Pete Carroll sucked as an NFL coach (ask any Pats fan) and I'm sure a lot of people had doubts about him coming back after being a successful college coach.
Jim Harbaugh was a special teams coordinator from Philly. I don't think he had an "exceptional" resume and was pretty unknown.
Jeff Fisher was a d-coordinator, who bounced around different teams before becoming head coach. I'm not saying he's super successful, but he's been around for a while as an NFL coach.

I think you're getting John and Jim mixed up. John was the special teams coordinator in Philly before getting the B-more head coaching gig. Jim was the head coach at Stanford before he went to the 49ers.
I remember looking at the John Harbaugh hiring in B-more and thinking, "really, a special teams coordinator?" Look how wrong I was lol.
