I'm speechless. I actually feel bad for the San Fran fans (the true fans).

Well, you can send all 3 of them a GET WELL SOON card, Cpayne!

Good riddance, glad he's off the East Coast so we can watch him fail miserably on a National stage.

From Dennis Erickson to Mike Nolan????? Is this supposed to be an improvement?

I guess they gotta have SOMEBODY...:P

This is sad, back to back coaches that don't deserve to be head coaches.

I must admit Im shocked they hired a defensive mind.

Isnt Mike Nolan the guy who's always talking smack about the Skins??


Heres too 49ers @ Redskins opening the season next year!

And to think we have it bad as Redskins fans. The 49ers are by far the worst off team in the NFL. Seriously, they just have no hope whatsoever. Even I think Dolphins fans, Browns fans, have reason for optomsim next year (#2/#3 picks in draft this year, meaning second and worst teams.) But the 49ers are screwed for a very long time.

What happened to all this talk of the 49ers making a big splash with their next head coach?

I think they rushed into this decision

I guess they think they're basically getting the next Jim Mora Jr. when of course they could have gotten JM Jr. himself had he not gone to Atlanta

Maybe they couldn't get a bigger or better name...we did read that Williams declined to be considered for the job....maybe other coaches did the same.

Funniest part of that story (other than Nolan becoming head coach) is that Wade Phillips' has a dad named Bum Phillips. Bum? LMAO

Good luck, 49ers fans

Bum Phillips was the Oilers coach during the Earl Campbell days. You've probably seen him a few times on NFL Films roaming the sidelines with his big cowboy hat

Im shocked you think Nolan has a defensive mind? :laughing2

haha - well he concentrates on defense.. Not meaning he's some sort of Gregg Williams or anything.

Honestly, I'm just relieved they didn't take Blache. I think he may be the unsung hero of our defense.

Wow, SF sucks for another 3 years before they realize Mike Nolan is just a flaming idiot and can his sorry ass.
