Ken Norton is Saleh's guy. I bet he called him up the second he was fired in Oakland and promised he'd go to bat for him with the 49ers. Yorks ponied up...

#49ers DC Robert Saleh to me last year on Ken Norton's impact on him when they were #Seahawks assistants: "Ken Norton Jr. had a huge impact for me in his love for the players. And making sure the players understand that you love them. It's not coach vs. player. We're all one."

It was the "same old sorry ass Rams game"....Young got hurt the week before in Indy and we dropped to 4-2. The Rams were 5-1 and the buzz was that they were gonna get us because Elvis started. We kicked their ass, but the next 2 games were brutal at the stick as we dropped Games to the saints and the expansion Panthers.

Rams with a red goal post ? The field looks like turf and not grass. The end zone paint looks kind of orange ?

I usually can identify the stadiums, but this one doesn't look like it was against the Rams

Assistant HC is throwing me off. He's basically the LB coach right? He was seemed terrible in Oakland.

It's at Busch stadium when it had artificial turf. To be honest, I can't remember if the red on the goal post said 49ers or if it was just a left over from when it was the St. Louis Cardinals football team. Here's a clip on YouTube.


The full game was on YouTube like a month ago but it's gone now.

Very nice! This to me proves that Ken was a Saleh hire, and not somebody to replace Saleh.
