On when he first met Mike Johnson and whether his background in fundamentals was the reason for hiring him:
“First of all, I talked to several guys around the league about a quarterback coach. Mike Johnson’s name came up time and time again. There were some guys that I talked to who I have a tremendous amount of respect for. And then I remember talking to Dan Reeves about him, and Dan Reeves had a lot of really great things to say about him. Of course I was excited at that time to meet him. Our interview – the interview that I had with Mike Johnson lasted about 15 minutes – and I knew that he was the guy. He thought something that went wrong when I told him, ‘OK. I got it. That’s Enough.’ He said, ‘Wait a minute, I’m not done yet.’ I said, ‘I’ve heard enough. Let’s go.’”
On how many questions were asked in the interview:
“I can’t remember how many questions. I just know that he talked with such passion and such command about the position – he talked about the development and the progression of the quarterback position. The way he explained it, it wasn’t so much just the knowledge that he had, though he was very knowledgeable, but, it was the way he talked about the position. I just know, I knew from that moment, when you have passion for a position, and at the same time you have the knowledge of a position, something great is going to happen.”
On how Mike Johnson thinks the quarterbacks are coming along:
“Day to day it’s getting better. I think from the very first day, you come out here and you kind of sit back in a chair and go, ‘Wow. I’ve got to work on this. I’ve got to work on that. With Alex, got to work on this, got to work on that. And with Shaun, we’re just going to continue to move forward.’ So, I talked to him just about every day, ‘Where are we? What do you see? What’s happening? What do we need to work on?’ It just continues to get better. The biggest thing is the attitude of both of the guys is tremendous, so that’s a lot to work with to begin with.”

Like I have said in the past, I firmly believe that Mike Johnson has a big future with the 49ers as I think he will one day replace Jimmy Raye as OC, im thinking two years.

That would be ideal (continuity). Hope it works out like that.

I just felt like I needed to quote him too. I didn't want to be left out.
