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

Walton's net worth is over $59 billion, Tepper->has an estimated net worth of $16.7 billion

Tepper would get outbid

And I'm fine with that...

I am too, but "he's a billionaire" straw man was brought up time and time again.  Denver has TWO billionaire families in their ownership group.  Dave wanted no part of that bidding war.

I didn't hate the idea of Harbaugh here, but I didn't love it either.  I think the dude has a few screws loose, but he knows how to coach a football team. Ultimately he would have been a short-term solution, IMO.  I couldn't see him here more than a few year regardless of performance.

This is just silly. Their net worth isn't going to affect one out bidding the other as no matter how stupid the contract, 20 million a year or hell 50 million a year, doesn't really amount to poo irt either owners net worth. The only bidding war that exists is in reality just about how dumb the owners want to be, not whether it will hurt their pockets.

That said, thank god we're not getting Harbaugh. I know lots of people have raging boners for that tool but I'm not one of them.

The Vikings passed on him last year and seem to be doing well. I do wonder what he's asking for in the interviews that's scaring away teams. 

The Vikings aren't what they appear (or perhaps they are). I almost guarantee that if Harbaugh was coaching them, they would be serious contenders as opposed to pretenders. Watch how it all plays out with them.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
