Coach Staley Discussion - Fired

[FoutsFan]

Didn't we beat the 8-4 Dolphins? Or do you mean they have to have a winning record right at this moment?

Shhhh, you are not supposed to notice these things, or look them up.

[Trumpet Man]

Those no longer count, brah. Even if they were technically a winning team today, how about the last decade? Century? Stop cherry picking to fluff Lombo’s sack.

DeAndre Carter needs 5 more yards to set a never before seen Chargers record.

6 (S-I-X) Chargers receivers are about to surpass 500 yards

Only the 2011 Saint performed this feat prior

Herbert - Staley - Lombardi will be tied to this record FOREVER if DeAndre Carter gets 5 yards (he has 495 yards).

Facts matter.

Playoffs

BTFU

Nothing has changed. Can't fix stupid and hard headed. Was hoping he could learn on the job. Nope.

JH is great
Our Defense still sucks against the run, etc.
TT is still TT
Spanos still means CHARGERLING

Another great QB will be wasted by this organization. So sad.

We haven’t even played a playoff game, yet people are throwing in the towel. This place is unreal at times.

I am adding to the hysteria as best I can.

Per Popper MW couldn’t walk on his own out of the lockerroom.

Yup....

Typical forum over-reactions.

All forums do it.

You just got to know when to add a little gasoline, light the match, grab a seat and enjoy.

Fans are crazy enough to offer up a testicle for a Lombardi - Go Figure ?

Bandy or (a) bust (of Lance Alworth to throw to).

The bottom line is IF we beat the Jags next week Staley has turned the corner here and is a successful NFL HC and I'm happy for him, HOWEVER if we lose next week and the game isn't close there is enough coupled with the denver game to justify not retaining him for next season, and offering the job to Payton or Harbaugh! I don't want to hear Spanos would never pay for these HC's. Being in LA is a different sort of thing, look what the Chargers paid for JC Jackson.

Personally I would like to see Staley win this playoff game because he is a young coach and it would be nice to have a winning culture. If we were to lose though I would have no problem seeing a HC like Payton or Harbaugh stepping in because I know for a fact they both know how to win games with a talented squad.

You may not want to hear it but it's true. They were in LA when they hired Staley. Paying the HC isn't part of the salary cap and comes from Deans bottom line and can pay whatever he wants. He hasn't ever paid top dollar for a HC.....ever! You expecting him to commit now isn't realistic. you have been seeing what he wants to pay.

He doesn't have the money to do that while the Brinks truck loaded Walmart family and the Jags owner say they will pay whatever it takes. Because they can!

Win or lose for me doesn't change anything. He is learning and he will be imo a very good HC going forward. I just hate that we always get the growing pains, save for Marty who Alex Spanos hired. And even then I think Washington paid his salary from them on top of what we were paying him.
