I stated here and i cannot recall what thread that he will lose control of the team after a loss in Seattle,you could see it on the faces.

Plus Davis and two other players stated that Harbs is very distant to them and "Old school".

When your offense is built around a downhill power run game and your QB only really plays well in shotgun/pistol formations these problems will exist.

Now Carroll he lets the team play whatever music during practice etc as long as they keep the drills.

Which is a huge problem.

Ya, he lost them with that bad Seattle loss. He's a lot like Rex Ryan. Super over the top shit works when you win but hangs you real fast when you lose. He'll be coaching back in college sooner than later.

Here is what I'm sensing and tell me if you think this is reasonable or not.

Harbaugh has universally been treated as though he's brilliant, a once-in-a-lifetime football mind. He's a genius and above reproach.

His players are not dumb and knew it wasn't true; that he was in fact a very proud person who stumbled into a made team who won, not because of him but in spite of him.

And they resented it.

Now that they're now winning, shit will unravel and Harbaugh is already powerless to stop it.

I'm sure they are pissed I know I would be they were so close to a Superbowl win they could taste it and Harbaugh decided to roll the dice on this kid. They should have kept Alex as a way to keep pressure on CK. It worked for the 49ers before with Montana/Young.

Not true. He took over a gifted team that routinely underperformed. He took that talent and turned it into a winner. The season isn't over just yet.

Here's my point: Coaches should make it about the players because it IS about the players. Harbaugh doesn't think, he KNOWS it's about him. The players have gone along with it because they were winning. If you keep losing, the locker room is going to walk out on this guy. When guys like Gore are ready to split, it's over and time to move on from Harbaugh.

Start winning and this is a non-issue but two losses out of the next three and I can see heads rolling.

I agree to a certain extent. Coaches like Harbaugh are accepted when they win. If they keep losing then he WILL lose the team. I'm not giving up yet. Losing Willis and Smith won't help matters.

Fortunately for the 49ers, they have a very winnable game on Thursday night. A win then and they have 10 days to get shit sorted out.

A loss is a different story. It's going to be interesting!
