Yeah, according to some, LaFleur's first post game press conference sounded like he was blaming the offense for the defenses failures.

I think he was just trying to keep the media attack dogs off, and keep a locker room together... and not saying how he truly feels. As of that's how he truly feels, we might have to fire LaFleur to get rid of Barry.

I think Barry needs to be fired just from the standpoint of media and trying something new at this point.

But I'm extremely interested in what direction LaFleur would go, is he sticking with the Vic Fangio defensive scheme? Or changing it up?

You put a stout defense around that, you have Super Bowl contender.
