Former NFL QB says Jim Harbaugh is crazy – in a good way

The culture of Los Angeles Chargers completely changed in less than a calendar year. Since the hiring of Jim Harbaugh, a new identity has been imposed on the Chargers, one that fits the “old-school” mentality of football.

Harbaugh’s Chargers are 7-4 and in excellent position to make the playoffs. They have exceeded expectations so far, coming off a 5-12 campaign in 2023. Chris Simms jumped on the Dan Patrick Show to discuss the state of the Chargers and what Harbaugh has brought to the organization in just 12 weeks.

“He’s crazy in a good way,” Simms said of Harbaugh. “He’s all about football, his social skills are definitely different. He’s a really good guy.”

Simms detailed how he and Harbaugh were initially on bad terms when he was head coach of the San Francisco 49ers and how their relationship has strengthened since. With the way Harbaugh has injected his coaching style into this Chargers team, more praise like this is in store.
