I just want to give a shout out to Coach John Harbaugh. We are very lucky and blessed to have a coach like John in our organization. You can see by the way he communicates with his team, the way he handles the media and even his sideline actions that he is a passionate and caring person. He puts the TEAM first and drives and motivates the players in a way that few coaches can. If you watched the post game pressers, be was classy and even apologized for getting so upset over the power outage. He spoke glowingly of the 49ers and his brother. Meanwhile, Jim - although justifiably upset - spent way too much time whining about the refs, etc. rather than showing poise and class. He is a great coach, but could learn a lot from watching his big brother.

I for one KNOW WITHOUT A DOUBT....we have the Harbaugh we want and need!

No question, John is gracious, determined, kind and SKILLED at his craft. I'm thiking this is the start of a HOF career for him.
I've ALWAYS thought he was the right guy for the job. Next year, he'll have to do his finest work.
Life with out Ray Lewis may look daunting , but John is the man to rally the Ravens and put together a solid season next year!

Yeah we do and just think of all the debates about whether or not we should have hired Rex as our HC. We have the greatest owner and front office in all of sports.

And some wanted him fired for the other Harbaugh.

From the moment both teams made it to the Super Bowl, the Ravens were the classier team. They treated the Super Bowl with respect. They gave the media bones on media day. They dressed in suits. They appeared when asked.

They were a true Super Bowl team. They gave the fans, media, the NFL everything they wanted during the week, and the game.

Whaaaaaaa????

Whaaaaaaa????

Thats actually quite terrifying, looks like something from a horror movie.

Zombie Harbaugh.

[IMissMattStover]

The way his face moves back and forth makes it look like he's taking heavy zombie-like steps.

I usually like coaches to show more emotion but some of Jim's reactions were a little over the top. As a fan I jump and flail my arms and yell at bad calls but a coach has to show a little more composure. Show your players that penalties and big plays don't phase you. Use them as motivation and don't complain.

Had the lights not shut off the 49ers would have been stopped dead in their tracks. Kind of happy they did go off because it made this Super Bowl memorable.

[Ragin'Raven]

You could tell that from the talk about what he'd do with the Super Bowl ring. Any other sibling would rub something like that in a younger sibling's face. I can see Harbaugh wearing that ring only when he's someplace that's mandatory to do so. Very humble and classy guy.

I've said it before. Tony Dungy type coach. Gracious, humble, Christian, extremely family oriented. The way he carries his life off the field weighs so much more than how he performs on the field.

[Bltravens]

Both are damn good coaches, and to be honest Jim's expertise have more outcome on games (though John's special team experience certainly showed last night with the fake FG and safety call) Jim has basically taken the 49ers from the trash bin to a top 5 franchise again, strictly based on how well he knows offenses and how to attack defenses. He completely changed his offense for Kaepernick midseason, that's not easy to do at all.

Having said that, Jim was going absolutely bananas on the sidelines, I don't know if he's usually like that but I can't say I was fond of that behaviour.

I think John had us better prepared for this game as well.

[mdrsharon]

No question who is more "the man".
John looks like a class act, suit and tie, smile and very correct with all answers.
Jim looks like a slob, no smile, short answers to all questions,

Today in the press, Jim is totally on the sour grapes deal, complaining about that last play, with the no call, and general officiating.
The refs have said it wasn't a call, and they were not going to determine a game this big with a bad call. Jim is all over the press with negativity, saying the 49ners "deserved to win".

Don't think so...

John is the best, as are our Ravens!!!

[NaveSenrag]

When Jim wants a call, he really goes all out. The flubbed call in the Championship had him breakdancing on the sideline.

Honestly, I think it might be a family trait. John doesn't jump around much, but I'm pretty sure he yells at the refs even when they make a call in the Ravens' favor.

[mdrsharon]

John does yell, but not like a maniac.
And is usually correct.

[CTSxViper]

Agreed.. We are blessed to have John as our coach. Total class.

[PolishRifle]

Class acts always wear their hats at jaunty angles.



That proves everything!
