Former Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh, now entering his second season with the Los Angeles Chargers, joined Pro Football Talk and was asked about J.J. McCarthy, the second-year Vikings quarterback who helped Harbaugh win a national title in Ann Arbor.<\/p>\n
\u201cI mean, love J.J. McCarthy,\u201d Harbaugh said. \u201cHe\u2019s someone that\u2019s so much like [Chargers quarterback] Justin Herbert, in the way that the energy that they bring. They\u2019re tone setters. J.J.\u2019s a tone setter, brings the energy.<\/p>\n
\u201cGreat talent, and every fiber of his being is about helping his team. And it\u2019s just like Justin. Justin is a perfectionist, as well. Him and J.J. are the same that way. They want to be good; they want to be great, and it\u2019s not in a self promotion way that they want to be good for themselves. They want to be great for their teammates. <\/p>\n
\u201cIn great hands. J.J. has attacked his rehab the entire last six, seven months, and I can guarantee Vikings fans that he is up and at it already today, attacking the day with an enthusiasm unknown to mankind. And I love him. I\u2019m not gonna love playing against him. We\u2019re gonna be playing the Vikings this year.\u201d<\/p>\n
