Pressure's on for San Francisco coach and hometown boy Mike Nolan, it seems.

"He grew up around this team, which his father, Dick Nolan, coached from 1968-75, three times winning the NFC West," states the author of the above article. "The days of the 49ers teams that won five Super Bowls are past. The club's record over the last three seasons: 13- 35... So the hometown kid with the deep roots, who so well understands the franchise's legacy, tries to look to the future while re-establishing the tradition."

Live up to the past while charting a course for the future. Sounds like a daunting task. Is Mike Nolan up to the challenge, or do you expect him to crash and burn?
