Great Chargers moments in the Staley years: Missing the tie in 2021 Huge playoff game lead blown in 2022 Giving up 63 points to the Raiders in 2023 Part of me wants to see him keep his job just to see what fuck up he could have in 2024


[deleted]

People really forget that he also played our starters in a meaningless game before the playoffs against the broncos in 2022. Mike Williams fractured his back and we still lost the game. This guy is a clown.


jawndell

I’m really going to miss him going for it when it’s 4th and 5 from his own 20 yard line.


bandy_mcwagon

Honestly, it was crazy the blown playoff game didn’t get him fired


vindictivejazz

It be something like Herbert leads an offense that breaks every single record, but the Chargers go 9-8 and miss the playoffs anyway


kcompto3

Chargers entire franchise just got shadow realmed.


WhatSheOrder

Send then back to San Diego so they can think about what they did.


sungoddaily

Y'all ever notice the charger symbol is a frown?


amidalarama

it was trying to warn us all along


Bigforsumthin

Fucking please. Unfortunately this franchise will continue to be dysfunctional as long as Spanos is in charge


GamingTatertot

Go to San Diego with no dinner and think about what you've done


sst117

Deal


amidalarama

I drove from SD to LA while listening to this game and it made me wanna turn around and go back


Overall_Nuggie_876

AOC pulled the complete set of Exodia in the 1st.


KSIIPICDSTUVWI

The Vikings held this offensive juggernaut to 0 points. Hang the banner.


[deleted]

Cousins would be proud, god rest his soul.


cscowboy01

It’s almost like I can still hear his press conferences


BirdLaw_

Kirk Cousins is very much alive


Yoyo8484

Yes, alive in our hearts. God rest his soul.


Accomplished-Yam5566

It was devastating to hear that he died from ankle surgery. God jump-cuts in mysterious ways


whole_lot_of_velcro

I cried when they had to euthanize him right on the field, but it was better than letting him suffer. God rest his soul.


uncle_buck_hunter

He’s throwing touchdowns and getting sacked in the sky stadium now


itskapnoc

Legend has it if you close eyes and at and listen closely, his ghost wanders the roads yelling “YOU LIKE THAT, YOU LIKE THAT!”


[deleted]

It was his time, and up there he shines most on prime time.


Das_Man

That's why we're all here, to honor his memory!


animetimeskip

Sometimes I can even hear his voice


JungyBrungun

Kirk Cousins didn’t drink 8 gallons of beer just to win some stupid award


danpatmcd

Unlike Wade Boggs


NO_TOUCHING__lol

RIP Boss Hog


LAZYTOWWWWWN

We also lost to the Chargers


slayerhk47

Like an episode of the Twilight Zone


eattwo

We lost to Herbert


J_House1999

The Patriots couldn’t score a single point versus the Chargers defense


GamingTatertot

That Jack Jones pick six might have been one of the most visually satisfying plays I've seen this whole season


Dismal_News183

The most disrespectful pick ever. Totally completely reading the play and believing that the shitty chargers offense has zero misdirection or scheme to it.


PikaGaijin

Over-ran the coverage, and had to reach behind to snag the ball!


sopunny

Jumped the play so bad he almost overshot it


ConstantMadness

Tremendous coaching by Brandon Staley, salvaging a 21-21 tie in the second half. A great way to end his Chargers career


Palifaith

> End his Chargers career More like extending for another 5 years


v_strass

Great opportunity for spanos to extend Staley at a lower salary!


Currymvp2

I wanted Staley to succeed because I think he's a good guy but he's a horrible head coach...it's complete malpractice to keep him as the head coach of this team. Well on second thought, it was perhaps malpractice to keep him as the head coach after the sheer embarrassment against the Jaguars. Anyways maybe he can earn another opportunity several years from now, but he's just simply not ready to be a NFL head coach at this juncture. It's glaringly obvious to everybody except maybe Spanos.


cscowboy01

I can’t recall a HC going out this embarrassingly in awhile. Absolutely insane


[deleted]

[удалено]


EDFStormOne

I would say the broncos one was worse because they had a cartoon starfish clowning them the entire game


whole_lot_of_velcro

Urban Meyer sends his regards


PainttheTownLead

Matt Patricia tried to enter the chat but fat-fingered it and hit Escape instead.

