1. Brutal division with 3 HOF coaches all with establish QB’s
2. Besides bowers not really any pieces to work with unlike Chicago or Jacksonville on the offensive side of the ball. Defensively it’s a mess besides Crosby.
3. Mark Davis is a terrible owner. Two winning seasons since he took control of operations in 2011.
Positives is Draft capital, living in Vegas and Cap space, but is this the year you really wanna draft a QB? That many consider the worst class in decades?

In a division with two coaches that won multiple superbowls, the third that’s won a college championship and has been to the nfc championship his first 3 years after they missed the playoffs 8 straight times. Had the chargers in the playoffs this year in that division after they were drafting in front of us. ( It’s why I wanted him as our coach 3 years ago instead of Allen)
And all three have young qbs going into their prime or in their prime.
They gonna be on the bottom for the foreseeable future. I wouldn’t touch that job.

Right. If they made him a top 5 highest paid coach with tons of control, I wouldn’t be surprised
Harbaugh took a 5-12 bad cap team to the playoffs too.
Dumb talking point. These guys flock to the competition not run from it, if anything

It’s worse than that. They’ve had 2 winning seasons since 2002. But they have cap space and an involved 10% owner I guess

I think it's a fun job. Very little pressure, massive support from ownership, he'll have tons of personnel power since the legendary Tommy Brady is probably only halfway the GM and willing to collaborate and even defer to Ben.
Also, remember that Tommy's oldest son is named Ben.

I think the Jets is the worst. The organization is run by a couple of teenagers by proxy. Worst owner= worst franchise. Raiders, Browns, and Panthers close behind. All of them have their own separate negatives and positives. None of them have a decent franchise QB.

The Saints job is the worse, the owner could care less about winning and the GM is a gum smacking idiot that will never be fired because he's bonking the owner.

Free agents much more attracted to NYC than NOLA for marketing purposes.
NOLA is the worst Ben Johnson told Mickey to frick off.

Baffling he would choose them unless they’re planning on giving him Belichick like control over there and a longer leash than they’ve given past coaches

The raiders could make him a millionaire.
Not smart eh?

Interesting if this is true, though. Things are lining up like this for the Saints:
Glenn to the Jets
Johnson to the Raiders
McCarthy to the Bears
Might be a blessing in disguise for the Saints that those three pass on them so they can get Brady. I think he’s the only one who would help get rid of Carr and actually start a rebuild

Agree we’ll be settling for the crumbs regardless may as well hire someone who generates some excitement.

Payton is not a HOF HC . He has just as many rings as Brian Bilick and has a .500 record in the playoffs,
WITH A HOF QB. Jeff Fisher even laughs at that. 0
Harbaugh? A HOFer? Are you loaded? The only valid argument is Davis has been a terrible owner. Listen bro, wives have a say so in where thier old man is going. No state tax in Nevada, plenty of stuff for the kids to do, beautiful weather, etc. What do kids have to do in NOLA? How about the ridiculous taxes? Crime? Hurricanes? Need i say more?

A lot more smoke this afternoon about Johnson actually really liking the jags job and that low key being the job most coaches kinda like the most.

Taking a job with the raiders would be a career killer for him.
