Not shocked at all

I'm not shocked either--but like Shaggy said; they lost half the team in the off-season. This is like something you'd hear out of Oakland or Cleveland.

I think he was never meant to be anymore than a scapegoat anyway.

He was a scape goat hire the minute he signed that contract. Seems like a nice guy and I feel bad for him. Never had a chance

Tomsula was never head coaching material. Our luck, San Fran will hire Chip Kelly, and he will resurrect Kaep's career.

They may very well hire Chip Kelly, but IMHO there are too many organizational problems there to make it work. Plus, Kaep simply cannot hit open receivers, so I don't see him doing much in the NFL again.

no chance the niners hire him. kelly wants to be GM and coach. look at the way baalke and harbaugh power struggled against each other.

Not sure if it's related, but I heard that Tomsula was Balke's yes man, working behind Harbaugh's back. If so, will be curious to see where he ends up.

Hopefully a rebuild will keep them down for a few years..

Go Cards!!!

I heard/read the same thing about Tomsula and his shenanigans during Harbaugh's final season in SF. If that's all true then he should not be surprised by the way he was treated in getting fired after just one season.

Chip Kelly has said that he doesn't want control over personnel. So, get that crap out of any argument. I think Kelly winds up at either NYG (if Coughlin retires), Tenn, Indy or San Fran. All would benefit from him.

those ORG problems are the same ones that were there when the niners were dominant.
