Jim Harbaugh, the head coach of the San Francisco 49ers commended his team for staging a late-game comeback before losing to the Baltimore Ravens 34-31 in Super Bowl XLVII.

Harbaugh was questioned about the play-calling in the 49ers' last sequence. San Francisco had first-and-goal from the 7, but after a 2-yard run, the team threw three straight times to Crabtree, all incomplete.

"Second down was an option," Harbaugh said, "and Colin passed. We were right on the brink of winning it. It was a heck of a football game."
