Chargers have now lost five games by 3 points or fewer this season: 34-36, 24-27, 17-20, 38-41, and 20-23.

This is the inverse of the Steelers. They're finding ways to lose.

Damn it, this always happens. I think I'm gonna score, and then I never score. It's not fair.

The Steelers offense is atrocious in literally every way. I am still amazed they trot everyone out with no changes.

They have a good rear end running back and under utilize him.

It's wild, because fifteen years ago, the Chargers MO seemed to be really sluggish starts and then figuring it out and making a big run in the second half of the season. The Staley Era though has been like a mirror of the Angels: "We have the ingredients to win, now let's find a way to lose anyway."

Panthers just need to fire Reich and see if Brown can actually design and call an offense. Let Staley be in charge for the last 7 games.

Just rip the bandaid off.

Jordan love has improved a lot recently.

The bigger issue is they couldn’t score on a defense that covers sometimes

Definitely. Whether it is Staley or Evero getting elevated to interim HC, they need to know if Thomas Brown is worth bringing back next year or not.

let Capers just manage the team from here on out, then disband them.

While not as full meltdown as I was expecting, it's not a good look. Like he has to recognize that his defense isn't working, though I guess when your reputation is built on being a defensive mastermind giving up defensive playcalling duties is a big admission of failure.

There's just nothing new to say about Staley at this point, really. The team has the exact same problems partway into year 3 that they did under Staley's first year there. It's just the exact same poo poo, week in, week out.

If your offense with your regular starter is worse then the Hackett/Wilson Jets offense, you deserve to be fired.

At least we saw a little downhill running today from Sanders and surprise surprise letting your giant run blocking made offensive line go man on man and just drive guys works better than a counter trapping zone system.

Still way too little, way too late but at least if we fire Reich and close out the year as a running team the games will be over faster.

I get that. The rivalry garners little actual sympathy but I can certainly see how it would be so frustrating. I'm still shocked that y'all didn't get a chip with those Rivers/LdT/Gates teams. Ridiculous talent levels throughout that part of team history for sure.

That Staley press conference has to be the last press conference for a coach in a competent organization. Scott Hanson was making fun of him on red zone lol

Sorry about your next year of Staley, Chargers fans.