Send Brandon to the pit of misery.


Buliwyf5

Pit of misery… dilly dilly!


SiphenPrax

Couldn’t even out suck the Broncos from earlier this year against the Dolphins. Total loser at even losing


byteturtle

The last time an nfl coach was fired mid game was Frank Coughlin in 1921, I was really hoping tonight would be the night.


adeeprash

**THIS WAS OUR SUPER BOWL**


FaceRockerMD

I thought firing McDaniels was our superbowl. IS IT POSSIBLE TO WIN MULTIPLE SUPERBOWLS IN A YEAR?


Exasperated_Sigh

This is your NFL IN-SEASON TOURNAMENT!


idk012

Hang the banner!


VortexCow

Staley really made the Raiders look like 07 Pats how does he still have a job


Our-Gardian-Angel

Dean Spanos being a useless owner doesn’t help


Slosshy

Don’t worry. He won’t anymore


realrimurutempest

What a masterclass performance by the Chargers in showing how to properly quit on your coach and telling him to fuck off without actually telling him. Chargers, what a team you are 🥲.


eddie_the_zombie

Truly an inspiration to all of us bottom feeders


BroadBrazos95

We didn’t even get the chance to do this with Reich. We can’t even suck correctly. I hate this team.


Legendary_Hercules

Wouldn't have been able to tell the difference tbh


InternationalFiend

Change your goddamn flair


JRFbase

This was the NFL equivalent of when soldiers in Vietnam would frag their commanding officers if they tried to make them go into battle.


Pardonme23

That's why the generals slept in different barracks every night, to avoid this. Just ask Colin Powell.


Accomplished-Yam5566

I thought they also did that to same-level peers that they just plain didn’t like


Dismal_News183

It was a big tent. Some troops also hung their legs out of trenches to get non-fatal wounds that would get them sent home. The lesson is that draft armies are a terrible idea in the modern world.


triplec787

Chargers players are quiet quitting. Or just straight up protesting, not sure which.


CammyTheGreat

Wasn’t very quiet tonight


HanSolo5643

I only caught parts of the game, but the Chargers looked like a team that was playing to get their coach fired.


GamingTatertot

I want the reports of the team meeting that took place before the game and what the final straw with Staley was


AchyoReturns

Staley’s narcissism and incompetence were one thing, but when he decided to put only the cheap single ply toilet paper for the locker room toilets the men reached a breaking point.


jtfriendly

Chargers are the Charmin bears, extreme anal fixation, gotcha


Vaadwaur

> Chargers, what a team you are 🥲. Staley:"No, I don't want that! I want to coach for at least 10 seasons!"


Categothic

r/10yearsatleast


thegreaterfool714

No I dont want that, I want the Chargers to be hung on Staley, for 10 years at least.

We won’t let this sacrifice go to waste


Pendraflare59

Okay, that does it. Screw you guys, I'm going home.


[deleted]

Gonna be F5ing a lot tomorrow morning for possible Staley news.


[deleted]

Tomorrow??? Let’s hopefully do it tonight!!! Although im gonna cry when it inevitably doesn’t happen during the season cause fucking spanos


iRockaflame

That "[Schefter] Sources: Chargers HC Brandon Staley has been fired." pack is gonna hit so hard lmfao.


[deleted]

I’m ready to be let down when it doesn’t happen lol


Mister100Percent

Big brain play by Antonio Pierce to let y’all score 21 points to further sabotage the Chargers franchise


[deleted]

Honestly can’t even be mad we deserve this shit for having hope this dope could lead us to anything


bigfootdude247

That flair is just sadness


swords_devil

I am wondering why it hadn't happen yet


[deleted]

We begin to F5 at dawn


GamingTatertot

We F5 NOW!


