I know everyone here is talking about Philbin on the hot seat and that Jim Harbaugh is Ross's Wet dream but Im a bit worried here. Looks like we could be once again bringing trouble to Miami.

I absolutely want Philbin gone.
But, I do NOT want Jim Harbaugh.bigbucks24, Mexphin, slickj101 and 3 others like this. -

Don't like winning? -
I'll take a great coach whose players don't necessarily like him over a not-very-good coach whose players don't necessarily like him.
You guys realize that the best coach in the history of the sport, the guy who made this franchise one of the premier teams in pro sports, was hated by his players during his best years, right?Skyfire023 and fins1 like this. -
Love winning but not the way Harbaugh does. Little decisions against his team and he is jumping around throwing his dummy out of his cot. Poor sportsman.
I do not want to see this every sunday on my tv. At present i have a choice whether i see his cry baby antics. If he became coach here i would have no choice but to see him behaving like a toddler.slickj101 and Larry Little like this. -

For "not being on the same page", the 49ers defensive effort was AMAZING. Philly's 21 points came by way of a blocked punt for a TD, punt return for TD, and a pick 6. San Francisco's D completely SMOKED Philadelphia's offense. This without Aldon Smith, Navarro Bowman and Glenn Dorsey. The team was also down multiple scores fairly early and came back.
I watched that entire game and the only time I got the sense that Harbaugh wasn't on the same page was when Colin Kaepernick called a boneheaded time out when he shouldn't have (San Francisco was trying to run out the clock to take a delay of game penalty to give their punter more room to pin Philly deep late in the 4th. Kaepernick called timeout. Andy Lee then punted it into the endzone. Touchback for Philly.). Harbaugh just gave him a look on the sidelines...as any NFL coach would have to their QB when they made that poor of a decision. Didn't matter though as San Francisco picked off Foles the next drive.
For not being on the same page, that was an outstanding defensive effort and a lot of resiliency shown against a quality opponent. Take that however you like.
But yes, I'd take Jim Harbaugh in a heartbeat. If he brings Vic Fangio with him, that's cool with me too.dolfan32323, finfansince72, PhinGeneral and 3 others like this. -
I love notes like this. It brings us one step closer to landing him.
For once the media narratives are working in our favor.finfansince72 likes this. -
Hell yes. And whose to say: 1 - Reports are entirely true. and 2 - The players are right.
There were times players weren't happy with Shula during the season. The 49ers still win.heylookatme and ckparrothead like this. -
I am very concerned that Jim Harbaugh, as much as I respect him and think he is a terrific coach would amount to nothing more than Nick Saban 2.0. I believe he should go back to the college game as I believe it fits him more. Just like Nick.
-
only if Harbaugh truly wants to come here.
-
I'll take Harbaugh. He's better than anyone else we've had for the last 10 years.
-
I'd like to see what SF players think about their replacement coach after Harbaugh is gone. The grass isn't always greener.
I'd love Harbaugh here. I was bummed Ross ****ed up and didn't court him right the first time. -

No, don't like Harbaugh...not that one, anyway... Guy has issues wherever he's been, even as a player... He wears on his coaches and players and apparently his FO...That said, if Harbaugh comes available, I think Ross would trip all over himself trying to get him here...Unlucky 13 likes this. -
**** happens in the NFL, on a long enough timeline. There have been player insurrections against Bill Belichick at times. It's how you manage through all that and keep the team winning that I think helps define you as a coach. -
-
Honestly, all the Harbaugh talk makes me depressed, because I just know there is no way this organization will be fortunate enough to somehow luck into landing a coach of that caliber this January. I don't trust Steve Ross to pull the trigger on Joe Philbin if the team makes the playoffs, even though better coaches than Joe have been fired after playoff seasons. I don't trust Ross not to bungle getting his man.
Just another pipe dream... -

I want a somewhat likable guy who's been there and done that as the HC of an NFL team before. There are plenty of guys like that coaching in the league today, but the Fins seem to be allergic to them.Larry Little likes this. -

I dunno..I wouldnt be suprised if Ross's mind isnt already made up...and hes all in for Harbaugh

I have a feeling players would complain these days about a young Don Shula as well.

Dan Quinn, John Gruden, Gus Malzahn would be my top three in no order. Gruden being the least popular name to fans, but I think as long as he is only a coach and not a GM he'd be great here.
If I was a player I'd run through a brick wall just to take a bullet for Gruden. -

Harbaugh is an *******, a complete total and utter *******, I wouldn't want him at my next barbeque but he can coach my football team. I don't have to work with the guy and players get paid millions of dollars, they can put up with his demeanor, if my boss was a dick but I made millions I'd be alright with it and I'd work as hard as I could for him.

He's basically a defensive mastermind who doesn't out think himself. -

Why is you getting starred out everywhere?

vt_dolfan Season Ticket Holder Club Member
Personally..I want an established HC now. Harbaugh, Gruden, Cowher, Rex Ryan
But the top three up there will have no issues getting the best coaches to fill out their staffs. -
The 49ers have to be up there as the worst penalized team in the NFL... and that comes from coaching...
-
vt_dolfan Season Ticket Holder Club Member
That comes from coaching. Joe Philbin has the Dolphins as one of the least penalized teams in the NFL. You keep Joe..Ill take Jim. -
Just seems a bit like grasping at straws. -
-
I still can't believe that basically half the posters on this message board would not want Harbaugh.
I mean, after 14 years without winning a playoff game, I'd just assume Dolphin fans would want a guy who doesn't know what it's like to miss the playoffs. I assumed wrong.
