Will the Chargers fire Brandon Staley Pl

[lovelystyle]

First-time NFL head coaches who begin their tenure with back-to-back winning seasons almost never find themselves on the hot seat, but Brandon Staley is an exception.Staley is coaching one of the best young quarterbacks in football in Justin Herbert, he makes some of Haydn Fleury Women Jersey  the boldest decisions of any coach in the league, and he has arguably fallen short of huge expectations. Add in , which cameon the heels of an unnece sary controversy from Week 18 this season, and his future in Los Angeles becomes cloudy.The Chargers made the playoffs for the first time since 2018, but is a simple playoff appearance enough to earn Staley a third season, especially after how they were eliminated in the wild-card round in 2023?MORE: Here's what you need to know about Staley's job status after into the Chargers' on Saturday night: It isn't known whether Staley needed a playoff win to save his job, though ESPN reported Wednesday that"there's outside chatter" Staley and Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy "could be in trouble if their team doesn't Julien Gauthier Jersey  make a deep playoff run."Los Angeles' meltdown in Jacksonville will raise the volume of the chatter quite a bit. The Chagers led 27-0 late in the second quarter, only to be outscored 31-3 from that point and lose on a walk-off field goal.MORE:No one from the Chargers' front office has commented publicly about Staley's job status, and Staley still has two years remaining on the four-year deal he signed in 2021.Even before the blown lead, Staley might have made himself more vulnerable in Week 18 when he opted to play his starters in a meaningle s game against the Broncos. Mike Williams, Joey Bosa and Kenneth  Erik Haula Kids Jersey Murray all exited with injuries, and Williams was out for the Jaguars game with a fracture in his back. Bosa played but wasn't highly effective.MORE:While players backed Staley after the Broncos game, the injury to Williams made Saturday's game in Jacksonville a tougher battle than it had to be.Staley's first two seasons coaching Herbert have produced one playoff appearance and zero playoff wins. It's not inconceivable, then, that the Chargers will look at other options, including former Saints coach Sean Payton.MORE:Staley also came under fire in 2021, when he earned a reputation for making fearle s fourth-down decisions. Many didn Trevor Van Riemsdyk Kids Jersey 't work out, and they contributed to lo ses to the Chiefs and Raiders that kept the Chargers out of the playoffs. His decision-making has not been scrutinized as heavily in 2022.If Staley has to make his case to the Chargers, he can say he was able to produce a playoff berth despite Williams, Bosa, Keenan Allen, J.C. Jackson and Rashawn Slater all mi sing large chunks of time. A win over the Jaguars, of course, could have put the speculation to bed.
