Oh yeah, forgot Carmazzi and Druckenmiller. Worse than Dorsey/Rattay

At least Woods made some plays in the pre-season.

Very insightful...

Theres been 5 different eras of 49er football since 1979.

The Walsh Era - 1979-1988
The Seifert Era - 1989-1996
The Mariucci Era - 1997-2002
The Dark Days Era - 2003-2010
The Harbaugh Era - 2011-

If im picking an all-dark days era team im going to eliminate anyone that is still on the team. Itll be the best of the rest.

Newberry & Johnson weren't bad with Mooch, but from 2003-2006 they went from average, to almost invisible; of course you can accredit it to overall system drop-off/poor coaching/Donahue, but these guys fell apart/disappeared after Mooch got fired.

Newberry was excellent for us until his knees lost all their cartilege and he continued to attempt to play.

TDon.

End thread.

QB: JTO - for his 12 TOs per game
RB: Glenn Coffee - for quitting the team after a season
WR: Ashlee Lilie, DJax - for dropping every pass thrown his way, Rashaun Woods
OT: Kwame Harris, (I originally put Jonas Jennings here, but while writing the rest of the list he got injured, and had to be placed on IR. He won't be able to make it onto the team)
OG: Rachal, Snyder
DL: Kentwan Balmer
LB: Manny Lawson - for having as many sacks in 6 years as Aldon Smith got this year
S: Mark Roman - for defying all odds and not picking off one pass in 20 years
CB: Mike Rumph

Coach: Dennis Erickson
OC: Jimmy Reye
DC: Bill Davis

lol Jonas Jennings had the look of a big, mean, dominant T, but played like a weenie.

Qb J.T.O'Sullivan
WR Gilmore
WR Ziegler
Rb Barlow

OC Jim Hostler
DT Kentwan Balmer
Cb Mike Rumph

I wonder if Coffee regrets leaving now.

Mike Singletary has got to be the coach of this team.

man, the dark years.

I remember having a conversation about how Rattay actually threw a nice deep ball. lol

So many of these players were defended by most people. Things I remember hearing or saying myself.
Tim Rattay: Good deep ball to go with TO.
Barlow: Such a beast and will be all pro as full time starter.
Ken Dorsey: Winner at the U, has the "IT" factor.
Cody Pickett: Rifle arm who was great at UW.
Rashaun Woods: Automatic #1 WR for us, rookie of the year.
Keith Lewis; Total steal, he's a ballhawk.
Kwame Harris: Bigger, younger, and stronger than Deese.

And many more.

Just the quarterbacks of that era were an all-star team of epic fail. Tim Rattay, Ken Dorsey, Cody Picket, Alex Smith, Chris Weinke, David Carr, Troy Smith, Shaun Hill, JT O'Sullivan, Trent Dilfer.

Not to mention the winners on the offensive line: Kwame Harris, Anthony Clement, Jonas Jennings, Brock Gutierrez, Tony Wragge, Chilo Rachal.

I am amazed how we won any games with that level of talent and brain dead coaching those 8 years.
