More than just a Bill

There has never been an NFL coaching tree quite like the one Bill Walsh planted. The architect of the West coast offense lost his battle with lukemia today at the age of 75, but his legacy will live on every time a quarterback hits a receiver in full stride after a three-step drop. Here's BW as I'd like to remember him, being carried off the field after his final game as 49ers head coach (Super Bowl XXIII Niners 20, Bengals 16).


RIP Coach Walsh. Here's hoping you're in a better place where you'll never have to hear "49ers Rap" ever again!
