Tales from the Vault: Mike Singletary (2010)

Host Andrea Kremer takes us back to 2010 when NFL Films Steve Sabol interviewed San Francisco 49ers Head Coach Mike Singletary. The future Hall of Famer discussed why it is so difficult for a great player to become a great coach and who his influences were along the way both on and off the field. . Looking back to his intense playing days, Mike explores his relationships with coaches like Mike Ditka and Buddy Ryan and why his Super Bowl winning team was never able to capture a 2nd championship. We also get an inside glimpse of what happened in Mike's first game as interim head coach when he ordered TE Vernon Davis to the showers during the 3rd quarter after an unnecessary roughness penalty. Enjoy this trip inside the NFL Films Vault to hear this fascinating conversation for the first time in its entirety.
