The Charlotte Observer confirmed Harbaugh and Tepper had a conversation about the Panthers’ head-coaching vacancy. Since then, Harbaugh released a statement via the University of Michigan’s Twitter that he anticipates returning to Ann Arbor.

The Panthers have not yet conducted a formal interview with Harbaugh. That could change. If it doesn’t then Tepper was not interested in handing over full control of the organization to another college coach like he did with Rhule.

The best organizations find and then successfully maintain alignment between ownership, the front office and the head coach. The next Panthers head coach must align with Tepper’s vision and Fitterer’s plan while serving as a CEO capable of authentic leadership and winning football education and strategy.

Jonathan Jones confirmed we weren't interested in Harbaugh.

Guess nobody else was interested enough to suit him either.

It doesn’t impact us. It comes from the owner.

People act like Owners are paying their staff out of pocket. It's a business, they pay the coaches from the income they make. And they won't pay more then would effect the amount of profit they want to make. It's why JR was so cheap, he wanted to pocket as much as possible (or his ownership group did). 

I don't know what the 'limit' would be because I have never seen actual finances from an NFL team but I have a hard time believing they would allow it to eat into a set profit amount. These guys don't get into the NFL to win, they get into the NFL to get wealthier. 

Coaches' pay does not effect the cap but it does go into the P & L so there is a limit each ownership is willing to pay. My guess is that profit rules supreme and the coaches are making a lot less then ownership regardless of quality. It does effect the fans because ownership will make decisions based on profit first, not winning. Great example is Tepper and his turf. The effect isn't always that obvious to us outsiders as that example.

I’m still waiting on the NFL to create a Coach Salary Cap eventually.

why? It's a franchise and how they manage their own money. The NFL doesnt run these franchises.... that's not how it works...

Because I’m waiting for some coach to get a completely nasty bag full of money which pisses of the other owners. Then you will have some of the teams that have smaller markets and revenues complain that they can’t compete with franchises like the Cowboys and the Broncos.

Not every year is 32 NFL teams hiring a new coach though...

I don't think there are any real issues at the coching level pay wise.

Owners running a reduculously profitable business with crap products on the field is an issue for over half the league. No way to fix that unfortunately.

    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