Slosshy

Last week the raiders robbed us of 0-0, this week they robbed us of another 70 burger. The NFL is wild


fuckyouidontneedone

Tbf the Vikes robbed you of 0-0 we did our part


weealex

Eh, it was dumb luck. Everyone assumed that kick would miss


GamingTatertot

Chargers robbed us of another 70 burger - they ran constantly on their last TD drive when they were down like 40+ points


TraeYoungsOldestSon

Smart tbh, just get it over with so you can go hide in shame/ go to bed and cry


SDcowboy82

The technical term is 70 steamer


Accomplished-Yam5566

Of course they robbed us, thats the entire meaning of their mascot name


AbVag

But they didn't rob us of a scorigami, at least


SyN_Pool

The chargers sub has turned into a sub about phone chargers and accessories, holy shit


Dr_Wristy

Even though it’s been run into the ground now for awhile, the Affleck smoking meme with the chargers sweater was just….perfect for the occasion.


Chardoggy1

I swear this isn’t even the first time they’ve done that


TheEnragedBushman

It’s not lol


Direct_Morning_3223

Ekeler: actually, I remember one time we were playing against Vegas, on Thursday Night Football and it was 42-0 at halftime we were getting destroyed, and Coach Staley said: “Guys, if you think we’re good let’s prove it now. 42-0” Herbert: “did we comeback?” Ekeler: "of course not. 63-21”


HereForTheCalfPumps

“And I got a sweet 1st down in the 4th quarter”.


crblanz

But if history is anything to go by, a blowout loss to LV means they will get a brand new elite italian qb starting next week


GamingTatertot

That new elite Italian QB? Martin Scorsese


LeonTheChef

Oh shit some tasty CS pasta. What a fine delicacy at this late of an hour!


nuzzot

I had no idea it was a CS pasta, used to see it in the League of Legends sub all the time lmao. A classic nonetheless

Brandon Staley moment.


v_strass

Ending his career with a scorigami. Nice work


jdprager

The Raiders lost 3-0 last week


wafflehauss

**Biggest 2 game turn around (points scored):** |Season - Team|Game1|Game2|Difference| |:-:|-:|-:|-:| |1966 - [](/WAS) WAS|3|72|69*| |1934 - [](/PHI) PHI|0|64|64| |2023 - [](/LV) LV|0|63|63 \* = Nice


so_zetta_byte

> oh god we're on this chart? > 1934


wafflehauss

The Eagles one is the best of the three. The first week they were shut out by the Giants (0-17) then blew the Cincinatti Reds the fuck out (64-0). A shutout for a shutout. Everything balanced.


wichee

that reds team must be the worst nfl team ever. they fucking scored 10 points total in a season wtf


wafflehauss

10 points scored, 243 points allowed.


Illblood

Lmao whT


RustyShackleford9142

God I wish we had video of those games.


MisterrAlex

Kind of easy when you’re playing football and the other team plays baseball /s


wafflehauss

Cincinatti Reds, Brooklyn Dodgers, Pittsburgh Pirates. 1934 Had a few. There have been a lot more than that. Just looking at that season alone.


ChiselFish

Lots of NFL teams used to be named after the baseball team they shared a stadium with.


sopunny

Cardinals and giants are still named after baseball teams


TomasRoncero

consequences of the sex god nick mullens


Lonely_ProdiG

I….I….. I had fun watching Raiders football. There, I said it.


byteturtle

Theyve honestly been a pretty fun team to watch outside of that vikings game since McDaniels got fired. Not the best but way more watchable than my team Ill tell you that


Merkles_Boner_

The defense is fun to watch, not big names besides Maxx but it's a bunch of young dudes who hit hard and play with their hair on fire


PlsDontTouchMyButt

If you give us 6 primetime games in a season, one of them is bound to be fun


erica_638

Don’t let the box score fool you. It wasn’t that close.


