He's not built for a rebuild in the NFL

I think that is the key differentiator

His style of coaching doesn't fit with a bad team that is going to have growing pains, it won't work with NFL players, just like it didn't for Urban Meyer.

Put him on a team with a well stocked offensive roster and/or elite young prospects (i.e. the Bears with Williams and Harrison) and it's a different story.

he took over a 5 win team and immediately won the division

There have been some rumors that the Bears job is the one he really wants.

Some folks expect the Raiders to go after him as well.

I'd bet a lot of money he wouldn't even consider the Raiders, and frankly, it won't have anything to do with the Raiders themselves other than the fact that they don't have a franchise QB in place.

I can't see him willingly going into a division with Mahomes and Herbert (who will have a new coach, likely Ben Johnson).

Because he took over a team that had injuries and woefully underperformed, not a team that was in a total rebuild, or even any type of rebuild.

They had 9 Pro Bowlers and 6 All Pros his first season, that wasn't because of his coaching, it's because they had some GREAT players.  Especially as it was mostly on the defensive side of the ball, which clearly isn't his coaching. 

We don't have a single player in that category right now, let alone that many.

we won 7 last year

 

your argument isnt making sense, but the fact is he would have jumped in a second to come coach here but no way tepper concedes that much control immediately after rhule but make no mistake Harbaugh knows what he is doing

Well, we had a better QB, OL, RB, WR, and defense last year than we have this year, so...........

Bringin in Thielen was the only good move we made this offseason, everything else made the team worse, which is alarmingly scary

Man did Ben play his cards right. Would have been career suicide to come here

When Bell is healthy he is solid.  I kind of like Hill too.  Trading away Moore and switching the OL scheme just killed our offense.

Tepper needs to give a shitload of money to someone in the Pittsburgh or Baltimore building, and let them do everything. Those teams are consistently solid at drafting and that's what we need here. 90% of being a good GM is drafting well and getting a good coach that meshes well with your draft strategy. Only 10% is free agency, salary cap and trades.

He has a good relationship with Kevin Colbert in Pittsburgh.

Haven't looked at the Ravens front office recently.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Nobody is giving up a 4th rounder for a backup QB And anyone who needs a starter badly enough to where Bryce would then be their starter, is such a bad team that they're not giving up a pick likely to be about pick 105ish overall, instead of just dealing with a bad QB situation for a season and then drafting one in a loaded QB draft next year. I'm looking through all the teams right now and can't think of a single one that would be willing to part with anything better than a 6th rounder. Barring injuries (and excluding the Panthers), there look to be 10 teams who don't know with 100% certainty who their starting QB will be in 2027... Dolphins, Jets, Browns, Steelers, Vikings, Colts, Saints, Falcons, Cardinals, and Rams. Of those 10...  The Rams know it will be Stafford or Simpson.  The Saints more than likely will be sticking with Shough unless he takes a huge step backwards.  So neither are giving up any draft picks for Bryce right now, just wouldn't make sense for either. Down to 8 Given their current QB situation of having multiple QBs they already need to evaluate between this year, the Browns (Shedeur/Watson), Vikings (Kyler/JJ), Colts (Jones/Richardson/Leonard), and Falcons (Penix/Tua), wouldn't be giving up a 4th (or maybe any pick) to bring in another QB to muddy the waters even more. Down to 4 Dolphins just signed Willis and wouldn't want to bring in another small Alabama QB who has struggled after just dumping Tua instead of just rolling with Ewers as the backup.   That then leaves the Steelers, Cardinals, and Jets left as it's clear none of them have any idea who their 2027 could be as of right now.  But the Steelers would for sure rather just see what one of the 2 QB's they drafted in the last 2 drafts could become than give up a mid round pick for Bryce.  Same goes for the Cardinals in taking Beck this past weekend. The Jets would be the most likely team to even consider taking him on, but I think it seems very apparent right now given them rolling with Geno and now talk of bringing in Wilson to be his backup, they're punting on QB this year to draft someone next year, so why give up even a mid round pick for Bryce?

      Where panthers draft ranked against Big Boards in 2023

      By strato · Posted

      Honestly I am not sure Pickett couldn’t step in for him. But I don’t see a clear easy upgrade and we are not KC with Alex Smith we are a team that hadn’t done poo for almost ten years and just made the playoffs. And looked good in the game. That stadium atmosphere on that day…. you know Tepper ate that poo up. Not one drink has been thrown in a while.  You had better make sure if you replaced him after that that you had a sure fire upgrade.

      Makes sense. If Bryce is ass this year, we are probably drafting our new QB next draft and sitting him behind Bryce for a year
