Doubt that u would be 1-3, cause yall were a playoff team with Mooch so 1-3 is more of a Erickson type record!! But just give it a few more games and yall will be turning on Erickson just like u did Mooch!! GOT EM!!!

You guys should of made Jim Mora your coach. I dont like Erickson....seems like he was so happy when you guys would settle for field goals rather then getting touchdowns.(Browns Game).....who knows, maybe he will improve....shit he needs to improve, because he is one of the reasons why yall are losing.

now that you mention tha contractz you got me thinking.... if T.O. decidez to leave, maybe they could use that extra money to sign some playerz on D who will actually show up to play. man i heard T.O said he didnt bother to catch that deep ball towardz tha end of tha game bcuz it wuz too late and wouldnt have helped. WTF!? catch it anyway! he'z starting to remind me of Moss now, he only playz when he feelz like it.
I agree with this. Owens has been my favorite football player for a while now, and I love how he's cocky sometimes when he makes a good play, but he's fucking with the success of the team now. When he started yelling at the offensive coordinator, I thought that was one of the saddest things I have seen in football. Someone needs to grow some balls and tell Owens "If your open we will throw it to you every time, but when you have someone half your size covering you like your nothing, then letting the ball go with no effort, you are not going to see the ball, EVER". If Owens leaves next year, it will be the decision of the organization more then Owens himself. In this case, I agree that we need to spend some serious money on defense. I think, maybe even all of it, then draft some new offensive players. Owens will probably end up on some shitty ass team making a shitload of money. I don't really like him as much as I used to. I hope he can turn it around, but if not, I really won't be that sad to see him leave.

Its the coaches job to have his team prepared, disciplined, and physically and mentally ready for whatever situation arises....Im not sayin its all the coaches fault but it has a lot to do with them....In this case, the 49ers have a lot of talent, but are playing like crap....Last year under mooch, they had basically the same team, and went to the playoffs....this year under erickson, they look undisiplined and unprepared....
Erickson ain't just sittin around.
I'm sure the coaches are doing their jobs by pushing the players.
(That's what coaches are supposed to do)
But it's a 50-50 trade off, the coaches can only do so much.

This goes to show that a lot of people are basing their beliefs on what they see on paper. Sure the 9ers were a playoff team last year and it's the same team this year.
But I just don't see where you guys get the assumption that it's the coaches fault.
We have a few key injuries here and there that killed us during the playoffs last year. Sure we had a good season but lost a few players due to injuries when it mattered the most.
We had some injuries to the offensive line and secondary. Injuries that are still there early on this season.
That's what you people are missing.
Regardless of these injuries the 9ers lost a couple of key games that they should've won with the exception of the Vikings game.
If Maricoochie was still here, we would've probably lost big time in the close games....

One thing people are missing is the fact that Owens exploded right after the stupid 4th down and short call in which the 9ers decided to run with only one back (Barlow) in the back field.
I think Owens was questionning (arguing) the play call and not so much his desire to have the ball thrown into his direction.
As for Owen's future, I truly do feel that he's playin for his contract. He did offer to stay if he was paid a $25,000,000 signing bonus. So he does want to stay, but it seems Donahue has been reluctant to re-sign Owens just yet.
It can be for 2 reasons,
1) The 9ers just don't have that kind of many
or
2) The 9ers are evaluating the situation (that's what I believe).

I think we can do without Owens just as long as we keep Streets.
But Tai has already made it very clear that he wants to leave at the end of the season. Not because he doesn't like the team, but because he wants to be closer to his home town.
We can keep him if we give him a little extra to move his family out here. But we're gonna be in trouble if we lose him and Owens at the same time....

NINER NEWS! ERICKSON TALKS TO OWENS

Erickson will not tolerate any more of Owens' temper tantrums

Cam Inman , CONTRA COSTA TIMES

SANTA CLARA - Wide receiver Terrell Owens' sideline tantrums and critical postgame comments to the media "will not be tolerated any longer," 49ers coach Dennis Erickson said Monday.


That's the clear-cut message Erickson said he delivered to Owens in a private meeting Monday, a day after Owens' controversial acts during and after Sunday's 35-7 loss to the host Minnesota Vikings.

ADVERTISEMENT



"We talked and he understands where I am coming from," Erickson said. "Obviously I didn't like what happened. ... What happened with (offensive coordinator Greg) Knapp is something I don't care for."


