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.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      As I've said numerous times the last few days, having Thielen on the field has literally 0% to do with my views on this (I've even said I think Renfrow is going to take a ton of snaps from Thielen anyways).  He has more value to this team without playing a single snap than a 2026 5th round draft pick does for the franchise.   His value is helping set up T-Mac, XL, Coker, and Horn for long term success by helping them learn how to be pros, how to go about their business, how to train, how to do all the little things that helped turn Thielen from a D2 undrafted player into a borderline Vikings legend.

      Official Panthers roster cuts thread

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      He only wants to be traded because it's the Vikings who are calling. If he didn't want to be here, he could have retired, instead he took a pay raise to come back for another season.  I get it, it's an opportunity that he'd like to take, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face because he now wants to jump at this opportunity less than two weeks before the season starts. I'm not against trading him, I'm just against trading him for a return that doesn't help our team as much as having him on the roster would.  I'll put it this way, if a 5th is the best we can get for him from the Vikings and he's now dug in on not wanting to stay this year, I'm saying screw you and trading him to any of the other 30 teams besides the Vikings for the best offer we can get. He was perfectly happy here a week ago, if the Vikings soured him on that and then want to get him for peanuts, then screw them both.

      Yes and no, he wants to go back and his wife most definitely wants to go back. He took a bunch of team mates to Minny and has worked out with JJ two offseasons in a row. It's where both him and his wife are from.    The money was basically a please come back and help Bryce. Pretty please...here's some more money.    Now he's agreed to a paycut to go back to the Vikings.
