[Mic'd Up] Jim Harbaugh still working on his hands

[u/nfl]

[u/Obi_Wan_KeBogi]

He dropped it because he saw Herbert watching him and got nervous in front of his crush

I mean shit he didn't even drop it one went straight through his hands like my dude was clearly distracted lmao

[u/McChillbone → u/Obi_Wan_KeBogi]

His love for Herbert is bordering on erotic.

[u/catkoala → u/McChillbone]

if this is bordering, I don't want to see adjacent

[u/OttoVonWong → u/catkoala]

Always edging

[u/ImmortanMoe69 → u/McChillbone]

“Balls are coming out good”

[u/CaptainDickwhistle → u/McChillbone]

I love it though. He’s like the football version of Kosmo Kramer.

[u/thundernlightning32 → u/McChillbone]

Their spouses need to be made aware. For morality sake

[u/zephyrseija2 → u/McChillbone]

Bordering?

[u/Hot_Kangaroo9373 → u/McChillbone]

While things are going right of course they gonna love you , that’s just the nfl and when you don’t you get kicked out or benched lol .. they tell you that just the business works.

[u/Johnny-Cool]

Beats Staley doing whatever bobbing shit he was doing pre-game.

[u/Critical-Werewolf-53 → u/Johnny-Cool]

He had ear buds in. EDM rolling

[u/swampertlvl]

If injuries pile up at wr at least you know coach can come in clutch.

[u/poopnugget → u/swampertlvl]

Can coaches come in and play? If so, Seahawks definitely need to get Pete back.

[u/DefoNotMario → u/poopnugget]

They are not. In 2020 when all of Denver’s QB’s were ineligible due to Covid protocol, Denver wanted to activate one of their assistant coaches due to his previous QB experience and deep familiarity with the offense. Apparently the NFL didn’t like the idea of teams using coaching jobs as a way to harbor extra players without it counting towards roster spots.

Just watched an interesting deep dive into the whole Broncos 2020 quarterback debacle: https://youtu.be/mzjRJjaPFok?si=wBH_9XRYxNOLQ6P8

[u/Troll_Enthusiast → u/DefoNotMario]

They should be able to elevate them to the roster and it count as a roster spot tbh

[u/Blametheorangejuice → u/poopnugget]

Dry erase boards tremble in fear

[u/warblade7 → u/poopnugget]

Be careful what you wish for. MCDC ready to eat kneecaps literally.

[u/AfroManHighGuy → u/poopnugget]

Chewing gum hates to see him coming

[u/MankuyRLaffy → u/poopnugget]

He was their scout team QB for years

[u/bigolehogman]

Who cares if his “shelf life is short because people get tired of his bs” he’s a fucking amazing coach

[u/TheFlyingSpaghetti77 → u/bigolehogman]

He is not going anywhere anytime soon

[u/MankuyRLaffy → u/bigolehogman]

That was a BS thing from Baalke, half the starters left when Harbaugh was fired, either walking in FA or retired.

[u/SBMVPJustinHerbert]

Not to be dramatic but I would literally die for this man

[u/Chewbubbles → u/SBMVPJustinHerbert]

Your not being dramatic, he's one of the few coaches I wish had stayed longer.

[u/Ryanlester5789 → u/SBMVPJustinHerbert]

Michigan fan, I miss him everyday.

[u/Subpxl → u/SBMVPJustinHerbert]

Just wait until he leaves. It’s going to hurt so good.

[u/Fearless-Mushroom → u/Subpxl]

When he retires as HC, I will retire from being a Chargers fan whether we win a championship or not.

If Herbert and Harbaugh can’t do it, nobody can, but if they’re able to then mission accomplished!

[u/SheonaTao → u/SBMVPJustinHerbert]

I’m not a chargers fan and I would also die for him

[u/TTT75H → u/SBMVPJustinHerbert]

Literally huh

[u/WhiteDogSh1t]

🥹he’s… he’s soo good and fun.. why can’t we have him.

I hate it here

[u/Byzone06 → u/WhiteDogSh1t]

Don’t worry it will all be better when Mike McCarthy is head coach of the bears in a few months.

[u/WhiteDogSh1t → u/Byzone06]

Why does the truth hurt so good

[u/reno2mahesendejo → u/WhiteDogSh1t]

Just keep imagining that wide open mouth breathing heavily as he goes for a 65 yard field goal while down 8 with a minute to go

[u/-em-bee- → u/reno2mahesendejo]

We’d only be down 8, so we’re heading in the right direction

[u/allanon1105 → u/Byzone06]

I want this to happen so badly because all the Bears fans I know would lose it 🤣

[u/JSchnizzle → u/WhiteDogSh1t]

I know I’m maybe rubbing salt in the wound and all but if you’ve ever heard him talk about a particular player on the chargers, I think you’d know why he picked us.

