Staley survives that awful loss

No Sean Payton for LAC. Ha!

You pretty much knew that was a foregone conclusion once they announced Staley was coming back.

You couldn't bring back that offensive coaching staff with the same HC...

They should hire Todd Haley to replace him.

They'll be the preseason AFC West champs no matter who they hire.

I'm just thrilled they're keeping Wile E. Coyote as their head coach. I love that guy! LMAO

Justified. However Staley deserves to be fired as well. Comes down to money and Spanos isn't going to spend.

I miss seeing games on TV in San Diego. Plenty of sun. The field was pretty. Now they play in that architectural graveyard as if it's -20 below in Los Angeles during the winter.

Nobody is happier to see Staley retained than us.

Boy wonder gets to stick around to neuter Herbie even more. Gotta love it

San Diego and to a lesser extent St. Louis are the NFLs new threats when they want to extort a new stadium from taxpayers.

I hope Staley signs a fully guaranteed 20 year extension!!!!

I'm of the belief that if a team has the QB and is loaded with talent, just about any position coach can learn a playbook, create some wrinkles for the personnel on the team, and be an okay OC that doesn't stick out as in need of being fired. You don't have to be some mad scientist Al Saunders for people not to demand your head at the end of the year. Just be organized, lead the practices like you would your position groups, and the guys will typically take care of the rest.

Example: Nathaniel Hackett was a shitty OC elsewhere, but paired with the Rodgers/Adams combo, and he looked like a respectable OC. People were thinking Freddie Kitchens did a good job as interim OC that one year before he flopped as a head coach.

Lombardi had plenty of experience as a QB coach. He had a system with talented players and a pretty damn good QB. There is ZERO reason why he shouldn't have been able to make that crap work more effectively.

I think Lombardi got lobbed under the bus. The playcalling isn’t ideal but I think justin Herbert isn’t the golden boy everyone so badly wants him to be. Tremendous talent but I doesn’t have that “over my dead body” mentality.

How the hell did Staley survive that loss? 27-0 lead, +5 in turnovers, and lose the game?

Chargers chargering hard keeping that dipshit.
