I have to ask though, does anyone think we wouldn't have won a Superbowl if we had Mahomes instead of Alex Smith 2013-2017? We lost multiple playoff games where we allowed 18 or less points lol. But yeah again, Spags is a superior post season DC than Sutton.

I think when they hired Spags they needed him to coach the defense up well enough take advantage of a rookie contract window. Mission accomplished.
Everything has changed now that Patrick got his mega deal. Everything is harder.
But I think there’s things everyone can agree on:
-The LB duo of Gay/Bolton is as good as we’ve seen from the team in a long time
-The secondary minus maybe Thornhill looks significantly better than last year and Spags is good at finding quality cheap corners.
-Karlaftis is flashing but is only 21. Looks like a solid player at worst moving forward.
If we can get the pass rush buffed up from the DL next year I think that changes the entire defense
