    Default Billick...

    His teams hardly ever blew a second-half lead. Harbaugh's squads are making it a bigger and bigger habit.

    I know many will chuckle... but I think Billick would have won a SB by now with Flacco at QB. Any time he had remotely decent QB play, they won.

    Billick has a world class defense most of the time he was here. THAT'S why.

    Do I have to remind you of the 2004 collapse at home against the Bengals when they blew a 20-3 lead? Billick had better defenses to work with, it doesn't matter anyway since he may never coach in the NFL again. I don't like Harbaugh anymore but lets not put Billick on some pedalstal. I hate to say this but maybe we should start looking at Ozzie at lot more closely, the offense struggled under Billick and now Harbaugh.

    That's always the game folks point to for an example of Billick's teams losing a lead. Because they were so, so few.

    Harbaugh's tenure is building up more and more such heart-breakers...
