Mike Florio: Could Jim Harbaugh be an option

Tepper can make an offer he can't refuse.

Anybody who can come into the NFL as a head coach and dominate like he did AND get to the Superbowl!? 

Unlike all these other names you KNOW Harbaugh can coach in the NFL. Most of these other guys are a crap shoot.

THIS man is the truth...

Harbaugh would be an improvement over the current coaching staff but I don’t love it. Doug Pederson or Matt Eberflus are my first choices

Eberflus would be nice but I want an offensive coach.  I guess I should clarify, an offensive who actually knows what they’re doing.  OL was supposed to be Rhule’s thing and, wow.  What a mess.  That’s why I want Hackett from Green Bay as my #1.  He’s been OC few different places, knows the NFL game.  I think he would be our best shot for long term success.  Harbaugh would be great for a few years but would wear thin

So Harbaugh says he has no interest, but the first post is that we could get him?

He might eventually come back to the NFL, but I don't think he would come here now.  He would want a situation where they have a established qb and a solid framework.  At least I would if I were him.

Or the first overall pick with a very good QB class to pick his preference from... I could see that being tempting to someone like him.

I have a buddy who is a huge Colts fan but isn't high on Eberflus. Apparently, the guy goes soft zone with a lead and his D has blown double digit leads multiple times this year alone.

Also, if you look at Indy, they are the same 'run the ball, play great defense, QB don't give the game away' style favored by Fox/Rivera/Capers.

Pass on Harbaugh. Unlike his brother, he hasn't been able to lead a team to a title.

I mean, how much time did he have? How many years did it take his brother to win (if we're using that standard)?

Come on, man, in two seasons, he had his team in the Super Bowl.

I wanted him when Rivera was let go. He inherited a mess from Singletary’s Niners and flipped them into Super Bowl contenders. That Niners team hadn’t been to the playoffs since 2002, in 2011 (his first year) they lost the NFC championship in OT to the Giants. He had them in the Super Bowl the following year. He didn’t get along with the owners and was forced out. His last year he went 8-8 knowing he was going to be leaving. 
I’ll take it up a notch and say Jim Harbough with a top LT drafted and Mariotta playing QB (similar skillset to Kap) would make for a promising year. Then we can grab KJ Jefferson the next year in the draft and I’ll be thrilled.

Mike Singletary "built" the 49ers team, Harbaugh came in and got production out of the QB position in a way that Singletary couldn't.  Also, its interesting how many 49ers walked away from football and how the entire empire collapsed when the NFL approved HGH testing.

Jim Harbaugh has always struck me as a huge prima donna.  I wouldn't be all that keen having him strut around the Carolina sidelines for a few seasons before his schtick wore out.  

I think he's a college-only guy since there he can bully players and get away with it.  And the teenagers are "awed" by him as a major deity at football-crazy U Michigan.

Yeah that 6-10 Niners team that hadn’t seen the playoffs in the previous 8 years…

You guys need to stop taking every comment so seriously. Between the post you quoted and the Beverly Hills cop gif, I was thinking some would see it was mostly done in jest.

    • I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.  
    • Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.  
    • The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
