Jim Harbaugh, New Head Coach Of Our Chargers

[Bolt4Knob]

What are your expectations for Harbaugh’s first season?

Super Bowl?

Playoffs?

A mini rebuild, miss playoffs.

My hope is a mini rebuild that builds for sustained success...not worried about 2024
Its 2025-2028 that I want to see some winning going on

I’m sure the team’s other JH is pleased. His new coach got his previous NFL team to the Super Bowl and he just won the national Championship.

The thing that got my hope up during this was watching the newsman (greenie? The weird man that cheers NYJ) saying that he had conversation with him and he raves about Herbert (Not Allen, Not Mahomme)!!!

Go Harbaugh!!!

Bingo.

But also don't be surprised if a handful of guys we wrote off as scrubs all of a sudden make a resurgence under real coaching.

Hard to say at this point. Need to know who the GM, staff would be and how the cap situation is resolved and how quickly.

Too early and there is a lot of work to do. I expect immediate improvement on defense and in the run game that’s what I’m looking for.

" Build it and they will come"

I agree with this take.
Welcome to Los Angeles.
Where winning is tantamount.
The Charger brand is about to get molten hot.

Any news on a GM?

Go deep Justin! Woohoo!

Yep...

ANNOUNCER: "Wow, I know Harbaugh has a reputation as a run-heavy coach, but we've now seen SEVEN straight run plays, two of those for a first down...second and three...and it's PLAY ACTION...Herbert is set...ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD...he's going deep...and Davis has it...HE'S GOING ALL THE WAY! TOUCHDOWN!

Any news on a GM?

None official, we are still using the mega thread for that. My guess is that Brown is in the lead, as he just had a second interview, reportedly with Jim Harbaugh in the room.

My nap made this happen.

I had been napping too. Then I awoke and signed in to see if there was any news, must’ve been the moment Bolt-O posted this thread.

True --but I also expect to see some new players being brought in on defense.

The interior of the Dline has nobody; Bosa is probably gone, LBs need upgrades, safeties

I can see the HC/GM combo dipping into players they know - maybe veterans on one year deals or younger guys that need an opportunity

Scheme on defense - really not sure but it will be better than befoe

The OL is really where I think coaching will matter the most. The players - well they need a Center will be there - but how they are used
