San Francisco 49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh has been an undeniable success, taking his team to one Super Bowl and three NFC championships. But he's also a grinder who wears down his team, his fans, and most likely his own molars with unparalleled intensity.
So it's not surprising that Harbaugh and the 49ers may not be long for one another. What's surprising is that the Niners may well trade their head coach.
Going from a team with both a recent history and a lineage of success like San Francisco to either of the NFL's true compost plants would be quite the fall-off for Harbaugh. The Jets seem a long shot, but Harbaugh has roots in the Bay Area. Both teams would be in position to draft impact players next year, but would they have to give up those players to get Harbaugh?
Regardless, it appears that absent a dramatic turnaround in both the team's trajectory and management's attitude, Harbaugh's time in San Francisco is drawing to a close.
