It’s an interim job 

He wasn't even qualified for that.

I don’t get it, Harbaugh is better than all three of these guys and could arguably be the best coach we’ve ever had and we just say “meh”

Again, where are people getting the notion that these are our only candidates?

I m thinking if I want the best hire, and all this talk is around a certain guy. 
Why wouldn’t we at least talk to him?   I would at least talk to the person and see for myself, instead of listening to what the other competitors are saying. 
 
I would not consider what the players are saying, cause a few weeks ago they was behind Rhule.

Ok you got me there haha

I know they won’t be the only candidates for the job, but to pass on Harbaugh and interview these guys instead, screams Tepper doesn’t have a clue. I mean haven’t you said you don’t trust Tepper as well?

I don't, but that doesn't mean I disagree with everything he does 

(I definitely agreed with firing Matt Rhule)

Oh I don’t either, it’s just his track record shows he isn’t good. The logo at midfield and the practice bubble…that’s about it. Heck, he can’t even get the field right. He just calls us basement dwellers bc we call out his bs. 
 

If you don’t trust him to make the right choice, why do you think he’s making the right call by passing on a superior HC?

Because I'm not convinced the next iteration of Harbaugh is "a superior HC".

The Vikings passed on him last year and it hasn't exactly turned out bad.

I hear you, but did they pass on him or did he just go back to Michigan bc all he wanted was more money? 
 

we were quick to hire Rhule who did nothing in college, meanwhile Harbaugh has done something college and in the pros.

The Wishbone is part of NFL history too, but I wouldn't suggest employing it today.

Of the coaches listed, only Pete Carroll actually has final say. Heck, Reid specifically stated he leaves personnel stuff to Brett Veach.

Tomlin had Colbert, Payton had Loomis, Coughlin had to dial back to start winning and Parcells actually got worse the more control he got (his trophy came working with Ernie Accorsi).

Having a total control coach is not a popular model these days, and for good reason.

Well said.

They passed on him.

After that, he acted like a child saying he didn't really want the job.

My guess:

Harbaugh kept shouting "go team" while Tepper was asking him about favorite meatball recipes.

Harbaugh asked for total control, including one day a month when he worked at a DMV and told everyone they had the wrong paperwork and made them run laps around the office.

Harbaugh kept saying "there's something on your desk I must have" and smiled in a way that even Tepper found to be creepy.

"Reports out of Minnesota about Harbaugh's interview last year with the Vikings made Tepper wary, sources say. A lengthy interview between the Vikings and Harbaugh last January didn't result in an offer, and sources describe Harbaugh's behavior during the interview as "odd.""

"After firing Rhule this season, Tepper was believed to eventually eye an offensive-minded coach already in the NFL. Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, Cowboys offensive coordinator Kellen Moore, Bills offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey could be among the coaches that Carolina requests to interview."

That list is trash and reeks of trying to find “the new fuging thing” instead of finally being consistent and competent..

Yeah, I didn't think Tepper had the balls to pull the trigger. Jim is insane, but he's no pushover. Tepper wouldn't be able handle someone with actual bravado. He'll want someone he can control, someone who he can 'collaborate' with and point the finger at when things go south again.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By thennek · Posted

      I forgot about Jackson...definitely elite.  The sad part of your list is that 2 of them were 'there for the taking for the Panthers'.  Rumor has it that Hurney loved Herbert and was vetoed on trying to trade up.  And rumor has it that Frank & McCown wanted Stroud.  I believe both rumors.

      Snow in the high country

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I went on a solo elk hunt in the Flat Tops. It was awesomely miserable. LOL It was a late season hunt, I think third season and it was forecasted to snap off cold with highs in the upper thirties and lows in the single digits. fug it, I'm going anyway. They were wrong. The highs were in the low 20s and the lows were in the negative teens. I shivered so hard the first night I thought my teeth were going to break. It was the only time I've ever been legit concerned that I might be in trouble. Crawled out of my sleeping bag and got a fire started and suffered through the night bundled up next to the fire. I slept the next two nights literally wearing every stitch of clothing I'd brought with Nalgenes full of near boiling water in the bottom of my sleeping bag. That was the only way to have non-frozen water in the morning anyway. There was about a foot of snow on the ground and the melt/freeze crust was almost enough to support your weight but you'd go crashing through just as you went or make your step. It was exhausting travel and every step sounded like a rifle shot. Hunting was basically impossible. I never saw an elk in those four days, only saw 5-6 deer. LOL It was brutal but I loved it. Absolutely beautiful country that is never been to before and haven't been back since. I needed that four day complete break from society fighting for my life against the elements. I'm weird like that.

      Big news that could dramatically affect our offensive production for the rest of the season.

      By Newtcase · Posted

      The lack of production is especially surprising given how much effort the team put into coaxing the best from him.  In just six short years he’s had the opportunity to work with 3 different GMs, 7 different head coaches and 10 different starting quarterbacks.  There’s literally no excuse to be made that one of those combos didn’t work.  It might be time to look withIAN.
