Ravens played us without a pass rush, but you don't mention that for Harbs. We weren't as hot as the Ravens, our defense sucked for weeks heading into the SB. We had close to 500 yards in the SB. First team with two 100 yard receivers and a 100 yard RB in the SB. More points than Kyle has ever scored in the SB. Against a defense that beat multiple HOF QBs. How is that not amazing? I'm not making excuses, I'm just saying that team was much better than you give them credit for. They beat Manning and he got 2 KRs from his STs that game
You're trolling right? We got people left and right putting everything they can on Shanahan but you want to give Harbaugh a pass for Justin and Aldon playing banged up? How about losing Greenlaw and Feliciano in the actual SB? How about Armstead, Kittle and likely a few others playing with injuries? Or do those not count?
The Ravens were nothing special on either side of the ball. 10-6 squad that had no business being in the SB with US. I don't care about playoff choking Manning playing in the cold. I don't care about Brady without Gronk and a defense that wasn't their typical standard.
We were built to beat that type of squad - statue QB, so so defense and a team coached by a guy our HC knew better than anyone else in the league considering it was his older brother.
To have a 28-6 deficit in that game with the roster we had was absolutely embarrassing. So amazing, we made it close after a blackout let us regroup and Ravens momentum wear off, wonderful. At least we put up a lot of total yards on them!
Guess what...49ers were tied for the most total yards gained vs KC in this last SB. Maybe we should get part of the Lombardi for that?
Yes the Ravens got hot, so did the Chiefs but here we are acting like Shanahan blew the game.
