NFL Fans Roasted Chargers, Brandon Staley After Raiders' 21-Point First Quarter

NFL fans had plenty to say about the Chargers’ disastrous first half against the Raiders.

The Chargers couldn’t have gotten off to a worse start on Thursday Night Football against the Raiders.

Los Angeles lost three fumbles in the first half—including two in the first quarter—all of which were capitalized on by their division rivals as Las Vegas jumped out to a 28–0 lead before the halfway point of the second quarter.

With quarterback Justin Herbert out of the mix due to a finger injury, backup Easton Stick made his first NFL start during the prime-time clash and quickly found himself on the wrong end of a lopsided battle.

With the Chargers struggling, fans on social media were relentless while roasting coach Brandon Staley and the rest of the team amid what has been a disastrous and disappointing season.

has there been another Defensive Coordinator land a Head Coach job and then produce consitently outragiously terrible defensive results year in and year out like Brandon Staley?

Only question left might be whether Brandon Staley gets fired tonight or tomorrow.

How is everybody liking that Brandon Staley defense so far? Enjoying the action? If you’re new here, I promise it gets so much worse.

Remember, this is a 2 win team without Herbert.
