Jim Harbaugh is cooking!
Los Angeles Chargers running back J.K. Dobbins He ran for 135 yards that day and scored a 12-yard touchdown to lead the Bolts to the victory. 22-10 come-from-behind victory Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders. Plus, it was a win for Jim Harbaugh in his official return to the NFL and a successful debut as the Chargers' head coach.

Dobbins had all 10 of his carries in the second half. It was the fifth time Dobbins, who signed a one-year deal with Los Angeles after starting his career with the Baltimore Ravens in the offseason, has rushed for 100 yards in a single game.
As for Harbaugh's quarterback position, Justin Herbert Herbert was average, finishing with just 144 yards (17-of-26) and a touchdown, but the win could still be seen as a bit of revenge for Herbert, who was coming off a 63-21 loss to the Raiders last season that led to the firing of then-head coach Brandon Staley and general manager Tom Telesco. Those moves paved the way for Harbaugh's hiring after a scandal-ridden year in which he won a national championship with the Michigan Wolverines.

Well, yeah, the Raiders, it's always good to start the year (and your tenure) 1-0, and while it makes Jim Harbaugh happy, I'm curious to see how this stacks up against the actual talent.
