The Harbaugh Bowl

This up coming thanksgiving holds a huge match up between the San Francisco 49ers and the Baltimore Ravens. With the two brothers going head to head in week 11, this game is now becoming known as the Harbaugh Bowl. The Harbaugh brothers are the first pair of brothers to become Head Coaches for NFL teams in NFL history. After being the head coach for the University of Stanford, he had four successful years at the school and was offered jobs to the big leagues. Head coach of the San Francisco 49ers, Jim Harbaugh, signed a five year 25 million dollar contract with San Fran and even though this is Jim's first year coaching in the NFL is has done more then just prove himself. The 49ers finished the 2010 NFL season with a losing record of 6-10, but since Jim Harbaugh took over the 49ers are sitting on a 8-1 record which is the second best record in the NFL right now. (Following the undefeated Packers 9-0) Even though Jim Harbaugh is having success he is about to face his biggest challenge facing the 6-3 Baltimore Ravens lead by head coach John Harbaugh. After coaching the defensive backs and special teams coach for the Philadelphia Eagles for nine years, John Harbaugh signed with the Ravens in 2008. I really wish he never left or that he would come back to replace Reid but that will never happen. Anyway, I cannot wait to watch this match up on thanksgiving night after I stuff my face and sit on my ass.
