Chalk Talk: Shanahan Talks Bye Week, Second Half

Andrew Hirsh:

Kyle Shanahan: I think what we gained from the most is rest. We tried to get away for a while. When you go this long as coaches...you don't get that much sleep. It's seven days in a row for however many months it is. So it's a grind, and it wears on you. We always look at our stuff. I take it home with me when we get some days off. But the thing that helps you the most as a coach is to get away from it, relax. You come back a lot more clear.
