There is more to the story of Mike Martz and his hiring to the San Francisco 49ers. The hiring may be because of Mike Nolan using him for job security. If Martz can develop Alex Smith into a great quarterback, then Nolan wouldn't have to worry about being a bust head coach. However, if Martz does succeed, maybe when Mike Nolan's contract is over, Martz may take over as head coach.

I just heard that the 49ers reportedly fired coach Mike Nolan and replaced him with defensive coordinator Mike Singletary. So let's get right to the gut reactions.
This was a good move, a necessary move by the 49ers. They should have fired Nolan after the disastrous 2007 season. Instead, John and Denise DeBartolo York let Nolan talk them into bringing him back. They stripped...

The San Francisco 49ers have apparently come to the realization that Alex Smith needs to move on. Unfortunately for them with Smith's salary and the current salary cap rules, it doesn't make sense to do so until 2009, however, at this point most people would say that it should have been done before the 49ers drafted him.
The good news for San Francisco, however, is that...

Imagine that. A slice of perfection Sunday in a very imperfect 49ers season, thanks to No. 3 quarterback turned backup turned starter Shaun Hill.
In the first half of the 49ers' 35-16 win over the Rams at Candlestick Park, Hill posted a perfect passer rating of 158.3. He became the first quarterback in 49ers history to post a perfect first-half rating.
He completed 12 of 14...

The Chicago Bears are known for their defense. The Denver Broncos are a running team. The Indianapolis Colts are a receiving team. And the San Francisco 49ers are known for their quarterbacks.
