Chargers News: Brandon Staley Has Heavy Expectations For New OC
Will SoFi Stadium be rocking every time your Los Angeles Chargers take the field for home games in 2023? They have all the motivation in the world to show out this year and really compete for that AFC West division title. Last year should be behind them already and the front office has set them up to succeed.
The rest of the NFL is only getting better but the Bolts have a nice crop of returners mixed with some new faces as they kick off OTA's. Kellen Moore, LA's brand new offensive coordinator, has already started to get familiar with some of the guys that he'll be overseeing and he has a ton of talent to work with.
Austin Ekeler will be back with the Chargers in 2023 and has $2 million more dollars to compete for. Justin Herbert will have his usual WR options that he's known since the beginning of his career and Quentin Johnston will also be added to the mix.
Vibes are definitely high right now as the Chargers arrive one by one back to the field together. This is a group that has already been through adversity together and replaced certain personnel to ensure they'll be better equipped for a long season.
And head coach Brandon Staley cannot wait to see how Moore transcends the team's offense. It's safe to say he'll be expecting a lot out of him.
"To team Quentin Johnston up with Mike and Keenan," said Staley. "And Josh Palmer, we just think that that's going to be one of the top receiving groups in the NFL. I think Kellen's background coming from Dallas when he had Amari Cooper, CeeDee Lamb, Michael Gallup, he'll bring a little bit of a different flavor coaching all of those guys."

The offense should certainly be electric once Moore and the team really get going!
