That defense and running game were JUST FINE before Harbaugh got there...what he did was light a fire under Alex Smith and THAT ignited the whole team. |

the niners are designed around that defense, you know this. I already said he has the offense dialed up.

SF had the 13th ranked defense in 2010 (the year before JH got there) and averaged giving up 327 yards per game.
This year, they are 3rd in defense and give up 292 yards per game. The difference is the upgrades in players and the fact that the offense is extending drives. Their offense only averaged 313 yards and 19 points per game in 2010 and now average 366 yards and 24 points per game. They are doing so with largely the same players. |

Well, then answer my question. Harbaugh and their GM was responsible for adding several significant defensive talents to this roster.

Do you not think that the draft/FA aquisitions in Rogers, A. Smith, Whitner, Brock, Culliver defensively added to that team?

Yes, it adds to a good nucleus.

So, Harbaugh isn't just an offensive minded guy along with their GM? You acknowledge that he id play a role in the drafting/acquisition of said talent?

Harbaugh is what Haleys ceiling would have been.
A guy that is imaginative and innovative as an offensive play caller and is an elite motivator of an entire team. |

yes and the biggest diff is that his GM was an insecure twit that eventually sabotaged his efforts long before he fired Haley. The second diff -- and this was perhaps even steven with the first diff, is that JH was given a football team that could do basic NFL stuff like run the ball, block and sack the QB, which is not what the Chiefs could do when Haley took over.

Man can you not see the picture that he lead you to paint?
Haley with a good GM had a good chance of doing what Harbaugh and the 9ers GM has done for the 9ers.

So, there is where we disagree with this, is that I think those teams are/were designed around their fierce defenses. But of course, JH is going to get those guys on offense playing better than say, Mike Singletary did.
