The difference is that in 2005 they went through an insane spate of injuries, they were missing guys all over the place, they started so many different guys on defense that year that they set a new NFL record for different starters.
I'm not saying your wrong. I hope Mangini can come in and not miss a beat, but to act like what Fangio did was only due to the players is a bit misguided.

Ok, that's good to know. And I guess he didn't have much talent to work with when in CLE or with the NYJ
Fangio has one stint of success before the niners with the NO D that had fantastic LBs. They went 12-2 and made the playoffs in 1987 where they gave up 44 points to Minnesota in a loss. They did have the best D in the NFL in 1991 but were one and done in the playoffs. But he's done quite well with the niners and all their talent. So to assume Mangini can't seems presumptive.
As mentioned before, he is a savant on defenses but does not have people skills...Tomsula will have to help him out. Maybe they can keep in a booth and let him communicate by phone.

I feel he'll be allot more aggressive.
We'll see.

not having our two best players was damanging
the 49ers started 4-2 (just like they did in 2013)
after Willis was out 4-6
Still being a top 5 D with 2nd 3rd and sometimes 4th string players, the coaching staff needs some respect for that.

Ex-49ers LB coach Jim Leavitt will be Colorado's new defensive coordinator, reports @FootballScoop.

Yeah, sounds like Jon Gruden.

We have little idea how much talent will be on the roster in 2015. Losing Crabtree, Iupati, Gore, Vernon, Brooks, Justin could be a huge blow. Add in the question marks surrounding Willis and Bow. Aldon could easily be gone too. Should be an interesting offseason.

Good point. I hope we have a lot of talent left, however, my fear is that the window of opportunity closed on some great veterans while Harbaugh was "imposing his will."
There is a thin edge when a team has some very good young players still on their inexpensive rookie contracts to balance the contracts of star players eating up a lot of cap. Right now we have a lot of good players coming up for new contracts with few established young players to offset their loss if the FO can't resign them.
