Jim Harbaugh could be Carolina Panthers' real deal

Harbaugh: "I think you play as long as you can, and then you coach, and then you die."

"Harbaugh also bows to no one, which former Buffalo Bills quarterback Jim Kelly might remember. In 1997, while still a player, Harbaugh took a swing at Kelly after Kelly had questioned Harbaugh's toughness in a TV broadcast."

This is actually a decent article if you want to know a little more about Harbaugh.

Quote I liked...

Said Oliver Luck, the father of star quarterback Andrew and a former NFL quarterback himself: "In the parents' section, I sit there with heart surgeons, partners in major law firms - these kids are mostly from affluent families.

"And yet Jim has convinced these kids they are a lunch-pail, unionized, when-in-doubt-hit-somebody kind of team. Prior to Jim, Stanford was considered soft. Now those players smack you in the face. And that's all Jim."

Quote I loved...

Said Harbaugh: "I enjoy being out on the field and having your fingers right in the pie. I enjoy the feeling that gives you. You feel like you're walking out on a ledge: 'What the heck are we doing this to ourselves for?

Gannt seems sure that Harbaugh is in the consideration despite Schefter and every other national media talking head....I'm going with Darin on this one....

daringantt‎ They have, despite reports. RT @TedtheThird Why is all the Harbaugh talked centered on SF? You would think Car would give a look.

You're right, Darin Gantt is a much more highly respected football writer for the local Charlotte or Gastonia paper than Adam Schefter is a national NFL writer. Gantt has better sources and has open doors everywhere around the league while Schefter is some hack trying to eek out a living behind a typewriter.

Could both be right. Gantt one would think has good sources in the Panther HQ. So Gantt's assertion that the Panthers are interested could be true. Schefter could have sources close to Harbaugh saying he isn't interested in Charlotte and also be correct. Either Gantt or Schefter could also be getting smokescreens from people inside JR's secret lair.

national writers also have a lot more to cover so they don't know as much as a local guy.

I wouldn't underestimate the credibility of the writer that has covered the panthers and only the panthers for years.

Doesn't mean Gantt is the better journalist but I'm positive he's going to have the scoop better than most.

You could take a 3 star chef and he couldn't make BBQ as good as a 50 year old pit master.

      Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.

      Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
