Considering the talent on hand, being overly concerned about the 49ers’ choice as defensive coordinator is a wasted emotion.
SANTA CLARA — Chances are the phone conversation between 49ers coach George Seifert and Mike Shanahan wasn’t a long one.
Quarterback Steve Young would win the Most Valuable Player that season while Joe Montana was letting his elbow heal in his final season with the 49ers. Ricky Watters and Tom Rathman were in the backfield, Jerry Rice and John Taylor at wide receiver, and Brent Jones was the tight end. Players gave Ryans high marks as a non-stop motivator and tactician who put them in position to be at their best.
One prospective candidate, Vic Fangio, went to Miami and joined former 49ers assistant Mike McDaniel rather than return to the defense he once ran for Jim Harbaugh. Maybe Fangio didn’t want to return. Maybe Shanahan wasn’t too keen on whatever changes Fangio had in store for the defensive structure.
