This is true, for the first time in years. Was it at least partially due to Staley's resting regulars during the preseason games?

I think what’s frustrating was how even though the run defense was a problem at the beginning of the year, we also did well limiting points until the Browns game. The Texans game was horrible but I thought it just showed our lack of depth defensively. We seemed back to the defense that Staley wanted against the Broncos. So I thought we would be able to handle the Raiders. It seemed that way at first but it feels like that Roberts fumble opened the floodgates.

Tho not widely listed at various NFL sites, if there are “hot seat” GM lists, TT has gotta be on a few. Usually it’s HC hot seats you read about.
About the GM position, don’t the Spanos’ have their own little scouting team and have input on TT’s picks? If so…hmm,lol. Jerry Jones is the king of owner dabblers.
In a parrrell universe… News read. “Brandon Staley is chosen as the Chargers new Defensive Coordinator.”
Not totally against a DC being hired as HC, per se. Former Charger DC Ron Rivera was/is still coaching. Rivera coached the Panthers in Super Bowl 50. The Panthers fell to the Denver Broncos by a score of 24–10.[Last edited by Caslon; 01-11-2022, 09:41 PM.

Our record would have been more like Detroit's or Jaguars if we didn't have Herbert. That's how bad I perceive Staley's failure to improve the one thing he was hired to do. If we had gone 4-13 both Mr. Staley and Mr. Telesco would be looking for new jobs Today!
:wtf2:
If Lynn or McCoy were the coach they would have lost Washington, Cleveland, the first KC games for sure
maybe they win the second KC game. Maybe.
Name the three games they lost to gross mismanagement. Houston - the one where the run defense couldn't stop a cold.

4 football players stand out in the 1st round in the coming draft that look like they could fill a need on our team and start day 1.
1. Trevor Penning OT Could start at RT day one looks like he has the attitude and work ethic needed, could maybe trade down a few spots to get him as well.
2. Jordan Davis DT Reminds me of Jamal Williams and could start day 1.
3. Charels Cross OT Probably a LT but he could be a great RT.
4. Brandon Smith LB Could probably trade down and get him and could be a good replacement for #9

I like Davis but is he right for Staley. Davis is a big man who can eat up space but he also needs to be able to stay on the field
Other names that have come up are the WRs like Jameson Williams and Olave. With Williams getting ACL - he might not be ready. Chargers need a Day 1 starter or at worst big time contributor.

No, to an inside linebacker in the first round or two....the biggest swing of them all for Telesco (or most).
Its not as important in Staley's D as other positions, and Tranquil/White (if resigned) will get better - they've hardly played the position in college/pros.
Sometimes that inexperience/lack of instinct has shown up.
I'd consider one on day 3.....i've heard here that Chad Muma / jo jo Domaine are good and might be available later

I agree about Davis: Davis neither fits Staley or Telesco's vision of their fantasy tackle.
Telesco, from the Polian tree, prefers 1- gap penetrators and quicker d-lineman.
