Because if I'm Paul Allen, I would give Pete Carroll the greatest extension in NFL history, 20 million per but it would be a performance based contract.
He'd make a base salary of 10 million per.
Then each win after 9 wins, he'll earn escalators.
Regular Season:
10 wins = + .5 mil
11 wins = + .5 mil
12 wins = + .5 mil
13 wins = + .5 mil
14 wins = + .75 mil
15 wins = + .75 mil
16 wins = + 1.0 mil
Total $$ Earnable: 4.5 mil
Post-Season:
WC win: .5 mil (automatic w/ bye)
Div win: 1 mil
Cg win: 1.5 mil
SB win: 2.5 mil
Total $$ Earnable: 5.5 mil
This would do 2 things:
1st: It would keep Pete Carroll motivated and in Seattle which would continue to equal great things for the Seahawks..
In this scenario, Carroll would have earned 17.5 mil in 2013.
2nd: It could possibly pile more pressure on the 49ers/Harbaugh situation, likely infuriate Harbaugh who is rumored to be wanting to be the highest paid coach in the NFL only to see his "arch nemesis" get the the contract reward he thinks he deserves. With more rumours that the 49ers organization not wanting to retain Harbaugh and the veteran players losing faith in his system because of his abrasive (whine like a toddler) coaching style, it would be fun watching that franchise collapse and implode once again into probable mediocrity.
