Jim Harbaugh has been a successful football coach everywhere he’s been. The Green Bay Packers may be in the market for a new coach after the season.
Peg meet hole.
Yes, there is now speculation about Harbaugh coaching the Packers.
There are two questions that need to be answered. First, will the Packers actually fire Mike McCarthy if the team keeps losing? They should, but we wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t. You can certainly make a case that injuries and a lack of talent have torpedoed this season. Thus, it’s either Ted Thompson’s fault or bad luck.
Second, would Harbaugh leave his alma mater — the University of Michigan — for another shot at the NFL?
That’s a question we can’t answer, but for the right job and right amount of money you’d assume he’d consider it. A glamour franchise with a really good quarterback? That probably qualifies as a desirable job.
The thing that I can’t really get my head around is Harbaugh’s personality. If you recall when he coached the San Francisco 49ers, the guy always seemed like kind of a turd to me.
But I guess if you win football games, that doesn’t matter as much.
What say you? Yay or nay on Harbaugh?
