Live from Southern California, this is the Jim Rome show.

The fact, what I want to do is I want to start today's show the same way I started the week.

If you remember back to the NFL whip on Monday morning, I warned you that this take was coming.

Right after I asked you to, and I quote,

show me your lightning bolt.

Follow me on this.

Monday, I focused on the Bengals,

bangling harder than the Chargers, Chargered on Sunday night football.

But there's also no denying that any and every other Charger team in recent memory does not walk away from that game with a dub.

It's pretty undeniable at this point that, well, this is a charger take off the top,

but equally undeniable at this point that there is something different about the so-called

Har Bolts, the Harbolts, even if it's really hard for me to understand exactly how this is

working so well, so fast.

Like, I had a pretty good sense that he would come in and turn it around, but not this quickly.

You see, the football part of it is not that hard to understand.

That's actually pretty obvious.

I mean, the guy has succeeded everywhere he's been, Harbaugh, as a player, as a coach, especially as a coach.

So it's not that that's so surprising.

But what is surprising is how he's doing it.

Like quirky, kooky.

He's always been different.

Now he's just flat out like weird.
