"They are both energetic and entertaining football lifers. They have made their marks over the past few decades as high-profile coaches, both in college and in the NFL. They have won at almost every stop, lifting every team. I bet we could have been really good friends, Harbaugh said of Carroll. Harbaugh and the Chargers and Carroll and the Raiders meet on Monday night in Las Vegas, a chance to renew an acquaintance that goes back years,"
"Harbaugh's journey from his start as an assistant coach with the then-Oakland Raiders to the University of San Diego to Stanford to the San Francisco 49ers to Michigan to the Chargers has been a lengthy one, following a standout career as a college and NFL quarterback, including with the Chargers. Carroll's trek has been equally fascinating, from a halting start with the New York Jets to the New England Patriots to a career rejuvenation with USC that featured a 97-19 record over nine seasons"
