My favorite teams
I would agree that he'd be a great coach, but I think his schtick may wear thin after awhile with most NFL players. I actually think he's perfectly suited for the college game.I love Harbaugh and really wanted him to be the Bear's boss.
I actually think you're right about the leather helmets. You're not going to see players put their head down with a leather helmet.Want to almost eliminate concussions.....go back to the leather helmet with a mouth guard. Also, about a year ago we had a big debate about the practicality of design of a safer NFL helmet. I do not know why the Players Association is such a bunch of pussies because it is their life they ought to want to be protected.
Overall though, football is in trouble. I can only speak for Illinois, but there are already games being cancelled on the lower levels due to low numbers. Schools that used to field B-teams are now only seeing 25-35 freshman come out for football. And I'm talking about schools that have over 2,000 students in their hallways.
