49ers offensive coordinator Greg Roman chatted with the media and he had one of the funnier comments I've heard in a while:
Roman says one time his headset was on the same frequency of an airline, heard Southwest pilots talking in headset during critical time

Roman mentioned that in the context of telling the media that the NFL had invested in improved microphone technology for OC-QB chatter. It seemed like we saw numerous instances last year, and really the last few years, where Alex Smith would put the hands on his helmet and have that confused look of struggling to communicate with the coaching staff. Hopefully this removes that problem, or least minimizes the issues. That was always particularly frustrating.
