Why the hate towards Fassel?

Just curious why people are so strongly against bringing in Fassel, yet are pro Mariucci. Just wondering what the big difference is? Is it just because Mooch is on TV and is a likable guy?

I am against Fassel because he is a career loser. His only success has been limping into the most pathetic superbowl in superbowl history(against a Ravens team that did not score an offensive touchdown for 7 straight weeks).
The guy simply can't get it done, and couldn't even last a full season as an OC in Baltimore. Awful. I give the guy zero tolerance for mistakes. Snyder is an idiot, and this would only re-enforce that. I have no love for Mooch either.

What I would like to see is a real football guy running things. Cerrato is Snyder's whipping boy and that is it. The Dolphins wanted to get better so they went out and hired the best guy they could find to run there operation. Snyder is the polar opposite. Now that Gibbs is gone, there is no restraining him. I will give an unknown guy a chance, but I give Fassel none.

It's because Mooch plays BacciBall (jk).

There really isn't much. If you stand back and look at both they each have pros and cons. The difference lies in when they turned up as potential replacements for Gibbs. At first, we all assumed it would be GW. Then Fassell entered the picture and he was seen as the bad guy who was keeping GW from becoming coach. Now, Mooch is the anti-Fassel.
Seems dumb, I know, but it goes to "the enemy of my enemy is my friend."
Personally, I think Fassel is tainted by Baltimore and I'd rather not have another former NFC East foe coaching the Skins (Norv?).

Because Fassel sucks!

Mooch is better because he's better than Fassel!

Fassel sucks because he was fired by the Ravens.

Mooch sucks because he was fired by the Lions.

Hell, whoever we get it doesn't matter because we're still going to suck!

But then again, if we get Mooch, will that make us the Detroit Lions East?

Snyder should sell the team!

Seriously, I'm not sure if theres a big difference between the two. Both have winning records, both have playoff experience, and both are "players" coaches. They both run the West Coast Offense. The only huge difference is that Fassel made it to the Super Bowl. Other than that, they're both very similar, IMO.

I have no problem between the two
belicheat was fired by the browns too........

I think for me...I don't like him, because he represents, what I feel, the opposite of what Williams would have brought to the table.....plus I still see him as a Giant...it would be like Parcells coming here

I don't understand all the hate either. How can you not love this guy?

Just look at that punim...

He actually has a winning record for this career. I know... those pesky facts again!

I'm pro Mooch having been through his years here in SF. He's an excellent coach who came in when the 49ers were getting old, ownership problems (Eddie D. got caught on gambling scandal) salary cap caught up to the team, Young's concussions forced him to retire, TO and Jerry Rice whining, pretty much the shit hit the fan all at once and he was made the scapegoat cause he was loyal to Eddie D. and not his sister and husband (the new owners) The players love him, he's smart and a winner. Out of all the candidates out there he would be my #1 choice. His team came from behind to beat Fassel's team in the playoffs.
