And his wife. And they'd laugh. The injuries piled up. All-Pros and role players alike landed on injured reserve. The quarterback missed time with turf toe. And the 49ers kept on winning.

Kyle Shanahan and John Lynch, so naturally by now, sat side by side Wednesday, reviewing the 49ers' ultra-challenging season and peering ahead to their 10th year as a power couple.

Shanahan is a finalist for his first AP NFL Coach of the Year Award, the NFL announced Thursday morning.

The decision to part ways with Stefanski comes two seasons after he won his second NFL Coach of the Year award and less than two years after he received a contract extension. From 2020 to 2023, Stefanski led the Browns to two playoff appearances and the highest winning percentage (.552) for the team over a four-year stretch since 1986-89. But Cleveland has struggled over the last two seasons with a combined record of 8-26.
