The Chargers got back in the win column after Sunday's 29-27 road win over Miami in Week 6.

Here are five takeaways from Chargers Head Coach Jim Harbaugh's Monday press conference.

1. An impossible throw?

Jim Harbaugh found a little time to unwind Sunday evening as he watched a movie on the five-hour flight back to Los Angeles.

Harbaugh's flick of choice? "Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning."

It didn't take long for the Chargers Head Coach to notice similarities between Tom Cruise's character Ethan Hunt and Harbaugh's quarterback in Justin Herbert.

"I caught a little bit of that on the plane on the way back from Miami," Harbaugh said. "Ethan Hunt and Justin Herbert … people don't realize all the things that they do.

"Mission: Impossible kind of says it all. He's like Ethan Hunt," Harbaugh added about Herbert.

Harbaugh, of course, was referring to Herbert's last-minute throw against the Dolphins where he switched the ball from from his right hand to his left to avoid a fumble before shrugging off a sack and finding Ladd McConkey on a crossing route.

McConkey did the rest by slithering past a Dolphins defender and getting a key block from Hassan Haskins to help spring him for a 42-yard gain.

The Chargers would soon take the lead on Cameron Dicker's game-winning, 33-yard field goal for a narrow win that ended a two-game skid.

Harbaugh, however, initially couldn't find the words to express what it was like to watch Herbert's throw back in film review on Monday morning.

"Uhhh," Harbaugh began as he searched for the words.

"It was great," Harbaugh added with a laugh. "So great. So great. Really great."

Herbert threw for 264 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions while compiling a passer rating of 112.2 in Week 6.

"We all kind of marvel at what he does," Harbaugh said.

2. Kudos for special teams

When you win a game by two points, it's likely that a bunch of little factors go into the victory.

Such as holder JK Scott's ability to cleanly corral a wayward snap and get it down — with the laces out — in time for Dicker's game-winning kick.

"I sure did. It's what I look at when I'm watching a field goal. That's what my eyes go to," Harbaugh said when asked if he saw Scott's efforts.

"It was a great hold by him and then getting it down. As I saw him reach for it and put it down, I'm thinking, 'OK, this is going to be tough on the kicker.' Timing is thrown off a bit," Harbaugh added. "But then I'm like, 'This is Cameron Dicker we're talking about.' Then it went through and I look at the protection, it was that close. Our guys gave us just enough time."

Dicker tied a career high with five made field goals Sunday as all five attempts were 35 yards or shorter. He also hit a pair of extra points for a total of 17 points on the day.

"To get five for five on field goals, two for two on PATs ... it was a great day for that unit," Harbaugh said. "We don't win the game without that. Really good."

3. Hart, O-line step up

Credit the Chargers offensive line for stepping up under tough circumstances.

According to Pro Football Focus, Herbert was pressured on just 30 percent of his dropbacks Sunday, the lowest percentage allowed by the offensive line since Week 2.

And the Chargers did it with Bobby Hart at right tackle as the veteran was playing in his first regular-season game since Week 18 of the 2022 season.

In fact, Hart's last start before Sunday was all the way back in Week 9 of the 2021 season.

"I thought he played really good, graded out really highly, about 90 percent. I thought he acquitted himself really well," Harbaugh said of Hart.

The Chargers Head Coach then credited the entire offensive line room — players and coaches alike — for helping the Chargers navigate through injuries to that unit.

The Bolts were without starting tackles Joe Alt and Trey Pipkins III while Jamaree Salyer, another option at tackle, was also out with an injury.

"The entire offensive line really did a great job, especially the three interior guys, our starters," Harbaugh said. "Brad Bozeman, Zion Johnson — one of his best games and 100 percent on pass protection, graded out the highest of all the offensive linemen — and Mekhi Becton, really good game.

"Those three, they were stalwarts and I thought they really helped with the tackles, run blocking, pass blocking. Really good," Harbaugh continued. "Good job, give a lot of credit to [offensive line coach] Mike Devlin, [assistant offensive line coach] Nick Hardwick, [offensive assistant] Kirk Campbell and the whole entire room, the eight players that played."

4. Injury updates

Harbaugh provided a few injury updates on Monday afternoon.

Safety Elijah Molden sustained a hand injury in Week 6 and missed eight defensive snaps.

"Getting imaging," Harbaugh said.

Harbaugh was also asked about defensive lineman Da'Shawn Hand, who didn't practice last week with a groin injury and was placed on Injured Reserve on Saturday.

"We know it will be four weeks," Harbaugh said of Hand, who must miss at least four games.

Other injury updates could be coming later this week as Khalil Mack is eligible to have his 21-day practice window opened this week. The edge rusher has missed four games since sustaining an elbow injury in Week 2 against the Raiders.

And linebacker Denzel Perryman, who practiced in full on Thursday and Friday, could also soon return to the 53-man roster.

Perryman's 21-day window was opened last week and he was questionable for Week 6, but he remained on Injured Reserve.

5. A look at the defense

The Chargers had an up-and-down day on defense in Miami.

The Bolts allowed 13 points in the first half and pitched a third-quarter shutout but struggled late by allowing two fourth-quarter touchdown drives that allowed Miami to take a late lead.

"A lot of good, then the two drives at the end, would've loved that to be like the fourth quarter," Harbaugh said. "Had a fantastic third quarter and then two drives we were really on our heels on the second touchdown throughout the drive.

"We got out of place a few times and had a couple of costly penalties," Harbaugh added. "Would have liked to have finished that game ahead and clean, but I thought it was a good performance."

Overall, the Chargers allowed 341 yards on 56 plays, good for an average of 6.09 yards per play allowed.

But Miami's offense hit big plays of 49 yards (a touchdown run) along with pass plays of 45 and 22 yards that helped boost the Dolphins overall total.

If you take those three plays away, the Bolts defense gave up just 225 yards on 53 plays, a 4.25 average that would be among the league's best marks on a per-season basis.

Alas, Harbaugh said Monday that there was plenty for his team to clean up in all phases, something that is easier to stomach after a win than a loss.

"A lot of good, more good and things to work on, things to get better at," Harbaugh said. "Chipping away at being a great team. A lot of good, the great thrill of winning, great feeling of victory. Colts coming, let's get to it."

The Colts are tied with the Buccaneers for the NFL's best record heading into Week 7.
