Chargers News: Fans Annihilate Brandon Staley Following Chiefs Loss

It may be time to cut ties.

Since head coach Brandon Staley took over as the leader of the Los Angeles Chargers, things haven't quite worked out the way he would have hoped. The Bolts have underperformed each season.

The Chargers did make the postseason last year, but it ended up being all for nothing. They blew a 27-0 lead to the Jacksonville Jaguars in the wild-card round, and many called for the job of Staley then.

But the front office decided to give him another chance, and this year was supposed to be different. But through six games of the Bolts' 2023 season, LA has a record of 2-4. The path to the postseason looks daunting, and the hot seat that Staley entered the year on has gotten even hotter.

This team has failed to live up to any expectations placed on them, and they can't ever seem to get out of their own way. It has become a pattern over the years, and Staley is the face of it all.

“Defensively, the Chargers are a mess and have shown an inability to stop the pass, which leaves them at 2-4, searching for answers for what appears to be the beginning of a lost season for the promising Chargers.”

This team is far too talented to let each week pass them by or for them to be squeaking out wins. The Chargers could easily be 0-6 or 1-5 if not for two outstanding defensive plays at the end of their two victories.

Logically there is no reason to keep Brandon Staley on as head coach. The 3rd and 15th play is all the evidence you need to fire him. If they keep Staley after this game the Chargers will continue to be the laughing stock of the NFL

The Bolts have a tough task ahead of them, and if they can't change things, Staley could be looking for another job soon. Oftentimes, he seems in over his head, and the Chargers can't afford to have that happen any longer.

“Chargers fans have felt pain and agony over the years, but during the Brandon Staley/Dean Spanos regime, the losses have piled up in strange ways, leaving fans frustrated and bewildered. Staley is on the hot seat, and the heat will only intensify if Los Angeles can’t turn their season around.”



Per Ryan Broyles of ProFootballNetwork

Staley will be the first change if things don't turn around, but there could be more underlying issues. The Chargers need to figure out what those are to get themselves back into a place of contending for a Super Bowl title.
