I don't see how you could disagree with that

If I were a coach, I'd take that Denver job IMMEDIATELY. Keep Wade Phillips, evaluate the QB spot, and get things going.

I'd put the bills above the 49ers. 49ers owners are toxic and their roster is garbage.

Someone needs to write a book on the fall of the 49ers after the ousting of Harbaugh.

Yeah, I'd definitely rank the Niners last because of ownership and put Jax second to last. Jax has never really had the core team they need to be successful and the Jax area is not a major market at all. I see the Bills as a few personnel decisions away from the playoffs conaistently.

I still have no idea how the idiotic 49ers ownership chose to side with their terrible GM over Harbaugh.

And yeah, not surprised Denver is considered the best job available. Not only on the field, but Elway has been fantastic at building that roster, and it's one of the best cities to be in

What about Denver with Payton and Brees with a Wade D. Back to back? Plus the added bonus of Brees going deep in thinner air.

Jacksonville's roster is pretty loaded with talent. Best case you can fix Bortles with a new offense, worst case you have to find a new QB. But they have a decent run game, young and good recievers and some really nice pieces on defense. The right coach there and they'll dominate. If you win the market will support you, just like every other sport.

I don't think people realize just how much dysfunction exists in Buffalo. The fact the Bills job is ranked below the 49ers isn't a mistake.

Strangely enough, the defense still needs a little work. They were HORRIBLE at defending the run down the stretch. Like almost last in the NFL over the final 8 games. Kinda crazy.

They also have some issues at OL and RB. Couldn't get their running game going at all.

Still obviously the best job available and these are manageable issues compared to the rest, but still worth noting.

1. Broncos
2. Rams
3. Chargers
4. Jaguars
5. Bills
6. 49ers

The Rams will go big with this new coach to go along with the new stadium and market, then that'll set the ball rolling towards a yearly contender-type team. The Chargers have a good, loyal fanbase and some talent on offense to work with.

The Jags are a lot like the Browns with a much smaller and less dedicated fanbase. It seems like the problem with these franchises is the history of being considered losers. They can swap every piece imaginable (and they have) and still not be worth a damn because of something in the atmosphere that gets in the players heads. The Raiders are slowly digging themselves out of this same position after decades of the losers mentality but the Browns and Jags continue to reset the process over and over again.

The paragraph above can also pertain to the Bills, although they've been closer to being decent in recent history and have a little more respect surrounding their franchise.

The 49ers are just a clusterfrick with bad everything. They had a massive fall from the dominant defenses of the Harbaugh era, the ownership and management can't get out of their own way let alone the coach's, and the Chip Kelly experiment ruined everything else they had going for them.

Bills ownership sucks too and at least you can get FAs to come to SF without overpaying unlike Buf

Man Harbaugh with the Chargers would be nice, they have a stout defense already and a good enough offense.
