Philbin or Harbaugh?

Mitch Stringer-USA TODAY Sports


...I know the season hasn't even started yet. I know that we have a HC, and he is Joe Philbin. I also know that as of right now. Jim Harbaugh is the HC of the San Francisco 49ers. But! The rumor mill has started to churn. It sounds like Mr. Harbaugh may be at odds with his front office pals.

Rumors that he is unhappy, and could be looking for a way out after this year. Now, we all know that a million things could happen, and will happen between the time you read this, and the end of the Niners Season. But for the sake of the debate. We will assume that Harbaugh will be a HC that will be available after this season.

My question, or scenario. What would Joe Philbin have to do to keep his job here if Jim Harbaugh was available, and willing to take the job here? Would you rather see a guy like Harbaugh running the show? Or is important to stick with Joe Philbin if the team improves? I know that this is a huge hypothetical what if. But who gives this franchise the better chance of winning?
