there were rumors that we had reps waiting in the tunnel after the orange bowl and harbaugh just ignored us

 

the press conference debacle might have just been terrible damage control for that

 

Few if any remember, but Gantt actually wasn't the only one who reported that we went after Harbaugh,

 

Tim Kawakami, a  Bay area reporter, also said at the time that we were trying for him.  Kawakami reported that he '"wasn't returning our calls".

 

I've long believed that we made overtures which were rejected, then pretended it never happened to save face.

ok so i'm reading up on this and the nfl seems to have put a stop to trading picks for coaches after the 2002 season and the gruden thing

 

so... what could a team conceivably trade for a coach?  just cash?

 

I remember them stopping it, but also vaguely remember allowing it again.

 

At this point, I'm honestly not sure (and don't feel like looking it up) :lol:

No they didn't, Herm Edwards got traded to the Chiefs in 2006. Jets got a 4th round pick for him (turned into Leon Washington). Using this scale Jim would fetch at least a 1st and a 3rd.

I have a few close connections that were on the Stanford side now with Nevada and still with Stanford who mentioned this.

 

 

A lot of guys tied to our later Capers year staff and roster have a poor taste in their mouth with the organization/JR and vice versa.

      I must apologize, my sarcasm at times doesnt translate well in text form lol. At this point I would welcome us signing him, Trey Lance, trading for Jameis Winston, asking about Deshaun Watson and playing phone tag with Tom Brady before I ever fully entertain a season of Bryce Young being the defacto Starting Quarterback of the Panthers.

      Bryce is elite at deep throws

      By beckersteen · Posted

      We had a QB who could do that and its the last time we went to the Super Bowl and the only time we had an MVP. Once he lost his ability to do that he was out of the league. To filter out insignificant stats I will only look at QBs who have played in 10 or more games this year. There are 28 qualifying QBs. Bryce is 25th in Air Yards per Attempt at 6.4. Only Joe Flacco, Cam Ward, and Dillon Gabriel are worse (6.0, 5.8, 5.1). Trevor Lawrence, Patrick Mahomes, and CJ Stroud are the median QBs at 7.1. Drake Maye and Sam Darnold lead the league at 8.7. Bryce is 18th in the league for passes that travel 30+ yards at 12. The median is Caleb Williams at 15. The league leader is Matthew Stafford with 26. With passes that travel 40+ yards, Bryce is tied with three others at 21st in the league with 3. Only Jacoby Brissett, Cam Ward, Joe Flacco, and Dillon Gabriel are worse. The median is a three-way tie with Drake Maye, Trevor Lawrence, and Baker Mayfield with 6. The league leader is Sam Darnold with 12. Having the ability to complete passes down the field (not YAC) stretches the defense and makes them account for more ground. It keeps players out of the box and keeps formations in nickel or dime, less line backers for your RBs to worry about. Bryce is why we have 2 losses against the Saints. If he had the outright ability to sling the football down field we beat the easily, but he doesn't. So they crowded the box and our 2 starting caliber RBs with our top ~10 Oline couldn't carry the offense to a win on their own. The limitations of the offense fall squarely on Bryce.
