LOS ANGELES, CA – The Los Angeles Chargers officially parted ways with Head Coach Brandon Staley following a 63-21 loss on Thursday Night Football during a divisional clash in Las Vegas. The loss was the last straw for Staley, whose tenure will be remembered by a mismanaged “win-and-in” situation in 2021, a blown 27-point lead to the Jaguars in the 2022 playoffs, and multiple wasted years of Justin Herbert’s prime. However, the franchise is optimistic this won’t be the last time a leader manages to fumble away some of the best talent in the NFL. “This is simply Chargers football,” said owner Dean Spanos. “Look at who we’ve had in this building before. Drew Brees, LaDanian Tomlinson, and Antonio Gates all at the same time! Now Herbert, Austin Ekeler, Keenan Allen, Khalil Mack, Joey Bosa? This group has a couple more years of blown opportunities and shocking losses in them for sure, I just know it. I believe with the right new leader, they can find revolutionary and creative ways to remarkably disappoint this team’s already-suffering fans.” The Chargers have already placed the vacant position on LinkedIn and Indeed, asking in the description for “a head coach who can use an outside-the-box approach to lose football games that on paper should be blowout wins, and can acquire no less than 7 Pro Bowlers all on the same roster and yet still not even reach the Wild Card round.” At press time, Urban Meyer and Adam Gase had been announced as the front runners for the new job.
