Chargers News: Brandon Staley Credits This For Improved Defense Against New York

Los Angeles Chargers head coach Brandon Staley’s long-term future has looked fairly tenuous at various junctures this season, thanks to some pretty bone-headed late-game decision making occasionally.

There’s been chatter of perhaps the greatest coach in the modern game being brought in to replace Staley as early as next year.

But now, the Bolts have threaded together two straight victories for the second team this year, essentially preserving their 2023 season.

Per Omar Navarro of Chargers.com, Staley praised the improving health of his defense as a big reason behind LA’s most recent win, a 27-6 road blowout over the New York Jets Monday.

“Just when we’re healthy that’s how [the LA defense will] rush,” Staley said. “They just haven’t been healthy together for very long, but when they’ve been healthy together, that’s how they’ve played.

That’s why we have to keep them that way, but then when you get the other guys rushing, you know, when you have Tuli rushing as well as he is, Foxy [Morgan Fox], those interior guys, Derwin [James Jr.], it’s going to create more opportunities for everybody.”

“I thought from the first whistle to the last one, we competed. Thought we did the things that good defenses do,” Staley continued. “I thought we were physical tonight, we did a really good job against the run game, thought we rushed the passer, we limited the explosions in the deep part of the field and we were really good in the redzone… It was a team win and our guys, they practiced at a high level all week and they carried it to the field tonight.”
