Watch for Tomsula to possibly become D-Line Coach, promote Pleasant to secondary coach and hire Jeff Fitzgerald Outside linebackers coach. May even add an additional coach for safeties.

I hope they could add Pettine as a positional coach in some capacity.

As far as I know, Pleasant has already left.

Redskins blocked him, I believe still under contract.

I like the move and have no issues with it. To me it's a win - win all the way around. That does not mean i would not have liked Wade or Pettine, but at the end it's a good move.

I only hope the fan base will get behind the move and give him a chance. I do not want to see post in November bitching about the move.

Nothing like a 27 year old article about your coach when he was a player to clear up any misconceptions.

Nothing like being negative without knowing what your future DC will do. I've seen 4 years of his work and is as good as the other candidates. How about giving him a chance instead of whining about it?

Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it. Man's been fired from 3 defenses. How does he get fired from SF if his defenses are so great? Is there anybody who has worked on the west coach as a coach or a player that you don't like?

For the second time, we had an opportunity to hire a guy that could elevate a good defense to great. Or an average defense to good. That's the difference a good coach makes. Instead, for the second time, we hire a guy who's been fired for running crappy defenses. What's to get excited about?

Ha!

If McCloughan gives him a talent upgrade as expected, and we come out with a mediocre to poor defense, I'll be calling for Gruden's head after two games.

This move reeks of limited comfort zone.
