I actually think Jim Harbaugh is the real winner of the two brothers.
Hmmm... Jim is 66-31-1, .679 in the regular season, and 5-4 (.556) in the playoffs, with a Super Bowl loss to John. 4 playoff appearances in 6 years (.667).

John is 180-113-0, .614 in the regular season, and 13-11 (.542) in the playoffs, with a Super Bowl win over Jim. 12 playoff appearances in 18 years (.667).

But, John is available and Jim isn't, so....

Lost in all the speculation and hopes regarding the possibility of Harbaugh coming to Arizona, is the fact that the Baltimore opening is instantly miles better than all of the others, which will make it that much harder for the Cardinals to attract a good candidate.

Am i wrong to be concerned that Harbaugh's players wanted him gone?

I know Jim Harbaugh has a rep where after 4 years or so he burns players out --

You’re not wrong.

I also think it’s concerning that he doesn’t call offense or defense plays. This isn’t Sean Payton or Andy Reid here.

Baltimore fans still hate they didn’t get rid of Harbaugh for Mike Macdonald.

He only had three losing seasons in 18 years (8-9, 8-9, and 5-11), so I guess the players adjust.
Each losing season was at least 4-5 years from the next one.

How is anyone not wanting John Harbaugh?

Like really who the hell do you think the Cards are. We are a basement franchise that desperately needs someone that knows the game.

The dude has been to the playoffs 12 times. The Cards have been to the playoffs 11 times in 100 years.

Get your crap together as a fan.

That’s exactly who he is.

You guys are way overthinking this.

We will be blessed to get this guy. He is a fricking Harbaugh.

I don’t think he will come here but Bidwill, M. better try everything he can to get him.

Just so all you Harbaugh jock sniffers are aware, Ravens fans have been begging for him to be fired for at least the last 5 years. Just saying lol.
Easy to call for a man's job in a world where success is demanded not wished for. Cardinals fans have zero ability to turn up their nose at such a coach. Tomlin too for that matter.

Yeah any smart coach isn’t coming here to coach against NFC West coaches, only a desperate coach, or at least a coach without options.
Only studs would willingly take this job with other options. No challenge is too great to those types. Sadly, we will not get a stud.

I think Tomlin might be available as well if they lose this week.

Yep. There’s a better chance that Jesus Christ is our next HC. Harbaugh wouldn’t give Bidwill the time of day lol.
That would be the Cardinals way... bring a guy who can walk on water to a town where it never rains.

j/k.

I just can't see any way the Bidwill's will pay the money required to land Harbaugh, or any experienced coach. I think it's the main reason Sean Payton is in Denver, while getting ready for the playoffs, while making $18MM/year.

Harbaugh Salary ~ $17MM per year
KK Salary ~5.5 MM per year
JG Salary ~ 4.0 MM per year
