Harbaugh to jump to NFL?

The fact he was able to do it with Jared Goff tells me he is very strong running an offense.

Solid point.

You don’t not try, because of some misguided belief of failure.

I didn’t say not to try. I am sure they will call McVay to gauge interest. I just am being realistic about the outcome. 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

It really is amazing Mcvay is only 36. He just got married this past year. He had mentioned he wants to be home a lot more when he starts having kids. He could get a broadcast job too.  This isn’t a Payton thing where he will jump back in a couple years down the road most likely.  Maybe when he is much much older closer to 50.

Agreed that coaches can motivate. But players can too. That’s why I’m ok with Shaq getting that contract and coming back even in a diminished capacity so long as he can help motivate. Some free agents could fill that role too. 
 

Of course winning is the greatest motivator.

Oh agreed on all parts. A little consistency can go a long way. I’m curiously optimistic about this off-season as it will be a at the least a mini rebuild. 

[JColts72]

Denver set to interview him next week. Hopefully Irsay does same, but if Colts win today; worried he will give outstanding Saturday HC contract.

I think the Ballard being let go might be happening. 

I am now thinking it's going to happen and Dodds becomes GM and he will bring Harbaugh in as our coach.

It doesn’t make sense that colts don’t have interviews known yet. But Ballard being fired would make it all make sense. Maybe he plans on resigning.

Agree.  It's been reported we are going after Harbaugh but no report of an interview yet?  Very strange.  Ballard leaving could be the reason.

Then king of colts said we should hear about a Harbaugh interview soon but a couple pieces have to fall into place. If that is true it all leads to Ballard being gone. What else would have to fall into place if he is correct.

That's what I think.  The couple of pieces are Ballard and Dodds.

I think you guys are spot on. Good insight.

Then would he let Ballard go without having a agreement in place with Harbaugh?

Gonna be an interesting off season or week this year. I can’t imagine we stay with Saturday.

I would say Payton is the biggest fish.  I think interviewing Harbaugh helps with the negotiation process.

harbaugh is better than sean payton 100 percent .    payton had drew brees and still would go 8-8  multiple seasons and only one a single ring with a top 10 all time QB .     harbaugh went to the super bowl with kap  who is average  .    we need to do what ever it takes to get harbaugh

[krunk]

Sitting here watching the pregame show and Head Coaching news came up.  Once again the person giving the news gave

the impression that Irsay really believes in Saturday as long as he can get him a quarterback and the right offensive coordinator.  Im hoping it doesn't pan out that way but I wouldn't be shocked. .

Maybe.  But I think the vast majority of the league owners would prefer Payton over Harbaugh.  Many of them would trade draft picks to get him.  The big exception being Irsay.  He considers Harbaugh a member of the Colts family.  JMO.  I hope we get Harbaugh too.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

wow I know this is colts thread but the GM shocks me. 

 

 

[GoColts8818]

CBS pregame said Saturday is a very viable candidate for the Colts job and that Irsay thinks he can get him a QB and an OC and he will be a great head coach.  It’s going to be Saturday. 
 

For what it’s worth CBS made it sound like it’s Harbaugh who has been calling the Panthers and that the Panthers called him back to get him to stop calling and that Harbaugh isn’t who the Panthers want.

I believe Irsay has always been viewed as one of the better owners.  What happened mid season with Reich and Saturday was 1st time occurrence.  I don’t think it would be a deal breaker for many candidates.

Lovie being hired there never made sense in the first place.  They should have just kept the guy who coached them last year if they were going to hire Lovie.

Maybe they have their eye on a Dodds Harbaugh combination.

I don’t think colts would ever give up the draft picks needed. I would not like it either. Not for a coach.

I doubt Texans would be on Harbaugh list.

Here we go again.  More interviews being reported but none yet for the Colts.  You can’t tell me Ballard doesn’t have his list prepared.

See my comment earlier in the thread from CBS pregame.  It’s going to be Saturday.

I hope we don't keep Satuday. If we do the OC is the primary need. Has to be someone creative and has their own signature offense IMO. I saw a report saying the HC for Miami is on thin ice and might be let go if they lose today. He would be an excellent OC for Saturday. That would give us two coordinators with HC experience, and could help Saturday grow. Again, I hope we get someone else besides Saturday. Nobody might even want to come here after this season though.

[colts89]

I hope to God it isn't Saturday. He should take the OL position at most if Irsay wants him around still.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Oh boy crap about to hit the fan tomorrow.

Rams a lot more attractive if Sean leaves.

Maybe add to that the fact that Irsay was right when he jettisoned Wentz and benched Ryan.

I think that whole rumor of harbaugh meeting with dodds at st Elmo’s or wherever could have been, if it happened, dodds selling Ballard staying at gm to harbaugh.  
 

dodds has proven to be very loyal to Ballard.  

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

So far it doesn’t seem like Harbaugh is going to interview with panthers.

I don’t remember DODDS being involved. I just remember Irsay being mentioned.

You may be right, but I certainly hope your prediction is wrong.   I think it would be a terrible, horrible look for the franchise.
