The dust of Sunday’s win against the St. Louis Rams has settled, and now fans are trying to digest the firing of head coach Jim Tomsula and the direction of the franchise moving forward. The San Francisco 49ers won their final game of the season to finish 2015 with a measly 5-11 record, contributing to the list of reasons for Tomsula’s dismissal.
In the coming weeks, the 49ers coaching situation will clear up as general manager Trent Baalke picks the next man to be compared to former head coach Jim Harbaugh.
Regardless of the choice that Baalke makes, the 49ers players gave the next man up a glimpse into the future with their play on Sunday.
