But for all the HC speculation there has been about whether Harbough is going to leave after this season, I have it on good authority that he is gone after this season to the NFL. I've even heard that he's told his players he will be leaving as well so that probably means Luck is out as well.

It'd make sense.

He accepted an offer to interview last year (Jets) so there's plenty of reason to believe he wants to be an NFL coach. Given his success this season, the timing could be right.

Is there precedent for anything even close to that (coach picking former player #1 in the draft) before? I know the rumors about Caroll giving anyone from USC a chance, but other than that...

It does make me a bit uneasy to be honest, but if Luck is any good I'll forget about it quickly enough.

I can't recall an instance of a coach and QB rising to the NFL for the same team at the same time.

It may have happened, but not at any time I can recall. If so, it was probably a long time ago.

If we get the #1 pick and hire Harbaugh, expect ESPN's research department to get right on that question.

I wonder if Harbaugh's comments indicate that he has already had a job offer, or just letting his players know he will be going after one. There's no way he had any real contact during the season already for a job offer is there? I know that's a big no no between pro teams but I don't know the situation with colleges. I don't know enough about this stuff, heh.

It'd be tampering if anyone contacted him early.

I doubt he has a job already but I think he is smart enough to know he'll have offers, whether it be near Stanford or not. It might not even be a HC job that he takes in the NFL. I can't remember a time when a QB/HC combo came out together to the same team.

The only way I see us landing Harbough is if he truly believes all the things he says about Luck and we guarantee that we will draft Luck. Otherwise there are more attractive offers for him in my opinion.

I still don't have my mind made up like others do that Harbough/Luck are best for us anyway.

    • Passer Rating Differential = Offensive Passer Rating  - Defensive Passer Rating    Offensive Passer Rating = how efficient your team’s QBs are. Defensive Passer Rating Allowed = how efficient opposing QBs are against your defense. The larger the positive differential, the more dominant your team’s passing game is relative to opponents’ passing success. Conversely, a negative differential means your defense is getting carved up or your offense isn’t efficient enough. Almost every Super Bowl champion from the 1970s to the present day finished near the top of the league in DPRD (Defensive Passer Rating Differential). https://coldhardfootballfacts.com/stats/passer-ratings-differential Look at where we are #16 and we have a Negative DPRD (-0.36). Every team above us has a a positive DPRD, is .500 or better, and still in running for a playoff spot.  Look at the chart. The best teams in the NFL have the highest DPRD. Only 2 teams below us with a negative DPRD are still in contention or the playoffs: #19 San Francisco (-4.44) and # 21 Tampa Bay(-6.62). And, Tampa has no shot if they fail to beat us down the stretch at least once. The teams with the highest negative DPRD always seem to be at the bottom of the standings. I didn't learn about this stat until 15 years ago. It's amazing how it always seems to accurately predict who will be in playoff contention year end and year out. 1 = Los Angeles Rams 111.76 85.23 26.53 2 3 Philadelphia Eagles 100.00 75.57 24.43 3 1 Seattle Seahawks 100.30 77.42 22.88 4 1 Buffalo Bills 104.20 82.66 21.54 5 1 Los Angeles Chargers 91.46 71.19 20.27 6 1 Houston Texans 90.70 72.40 18.30 7 1 Detroit Lions 110.41 94.40 16.01 8 1 New England Patriots 109.10 96.75 12.35 9 3 Green Bay Packers 102.95 92.09 10.86 10 1 Denver Broncos 89.21 78.78 10.43 11 1 Indianapolis Colts 95.12 85.91 9.21 12 = Pittsburgh Steelers 97.42 89.90 7.52 13 = Baltimore Ravens 93.87 86.91 6.96 14 2 Jacksonville Jaguars 88.07 81.23 6.84 15 4 Chicago Bears 89.48 88.70 0.78 16 2 Carolina Panthers 88.77 89.13 -0.36 17 2 Arizona Cardinals 93.49 95.79 -2.30 18 1 Kansas City Chiefs 88.85 92.46 -3.61 19 1 San Francisco 49ers 96.87 101.31 -4.44 20 1 Atlanta Falcons 87.50 92.50 -5.00 21 3 Tampa Bay Buccaneers 89.77 96.39 -6.62 22 = Dallas Cowboys 98.69 108.92 -10.23 23 = New York Giants 87.74 98.84 -11.10 24 1 New Orleans Saints 84.97 96.17 -11.20 25 1 Miami Dolphins 88.33 102.37 -14.04 26 3 Minnesota Vikings 75.03 90.31 -15.28 27 3 Las Vegas Raiders 83.50 99.14 -15.64 28 = Cincinnati Bengals 84.51 104.46 -19.95 29 2 Washington Commanders 87.24 107.74 -20.50 30 3 Cleveland Browns 70.46 91.41 -20.95 31 1 New York Jets 77.75 104.86 -27.11 32 = Tennessee Titans 76.27 106.03 -29.76  
    • Yeah and truthfully I’ll be ok with that as long as the talent and culture is building. 
    • We have been on the right side of one score games.  But like minny a few years ago and KC, we know that isnt sustainable and we probably will revert back to the nfl mean.  Which could mean a poo season incoming if this offense doesnt figure poo out
