Sean Payton was the last well-respected coach who was on the market. He didnt come here. Why would Harbaugh in a WORST situation this Payton was on the market??
Payton at least took an interview here... Don't crush our dreams.

Really not sure why anyone thinks this guy isn't about to use us for leverage to get the job he actually wants.

Andy Reid, Sean Payton, Peyton Manning. This isn't hard to predict when our owner is and always will be the infinite problem.

Peter Schrager just mentioned the Giants AND Arizona as possibilities citing Monti's connections to Baltimore. Baltimore is on the hook for two more seasons so the cash outlay wouldn't be that great..
Send the plane Michael. Invite him to the Fiesta Bowl and wine and dine him

John Harbaugh's Ravens' teams had been underachieving in recent years and the Cards don't have an mvp quarterback, a pretty good roster, or a strong organization like the Ravens do.

Harbaugh is the name that would give this bum poverty franchise instant credibility. He turned Lamar Jackson into an MVP. This is by far the toughest division in football. All three teams have young(ish) coaches and that could be around for a while. You need a coach like this too compete. If we dont get Harbaugh, then we will continue to be poverty. I said the same exact thing about Payton, and i was right. Not getting Payton cost us. Harbaugh or nothing.

Gambo says no chance. Will take 20 million a year to get
He said 75-100 mil over five years to get it done. Also that he wasn't expecting Cardinals to go after Harbaugh but that if they did it would be a major perception change for the team.
