    Harbaugh will have gotten his team to the playoffs in all five of his years thus far. Tomlin can't even say that. But, until he gets to a superbowl, people are going to give Tomlin the edge.
    Agreed.

    I'm glad the Ravens have Hard Balls.

    OK, I guess I didn't take it that way. Only DreamJo can say what his intention was, but I only took it as an acknowledgement that both inherited different circumstances and both did well in this circumstances. Tomlin followed a legend and took over a team with high expectations. Harbaugh took over a team that had past success, but that looking (at the time) at a bit of a rebuild. The expectations for him were far less and the pressure was far less, than what Tomlin faced, IMO.

    Still, they both did do well in the different situations.

    IMO, you can acknowledge the differences in their situations, without it being excuses to support Harbaugh. Or, at least, that's my reading of it. But, perhaps, I was insinuating my thinking into what was written.

    HARBS has beaten Tomlin 6 times to Tomlin's 5 wins vs him.

    But Tomlin has been to the SB and has a ring while losing to GB to HARBs none and often knocks him out of the SB picture like up there with 2 mins left and Jen goes 3d and 19
    and Boldin and TJ drop TDs.

    B-more Ravor, you seem to understand the version of the English language I'm using. I honestly believe if you swapped the two coaches' situations, the results of both squads would be largely the same. I had bowed out of the discussion because I had accepted "agreeing to disagree" awhile ago. Oh, and I'm not a "he".

    Ding ding ding. This is my biggest problem with Harbaugh. I like Harbaugh as a HC but am not crazy about his choice of coordinators.

    Offensive Coordinator. The defensive ones keep getting head coaching jobs.

    Re: To all the Harbaugh haters....

    I don't understand why you would base this thread on Tomlin's clock management last night, when that very thing is something that Harbaugh has been absolutely miserable at over the course of five years.

    If you want to say you prefer Harbaugh over Tomlin (outside of the Ravens fanbase, very few would feel that way IMO) then that is fine, both are good coaches, but don't see how you can base that on Tomlin's clock management vs. Harbaugh's...

    So, B-More Ravor didn't seem to understand the version of English you were using since he was claiming you were not trying to compare the two coaches or say they were equal, which you now confirm you were.

    Yes, exactly. This isn't that hard to understand.
