Fun Fact for Harbaugh Haters...

...Which includes me. The niners are my team, but I cannot stand those b-hole brothers.

So I take solace in the fact that a Jim Harbaugh coaching decision cost his team the game.

Two fumbles and looking like a bumbling idiot all day long, HOW is Kyle Williams still in the game??? But in the game he remained, and fumble number three ended the Harbaugh season...

 

DOWN GOES HARBAUGH! DOWN GOES HARBAUGH!

 

I was screaming to take him out after the first muff... But Harbaugh showed me!

 

i don't know how you pin a punt returner fumbling a punt as a "coach's decision." he DID return the kickoff following the first punt about forty yards. it WAS raining . . .

 

And I read earlier today that he's blaming the officials for the non-call on the Bradshaw fumble.
What a loser. He got beat by a better team, and as his brother will never recognize that.

 

I know it was raining. All the more reason not to trust the guy who had already not only fumbled twice so far in that game, but his second fumble was the reason they were in overtime to begin with, AND it happened on a punt where he showed bad (the worst!) decision making ability. He did have that 40 yard kickoff return earlier, which was good, but very straight-line and right where he was supposed to go. I firmly believe the other returner, Kendall Hunter, is a far more dangerous runner and returner than Williams anyway, and would have been at least as successful on that exact return. He's my pick for Williams' replacement on the punts, although I don't know SF's exact depth chart situation there. Maybe someone else was the backup. But they have to have one, and should have put him in.

It's a clear decision to me. You're in sudden death overtime, your punt returner has fumbled twice, and there's a rainstorm going on. You pull him out. Or to meet me half-way, at LEAST tell him to fair catch the ball no matter what. I'm imagining this same situation on the Steelers. Antonio Brown is hurt, Sanders has fumbled twice, and his last muffed punt in the 4th quarter put us into overtime. Now it's raining in overtime, and Mewelde Moore is sitting on the bench. You still keep Sanders out there, who not only has fumbled twice today including once on a punt, but hasn't delivered anything positive on any punt returns either? I put in Moore. If Moore is hurt, and Arnaz Battle and Jerricho Cotchery and Curtis Brown or whoever else on the squad who has had punt return experience are all also hurt and Sanders is my ONLY option, then I tell him to either get out of the way or fair catch the ball. It's not like a fair catch was a bad decision anyway. He only made it 4 yards before getting hit and fumbling.

 

That was the correct call. Forward progress had clearly stopped. I wouldn't expect ol' Harbaugh to understand that though.

Anyone catch him screaming at the refs for a late hit when Alex Smith scrambled out of bounds? I'm not even sure the Giants guy touched him, let alone hit him. He never misses a chance to flip out because the refs are screwing him over...

I hate him even more when I contrast him with Tomlin, who has made some mistakes in his time, but still carries with him some dignity. He's a guy that actually DOES get screwed over a lot by refs, and almost always keeps his cool. I've only seen him "yelling" at refs a couple of times, and when he does he's not really yelling or freaking out, he's just talking upset. Normally when he gets screwed, he just rolls his eyes and moves on.

 

Yes. And the whistle blew as well before the ball came out. Hairball needs to suck it up.
