Summary

As the 49ers enter the second week of their offseason with three coordinator vacancies, Matt Maiocco and Jennifer Lee Chan discuss where San Francisco stands in the hiring process for its open positions. Former 49ers defensive coordinator Robert Saleh remains a primary target, but his head-coaching aspirations might be too strong with so many openings around the NFL. Matt and Jennifer analyze those head-coaching destinations and how a candidate might fit in those organizations. Lastly, Matt and Jennifer discuss Super Wild Card Weekend and make some interesting connections between the 49ers and kickers in the playoffs.