Owens confronted Knapp on the 49ers bench late in the third quarter Sunday, after the 49ers failed to convert on a fourth-and-one run by Kevan Barlow. Owens threw his helmet at the bench, stomped over to where Knapp was sitting, flailed his arms and screamed for several seconds at Knapp -- a scene that television cameras caught and replayed during the game.


Erickson would not reveal whether he or the team disciplined Owens, who was unavailable for comment. A team official requesting anonymity said Owens will not face a one-game suspension, as he did in 2000 after his controversial touchdown celebrations in Dallas.


Owens' agent, David Joseph, said he wasn't aware of any possible fine. "They haven't called me as such, but that's nothing new," Joseph said. "They've stopped calling me."


Joseph, whose attempts to land Owens a contract extension were rebuffed by the 49ers before training camp, said he called general manager Terry Donahue on Monday and encouraged a meeting between Owens and Erickson to discuss Owens' concerns.


"Right now the focus and function of everybody in the organization is to concentrate on getting the team better and to not get sidetracked and distracted by these other events," Donahue said.


Erickson said he also met Monday with secondary coach Brett Maxie, who had a sideline blowup directed at cornerback Mike Rumph after a Vikings touchdown catch.


"He knows he made a mistake and that it won't happen again," Erickson said of Maxie.


As for whether his similar message got across to Owens, Erickson admitted that "we'll see as time goes on."


Owens has voiced criticism after each of the team's past three losses, starting with an "I'm not griping, but ... " session when the 49ers lost at St. Louis on Sept. 14. He criticized the 49ers' patchwork offensive line and Knapp's play-calling after a Sept. 21 loss to the Cleveland Browns. He followed with another rant-filled press conference Sunday.


Not only did he claim that the 49ers "have no heart," but Owens didn't endorse struggling quarterback Jeff Garcia. Asked if Garcia should be demoted in favor of unproven backup Tim Rattay, Owens said: "Who knows? ... It's not my position to say we need a quarterback change, but Rat did a good job when he was in there."


Erickson squashed any possible quarterback controversy, stating Monday: "Jeff is our quarterback, and I plan on him playing well. He's played in the Pro Bowl and he's played well most of the year."


Garcia refused to directly respond to Owens' comments. Although the quarterbacks and receivers reviewed game film together for the third straight week to help their communication process, Garcia said he and Owens didn't speak to each other Monday.


"I don't care if they talk to each other," Erickson said, "as long as they're on the same page when they throw it and catch it."


Said Garcia: "Either we're all in this together or some changes have to be made. ... We win as a team and lose as a team. There's not any one individual that is above the team."


Garcia said the 49ers (1-3) have "more than enough heart." But he added that they hit "rock bottom" against the Vikings and are in a "do-or-die situation" going into Sunday's game against the Steve Mariucci-coached Detroit Lions.


Erickson said he wasn't too aware of the Mariucci-Owens saga that played out the previous few years. But Erickson has dealt with outspoken wide receivers before in his career, such as Joey Galloway with the Seattle Seahawks and Lamar Thomas at the University of Miami.


"Every coach has been through it one time or another," said tight ends coach Gregg Smith, who's been an assistant under Erickson since 1982. "It's just the nature of the profession."


Erickson said he's getting more involved in the play calling and that he, not Knapp, called for the Barlow run on the fourth-and-one play that incited Owens' outburst. Owens said Sunday that Garcia should have audibled and thrown to him because Owens was in single coverage. Erickson said he wouldn't allow Garcia to audible "in that situation at all, not in that stadium."


NOTES: Garcia said his strained left groin hampered him in Sunday's game but that his back has recovered from a July 14 injury. ... Left tackle Derrick Deese (right ankle) is slated to practice Wednesday and play Sunday for the first time since the season opener, Erickson said. ... Defensive tackle Josh Shaw returned from his four-game drug suspension and from what he called "an eye opening" stay at a Fort Lauderdale rehabilitation center. Donahue said the 49ers have a week to decide whether to keep Shaw on the roster. ... Jimmy Williams, the No. 4 cornerback Sunday, could be promoted, Erickson said.

He did offer to stay if he was paid a $25,000,000 signing bonus. So he does want to stay, but it seems Donahue has been reluctant to re-sign Owens just yet.
$25,000,000?

lol...that means he doesn't want to stay.

He knows damn well the Niners aren't going to pay him that much money.
