turn them into capital for next years QB class. Or draft someone like Nussmeier and have him learn.
