Following the game winning kick by Shaun Suisham the cameras showed Harbaugh approaching Tomlin at midfield for the customary exchange between head coaches. As the two got closer to one another, Harbaugh said, “Congratulations” to Tomlin, who appeared to already be looking toward Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco as the two shook hands.

Tomlin appeared to be quickly heading off when Harbaugh yelled out Tomlin to get his attention while still having hold of his hand. The two came back together quickly and Harbaugh said something else to Tomlin to which he replied, “Thank you, good job” before heading back off in the opposite direction.

As Tomlin went off Harbaugh appeared to be giving the Steelers head coach a mad stare.
