Despite star quarterback Justin Herbert being unquestionably one of the best players in the league, he hasn't been able to lead the Chargers to the sort of playoff success that would typically come with a player of his caliber.
This offseason, Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh hired former Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel as his new offensive coordinator, guaranteeing, if nothing else, that this would be an interesting season, with the Chargers pairing two of the league's most eccentric personalities.
Eccentric as they may be, it's hard to deny that Harbaugh and McDaniel are anything other than two of the sharpest minds in football, with Fox Sports ***** yst Colin Cowherd going as far as to say that Harbaugh has a case as the greatest football coach of all time.
"If you count college and pro, I would make an argument today, the greatest coach in the history of football is not Bill Belichick or Bill Walsh or Vince Lombardi. It's Jim Harbaugh. The greatest coach ever," Cowherd said. "Think about this, he's never failed. He's five for five. At San Diego, Stanford, San Francisco 49ers, Michigan and the Chargers, he's never failed."
Now, Harbaugh is making a similarly bold statement about his quarterback.
