Mike Nolan accepts 49ers head coach job

Actually, Ray Rhodes was our defensive coordinator during the "twilight" of Norv Turner's coaching career.

Nolan was also the Def Coord for the Giants when Parcells was there. Was he the DC for one of the Super Bowl versions of the Giants?

I thought Nolan was here in DC from 97-99...

Actually you are quite wrong. Ray Rhodes lasted a year then went to the Broncos. He was hired the last year of Turners tenure and replaced Mike Nolan. Before that the twighlight guy was Ron Lynn. Now that was a true swiss cheese defense.

Hhhmmm...that's weird....I swear Ron Lynn had replaced Mike Nolan (because Nolan was brought in with Norv Turner), then it went Ray Rhodes(Skins' only playoff year), Schottenheimer(Marty's relative), Lewis, Edwards, then of course Williams.

Either way, I wasn't too far off in saying that Rhodes had came in toward the end of Norv Turner's coaching career with the Redskins because he had coached the defense in '99....the Redskins' only playoff year since Gibbs' first tenure.

My fault, long day and twighlight for me for some reason meant the peak of Norv Turner. To much work today I guess. But the order of succession was Torgy Torgenson ~ Urich ~ Pettibon ~ Pecatillo ~ Lynn ~ Nolan ~ Rhodes ~ Kurt Schotinemer ~ Lewis ~Edwards ~ Williams
