Bob Glauber argues Dennis Erickson is a weak fit for the 49ers and that Terry Donahue should have chosen Ted Cottrell or a stronger candidate. Glauber cites Erickson’s NFL record, his college successes, and past Seattle tenure plus his alcoholism as factors, urging a rethink of the hiring decision.
