The 49ers ended a two-game losing streak on Sunday. But head coach Jim Harbaugh wasn't happy Monday with what was being said about him by a couple of former Niners, turned NFL analysts.

"Personally, I think that's a bunch of crap," he said in his weekly Monday news conference.

Harbaugh's statement was in response to comments made by NFL network analyst Deion Sanders and from ESPN's Trent Dilfer.

Sanders claims 49ers players and others in the organization want Harbaugh gone. Dilfer told ESPN Radio he thinks Harbaugh's relationship with the players has become almost toxic.

Reports surfaced last winter that Harbaugh and general manager Trent Baalke were also at odds.

And Oakland Raiders head coach Dennis Allen faces an uncertain future after Sunday's loss to Miami in London.

The team fell 38-14 to the Dolphins, to start the year 0 and 4. The Raiders have a 10-game losing streak, dating back to last season.

Oakland has a bye this week, which could make this the optimal time for a change.

The Raiders return to action when San Diego visits Oakland on Oct. 12.