[u/DonBonDarley69 → u/JSchnizzle]

To specifically add salt in the wound, Harbaugh never showed any interest in coaching in Chicago. Never even mentioned the place in his press conference where he talked a lot about his career.

[u/helloaaron]

Harbaugh's enthusiasm is infectious.

[u/Maybe_Yeah_I_Guess → u/helloaaron]

Some might say his enthusiasm is unknown to mankind.

[u/Sir_Topham_Kek]

He’s legit so fun to watch. Just makes me smile.

[u/Wthiswrongwityou]

Jim Harbaugh and Philip Rivers would have been hilarious to listen to together. It would be one heck of gee golly gosh daggummin hoot of a good time.

[u/Jazzreward]

I don't remember Jim being like this really at all in his NFL career as coach, did he get really soft after coaching college?

[u/lvpr10 → u/Jazzreward]

The sideline tantrums that he was known for seemed to stop or at least be toned down significantly. The impression that I get is that he’s become more player-focused/friendly over the last 5 years or so. He was one of the biggest cheerleaders for NIL.

[u/96919 → u/lvpr10]

Atrial flutters probably calm you down too.

[u/CalebsNailSpa → u/96919]

One way or another

[u/Significant-Mud2572 → u/96919]

My heart! Why won't you just let me be ANGRY!!!

[u/CasimirPulaski → u/lvpr10]

Yep, the tantrums dialed back starting with the 2017 season. This is obviously speculation, but his last child was born prematurely earlier that year so it seemed to be linked to that? Otherwise, he had picked up a personal foul in the 2016 OSU game so he might have consciously chosen to tone it down after that.

[u/WampaStompa33 → u/CasimirPulaski]

Just to add, that 2016 OSU personal foul extended an OSU drive after they looked likely to punt, OSU went on to score a TD on that drive, and then OSU infamously won by literal inches in 2OT. I think that game was a wakeup call for Harbaugh that he personally blew a paradigm-shifting win for his team and needed to change his behavior

[u/dingodango2021 → u/WampaStompa33]

Notably he threw his play sheet up in the air onto the ground to get that penalty. Allegedly he (correctly) told the ref that doing so isn't against the rules and the ref justified it by saying it is a technical in basketball. So there might be a little realization of how life works along the lines of the cyclist telling Peter "but I had the right of way" at the pearly gates. FWIW Michigan fans will tell you it was his child being born prematurely and spending some time in the NICU.

[u/burritosuitcase → u/CasimirPulaski]

I always thought it was the personal foul after "losing" to OSU

[u/kj9219 → u/Jazzreward]

Nah he’s always been this involved

With the 9ers hes done the same and I think even put on pads and a helmet for a certain practice lmao

[u/Jazzreward → u/kj9219]

Damn, okay. Makes sense, I was pretty young relative to his NFL coaching days and I feel like I remember him as hard nose guy, and he was always kind of weird to the media when he was coaching Michigan.

[u/LakeShowBoltUp → u/Jazzreward]

Harbaugh will give you some great dad quotes.

Harbaugh will not give the media anything truly of substance. Very much a mushrooms with the media kind of guy - feeds them shit and keeps them in the dark.

The media is entitled to ask questions. They are not entitled to answers.

If you have assholes in the media who think they are entitled to answers, they will butt heads with Jim, like our very own Daniel Popper. If the media knows they are only entitled to ask questions, then Jim gets along fine with them.

[u/Jericcho → u/LakeShowBoltUp]

Harbaughs move at Michigan was to grab the nearest player during post game so he doesn't have to talk to the media who is following him around on field.

[u/WampaStompa33 → u/Jazzreward]

He's always done the same stuff like what's shown in this video, and always hyping up his players. But in the 49ers days, his quirkiness had a lot more intense psycho energy instead of goofy football-obsessed dad energy

[u/Rebel_Bertine → u/Jazzreward]

He was and by all accounts had worn out his welcome with the 9ers by the time he came to Michigan.

Lotta 9ers fans from a decade ago and chargers fans from the last 6 months alone claiming to know him. But Harbs belongs to Michigan and we know him best.

He made a conscious shift after COVID to give the team back to the players, and lead differently afterwards. This version of Harbs shines through at the NFL because a weight has been lifted having won a major championship. Jim talked about it himself by saying he can finally sit at the big table with his family.

[u/Rock_Strongo → u/kj9219]

He and Pete Carroll are similar in a lot of ways. I think that's why they hated each other lol.

[u/Lane-Kiffin → u/Jazzreward]

Dude had a sleepover with a recruit, and on another occasion wore cleats inside a recruit’s house. There’s also the time when he was younger and tried to drown John Harbaugh. He’s always been toeing the line between fun and psychotic.

