Why Mike Singletary’s Time with the San Francisco 49ers Is Winding Down

Mike Singletary's job may be safe for the remainder of the season with just five games left to play, but there's no question his tenure as the Niners coach is winding down. The man who once pulled down his pants during a halftime speech may have to pack up those pants and take them elsewhere.

San Francisco was supposed to take advantage of a weak NFC West and get back into the playoffs for the first time since 2002. Instead, they got off to a disastrous 0-5 start that led many to call for Singletary to be fired. 

That didn't happen, but unless San Fran makes the playoffs, it's very likely Singletary will be unemployed.
