2025 is shaping up to be San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan's masterclass, and it's not particularly close when comparing his other years since taking over duties back in 2017.
It's not necessarily because Shanahan has engineered the most high-powered offense or most star-studded roster that demolishes opponents.
No, it's merely because Shanahan has somehow figured out how to get the most out of almost the very least, thanks to the horrendous injury attrition his team has suffered since the outset of the season, highlighted again by the brutal loss of All-Pro linebacker Fred Warner to a broken ankle.
