    That said, I don't think Singletary is a bad team leader or a horrible coach. But you need to cover all aspects of the game, and if you can't, you have to surround yourself with a coordinating staff that can. Underperforming teams can almost always be picked apart, and many of the problems will no doubt stem right from the top.

The game starts and what do you know? It's Frank Gore up the middle for 2 yards for two straight plays. Then it's third and 7-8+ so teams just drop in coverage blanket Crabtree and Vernon. There is no use blaming Singletary for this. I believe they both need to go but it will only set the Niners back again. Christ they are turning into the Lions/Browns. It's gonna be another long 5-6 years.

      Ding ding ding. Hate to quote myself but bye bye Raye you old fvck.

        This is classic. People praising him and saying he is the best for calling out Davis last year, loving his attitude and then the team losing just a few games turns people so quick. Your problem is behind center... NOT on the sideline.

          He was very good at beating the Rams. He is 13-15 lifetime in the NFL, 4 wins against the Rams, 1 win against Detroit last year. Realistically, his record is 8-15 versus teams who have won more than 8 games in the last 2 years. The only thing that saved him were his close calls against good teams, and his ability to beat Arizona twice. There could be a case made that he is the worst coach in the worst division in football, depending on how much USC kool aid you are drinking. He is certainly the least accomplished.

          The rams coach coordinated the defense that won a super bowl. The Arizona coach went to a super bowl. Carroll was head of a very good college program. Singletary almost beat Minnesota last year.

            I believe we will see John Gruden coaching the San Francisco 49ers next year.

                Here it is. A smash mouth system needs, a QB capable of that type of system. Alex Smith is a Spread QB. Square peg. Round hole.

                    I don't like him. He acts like a dork in his interviews. I bet his players laugh at him behind his back. You can't motivate like that.

                      TBH, there's really not a whole lot of talent in SF. There's also no QB and really hasn't been one for a long long time. Alex Smith plays decent on Monday Night and we hear how we're 'watching him grow up'... So now the 9rs have a QB? I'm confused. It's hard to be impressed with a guy that turns the ball over in big spots with an errant pass that's gets tipped and picked.
                      If the 9rs had a better than 'serviceable' QB, Singletary's job wouldn't even be in question.
                      Also, the 9rs talent level isn't all that great. Where they are good on D, they are very good - where they are bad on D...They flat out stink. Offensively they have a lot of youth and a bruiser back. Their identity is to run the football, but they lack depth at the RB position.

                      Blaming Singletary for all that ails the 9rs is just dumb, imo. With all the players moving in/out of that team and their lack of depth anywhere and no QB to speak of, I think Singletary's done a good job of bringing them together to play well at times. It's just, they're lacking in the leadership/character department. Remember, the 9rs top player, Patrick Willis is still REAL young. I think their high expectations for this season are off base... It's still a team that needs to develop. I, also, thought they would've taken a step forward this year. It's still early in the season. I also think it's too early to call Singletary inept. I don't think any coach out there could've gotten more than he has out of this team. You'd have to call out the character and leadership of the players on this team right now as the real problem. I think the 9rs have better days ahead this year, but they really really need to find a QB next year.

                          And that's only if he changes his style. He treats players like 2 year olds. There's a reason why the story about him showing his ass at half time got out - the players think he's funny and don't take him as seriously as they should. Ever hear him talk to the players? Like they are school children. I am not in the locker room, but it appears as though he's not on the same page with the players. Looks like he may have lost the team.

                          Front office of SF needs to analyze this and make a move. Get him out.
                          I stopped reading right there. Next time put that in the start of your rant.

                                Singletary was a great player, but not a good coach. Coming from a 49er fan it is clear that he is a an extraordinary MOTIVATOR. That is what he is. He is not an X's and O's type guy.

                                Singletary's limited success was the result of excellent drafting and acquisitions done by Mike Nolan in which now Singletary has pissed away. If you've been following the 49ers you would know Mike Nolan put together one hell of a defense and then Singletary came in. The defense is what kept the niners in the game last year and now the defense has went to shit.

                                After Singletary gets fired.. he will not get a head coaching job again.. book it. No owner will believe this guys words with all that added emphasis bullshit. Con artist with a cross.

                                Don't get me wrong.. Mike Nolan was garbage and I was thrilled to see Singletary come in. But the flavor of his kool aid is now sour and he fukked up big time by firing Mike Martz.

                                  Mike Singletary is both a good coach and an energising individual.

                                    49ers sinking fast: The San Francisco 49ers have replaced the Cowboys and the Minnesota Vikings as the league's most disappointing team. Picked as the favorite to win the NFC West, the 49ers lost to the Chiefs 31-10, and as bad as they are playing on the road, you'd have to think they could be 0-4 after next Sunday's game in Atlanta.



                                    The 49ers' defense, which was supposed to be the team's strength under Mike Singletary, allowed 207 yards rushing and 250 yards passing to Kansas City. 49ers quarterback Alex Smith was once again average, completing only 23-of-42 for 232 yards. Clearly, defenses can play to force Smith to go to the checkdown receivers and not downfield. Consequently, running back Frank Gore caught nine passes for 102 yards, while wide receivers Michael Crabtree and Josh Morgan, and tight end Vernon Davis combined for only seven catches for 71 yards.


                                    "I would not say outcoached," Singletary said in his postgame news conference when asked if he was outcoached by the Chiefs' Todd Haley. "I think that is something that you could always say, but I think in a loss like this, a lot of things look wrong."

                                          He is not going to win another game with this big ass cross. He looks so pathetic, unbelievable. What kills me is that he calls all the players "SON"! Like he is a god.

                                          P.S. Next game will be his last! How you doing, son!

                                              If SF goes 0-6, Singletary needs to be fired. Period.

                                                  He needs to put Carr in there, Smith keeps getting chances for some reason

                                                    The same kind of people that defend Singeltary defend guys like Jason Campbell.

                                                    It's the lines fault
                                                    It's the receivers fault
                                                    It's the coordinators fault
                                                    It's the changing of the coaches too many times fault
                                                    Bad luck
                                                    He's still young, give him some time
                                                    Injuries
                                                    Blah blah blah blah

                                                    You could point the finger all you want just because you LIKE THE GUY, but learn how to differentiate your LIKING A GUY, and knowing that a guy is below average. Mike Singeltary is a horrible head coach and won't get a job again, Rooney rule favoritism or not. He sucks.

                                                      he's a hell of a motivator but, I think his attempts to motivate reached a ceiling already and looks like he has lost his touch to earn players respect to see his ideology. he also smells rats..

                                                        He would be much better as a college coach. That is where he is headed next year.

                                                          I think many good coaches would have trouble winning with that group he has. That being said, he isn't helping the situation much.

                                                            His group are definitely better than 1-4
                                                            So I would say the coach stinks, get rid of that stinking shit

                                                              this win just bought him a job for a couple more weeks. he will get fired before the season is done.
