Why does all of the national media not give Carolina a chance at Harbaugh?

It seems that everything outside of NC/SC is saying that JH will likely goto 49ers or Broncos. In some Articles, they dont even mention Carolina as having a chance of getting Harbaugh...why is that? My guess is that the national media doesnt want Carolina to have Luck/Harbaugh...My friends who are Dallas/Philly/Steeler/Redskins fans all are giving me crap b/c I think that Harbaugh is coming to Carolina...Freakin drives me nuts!

Because they love their big market teams and can't stand the thought of two huge names like Luck/Harbaugh coming here. The Harbaugh ignoring I can understand - there is at least some evidence that he won't be here, but last night all you heard about Luck is 49ers this, Broncos that, we WE have the #1 pick! Yet not a word about the Panthers getting him.

Because we are small market and they could care less about us.

Yup, we're not "sexy" like the 49ers or the Broncos... as a general rule the national sports media ignores us, so this is no different.

According to Gantt, we've been talking to Harbaugh "for weeks".

    • No doubt.  I was at the game watching it and it looked like a fly ball to the infield.  It got in the air and just hung up.  XL tracked it like a shortstop.  
    • You need to go outside and get some fresh air.
    • Sorry, I don't get the "mental" thing at all. If his football IQ was as low as you say it is, then he wouldn't be out there blocking as well as he is.  It is quite possible that he's been pressing due to not really being in the flow of the game because Bryce doesn't look for him on the regular. His strength, at the moment, seems to be as a mismatch in the slot on crossers and slants in my opinion,and for whatever reason (maybe height) Bryce is more likely going to chuck it to the sidelines. So, in a sense, maybe Legette and Bryce aren't a good pairing, and that gives the appearance that Legette is not all there. Lord knows that Bryce doesn't seem to be able to hit receivers in stride so they can maximize YAC. But anyway...all that being said, I thought that X would be more than just a possession type of guy. So we'll see where it goes from here. I'm not like some, who appear not to see the value in a guy who can kill you like that, and kill you just as well as guys that do their best work on the outside, but, X is going to have to be able to consistently hands-catch on the run and separate better at the top of the route if he really wants to unlock his potential as an all-around receiver. If Bryce could consistently and accurately hit receivers, especially in seams on the slants and crossers, it would open up Legette and the offense. Just my opinion, but I think he causes all the receivers to press to varying degrees, and causes the coaches to call plays that have built-in limitations, but I could be wrong about that.
