There was some talk of Harbaugh being on the hot seat after the Ravens lost in the divisional round to the Bills last year and the AFC Championship Game to the Chiefs the year before. The contract shows that owner Steve Bisciotti has a belief that Harbaugh can get the Ravens over the hump in the AFC playoffs and win another Super Bowl.

With the move complete, here's an instant analysis of the deal.
