His time as an OL with the 49ers was short but notable. Pro Bowl/All Pro. He went on to become one of the best OL coaches of all time. "He was just an old ball coach." He influenced many young coaches to go on to have successful careers, Bruce Arians is one of those. The NFL doesn't keep stats from the time he played and that is a shame. Big and nasty comes to mind from the sketchy videos of those old 49er teams.
"Old guys rule."
