Los Angeles Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh handled his medical scare during Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos in a way only he could.

Simply put, Harbaugh found the humor in the whole thing.

According to ESPN's Kris Rhim, Harbaugh told reporters after the 23-16 AFC West win that he felt strange the night before and attributed the strange story on Sunday to an “atrial flutter” that coaches helped him overcome. to overcome.

While doing so, Harbaugh made sure to tell reporters that he was “2-0 with cardiac arrhythmias” and was absolutely “medically qualified to talk about it.” On that earlier point, Harbaugh said he had experienced this in the past, it was the third “episode” since 1999. He said he used it to win a game during his time with the San Francisco 49ers – he recalled a Monday night game against Chicago in 2012 in particular that featured a big game from Colin Kaepernick.

This “medically qualified to talk about it” dig is particularly funny because Harbaugh had said the exact opposite the day before when discussing the strange injury saga that landed a Chargers player on injured reserve.

On a serious note, Harbaugh said he would discuss this with the doctors and is otherwise feeling fine; Undoubtedly the big division win also played a role in the good mood.
