The best thing Tomlin did was keep LeBeau and the 3-4 and not turn it into a Cover 2 4-3 D. That is a good example of a guy coming into a situation and working well with what the team already does well and concentrating on becoming a good HC.
That's a good example of a team micromanaging in a good sense because it makes the most sense. I'm sure he didn't get to choose all his assistants and doesn't have final say over personell. Another example was what you brought up with Harbaugh and the Ravens. Baltimore is an excellent run organization and they took a chance on a guy and it is paying off.
Pittsburgh and NE get brought up as teams Clark would like to follow their model but I hope he looks close at the Ravens too.
