Stephen A: I never ask for someone to be fired. Also Stephen A: Brandon Staley has to go

Props to the man in the back that let the kid get up front for a closer look.👊🏽

He's absolutely right. Last year he failed in the final game of the season. This year, he failed in his 1st playoff game. He's not a good coach when the pressure is on, he can't handle the fire

Doug Pederson coached circles around Staley in that second half. The way Doug kept the Jags composed, focused, and in that game is amazing. The Chiefs are gonna beat the brakes off them this coming weekend, but they’ve really got something to grow on this off-season.

I’m not even a chargers fan (I’m a sad Bears fan) but wow, I have to unload my thoughts on this because this is truly insane. The thing is that people can put the blame on a bunch of people when you blow a huge lead, and usually there is a legitiment argument. But this one is 100% on the chargers coaching staff, mainly their head coach and play callers. I actually think their coach was criticized a little too much for playing starters last week, because I think people undervalue the importance of players keeping their rhythm going into the playoffs, and I think the players keeping rhythm was a big reason why the chargers dominated the first part of this game against the Jags (but obviously hindsight is 20/20 w/ Williams getting hurt). But my main point is that when the team blows a huge lead AND the offense didn’t even turn the ball over all game, to me that is the definition of god-awful coaching. The fact they even had that lead shows that the players came ready to play. Herbert wasn’t completely perfect, but he was still amazing, and the defense was able to shut down the Jags completely. It almost seems like Staley doesn’t know that he has to make in game adjustments based on what the other team is doing. This is why I think quarterbacks receive too much credit or too much blame, and coaches don’t receive enough credit or enough blame. Just look at what Daboll is doing with Daniel Jones and the Giants. (Also Justin Fields w/ the bears) Some people might disagree with me, but I don’t think guys like Mahomes or Brady would have nearly the amount of success w/o Andy Reid and Belichick. I sometimes wish my bears drafted Mahomes over Trubisky, but honestly, I think we would’ve ruined him. And also obviously Staley was terrible, but the chargers shortcomings ultimately fall on the ownership, who hired Staley in the first place.

Stanley should’ve been gone last year

I agree with you SA 100%. That team should be way better.

Bosa slamming his helmet again after Staley gave it back was so telling. He has no control of his players. Is he an equipment manager or head coach? What is their identity? What does he add to the team? If he didn’t have this level of talent, a top 3 roster, what would his record be?

It’s Joe Lombardi the offensive coordinator that needs to go plain and simple

Matt Ryan blew a 28-3 lead while also having a perfect QBR and he will get scrutinized forever but when Herbert blows a 27 point lead it’s on the coach lmaoo 🤦🏾‍♂️

Brandon Staley gettin' roasted by SAS almost as hard as he's lambasted Marvin Lewis... 🤣🤣

Props to the Jags. Instead of playing to win, the Chargers were playing not to lose. Hopefully, Sean Payton for HC or Frank Reich for HC or OC.

Stephen A is comedy 😂

Dan is right about the adversity of the regular season.... BUT NONE OF THAT GOT SH*T TO DO WITH BLOWING A 27-0 LEAD. HE'S FIRED!!! TODAY!!

Stephen A. is probably responsible for the last 5 Dallas coaches getting fired. He stay calling for their heads lol

The only other coach I’ve heard SAS call for his firing was Marvin Lewis💀

Stephen A couldn't wait for this

Embarrassing for all Chargers fans and players

Man I love the live audience

4:33 SAS rant ends in shame!

The tale of two post-game press conferences. Herbie: "I needed to play better" Staley: "The players fault". Zero responsibility accepted. He should be gone.

Imagine if Tomlin was the coach of the Chargers with that Talent on both sides.

Staley should’ve never gotten the job in the first place!!!!!

“Im not trying to take money out of peoples pockets”. Yes you are.

Molly a giants fan is wearing a cowboys jersey. This stuff is fake smh

Funny how the last 2 years they also has Herbert. You think it was Staley? Not so sure Dan. I think the success was because of Herbert. Fire Staley.

Lombardi def needs to go. I want staley gone too! But oc is terrible. After this kind of collapse, chargers need to clean house!

