Nearly 11 years ago, Jim Harbaugh lost to his brother. Four shots in the end zone was all they required to lift the Lombardi Trophy, for Jim Harbaugh to be called the best head coach in the NFL. However, the vaunted Ravens’ defense routed the Niners, and it was John Harbaugh flaunting the ring. Since then, winning the Super Bowl was an unsatiated desire.

While it might seem that Harbaugh stalled from his dream, he was only forging himself to lift the Super Bowl. Now, with him taking over the reins of the Chargers, winning the Super Bowl is reported to be his bullseye by many. This target is often the less-talked-about reason for Jim Harbaugh parting his ways with his alma mater, Michigan.

The reason behind Jim Harbaugh’s reluctance towards Michigan’ is assumed to be primarily because of the impending catastrophe of the NCAA investigations surrounding the sign-stealing fiasco. But, ESPN’s Matt Barrie thinks it was just 20% of the bigger issue. “Jim Harbaugh’s ego can’t handle two things. One that he’s never won a Super Bowl, and two: his brother has,” opined Barrie.

After the SB showdown at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, John Harbaugh had said, “No greater coach in the NFL than Jim Harbaugh,” and it seemed an appreciation for a fellow coach more than an appreciation for his younger sibling. However, has stayed with Jim Harbaugh since then. Now it seems that Harbaugh is back in the league to prove the statement yet again. However, his brother John Harbaugh would still be a fierce contender for him.

John Harbaugh continues to guide the Ravens

It was in 2008 that John Harbaugh overtook the head coaching duties of the Baltimore Ravens. Thus far, the Ravens have established themselves a divisional leader 5 times, winning the ring once in 2012. Currently, the franchise is the AFC North Champions, gearing for the title of NFL Champions ahead of the Super Bowl against the City Chiefs.

Even Barrie believed that “By the time next season starts, there is a possibility that John Harbaugh has two Super Bowl trophies.” This possibility might also pose a competitive threat to Jim Harbaugh. With John Harbaugh’s SB strong possibility, Jim Harbaugh is busy devising an ultimate plan for the Chargers.
