The answer should be something like "college coaches don't make it in the NFL", "NFW", "Not Gonna Happen", etc.

But then I read all these threads on how Harbaugh is going to come in with a rookie and save this franchise.

So I expect lots of excitement after Meyer resigns and does Oprah..

So Urban Meyer = Harbaugh?

Not by a long shot...

Meyer is a spread offense guy who never played a down in the NFL and inherited a program at Florida with a long tradition of winning and a recruiting pipeline equivalent to Texas, SoCal and Bama... he's also a bit of a head case.

Harbaugh has extensive experience in the NFL as a QB, some experience in the NFL as a position coach and took a Stanford program that hadn't had a bowl appearance since 2001 and has higher academic standards than Notre Dame and within 2 years he had them nationally ranked and playing in bowl games again. He's had all this success at Stanford while running a pro-style offense.

I don't know what kind of NFL HC Harbaugh would be, but to equate him to Urban Meyer is ridiculous... Meyer benefits from a steady pipeline of elite atheletes running a gimmick offense. Spurrier was more qualified than Meyer to be an NFL HC and how'd that work out for him?

Jim Harbaugh is not ready to lead an NFL team.

I'm sorry, he's not. He knows it. The scary thing is how many people don't.

      Another example of Bryce playing chess that casuals wouldn’t notice or appreciate

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Yeah he's the reason we weren't up by td's at that point lol, DC having to get creative just to get into field goal range and then immediately trusted his rookie kicker. to kick a 48 yarder in the wind rather then let Bryce try and complete a couple 5 yard play action passes to get in better position when Green Bay had their whole fuging team in the box to stop Dowdle lol. Twice in a row. If it was already under 40 I'd get just running to set up the hashes but jeez..

      Meow Mix podcast cancels plans to return after players tell them not to

      JMO, I think it is lame as hell to publicly give up on the team and then crawl back when they win a few games. Like, how can you run a PANTHERS PODCAST and then give up on it during the season? Yes, you can argue the Panthers prior to Week 3 hadn't done anything to deserve fanfare, but nobody made them run a Panthers Podcast.  They chose to.  So stick with it.  Instead they gave up and did so publicly.  Which is well within their right - but you can't then turn around and bring it back the same season.

      The crazy thing about football is it’s a team sport. But one position can make or break the game. And one of the best ways in doing that is by not giving the ball away and being able to run at 4-5 yard clips. Throw in a couple passes and next thing you know you’re in the red zone. Playing this way limits possessions to other(more dynamic) QBs too. And if your defense plays well that could equate to between 4 and six series. If you’re running that efficient, you can say, split the offensive production with the run or the pass. So by attempt byce accounted for his half of the yardage and Rico did too. Rico also managed to punch it in at the goal line. And you gotta give it to our oline and they’re running blocking and that’s without TMO! so the truth is, Canales and management figured out how to use Bryce’s strengths to compliment this run game to cover up his weaknesses in a way that is efficient. And our defense showed improvement against pretty formidable opponent the week after andy dalton gave it to buffalo. They are putting winning football on the field more often, and we are slowly becoming better each week. I hope they can keep it up.
