Interesting. I wonder if he'd wear a shirt and tie at every game again? lol

Nolan had a big hand in building up the Ravens defense and re-building both the Niners and Broncos defenses.

I think Grimm and Garnett and posisblily B. Schottenhiemr before Nolan

I still just can't get behind Frazier...


but Nolan did have success switching the Broncos from a 4-3 to a 3-4 in one season while greatly improving Denvers D

I'm not sold against Nolan.

Re: Mike Nolan to interview?

Yeah, he's one "proven loser" i wouldn't mind. As long as he can find someone good to be his O.C.

BTW, Jay Glazer is the man with the Bills.

Other than T.O. I dont know who he's buds with, but he's connected to this franchise with a captial C

Don't forget he failed miserably in San Fran (mostly because his offense was horrid) and his Denver defense imploded down the stretch.

That being said, I'm not 100% certain anyone wouldn't have failed in San Fran there.

I am open to anyone who would be brining in a 3-4 Defense.

Re: Mike Nolan to interview?

Matter of fact, Bills fans should pound Glazer's twitter asking if Cowher to Buffalo is dead and see what he says.

That sounds very sexual and perverted, and I will have to respectfully decline

Yes but when I look at a HC candidate I look to see how he did with the unit that falls under his expertise.

Nolan made the 49ers D a very tough unit while waiting for Alex Smith and Vernon Davis to come around which didn't happen in his time there.

But then the question is, did Nolan fail to get the best out of his players where Singletary succeeded? It's probably difficult to determine that, maybe they just needed more time.

That's like saying you'd be open to Botch Davis or Romeo Crennel too.

Nolan was a failure as a HC.

It's just more of the same if we brought him in, imo.

Patriots fans said the same thing when they hired Belichick.

Exactly right. He couldn't get his players to play up to potential. Singletary hasn't gotten them to the promised land, but anybody who didn't think the time drastically improved the MINUTE Nolan got canned, wasn't paying any attention

Bills fans said the same thing when they hired Jauron.

Not saying I would be 100% opposed to Nolan, but it would not go over well.
