Re: So is Flacco on the hot seat now, or is it Harbaugh?
I am not saying Harbaugh is a horrible gameday coach by pointing out this decision, but that is mainly because many many (most) other coaches are just as stupid, so everything is relative.
But there are "mistakes" and then there are bad decisions that point to an overall lack of ability to weigh risks and rewards. In other words, some single mistakes are bad enough to allow us to conclude some things about the decision-maker. Constantly choosing the 40 side of 60/40 decisions is one thing. Choosing, even a single time, the 2 side in a 98/2 scenario tells us something else. The latter is much more damning, imo.
All that said, I think Harbaugh's non-gameday "coaching"/motivating is clearly admirable. His gameday "coaching" needs a lot to be desired, but again, that is the case for most coaches, including some with rings and great winning percentages.
And to repeat, he isn't in the same zip code as a hot seat, atm.