He thought Staley was an OC lmaooooo

chargers are just the clippers of the nfl. Underperforming

Staley should’ve been fined $27K ($1K for every point of that blown lead on Saturday), AND been made to WALK BACK to LA! Or at the very least the Chargers should’ve fired him the SECOND that game was over and left him in Jacksonville. Don’t even allow him to call an Uber

This grown man 60 years old painting his nails 💅

SAS cut a promo 😂😂

It's 2:00 and he still has his job.

Michael Irvin just sitting there smiling, he loves this sh*t

Stephen you are EXACTLY RIGHT ......staley doesn't deserve to coach the chargers!!!

Can we pls give Jacksonville credit

Dan is WRONG!! Staley has GOT to go!!! Clock mismanagement numerous times, playing your starters for 3 quarters in a meaningless game that knocks out your WR2, going for it on your own 30 multiple times, and blowing a 27-0 lead in the playoffs. He is not ready to be a HC

Molly at 4:18 looking at Stephen A like he's a snack. 😅

Ironic SAS always calling for somebody job but says I don’t like talking about people job status

Exciting game! However the chargers choked

This might be the only time in my life I’ve agreed with SAS.

😂😂😂 Stephen A Wearing a Brady jersey is crazy

Better yet, Stephen A., it's time for Chargers fans to say these words to Dean Spanos - SELL THE TEAM!

I have never seen a “defensive coach” be bad defensively. It’s one thing to have lower ranked defenses with those injuries. But any “defensive coach” cannot blow a 27 point lead to a QB making his first Playoff start especially when you’re +5 in turnovers.

Dan wild, Stanley needs to be fired he is robbing us from seeing Justin Herbert true potential. The fact you got this man throwing 3 4 yard passes with one of the strongest arms in the nfl is just crazy.

People want to fire everyone with the quickness nowadays LOL. Dude is a good coach. They are always in the game no matter what. Have the same energy with the other coaches as well if you have it toward the Chargers

FACTS! You got a great team and a Franchise quarterback!

What is Dan thinking 🤦🏾‍♂️

Chargers should’ve made playoffs Herbert first year and that’s why Quinn got fired, so I’m not giving enormous credit to Staley for qualifying for playoffs. GM did his job.

Brandon Staley is not a head coach material

Jeezus Molly come up for air 😂

Stephen As mind: Cowboys fans are contagious because Dan is becoming one

Sean Payton is overrated asf only 1 Superbowl with Drew Brees.

Experience Staley has no experience and Doug Pederson has experience and has won a super bowl. The play calling on both sides of the ball for the chargers was terrible how do you blow that lead smh.

It is honestly impressive just how positive Dan always is about players and teams. ESPECIALLY mid problematic players

Stephen a really showed us he just be yelling 😂man didnt even know that Brandon Staley was a dc not an oc

I didn't know Bootsy Collins is a Cowboys fan. Shouldn't be yelling to get people fired and do you have an original take with value and why make him a laughing stock by clowning him in front of everybody there trying to get them laughing? Steven A., I agree at Brandon Staley is not the coach for this team and this is coming from a Chargers fan, a longtime Chargers fan, who has endured plenty of heartbreak. Yes this is the worst to overcome, and every pundit is dogpiling on Brandon Staley today. At least Dan Orlovsky had the decency to say you don't just fire people publicly, like you don't just wanna fire him, you wanna publicly execute him and jump up and down and cheer...what good is that, and your social media histrionics don't deliver a contender any faster. This display is all about you, not Brandon Staley.

Playing all the starters in a meaningless game should’ve been the last straw

It is true. I don’t think it’s anyones right to call for someone’s job, but that loss was inexcusable.

Staley is a former QB known for coaching defense? We are in the matrix

Chargers went into prevent. They allowed the jags to pick em apart by the short routes like they did early in the year. Chargers cbs destroyed Jax wrs when in press coverage. CBs backed off n got killed in the yards after catch. Y change what was working? They were afraid and he reverted back to a once dominant defense scheme (deep safety) that the league figured out.

Charger's we're throwing the ball, when they should've been running the ball

This is the team and QB Sean Paytin has been waiting on. This epic lost is everything that was needed to justify firing Brandon Staley.

Totally agree Staley should be fired.

The amount of weapons we have on offense and the names we have on defense, there is no reason for us to lose that game. Coaching conservatively is stupid. The clock management was terrible. The offense is limited. The defense is uninspired. I knew we were going to lose. I had friends texting me in the 1st half saying we got this. I said talk to me after the game. The Chargers will do Chargers things.

