Choosing Carolina over San Fran?

Trying to look at this objectively. If I were coach Harbaugh and had my choice, wanting to be successful early, I would choose San Francisco. However that just me hedging my bets so to speak. So trying to answer objectively as possible, which would you choose?

My main reason is that a 7-9 team just won the division. I wouldn't have to go against Brees, Ryan and Freeman. Cubbords aren't bare and even though Luck would be gone (possibly), I could still get a pretty decent Cam Newton, or Mallet, etc. I might be able to salvage one of the Smiths. Also I am already in California, won't have to move the family.

Why would you choose Carolina over San Fran? Try to be as objective as possible.

One reason I can think of off the top of my head...from personal level, lower taxes and lower cost of living. My 10 mil/yr would go alot further in NC vs. CA.

I posted this in another thread.

Yeah and another thing, if the money is remotely similar, why in the hell would you go to SanFran with no QB worth a damn. When he could come here and have a kid that he PERSONALLY recruited.

I mean what better way to start your NFL coaching career than with a good organization, YOUR personal recruit and a player that you have called the best player in the country, and a team with talent at key positions, and finally and more recently, the ability to hire your own coaching staff.

This....

Plus, there are rumors that he will tick off a lot of Stanford folks when he leaves.

Ownership is a big one.

Richardson >>>>>>>> Yorks

Despite Fox's bleating about what a cheap franchise we are (and the subsequent media run with it), we're a respected franchise who has never been shy with the checkbook until this one year.

We've also been much more competitive (while in a stronger conference) than the 49ers of late, this being our only truly bad team in a long while.

This. I live in Cali and have a bit of family in NC, and my brother took a job in NC making the same as he did in Cali, but upgraded from a 3 bed 2 1/2 bath townhouse to a 5 bed 4 bath house in NC. Just makes good financial sense.

Who the hell wouldn't choose Carolina over San Fran?

Panthers have the #1 draft pick.

The new CBA will probably be in place before the next season starts. Panthers will probably be like 50m+ under the cap. A new HC will have a field day.

Carolina, has more young talent to work with than the 9ers do, yes, on defense and offense. Especially on offense if you consider what our rookie WRs did to the 49ers earlier in the season.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
