Can someone please shut John Harbaugh the hell up?

If Harbaby truly believes the refs get it wrong most of the time, he must have undiagnosed Dyslexia. That would also explain his awkward chuckle at any reference to the number "96".

I can't believe that they would coach to analyze the jersey numbers rather than the formation.

If they were only looking at the numbers and not at the formation, because the numbers are of utmost importance determining eligibility..........why did no one cover Hooman?
 
The Ravens were burned a year ago when offensive lineman John Urschel appeared to declare as eligible against the Cardinals, only to have his first-down catch called back because the officials did not recognize that Urschel had reported as eligible.
So now Harbaugh is mad because he tried to use eligible/ineligible formations and it didn't work for him? So therefore we have to change the rules again?

So let me get this straight... Belichick uses the tricky formation with Vereen reporting ineligible against Harbaugh, it works: Harbaugh cries and gets the rules changed. A couple years later, Harbaugh tries to use eligible/ineligible formations himself, they don't work: he cries and tries to get the rules changed again. Got it.
 
Harbawl being Harbawl.
I said it before but you would think he would get embarrassed over this but I guess he the kind of person who will fall to the ground kicking and screaming to get their way.
 
Best way to shut him up is to play BAL tough in the fall and pound their heads in. Simple as that.

I think that there are many here that somehow will look past the Ravens due to their injuries and poor record last year, but I fully expect them to bounce back to their "norm," which is often a 10-6 record and a potential playoff berth. Lighting them up this season would be awesome.
 
There is no bigger braying jackass in the NFL. nor, for that matter, anywhere on this planet.
 
I never did any research to confirm this, but people ranging from Jimmy Johnson to posters on this board have said that high schools run these plays. How can teenagers, who have to go to class full time and aren't getting paid (in theory, anyway) run this type of play on offense and recognize and defend it on defense, but John Harbaugh and the Ravens, who are doing this full time, have much more experience and are paid handsomely, can't figure it out?

This makes two consecutive off seasons that the Ravens have spent time on these plays, which are only run a handful of times each season. Last year, the Ravens were the team that ran it the most out of anyone. Harbaugh's obsession with this doesn't make any sense. 2 years ago, Mike McCarthy's team was burned by a fake FG and an onside kick. You didn't see him trying to legislate those plays afterwards. The solution is simple: Learn to recognize the cues of the eligible/ineligible plays and react when you see them, like a high school player would.
 
Hey Harbaby....I'm not buying that you're doing this "for the fans and the officials".

Pretty sure it was you who was confused during that epic night in Foxboro.

"The whole idea is to simplify this for the fans and the officials."
 
OT: How long do we have to wait before we can challenge the new moderator @Ross12 ?

I've heard that baby snakes are more venomous when they strike because they haven't learned how to control the flow of their venom. Does the same concern apply to newbie mods?
 
Why would we want to shut Harbawl up? He's comedy gold.
