And the reason why is because I think the same reason that they think why.

And I think that it's just there's so much focus on it.

It makes it sound like it's an

a daily occurrence when i think really everything is going to fundamentally be the same right the general manager in front office is going to do a lot of the scouting work and they're going to get all that information over to john harbaugh they're going to work together on and not just like the draft right you know that's free agents too that's their own roster everything

They'll work together.

John Harbaugh is going to tell him what he needs, and they'll probably come to a consensus on 99% of all decisions.

And when there is an impasse, those few times that there's an impasse, like, for instance, Joe Shane or somebody in the front office preferring Shador Sanders and Brian Dable preferring Jackson Dart, that...

tiebreaker is going to tip towards john harbaugh now and it's going to be clear and unequivocal whereas i think in the past it went to the ownership where they were sort of would listen to both sides and would kind of offer their opinion down the middle but their opinion isn't just their opinion because they're owners i think that was sort of how that's and that structure is sort of a little bit tweaked now so yes it's going to be john harbaugh's ship at this point um

But I think for 99.9% of things, John Harbaugh and Joe Shane are aligned in terms of the vision of the franchise, what the team needs.

Yes, it's going to be John Harbaugh.

I don't think too much is going to change.

On Chris and saying all that stuff or just Chris Mara speaking in general?

I think that there was an opportunity for Chris Mara to say a bunch of nice fluff about Joe Shane, and it's very easy to do that, right?

And...

he didn't really say anything.

He just, he said like, it's easy to even repeat what the guy before you just said.

And he didn't even do that.

He was just like, you know, all the things that John just talked about.

Like he just, he didn't even try to answer the question on all the, the things to like about Joe Shane or whatever, just kind of basically said that he's still here.

Um, which, you know, I think that just puts an emphasis that he's on super thin ice.
