Several days ago I posted about how Mike Singletary's job as coach of the San Francisco 49'ers might be in jeopardy. I raised the possibility because the two of the Packer's previous opponents (the Dallas Cowboys and the Minnesota Vikings) had fired their coaches after their teams suffered big defeats to the Packers in games two weeks apart.
While the 34 - 16 loss to the Packers did raise even more questions about Singletary's future, it appears he survived the day after the loss with his job intact where Wade Phillips and Brad Childress did not. On the other hand, Denver Bronco head coach Josh McDaniels, was fired on Monday. So, on three of the last six Mondays, on alternate weeks, an NFL head coach lost his job. Who will it be in two weeks? Stay tuned for developments in the NFL (Not For Long).
UPDATE - 12/27/10. Singletary was fired yesterday after the 49'ers were finally eliminated from contention for post-season play. Singletary is a good man. As a coach, it appears "not so much."