They might as well take the woman’s chair away from the table she gets like 3 words in then interrupted and gives up 😂

I've been saying he should be fired if he loses the game & he did.

Who's Stephen to call for another man's job that works for a different employer than his?this is just stupid...no in depth analysis on the actual game itself just debauchery and stupidity at its finest but I guess he is only playing to his audience.

And the video where you call for Bowles and leftwich head on a silver platter is where ? Nowhere and i wonder why….

the refs game the jags the game ... nah ... the chargers just CHOKED!!! 😀😀😀😀😀

"what if we had wrestling but with a sports talk show" Yes

Stephen A: Fire Staley, Stephen A: Staley was a DC?

Jags vs Giants SB

If Brandon Staley is giving the locker room pep talk on the first day of training camp.....many players who just suffered through the debacle will tune him out and figure the upcoming season will be one to avoid injury at all costs and calmly cash paychecks twice a month. You aren't going to gridiron war for this guy.

Can we give some props to the Jags owner Tony Khan, ESPN???

Brandon Staley not having certain players available at his disposal during the regular season is a regular season problem they made it to the playoffs. Whatever happened before doesn’t matter. He failed to coach 4 quarters like he always does. He rants on and on and on about how changes are going to come and how it’s a different chargers team and how they don’t charger anymore and those were all lies. What has he done since he’s been with the team but implement embarrassment after embarrassment. I know a lot of the players in the locker room have his back, but not all the players. He has a good team and he’s wasting talent.

Dan giving the chargers all the excuses every team gets significant injuries. They just mad cause they can’t face that they picked la to go on a deep run and well the chargers are who I thought they were 🤣

Why does molly has a boys jersey????

Staley lost his job on week 18, won it back in the 1st half, then lost it in the 2nd half !!! Im more surprised on how LA offense couldnt match up with Jacksonville's offense in the 2nd half !!! Dafuk happened to Herbert ?!

If they don't fired him we won't ever go again to go see the Chargers play again

Brandon Staley fired him asap

While I agree Coach staley needs to go, this lost is not on him. Staley is in charge of the defense. If you watch the chargers all season, you know that joe lombardi is the issue. There is so much talent on the offense and they got 27 points due to staley’s defensive calling. Staley does need to go. BUT Joe lombardi needs to go

But you won't call for Dana White to be removed...

They let him on the plane home? No way.

And look at that, they should have listened to him last year

Glad that Stephen A. is roasting Staley ...however how come Irvin and Orlovsky silent about Bosa's behavior

Needs to go but won't. Spanos is cheap and doesn't pay fired coaches. He'll keep Staley on for one more year, at least, despite his firing being obvious and fully justified.

Stephen A knows nothing. Clearly when Dan said “Defense” and Stephen A shut up quick.

I agree STALEY...has to be fired🔥

They fired their coach, for a dumb coach, now look... new ain't better 😂

That's the real deal ... Stephen says what he thinks a lot reporters have fear to talk the reality ..

These are casual cowboys fans, there is no way I’ll be there on a day like this. U couldn’t pay me to go.

I am with Stephen A.

A company pencil ✏️ lol 😭 😆 😂

Defensive genius Staley has allowed over 25 points per game over the last two years. If you can’t get Payton, Reich and Harbaugh would be great options. Demeco Ryan’s too.

Chargers fired the wrong guy. Offense didn't blow a 27 point lead lol

IF it was JUST the offense that stinks, MAYBE give stale lee another chance. But, the so called defensive guru defense STINKS too. 2 years and the chargers are WORSE than they were BEFORE stale lee took over. And, he has done TOO MANY inexcusable mistakes. Leaving an injured QB in a game down 38-10. NO excuse. BLOWING a 27 point lead, NO excuse. and other stupid mistakes that even FANS knew were STUPID.

Fan since 1960 am so pissed off not at the players but the head coach. What the %^^&*&* did he tell the team at half time, what?? unbelievable over and out I am done. MKL&ML

Lombardi had more screen plays in his playbook than a Hollywood writers convention. Jags blitzed up the middle majority of the game and he never called any crossing routes to take advantage of it. Just kept calling screens to the running back, receivers and tight ends.

Stephen A. Is correct. Stalebread must go. ....and trade Joey Bozo🤡
