SF Niners Release Martz
Here it is.
Sadly, this was bound to happen with Singletary as our head coach; he likes to run the ball, Martz likes 30+ yard throws.
Thank you for a great year Martz! We will always be grateful for what you gave us in your 1 year!
No replacement named yet, but I can bet that we will wait to see what Denver does with Shanahan.
If we can get the OTHER Mike back, with a few off season additions - can you say 'NFC West Champions'?

Sad to see him go. But he is looking for a head coaches job and he is going to get one. We need a long term offensive coordinator, the 7th one will be the last one for a while. '09 is going to be a fun filled season.

Shanahan says Davis still owes him money from when he coached the Raiders. No way he is going back to that dump. I've read that Gilbride, Harbraugh and someone else will be interviewing with Davis apparently.

I think that was a BIG mistake.
These teams keep tossing people out the window just as guys are getting used to the systems. I'm not the hugest martz fan but he is good for the niners. The flip flopped QB's pretty much all season.
If they stick with the system and just improve key players they're gonna do fine.
Need to keep the coaches together a full season to see what they can do together.
It's like the Raiders. The players they have are half way decent but if they have to get used to new coaches and plays and systems every 4 months they'll never get comfortable. Then they get down on the team/owner etc and they give up.
oh and firing shanahan was a MASSIVE mistake.
MASSIVE MASSIVE MASSIVE
They had major injury problems at crucial positions this year. They need to make some good draft choices and strengthen some positions but I honestly think that healthy they'll probably win the division next year as SD and KC are not gonna make it back up and the Raiders are at best 7-9 next year but more likely 6-10 and they'll make some retarded moves and drafts and put themselves another 3 years behind.

Anyways, yeah, i thought the two mike's mixed well like fire and ice. The offense definitely got back on track this year. Of course, Martz's preferences aren't Singletary's but i don't want a Shoop style offense either (run run throw punt). HOpefully the next OC will have an emphasis on our strength (Gore) but be sure to mix it up. We can definitely use some of the things Martz showed during his tenure here (4WR 1 back set, i.e. more emphasis on using the pass as a weapon)...the 9ers were definitely a little too predictable teh past few years without Turner or Martz as OC...
you know it's been bad the past few years when I can tell you what they're going to run simply from the formation and I even knew which side of the line they were going to run...but it didn't work this year with Martz as OC. (damn all those years playing Madden!)

I could go on and on about the Broncos, but IF the 9ers were able to land him as an OC, that would be great for them, but short lived. He's a GREAT head coach...his message had just grown cold in Denver, but he'll be a great coach wherever he goes (Oakland excluded, of course...screw the Raiders
).As a die-hard Broncos fan, all I can say is my New Year's resolution is go land Cowher as our new head coach...an offense with potential and a defense with a few decent players that Cowher can re-work into a powerhouse.
