Harbaugh? John Harbaugh?
Are you serious?
The guys that half of this board (OK, an overgeneralization) wanted fired several times over this season?
Pfffft!
No way!
You mean the guy who may have ended his franchise QB's career due to his own arrogance?
Now, the one thing that I'm not sure about is whether or not they're allowed to consider post-season performance when they're voting, or if it strictly must have to do with regular season performance. Harbaugh might get a nod if they include the play-offs, but if it only concerns the regular season, I could see Arians or Shannahan being considered.
Arains and Shanny are ahead of Harbs, IMO.
I think it will be Arians in the end.
I doubt it but he is in my mind. Getting rid of Cam at the end of the season, saving McKinnie until the playoffs, the guy made some shrewd moves that took balls of steel
When are the votes taken? At the end of the season? I would bet it will be Pagano.
Can Arians even qualify since he was only an acting head coach?
Just would be funny, John's going to be like "Christ, what do I have to do to win this thing? I've taken my team to the playoffs and won 5 straight years, 3 AFC Champ games, 1 AFC Championship...And I lose to an assistant HC?"
And yes, before anyone jumps on me, I realize he doesn't care about that award, he wants the Lombardi, that is truly all that matters.
