John Harbaugh wanted nothing to do with Mike Vrabel’s postgame handshake (Video)
By John Buhler
John Harbaugh was not down with shaking Mike Vrabel’s hand in the postgame at all.
No love is lost between John Harbaugh and Mike Vrabel these days.
After Harbaugh’s Baltimore Ravens lost at home to Vrabel’s Tennessee Titans on Sunday, the Ravens head coach refused to shake the hand of the main man of the Titans. These two AFC franchises have an interesting history and one where the other often ends the other’s postseason dreams. Clearly, there was more to this, but it was not a good look from Harbaugh at all.

Waving off a guy to not shake your hand is something Jim Harbaugh would do
Baltimore falls to 6-4 on the year, as Tennessee improves to 7-3. While the Titans could win their first division crown since 2008, Baltimore must accept it will not do any better than second place in the AFC North. The arch rival Pittsburgh Steelers are undefeated and the Cleveland Browns have a better record than them through Week 11. Frustrations are boiling over in Baltimore.

This is not the same team that went 14-2 and saw quarterback Lamar Jackson win NFL MVP. Then again, this looks like the same team who lost at home to the Titans in the AFC Divisional round as the No. 1 overall seed in January. Could these rivals meet again in January? With both clubs contending for one of seven playoff spots, they may meet again, possibly in Nashville.
Not shaking an opponent’s hand never comes across well for anybody who sees it happen.
