All this.
Yes, Jed has become really cheap...with all the costs of the new bust of stadium and listening to his newly appointed penny pinching president Parag Maraathe...we will no doubt suck fo years to come.
Where's your link that says Willis retired because JH was gone?
I can play that game, too. All I am saying is that there's nothing to suggest Willis' world was based in Harbaugh being his coach.
I mean, you guys can believe whatever crap false narratives you wanna believe. Doesn't make it any more true. But go ahead and do so if it makes you feel smart or something.
I mean, wink wink, nudge nudge, Jim Tomsula raped kids and small dogs. I know it's true because I can read between the lines. I mean, no one has SAID he's done that stuff, but I know it, you know it, it's just obviously true.
Right?
Willis was only half the player last season that he had been in the past. To suggest he retired because Harbaugh left is not only irresponsible, it shows a lack of recognition of the impact his foot injuries had had on his ability to play the game.
Yes, my first choice for HC was Adam Gase, but he wasn't coming here. Blame whoever you want but that deal is done. Jim Tomsula is the head coach and we are all bitterly disappointed with the results of the past two weeks, but let's try too look a bit deeper at why this team is losing.
Tomsula did not let Mike Iupati walk. That was the result of HarBaalke deciding that Colin Kaepernick, a 2nd level college QB, was the future and that left no money for Iupati. Tomsula did not force Anthony Davis to take a year off. Injuries did that. Also, Tomsula did not cause Daniel Kilgore's recovery to more time than expected. Put those three pieces back in the OL and we have a very different situation. Instead we have a makeshift OL made up of two castoffs and a near rookie trying to block against two of the best defenses in the league. Not Jim Tomsula's fault.
Also, Jim Tomsula did not stomp on Patrick Willis' feet and force him to retire. Nor did he send Aldon Smith out on another drinking binge, nor did he tear some pages off Justin Smith's calendar. He didn't even smack Chris Borland upside the head causing a concussion. Other useful restoration projects like Chris Culliver and Perish Cox were told to look elsewhere. Jim Tomsula did not do any of that.
Jim Tomsula did not do any of those things that have individually and collectively decimated this football team. Jim Harbaugh used up the inventory of quality players on this team trying to win a championship with his college offense. He failed and acted like a 7th grader in the process, wearing out his welcome as he had done in prior stopovers. Now, due to injuries and retirement, the inventory has been depleted to the point the team is looking woeful.
None of this is the fault of the current head coach. The truth is, there is not much Tomsula, or any other HC that one might think of, can do to change the lack of quality talent on this team. All that is the result of what I noted above. All of it.
Now add in the fact that Pittsburgh (with a healthy Ben) is one of the top two teams in the AFC and Arizona will compete with Green Bay for top dog in the NFC. Our favorite team, with all this depletion of talent, has played, and been thumped by two of the very best teams in the league and some folks are blaming the head coach. Not realistic. Not realistic at all.