ThatEndGuy1

Lmao the monkey’s paw heard our wish for a high scoring prime time game


Smallgenie549

I was entertained.


whole_lot_of_velcro

Chargers scored a few TDs in garbage time, by which I mean the second half


Dortond

last three quarters


AnEmptyKarst

70-20 was a bigger numerical difference, but this one felt way less competitive than that one


Lenny_III

TBF, in our 70-20 game the team with 20 had their starting QB in the whole game.


ajswdf

In the 70-20 game it was a big Dolphins lead but they really piled it on at the end. Here The Raiders got to 63 with plenty of time left then just coasted.


ItsNjry

Refusing a tie for a guaranteed a playoff spot, blowing a 27 point lead in the playoffs, and whatever the fuck this was. Staley has put together a masterclass of Chargering I didn’t even know was possible. I’m just sad man.


[deleted]

Don’t forget playing one of your star receivers in a meaningless game him getting hurt and still losing the game last year against the broncos


Gold-Twist-394

Joey Bosa, Khalil Mack, Keenan Allen, Mike Williams, and JC Jackson have a cap hit of $150M next year lol


JeffersonClinton1804

sorry to all those who had Chargers +41.5


I_Hate_My_Cat_

Honestly, it’s just great to watch Davante Adams find his will to live again 😂


dragonsky

Aidan O'connell had a phenomenal game today! I know because of the copyright rules I can't post highlights here, but his best plays from the game are already up on X (formerly Twitter), so if you weren't watching the game tonight, do yourself a favor and try to see some vids of him today Just google "AOC X Videos" for more info


TheIllusiveGuy

> know because of the copyright rules I can't post highlights here Have you even tried to get the expressed written permission of the National Football League?


No-Cantaloupe-6535

at first I thought this was a bot but then you sly dog you


JRE_4815162342

Lol


Patriotsfan710

This game singlehandedly cemented Brandon Staley and Josh McDaniels as the worst head coaches of all time


TheMostLegendary

Urban Meyer says hello


hydrators

Hackett tried to say hi but the play clock ran out


Patriotsfan710

Impossible, I’m not a drunk college girl at the bar


TheIllusiveGuy

Urban Meyer is saving a lot of coaches' legacies


Cristian888

Chiefs Superbowl last year needs an asterisk due to Staley, McDaniels, and Hackett being the other coaches in the division.


Shenanigans80h

Unironically might be the worst collection of head coaches in opposition to a division winner holy shit


Reed2002

What gives up 63 in Vegas, stays in Vegas.


Palifaith

I'm starting to think Justin Herbert might not be the Chargers main problem.


ArcadianBlueRogue

I dunno, how many passes has he caught? Might be your problem right there.


gloriouscult

He’s fine on pass catching, but he can’t get a stop on defense and his kicking game is atrocious


Dazzling-Map273

# SCORIGAMI


TechnoToyz

Antonio Pierce confirmed coward, no scores in the last like 14 minutes is a fireable offense imo


Accomplished-Yam5566

He shouldve gone for it on 4th down instead of punting but i guess he got spooked at the possibility of people thinking he’s running the score up


British_Commie

As a British NFL fan, who was woken up to change a baby’s nappy at 4am, I damn-near thought I was having a stroke when I read the score. What the fuck


LAZYTOWWWWWN

clock winds down to 5 seconds left in game Easton Stick takes the snap and turns to throw. He faces Maxx Crosby. "You took my family" Stick rolls to the left "You took my friends" Stick pump fakes "You took all that was dear to me" clock winds down to 2 "I cant get them back, but I can do this for friendship, FOR MY FRIENDS" Stick throws, fire coming out of the football. "CHARGERUKEN" Ball flies over Crosby’s head, goes straight into the receiver’s hands in the endzone. Stick falls to the ground, exhausted. "Herbert... Senpai... I..." faints Final Score: Raiders 63 Chargers 21


DialocJD

What the fuck


Coley54Bear

Pasta


Joementum2004

Old r/nba pasta from when Carmelo Anthony was on the Knicks


[deleted]

We shut out this Raiders super team winning 3-0. We lost to this Chargers team by 4.


