Count Down - Jersey #43

[DaveFan'51]

Starting with Safety Will Sherman: (1954-60)

In Will's 7 seasons with the team he had 28 Int's for 515 yards, and 4 TD's. He went to 2 Pro-Bowls. And was an All Pro in 1955.

Next up, WR/CB Jerry Richardson: (1964-65)

He had 6 Int's for 179 yards for us

But!! The Biggest thing about him is he's gone on to be an Owner of an NFL Franchise! He is the Owner of the CAROLINS PANTHERS!

NEXT UP, RB Jim Jodat: (1977-79)

Jim's stats don't reflect how good he was, IMHO

He proved his worth in 6 play-off games as a Return man


NEXT Up, RB Cleveland Gary: (1989-93)

He was a well rounded RB

He did get to play in 1 play-off game in 1989

Last Man up, THE TRAITOR! FS Craig Dahl: (2009-12)

The Guy went to the 49ers, and told them everything he could!

The Best thing I can say about him , is in 3 play-off games with the 49ers he had exactly "1" Tackle!!

I couldn't find any photos of our Rookie CB Jacob Hagen, does anyone have one!?

I do not miss Dahl in any way shape or form.

A classic vs Arizona where he tries to undercut Larry Fitzgerald on a deep ball in the end zone. Image taken off google from another site.
And it doesn't look like he's gotten any better in SF.

And it doesn't look like he's gotten any better in SF.

Looks like he improved massively to me ...

 

[Av8R]

My best memory of Craig Dahl was the burn he received after saying he would help SF against our offense. Cortland Finnegan responded that at least now our offense knows where to throw the ball. Haha

I couldn't find any photos of our Rookie CB Jacob Hagen, does anyone have one!?

This is all I could come up with.

I found one more #43

[Farr Be It]

Loved Cleveland Gary. I joked a couple years back, can you imagine his parents when they went to name him....

“Oh honey, he’s a beautiful baby boy! He deserves a name that fits him. When people think of our baby, I want them to think...winner!...oh what should we name him? ....I got it!!!”
