I love the Jim Harbaugh hire but his defensive staff is growing into a group of failures.

Before we've played one game.

Looking at the history and reading about both of these guys, yes before we have played a game. We let a defensive cord go that kept our team in the top half of the league with the worst offense ever on a 49ers roster. We hired Fangio who has ruined 3 defenses in the NFL, all of them being in the bottom 5 before getting fired all three times. Jim Leavitt is not as bad, his only real downside is he punched a player.. I can understand emotion getting the best of a two men and fist flying. I just used this chance to vent about Fangio, who will ruin our defense and have us in the bottom of the league 2 yeras from now.
im not too excited about the fangio hire but i like this one

Manusky wasn't anything special. the only reason our D was ranked in the top 15 was because we are good against the run. The reason that we are good against the run is because of the front 7, guys like Willis, Spikes, Lawson, Smith, Franklin, and Soap.

Totally disagree.

We are going to have so much fun discussing this next season, Chief.

If there is a season.

Trust me, if I am wrong about Fangio I will gladly admit it in great joy.
Nobody knows about assistant coaches except the players.

Intense, at the pro level....? Makes me wonder. It is far more important to be good at teaching technique and all that than to be intense. I have found it to be almost 100% true that yelling and screaming coaches are that way because they have nothing else to offer. We will see.

I wanted to keep manusky as well, but I'm not going to call Fangio a failure before we played any games.

One good argument against Fangio's track record is the guy was DC for two expansion franchises. Those teams were building from scratch.

Ed Donatell looks very impressive
Would you rather have Jim Leavitt or Mike Sing as the LB Coach?

exactly, how can you expect top 5 defenses with expansion teams and crappy players

another solid hire by Harbaugh.

So what positions are left?

QB coach, TE coach, Passrushing coach,

"pass-rush specialist" and "Inside LB coach" were positions Singletary made up so he could hire his friend and nephew to the staff. they were just un-needed guys taking money from the payroll.

Im kind of disappointed to see Jason Tarver go after being on the coaching staff for 10 years now. our LB have always been good.
