Lastest rumour Ross going after Harbaugh now.

I bet the Vikings interview was just a smoke screen to pretend he wasn't planning on coming here all along. I won't bet much though but that's what i hope..

What Mike McDaniel and that staff are doing with jimmy Garappolo is impressive. Wouldn’t be upset if he’s the hire either.

I couldn't find a reliable source, but there are small, likely untrustworthy news outlets saying Harbaugh to Miami is a done deal and will be announced tomorrow.

Winning football games at any level comes down to winning in the trenches.

Yes, he's done a great job. Only issue is he looks like the great coordinator, but not so great HC type. Being a head coach is not just about Xs and Os, he has to be a leader of men and do many things at once.

People said the same things about McVay and Zac Taylor. Either way he deserves a shot and if its not Harbaugh it should be him.

No. It was two or three sites nobody has ever heard of, they weren't even football sites. But they were all quoting this tweet:

He's a writer at Fansided...so who knows? Hoping he's right.

It's not, anybody can write there pretty much. It all comes down to who that was that made the Tweet and if he could have a connection that could break that story.

Yeah, I'm tired of giving hot coordinators a chance. Would rather we go after a proven HC.

Harbaugh is a proven HC, not overrated. McDaniel is another hot coordinator in a long list of hot coordinators we've signed previously with terrible results.

McDaniel has never called a play in his life. Also…and I hate to make fun of the way people look but you can’t put a guy who looks like a Best Buy/Geek Squad manager in charge of your football team.

Why does calling a play matter? This isn't madden

The Bears talked with Jim Harbaugh. He wanted to pick the GM and have total control of football ops and his original asking price was 10 mil for 10 years. He lowered it to 8 at one point but ownership didn’t want to take the risk.

This came from Brandon Jacobs @bears4life8 so take it for what it’s worth. If this is true would this be true for the Dolphins as well? Could Grier be on his way out also??

Maybe, but with Ross and Harbaugh relationship I think this would be less critical. Ross would likely fire Grier if it meant getting Harbaugh, but unless Harbaugh has someone in mind he wants in place day 1 it’d be pretty easy for Ross to sell it as “you’re my boy. Let’s see if Grier works out, and it if doesn’t we’ll be on”.

Vikings is a different animal. If Harbaugh comes I assume he’ll have the keys to the kingdom, and we’ll see how that plays out.

Should be an interesting week.

We interview McDaniel again today.

What do you think are the chances he's our new HC by the end of today?


"Although we are capable of great acts of kindness, history teaches us that we sometimes need saving from ourselves – from our recklessness or our greed. God sent into the world a unique person – neither a philosopher nor a general, important though they are, but a Saviour, with the power to forgive... It is my prayer that on this Christmas day we might all find room in our lives for the message of the angels and for the love of God through Christ our Lord." (Christmas message, 2011)
