Los Angeles Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh is reveling in his return to the NFL after a successful stint at the collegiate level with Michigan.

"After being on the field for a day with the players, I realized the culture is already set here," Harbaugh said. "These guys have been doing the dirty work."
Harbaugh emphasized that he feels fortunate to be leading such a dedicated and talented group of individuals.
"I realized early on, I'm the lucky one to be here. This is the best darn job I've ever had," he stated.
Harbaugh attributed the Chargers' strong culture to the contributions of the entire organization, but he reserved special praise for quarterback Justin Herbert.
"First time you watch him throw, the talent is there in every single way," Harbaugh said of Herbert. "The athletic ability. The work ethic."
"Nobody works harder than Justin Herbert on our team. [He's as] smart as they come … Everything about him. He's a fierce competitor. He really has it all," Harbaugh added.
Herbert had a solid performance in the season opener, completing 17 of 26 passes for 144 yards and a touchdown.
Another player who impressed Harbaugh was running back J.K. Dobbins, who rushed for 135 yards and a touchdown.
"J.K. played for my brother … it's like family," Harbaugh said. "And my dad said it. He said, 'I've been watching J.K. through training camp …. J.K.'s back to where he was and maybe even a little better [than] before the injury.'"
Harbaugh expressed his excitement about the potential of Dobbins, who is making his comeback after an Achilles injury last season.
"J. K. all day," Harbaugh exclaimed.
Harbaugh attributed his positive demeanor to the Chargers' winning start.
"I really love winning … Not a lot of better feelings than that," he concluded.
The Chargers will face the Carolina Panthers in their next game on September 15 in Charlotte, North Carolina.
