No harbaugh coming here


TylerDurden

Recommended Posts

how did you get cheap from this? He's said repeatedly he'll spend money on a coach. Their primary concern is winning and they pointed out that the winning coaches have come from the assistants, that playoffs teams are built that way, and of course (ugh) that the Steelers are.

Won't sign players until the CBA is done is his stance... has been all along.

I got cheap because it is cheap. He didn't have to say "I'm cheap." It's obvious. He doesn't want to go after a big name because it will cost more. He'd rather play duck, duck, goose, with loser assistants like Perry Fewell that shouldn't be anything more than positional coaches.

So that way we can come back 5 years from now looking for another new coach and say that one didn't work out, but hey, he saved a couple mil.

he didn't have an opinion one way or the other about harbaugh or any coach for that matter. all he said is that money wasn't going to be a factor. he did say that they were going to be a lot pickier about what they expect from them.

wow some people are just fuging stupid.

Harbaugh is a college coach, before the Luck/Harbaugh scenario arose every single one of us would have scoffed at hiring a college coach.

Now he's the second coming of Jesus The Golden Calf of Bristol and JR is "cheap" if he doesn't hire Harbaugh. Jesus what a bunch of pussies

JR isn't getting in a bidding war for Harbaugh, since he's never been an NFL Coach is my guess.

Personally I think the Harbaugh/Luck scenario, while expensive up front would generate enough buzz to more than Pay for the investment down the field. Compared to where we are going, Russ Grimm

So many fans are acting like spoiled brats, have you ever seen somebody run a business before?

Should we hire Cowher since he won the Superbowl 5 years ago? We did that with Seifert I don't remember that working out too well.

He was paying Fox and staff 11.5 million which he said was 5th highest in the league. How is that cheap?

Harbaugh might want more than just a lot of money. He might want more control of a team than we are willing to give. Also, how many times does the man need to say he's not going to be cheap before you believe him? Having the 5th highest paid staff in the NFL is by no means cheap.

    • I begrudgingly accept the 5th year option only because the 5th year is not guaranteed.  We can get out after next year if he doesn’t throw down.  History says he will not demonstrate his worthiness most of the year and then near the end he will somehow do just enough to keep the flame burning.  I feel like we are really and truly stuck.   
    • I think Darnold and Baker are great examples that's it's more than just the player. The Panthers organization during their tenures here was absolute trash. Both of these guys took 4-5 years to develop, bounce to multiple teams, and finally be placed in a great scenario for them to succeed. Structure and organization is more important than the player some times. Look what Patriots did this year, their roster was devoid of talent last year but you find the right coaching organization, add a few players in free agency and they are in the Super Bowl. These examples make me feel like we need to give Bryce more time to prove himself. If we let Bryce walk and he succeeds else where like Darnold and Baker, then it's the organization's fault and we can have Mahomes as our QB and it wouldn't even matter.
