Schefter: Seven Teams Called John Harbaugh in 45 Minutes — What That Means for LaFleur
ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter joins Jen, Gabe & Chewy with major breaking news: John Harbaugh has been fired after 18 seasons, and the NFL coaching market exploded instantly.
Schefter reveals that within 45 minutes of Harbaugh’s firing, seven teams reached out to his agent — including organizations that currently have head coaches. He compares the situation to “cheating on your spouse,” explaining how quietly teams must operate when exploring upgrades without blowing up their current locker room.
The conversation naturally turns to Green Bay and Matt LaFleur.
Schefter explains why LaFleur’s situation is unresolved but clear:
The Packers want him back
LaFleur wants to be back
The real issue is money, term, and approach
Schefter lays out what a fair deal might look like, using Ben Johnson’s rumored salary as a baseline and stressing that how the Packers negotiate matters more than the final number. Come in low, and you risk alienating a coach who would immediately have options across the league.
Other key insights include:
Why Harbaugh instantly became the hottest candidate in football
Why Sean McDermott (and others) should be nervous after this firing
Why modern NFL teams prioritize offensive head coaches tied to quarterbacks
Why LaFleur would have a job “in a moment” if he ever hit the open market
How Ed Policy’s leadership style remains largely unknown — but influential
The segment wraps with a preview of Packers–Bears, with Schefter calling it the best-case scenario matchup for Green Bay — but also the most devastating loss possible if it goes wrong.
🎧 A must-listen, league-wide perspective on coaching power, leverage, and why the Packers’ biggest offseason decision may already be taking shape.
