John Harbaugh has a myopic focus this week: Beating the the Los Angeles Chargers in the first round of the AFC playoffs.
So, it’s been an exercise in futility trying to get him to comment about his future with the franchise.
Here are the topics Harbaugh will gladly discuss with the media:
— Running
— Tackling
— Passing
— Blocking
Harbaugh will talk all day about the X’s and O’s of football.
Here are the topics sure to catch the coach’s ire:
— His potential contract extension
— The overall future with the franchise
— The advantage/disadvantage of facing the Chargers twice in 11 days
— Any comparison questions
So, any discussion about the direction of the Ravens for the 2019 season and beyond will have to wait.
