This was hardly a Baalke decision. To me this screams Jed York, he's been the guy reportedly pumping up Tomsula in the front offices because Jim Nobody from Nowhere is such a nice guy.



For those unfamiliar with new #49ers coach Jim Tomsula, he's the kind of guy you can stop on a street and talk to for 20 minutes. Personable

This Fall I spoke w Trent Baalke. If Jim leaves who is the best guy on the staff for the job. His eyes lit up & said Jim Tomsula. Love it
The few games I watched, Tarver wasn't a terrible DC. He did what he could with a bunch of aging vets on their last legs and inexperienced rookies. He'd have them playing pretty well up until the end when they just didn't have the ability to keep going.

I won't complain if trestman is OC.

I'm not gonna say I'm happy with the tomsula hiring. I wouldn't be happy if fangio was coach but I would fully understand it. This though, makes absolutely no sense.
My raider friend said Tarver is a good dc.
oakland wants trestman too

I'm trying to keep an open mind but this is pretty disappointing, moreso because it feels like their entire coaching search was just one long charade.

I'm having a hard time Phoenix
Arians > Tomsula
Carroll > Tomsula
Fisher > Tomsula

Its all about the quarterback. We have a supremely talented QB who regressed considerably and is running in a number of directions trying to get coached up. Then we fire a very successful coach and the owner implies that the team was not getting "coached up" enough by the current head coach / staff.

Then we waste a lot of time interviewing approximately 3,459 potential candidates. Then we rush out to Denver panicked trying to bring in the hot OC candidate du jour. And out of nowhere - they decide to hire the inhouse guy. And not the inhouse guy who was in charge of the defense. But the guy behind the guy, behind the guy, behind the guy who no one even knew interviewed for the job.

I just want someone to coach up Kap. I can't watch the abortive offense anymore. The consistent delay of game calls, the issue with red zone playcalling, the garbage that we've been for years on offense.

So that's why people are upset. The team fired the successful football coach and promoted the internal lovable character actor.

This. We are nearing a crossroads with our QB. He is at a critical stage in his career. He'll be 28 years old, the time to take the next step is NOW. The HC hire should have been the man best suited to tutor our QB.
They can still do that, we still dont know who our other coaches will be.

True, but now we're completely dependent on the off-chance the right OC becomes available and wants to coach under Tomsula. What offensive coaches is he connected with? Does he have connections throughout the league? The Ravens got lucky with Gary Kubiak this season, that hardly happens.

We had a chance to be pro-active and pick our own offensive guy for the HC position, and we blew it imo.

This. Tomsula has been with only the 49ers his entire time in the NFL. Not sure what sort of connections he actually even has. I'm almost expecting a parade of assistants from the Nolan and Singletary days to come stumbling back in.


"Hey Colin, meet your new quarterbacks coach, Jim Hostler."

You are correct about that, but Jed won't fire himself. Baalke would be the fall guy. This is a huge mistake IMO.

Exactly what they wanted in front of the cameras
