NFL Network's Adam Schefter reports the 49ers have decided not to retain offensive coordinator Mike Martz. And the cycle continues. I know he's not the starter anymore, but that means that the Niners have had a different offensive coordinator every year that Alex Smith has been in the league.

Yeah, they desperately need stability at the OC but, if Singletary gets off to a rough start, you don't need a guy with a Super Bowl resume sitting behind him for the fans (and possibly players) lobbying to replace him. I mean I would hope that the 49er fans and players would give him a fair chance but, in this league I doubt it happens.

Now we can be 9-7 and not 8-8! 2 games could have easily gone in the Texans favor and this year's record would've been 10-6. Now with them gone, I believe it's possible.

Maybe we can get Wade Phillips to be our DC after the Cowboys fire him Wade is great, Jones is not dumb enough to get rid of him. But back on Hou, either a Rb or Qb cause Indy and either Jac/Tenn will always be better then them year in and year out

But back on Hou, either a Rb or Qb cause Indy and either Jac/Tenn will always be better then them year in and year out I imagine you watching the 44-6 debacle and telling yourself "Wade is great". And just so you know, only one RB was able to get 100 yards rushing on the Titans....TWICE......and that was Steve Slaton. I'm surprised you're not this critical about the Cowboys. They only finished one game better than Houston.

Your personnel decisions, scouting and evaluation of talent and loose grasp on reality vaguely remind me of him. Joking aside, you can't be serious on Houston needing a RB, Wade being great, or Jerruh not being dumb. Especiall that first one, Slaton has been great for Houston.

Its an old team. And as good as Payton is, he is not going to last too much longer. And this draft Houston probally will get a new QB 2nd-3rd round. So someone like Harrell could be Houston Bound.

They only finished one game better than Houston. Dal wasn't the favorite going into Phi, I didn't expect them to win, the had tough breaks late against Pitt and Bal, they needed one of those games, but poop just happened, not that big of a deal, still a solid group of players And how is it the coaches fault for the Phi game? Did he fumble the ball? Kick it out of bounds? Tackle? Slatin is good, but not great, but if we have Schaub is the main Qb, we will need a better Rb, but if we get a better Qb, Slatin is fine. As far as Hou beating the Titans or rushing well against them, it doesn't really matter, Tenn obviously wasn't taking those games seriously, and for good reason

They had that with Greene but he was hurt too much. They have Slaton who is a good speed one, but they need a LenDale White type of RB. Someone who is bigger.