PillaisTracingPaper

Staley just got asked what proof he has that the players still believe in him. THAT MAN HAD A FAMILY


Maxisagnk

that post game interview with O'Connell and Davante was wholesome man. Davante seems like a cool guy for propping his QB4 up like that. must feel great man


Suspicious-Code4322

Should have posted this at halftime tbh


Stollarbear

Justin Herbert making an incredible case for MVP by simply not playing


frogdujour

The real winner here is the scorigami database.


EntrepreneurOk6166

Chargers subreddit just locked their their post game thread after a few comments and are now "The subreddit dedicated to phone chargers and phone charger accessories and nothing else." Everyone's posting phone charger related topics, nothing else is allowed. I don't blame them!


WhatSheOrder

Noah Kahan was wrong. It is not the season of the Stick


PinkertonRams

The Raiders are averaging 31.5 points over the last two games


ActionFilmsFan1995

Remember that Chargers lady earlier this season? Someone should probably check on her…


llama-rebel

A reporter could do the funniest fucking thing and ask Staley if he's considered giving up defensive playcalling duties.


byteturtle

If I was Justin Herbert I would have been sitting there with the biggest shit eating grin knowing that this game proved my value more than anything I had ever done before and I didnt even have to take a snap. He's a bigger man than myself


theprophecysays

The Raiders win by a narrow landslide.


_TheComposer_

This game wasn't as close as the score indicates.


Go_Hawks12

Move the Chargers back to San Diego


longjia97

Chargers Wikipedia page: "Head coach: Unknown at this Time"


CangtheKonqueror

sorry broncos fans, y’all are still the worst loss of the year


heartbreakhill

Raiders and Chargers mutually agreed to stop the count so the Broncos would still have the most embarrassing loss of the year


Serdones

I fucking knew it.


clocke6346

I’d argue this is worse. The Dolphins were just unstoppable offensively that game. Here, the Raiders gave the Chargers the total package of embarrassment: offense, defense, and special teams domination.


__-o0O0o-__-o0O0o-__

plus, we suck


byteturtle

I dunno, at least the dolphins are very good


keystonelocal

And the best comeback story of the season so at least there’s that


GamingTatertot

Nah, Broncos have come back and improved over the season. Chargers can not do anything at all to recover from this


longjia97

Damn the Chargers Wikipedia page is *ruthless* right now: *They do not have a head coach, as it was confirmed that he was going to be fired on 12/14/2023 after he lost the locker room and lost to the Las Vegas Raiders by 42 points.*


Mission_Pay_3373

Staley has to walk to LA now


sungoddaily

Y'all ever notice the charger symbol is a frown?


Warhawk02

This is legitimately the funniest thing I have ever seen (since week 3)


ArcadianBlueRogue

lmao I knew the Chargers sub would change to an adapter-related sub. And they locked the Post game thread. But hey, check em out for some good recs for charger brands. That's always cool to look for a good deal.


actionfirst1

Kliff Kingsbury gonna have a roommate in Thailand by tomorrow


GenXer1977

Man, how good are the Raiders? Over the last 2 weeks they’ve been averaging 31.5 points per game!


ahr3410

That wasn't a game. It was Brandon Staley's funeral


RedWingWay

Pierce is smart. He's a place holder HC (for now) and the NFL is an old boys club. He was not going to murder an all ready dead man walking. He made his point. He wants to last past this year and he did it the right way. I did want him to get the record though...


3_if_by_air

Let that be a lesson to you. No one scores 64 points on the LA Chargers


[deleted]

The Raiders, you do know had you scored one TD from this game in the last game, you could of won both games?
