8. I would not be so fast to fire the 49ers Defensive Coordinator

The issue over the last 3 games is more on the offensive side of the ball. I think the game vs Cleveland showed the rest of the league how to defense Brock Purdy. Since Cleveland, the 49ers faced two teams with very competent defensive coordinators able to look at what the Browns did vs 49ers and apply those tactics in their games vs San Francisco. Over the last 3 outings, Purdy has thrown 3 TDs against 5 INTs with a QB rating of 76.

It also didn't help the 49ers yesterday that Joe Burrow finally got back to his usual form as a top 3 QB. The 49ers were simply not able to slow him down, and their offense was not able to counter Burrow's production.
