LOL...Not going that far, but I do have to say that seeing what Harbaugh has done so far with Alex makes me wonder if Luck is as good as many think he is.

That said, It really makes me more confident in the direction Harbaugh and Roman are taking the offense.

Seeing luck against USC helped me form my opinion on him. He is good, but I don't think he is the 2nd coming of peyton. Btw i was being sarcastic in my first post, lol.

Watching that game tho also gave me confidense in that Offensive sytem tho. I LOVE it. INNOVATION.

I know theres alot of optimism dealing Alex but I do think Harbaugh can make something out of him..theres a reason why he brought him back..

Harbaugh's system is QB smart, not QB hiding. He puts the QB in a position to make plays when necessary but not every play. He also sets up plays within the game and from game to game much as Walsh use to do. This is so great to see.

I can see the tackle eligible play being run as a ruse to throw deep for instance. Everyone and their brother will be keying on Staley or Sopoaga and it will go fifty yards to Edwards. It is still mind boggling how much difference a coach can make! I've always believed the coach is the biggest difference but from last year to this year is even too much for me to comprehend!

I agree with that. I only say "protecting" in quotes because thats what the media keeps saying.

I think Harbaugh's system is going to change dramatically once Kaepernick is ready.

where are Josh Johnson's stats at USD?

i dont think it will change dramatically but they will take advantage of his athleticism and arm strength.

I knew we were better than we played under singleminded, but a team that might not lose more than 4 or 5 games? that's crazy how much difference the coacing did.

I'm predicting way more explosive passing plays to compliment a massive rushing attack. So excited!

Josh Johnson was CLEARLY better than everyone he played against. He's the ALL-TIME highest rated QB in college football history.

He only played a few games as a Freshman, but in his first full season as a starter....

Josh Johnson: 334 Att, 236 Comp, 70.7 Comp%, 2881 Yards, 31 TDs, 8 INTs, 117.86 NFL QB Rating

Wow....and thats not even cloe to his best year. Thats just his FIRST as a starter.

As a Senior his NFL QB rating would be 138.67.

Hopefully we'll just get better as the season moves along. Having Crabs and Edwards healthy should help. Having both of them develop a report with Smith should open some things up for VErnon too.
