Not a whole lot happening this offseason. Most of the reports being heard have to do with everyones fascination with the “Ted” position. Aside from that here is the latest from Monday Morning Punter.
June 16th, 2008 | MMP | 8 comments | ContinuedArchive for MMP
Monday Morning Punter is named after perhaps the greatest punter of our time. Andy 'The General' Lee. We'd like to thank Andy on his recent Pro Bowl selection and we know deep down inside he made it just for us.
MMP: The Day After
The 2008 NFL Draft is officially behind us and the 49ers drafted defensive line, offensive line, wide receiver and secondary. The consensus on the draft is that the picks were safe, and most of the grades are around the C+ range.

MMP: Holmgren Parcells-like in San Fran
We all know that head coach Mike Nolan is on a short leash. It’s almost a given that if he doesn’t succeed this season he’ll be fired. Well rumors are already flying that if Nolan is let go Holmgren may want to head back to San Francisco, but not as head coach. This go around [...]

MMP: Former OC’s > Nolan
Incase you missed it, two former offensive coordinators under Mike Nolan are now coaching their teams in the AFC and NFC Championship game. And yet the 49ers haven’t made the playoffs in five years.

MMP: Two Want Nolan Gone
The San Francisco Chronicle has an article where two defensive starters say that Nolan shouldn’t be back. They have issues with Nolan in regards to schemes, clock management, favortism and more.
Crumpacker hands out game grades. (Andy Lee is God)
Help us Shaun Hill you our only hope. (Thanks R2)
2008 Hill vs Smith. (Maybe)
Don’t mess with McCloughan (Here that [...]
MMP: Holmgren as GM?
Fox Sports is reporting that rumors persist that Mike Holmgren may have interest in becoming the 49ers general manager, should the team hire one.
BY to let 49er fans know if he plans to retire after the season. (Noooooooooo)
Nolan wins, Nolan loses. (Another great 4th down call Mike)
Gore 81 shy of 1000.
Nolan best when it matters [...]
MMP: Willis > Peterson
The day when the soon to be offensive and defensive rookies of the year matched up, the first round goes to Patrick Willis. Willis finished the day with eight tackles and a fumble recovery. While Adrian Peterson finished the day with 3 yards on 14 carries. The 49ers defense seemed to have found a way [...]

MMP: Andy Lee Getting the Shaft
It appears that right now Andy Lee is getting the shaft in pro bowl voting, at least by online voters. Mat McBriar of the Cowboys is leading the ballot.
Patrick Willis recorded his second straight 18 tackle game. (He’s already passed the great Derek Smith’s career high)
Maiocco takes a look at what went wrong. (Was Dexter [...]
MMP: Laughing at the Cardinals
It must suck to be a Cardinals fan this morning. Your quarterback almost throws for 500 yards and you lose to a 2-8 rival. Yep sucks to be a Cards fan.
49ers were 8-1 heading into the game when Gore carried 20+, well he carried 21 times and the 49ers won. (See Jim it’s not hard [...]

MMP: SSDD
Here we are again, another Monday, another loss. Man does this suck. At this point the only thing to look forward to is waiting to see who gets fired. The way this season is going, I’m sure no one will.
The 49ers are on pace to score the least amount of points in 49ers history. (and [...]

MMP: A Big Fat Zero
Incase you turned off your TV and watched something else, the 49ers put no points on the board and after losing their 7th in a row, they are perhaps the worst team in the NFL and possibly history.
Randy Moss has more touchdowns (12) than the 49ers offense (10). (And yet Hostler and others still have [...]

MMP: Not Rollin’ with Nolan
I was hoping I’d wake up this morning and have a different outlook after yesterdays 6th loss in a row, but unfortunately I’ve still come to the realization that this team sucks. I’m to the point now that if they happen to fire Nolan one of these days, it will have no affect on me [...]

MMP: Nolan’s on Notice
Another week, another loss. Not that at this point it should come as a surprise. It obvious that this coaching staff is clueless and in way over its head. You have the worst offense in the league and do nothing to fix it. Sad, truly sad.
Clock ticking on the Nolan Era. (As it should be)
Worst [...]
MMP: All Not Aboard
The Niners are sitting at 2-4 and if the offense doesn’t get its act together the Patriots will be looking at a top ten draft pick. Man does that suck. Here is what is going on the day after the asskicking from the Giants.
Gore says that the 49ers offensive problems are a matter of trust. (There’s [...]

MMP: Saints and Panthers Help Out 49ers
The NFC West is up for grabs and if the 49ers can somehow get their offense on track, they can take it. Shawn Alexander can’t run to save his life and the Cards are looking to be stuck with Timmy ‘INT’ Rattay as starter. Don’t even throw the Rams in the mix, they just might [...]

MMP: Andy Lee for President
It’s 6:37 am PST and OC Hostler still has a job.
I was just checking the box score and Andy Lee had more yards punting than the 49ers had in total offense. Thank God for Andy Lee.
The 49ers passing offense isn’t the worst in the history of the 49ers, during a 16 game season. That honor goes [...]

MMP: At Least They Aren’t the Rams
Where to begin. I was hoping I’d wake up this morning and realize that yesterday was all just a horrible nightmare, but unfortunately I turned on Sportscenter and saw Justin ‘The New Kwame’ Smiley giving up sacks and holding his ass off, and realised that yesterday happened and this offense has a long way to [...]

MMP: Gerald Austin is Old
The 49ers made it through the first two weeks without any significant injuries, but after the game against the Steelers the injury bug has finally made it’s way on the team. Manny Lawson is already done for the season and Vernon Davis finished the game on the bench. Let’s just hope the injuries that appeared [...]

Texas 9er, Who is Tim and Pat at Sirius Radio? 
Also,
the rams offense requires QB's to hang on to the ball longer. Look at Bulger and Trent Green. Both got ...
