[The difference between Jim Harbaugh and Chan Gailey]

To be fair to Gailey, this is not quite an apples to apples comparison. Harbaugh inherited a very good team in terms of talent. San Fran already had a good defense and a solid running game. When Gailey came on board, what did we have?

 

Sorry but this is complete BS. Just because you have talent doesn't mean any coach can just waltz in and dominate the field. Coaching isn't just X's and O's but it's 90% people skills. Just because you have great talent doesn't always equal success. All the greatest coaches now and in NFL history not only knew their X's and O's but they knew how to control their players. Harbaugh knew how to do it whereas Singletary didn't. Chan may be good with his X's and O's but he has NO PEOPLE skills what so ever and doesn't have control of his team. No discipline. None. He says this team lacks mental toughness, because our coach lacks mental toughness.

 

I think the Packers are a great example of this and why I think McCarthy is one of the best coaches in the league. I honestly don't think they have great talent on their team. Jennings, Rodgers, Clay Matthews and a few others on defense. I think Nelson is overrated, they have no running game and their defense is average, but McCarthy's able to take this team beyond their capabilities and makes that team a winner every year.

 

True story.

[Refs Love Brady...just an observation]

How about his knee clearly down before getting into the endzone? Nah, just give it to him.

 

Their RBs were averaging like 6 yds per carry. You think we would've stopped them from inside the 1 yd line? I wasn't even mad about that call.

 

True Story

[The Tarvaris Jackson Trade - huh?]

Dude threw for over 3000 yards last year, we needed someone that is an actual QB (not Brad) for that spot. $1.75M is reasonable, and 7th round picks are a joke. Would you rather Ralph just keep the money to add to the stack he'll never spend?

 

Shannon Sharpe, Tom Nalen, Donald Driver, Marques Colston, Gary Anderson, Stevie Johnson, Justin Rogers, Julian Edelman, Rashad Jennings, Peyton Hillis, Ahmad Bradshaw, Cortland Finnegan, Dave Tollefson, Jay Ratliff, Tully Banta Cain, Brett Keisel, Rock Cartwright, TJ Houshmanzadeh, Jay Riemersma, Adam Timmerman, Jamal Anderson, Michael McCrary, Kurt Schulz, Leon Lett, Dave Szott, Marion Butts, and a guy named Bo Jackson were all 7th round draft picks. There are lots of diamonds in the rough that can be found so I wouldn't say they're a complete joke.