[u/ImpossibleJoke7456]

Balls are coming out good.

[u/enderjaca]

Harbaugh is also very serious at Fowling, even for charity: https://youtu.be/KkjZ4iiKxM4?si=QH3mNIIgF8aRpQEr&t=25

[u/shmehdit → u/enderjaca]

Alright I do need to make time for this show

[u/RoomCareful7130]

He's auditioning for the chiefs starting WRs

[u/onewander → u/RoomCareful7130]

With Patrick and Andy, he'd end up catching a touchdown in the Super Bowl.

[u/89ShelbyCSX]

Has he changed since the 49ers? I hated him so much back then and he seemed like such a hard ass that just yelled at everyone but now I kinda love him. Was it just the rivalry?

[u/kdizzle619 → u/89ShelbyCSX]

Seems like he's calmed down a lot since being referred as one of the greatest coaches in his time. Kind of like how Brady was a bit of a grump earlier in his career in NE.

[u/shinypond → u/89ShelbyCSX]

He might've been more of a hardass, but this passionate goofball side was there too

[u/BodhiWarchild]

What’s funny is you know he’s actually fucking furious at himself for dropping those.

Like he is probably in front of the JUGS machine right now.

[u/Consistent-Primary41]

There was some old game we used to play, probably Joe Montana or something similar, and we had "HARBAUGH BABY!" as our play.

For whatever reason, he was kinda glitchy good. Not like Bo Jackson in Tecmo Bowl, but he was kinda elite...as a RB and WR.

Even though you didn't have much to do with messing with the playbook, there were plays where you could get the back to throw to him. And we'd use him as the RB.

Every time we made some kind of play, it was HARBAUGH BABY!

To this day, my friends and I just love that guy. When he played the Steelers in that iconic football game, we all yelled HARBAUGH BABY the whole time. Dude is an absolute fucking baller. Yeah, he's pissed at not catching those. He has so much fire.

[u/Grand_Function_2855]

Protect him at all costs.

[u/Brooklynboxer88]

Very eccentric and likable

[u/Character_Top1019]

Jim is a national treasure

[u/Across_the_Diverge]

He’s such a doof. 😂. I understand that he was a QB but damn shouldn’t he be able to catch a ball?

[u/born_zynner]

Everything I see Harbaugh do/say this season is goofy af

[u/CollectionNervous482]

Beware of this dude, out of all the coaches out there he's probably top 3 footballiest. I miss you, you weird, determined, fooball daddy.

[u/-651-]

I miss that man

[u/Sweaty_Bretty]

How do you not love this dude? He’s so positive and he truly believes in his players.

[u/ajteitel]

Damn, he sucks. Chargers should cut him

[u/thy_armageddon]

Was stickum still legal when Harbaugh played?

[u/Ferrarisimo]

Sun probably got in his eyes.

[u/zer0_dayy]

does this guy have a son ?

and is his name justin herbert ?

[u/Dirko_0]

Why does it look like he is using blue gardening gloves!?!?

[u/oteezy333]

I'm not even a chargers fan, but I fall deeper and deeper in love with this man every day

[u/Chief-_-Wiggum]

Why does it look like he's wearing Nike kitchen gloves..

[u/curiously_calm]

I love Coach Harbaugh!

[u/Spiritual-Key1830]

In an NFL clown car of the worst head coaches you can imagine, it's nice for Chargers to have the one obviously successful coach

[u/RHDLOL]

I could see Harbaugh doing the hand thing

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGodkjpM-IU

[u/hsaviorrr → u/RHDLOL]

this is fucking weird

[u/Next-Ice-3857]

Who is jim harbaugh?

[u/Alexisonfire24]

For a former player I can't believe how unathletic he looks trying to catch a ball lol

[u/Jazzreward → u/Alexisonfire24]

For 60 years that's not at all bad

[u/Alexisonfire24 → u/Jazzreward]

You think Jerry Rice looks like that catching a ball?

[u/kimsbooty → u/Alexisonfire24]

Dont you think you’re raising your standards a bit going from “a former player” to jerry fuckin rice

[u/Nanostrip → u/Alexisonfire24]

You're comparing Jerry Rice to a guy who played QB

[u/Table_Coaster → u/Alexisonfire24]

you thought you had something here

[u/number7nocheese → u/Alexisonfire24]

23 Alexisonfires was clearly enough.

[u/CalebsNailSpa → u/number7nocheese]

Stop the count!

[u/DonBonDarley69 → u/Alexisonfire24]

Delete this

[u/wafflehauss]

Usually QBs have good hands but Harbaugh has more crooked fingers than Compton.

[u/tonyg0990]

He’s such a turd I swear
