I loved this hire when it happened and most did as well, however I know at least a couple people were not happy with him, I bet they are singing a diff tune now
I am not sure how good this team is talent-wise but as I have said before, I am buying what Harbaugh is selling and that makes me feel good as a 49er fan.
Probably came when they were 3-1 that year? I'm still cautious but the differences I have seen are Alex's small but definite improvements, the ability to be competitive and even win on the road iand outside the division, and better game day coaching (challenges, clock management). I also like the roster moves (Baalke/Harbaugh there). I still want to see a larger sample size, at least a season or three...
Remember how good KC was lookin' this time last year? Ow how Miami was such a great turnaround when they went 11-5 a few years back but haven't sniffed the playoffs since?
