This is a man who emphasized intelligence and character above raw athletic ability. He'll be missed.

Bill Walsh was part of a great era in football. While he coached the 49’ers it was tough as hell to beat them.

I was living in the SF area during the Walsh years as well. A wonderful man. A class act. A great team. RIP Coach Walsh.

I, too, was fortunate to have worked in "The City" during the Walsh-Era. And it really was. It was 49'er Fever in the Financial District whenever the team played.
And the SuperBowl parties! Some lasted for days. So did the hangovers...
Those days are long gone; and now so is he.
RIP, Coach Walsh. Another icon passes..

I will forever remember that last 2 minute drive from their own two-yard line to win I-forget-which-Superbowl...Joe Montana to Jerry Rice, line up, repeat.

Truly a golden era for the NFL...

Wow...didn't know he was sick.
Always admired his coaching abilities.....even though I wasn't a 49'er fan.
The 49'ers whooped up on my Ram's too many times to count.....
sigh.....
RIP

Walsh certainly broke the “Vince Lombardi” mold. The guy reminded me more of college professor walking the sidelines then an NFL coach !!!
