The Wishbone is part of NFL history too, but I wouldn't suggest employing it today.

Of the coaches listed, only Pete Carroll actually has final say. Heck, Reid specifically stated he leaves personnel stuff to Brett Veach.

Tomlin had Colbert, Payton had Loomis, Coughlin had to dial back to start winning and Parcells actually got worse the more control he got (his trophy came working with Ernie Accorsi).

Having a total control coach is not a popular model these days, and for good reason.

"These days" makes no difference whatsoever. Whether it's a good idea to give an HC final control depends upon the person. That's the way it's always been and likely always will be.

Some coaches have more control than others regardless if there's a GM there or not, and some have basically given the GM control, but they still have final say. 

Parcells has two rings, by the way, so he obviously knew what he was doing.

Not so sure I'd take fan opinions all that seriously...

I can agree with that but what about front office ppl, ppl who know a heck of a lot more than either of us, they thought he wasn’t good so they canned him. So he will just all the sudden be good for us?

I was told by the Huddle Tepper would not get outbid.  Looks like he tapped out before the real bidding even began, lol!

No, if this "report" is true, it actually sounds like Tepper doesn't want Harbaugh. And that ain't got anything to do with being outbid.

Not really. It's primarily about Tepper just throwing money at the hottest name in the media again.

But if we were to make that comparison I'd say while Harbaugh is a much superior coach, he's also a very similar personality.

Did you know that Frank Reich has 2 hand and 2 feet? Got 5 fingers and 5 toes on each, too.

Can't hire Reich, he's basically a Matt Rhule clone!

      Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.

      Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
