I do agree that the coach is building and wanting to make an example of DA by trading him which ultimately says, "you're either bought in, or you're out". However, an intern coach getting promoted is a coach on a short leash. If they hired Harbaugh, then maybe he'd have 3 years to build. IMO, Pierce cant afford to have two straight losing seasons. How bad would it look for him to have the Chiefs knock them out of their playoff run, with DAdams catching 4 TDs. Fans would lose it.
