HOUSTON –- Of course, Jim Tomsula’s official record as a head coach remains unblemished, but the 49ers’ 23-10 loss in the exhibition opener was not how he drew it up.
“Whether exhibition games or preseason game or whatever, (if) we’re putting helmets on to play, we need to win,” said Tomsula, who’s coaching regular-season coaching record stands at 1-0 after taking over as the 49ers’ interim coach at the end of the 2010 season when Mike Singletary was fired.
There might have been some good on Saturday night, but Tomsula said he knows the 49ers have a long way to go before the regular-season opener Monday, Sept.
