NFL analyst Jarrett Bailey had this to say about the possibility of Harbaugh coming on board with the Chargers:

“We’ll start with arguably the most sought after job getting filled with one of the most sought after candidates. There’s something to be said about Harbaugh winning everywhere he goes. He made Stanford a winner, he made the 49ers a Super Bowl team, and he won a National Championship with Michigan.

“The Chargers need an established winner because, frankly, they don’t have anyone that knows what it’s like to win consistently in the building. The defense needs fixing, as they finished 24th in EPA this season. Don’t be shocked if Harbaugh brings his defensive coordinator from Michigan, Jesse Minter, up with him. Harbaugh has a history of winning which is what that team, and that quarterback, desperately need.”
