I really don't get the Harbaugh hate, you guys are spoiled when you want to fire a guy with 62% wins and only one bad season in 17 years. And that season, half the roster was on IR.

Harbs is the reason we lose when we lose, and the players are the reason we win when we win. /s

Lets cut the shit. Harbaughs looked like he was on his way out before Lamar started playing. The franchise was mediocre as hell before he became starter. Lamar's impact is also shown when he doesn't play. I'm not saying he's a bad coach but if I'm handing out credit harbs isn't 1st or 2nd on that list.

too piggyback - Harbaugh has definitely made a lot of stupid decisions and you can tell in many games 1 drive into the game when the team is already outcoached. You never feel comfortable with any sort of lead. How long have we been loyal to coordinators that didn't deserve it? Is he a top 10 coach in the league, absolutely, but I still question if he has what it takes to win another SuperBowl.

Also responsible for some needless losses in Lamar era - couple bone-headed 2-pt conversions (incidentally, one vs Steelers), boxing Lamar into GRo cage far too long and the cherry on top - last season's AFC championship in game coaching.

To me, the "I see something different in Lamar" started last season. Multiple occasions we've heard that he's been more vocal ever since got that contract. Even after the Cowboys win, he was in no mood to celebrate. Humphrey had to be checked for that.
Started in 2021 for me. The Vikings and colts wins were ridiculous.
 
Like to just acknowledge how far Likely has come as a blocker. Meant to say something a couple weeks ago but anyone remember our first impressions when he was drafted?

Hopefully we change our tune this postseason. But we’ve seen what Harbaugh teams look like in big games long enough to know a little something about him and his coaching.

All common denominators have been removed, he is the remaining one.

The Steelers have looked mediocre without Ben. The Patriots have looked bad without Brady. Every coach needs great players just as every QB needs weapons/protection.

Andy Reid was considered a good coach who couldn’t win the big one, but then he gets Mahomes and is considered the best in the league.

When Brady got hurt they missed playoffs but won 11 games with Matt. Since 19 that roster has been awful. Reids worst season was 9-7 since going to KC. The only year he missed playoffs there with Alex Smith at QB. Tomlin made playoffs with Kenny pickett as his starter.

Reid and BB are also terrible comparisons because they bring something tangible scheme wise to a team.
