So apparently Rex is capable of something.

Mike Shanahan, Pete Carroll, and Marvin Lewis (no ones done more with less) are toss ups
Mike Shanahan

Wasn't talking about Rex...Tex said Jim Harbaugh was a top 5 coach. I have him rated higher

So once again I ask Tex, who are the 4 better coaches than Jim Harbaugh, cheaters don't count

That was Mangini's team, not Rex's.

Which Rex coached. Proves my point. Give him a roster and he'll coach it. SF roster is better.

Probably hard to do when he's played as poor as he has been, but it seems like his teammates still support him. If he doesn't how this soon, then he'll never show it.
and his inaccuracy and lack of pocket awareness means little?

They are the type of HCs that if they are your HC you love them, if they aren't you hate them. I am sure NE and SF fans are very pleased.
LOL

People said the same exact thing about Rex two years ago.

Not really.
Mangini had that team 8-3 before Favre tore his bicep and continued to play him finishing 9-7.

While Rex did have to deal with coaching a rookie QB, he also had some key upgrades that Mangini did not have in Bart Scott (over Eric Barton), Jim Leonhard (over David Barrett/Abram Elam), and Braylon Edwards (over a broken down Laverneus Coles). Not to mention Shonn Greene was added to Thomas Jones providing a fresh power runner late in games.

Rex's first season ended with the same 9-7 record as Mangini's the prior year. But there were 2 main differences.

1. Rex entered at 7-7 vs 2 teams that had nothing to play for- Indy laid down the second half and Cinci didnt bother showing up at all. Had both of these teams played a full game Rex could have easily finished 7-9 or 8-8 meaning no playoffs.

2. In 2009, 9-7 was good enough to make the playoffs while the same record did not qualify the Jets in 2008 and cost Mangini his Job

Unfortunately, the majority of Jets fans don't want to hear the truth.

Did Singletary draft Kaepernick and then bench Smith halfway through the season?

I actually, like some others, lost a bit of kudos that I had for JIm Harbaugh in that game. His team came out absolutely flat in the Super Bowl, like the Jets did in Pittsburgh, except the Niners had 2 weeks of rest.

His playcalling on that last drive in the red zone was horrible. You have a QB who can run at ease and a great running attack, and you call pass 4 times.

It was definitely a bad sequence of playcalls. Kaepernick always has the option to take off and run on a passing play though, and he didn't even consider it. Hard to knock him for an overall strong game, but his decision-making on those throws left a bit to be desired.

None of that compares to what Harbaugh has. And now everyone says those 'upgrades' are horrible. Yes, Brett Favre to Sanchez, that's comparable (even with a broken arm)

John Fox~~~~Those of us in Carolina know better. Not a chance in hell is he better than Jim
Mike Tomlin~~~~Was gifted quite a roster and QB from Cowher. You give Rex no credit for an inherited team, so Tomlin too doesn't deserve any respect in your book.
Tom Coughlin~~~~Yes.
I rate Jim Harbaugh as 4th best HC IMO

Yes, because Rex couldn't win 11 games and go 2-1 in the postseason. Wait a second . . .

Wrong. He should be pissed for several reasons - his lousy secondary, his brother out-coaching him - but this call wasn't one of 'em. You can list about 50 reasons his team lost the game before you got to the "blown call", and you'd still be wrong for saying it was a blown call. I could go on, but I won't.
