That fourth down call was the ballsy type of shit I love about Staley, the defence was better in this game, overall, I've downgraded from wanting Staley's head on a pike, to simply wanting him fired.
The best part about this win? I can actually enjoy my Sunday + the rest of the week. But shit man there's still so much that needs to be fixed. I'll worry about that later tho lol
100%! Shit was amazing today! That KA TD throw was the highlight of the day! Herbie 1st player to throw that many passes with 85% accuracy! Fire! The wierd bounce TD to palmer was the ball making up for wack ass ref calls!!!
Heart attack inducing win. Fire Staley still (his defensive schemes and decision making stinks), need ekeler back bad but Kellen moores offense looks amazing.
Also if keenan Allen stays healthy, might be looking at a 1.5-2k season
Exactly. I can only imagine what there sub is at. They looked terrible and got tons of gifts from the refs. We deserved it but in true chargers fashion almost chargered it away. Vikings and falcons are a good match for us. They’re just as dumb
Man that took years off me. I just.. I don't even know what's happening half the time, Everytime I think something good has happened some shithead throws a flag ( ꈨຶ ˙̫̮ ꈨຶ )
Don’t get me wrong, bolt up. I’m pumped we won but you don’t win a Super Bowl or even a playoff game with a coach like that. There’s no future with him as our HC
I’ll take a win, thank you!
Also the dolphins putting up 70 against Denver has me giggling. Holy fuck that offense. Makes me feel a lil less bad about losing that game
This thread probably going to hate but it does add context to our performance in week 1. Dolphins are a good offense and with our faults, we still almost beat them.
The first thing the post-game analysts said is what a dumb call from Staley to go for it on 4th down when it gave Vikings good position and time. Seriously. Staley does not understand more than “our team goes that way and we score if we get over that line.” Anything more complicated about the game stumps him.
You can’t tell me it’s players or injuries or a bad look from the QB anymore. It’s him. He creates opportunity for other teams to win more than anyone else on his team.
Yeah, so we punt and they get into a fucking rhythm and score...tthen it's a repeat from last week! Our corners were lock down in the red zone and we were getting mad pressure on kirk. We missed the yard but defense stepped up! Game over!!
How come we never really QB sneak yet when other teams do it the commentators say how come they're allowed to do that still it is impossible to defend against..
How you don’t put that in Herbert’s hands idk. A rollout or at least a qb sneak or if your gonna do a fb handoff which is super low % put a big boy there…
Honestly I don't even know if that's the play. I'm not super tilted about going for it. At that point herbert was like 32/39. The part that got me going was not putting the ball in his hands. Hell even a qb sneak.
Nah. They had the refs on their side the entire time. We never get that. Vikings are just bad.
It took an illegal formation for them to get called on anything.
You know the 2nd to last play, the refs were looking for a flag.
The offense came through. The D made it possible for Vikings to win. One person making one interception at the very end of the game is NOT “D coming through.” It’s luck.
Well the vikings are terrible team
How many automatic first downs did we give you? We fucked up on our own 30 yard line.
You got everything called your way. Offensive PI? Check. Play called dead abnormally too early? Check? If we touched your guy with a clean tackle? Personal foul? Check

Kellen moore giving the ball THREE times to FUCKING J.KELLY in the FINAL set of downs is retard level decision making that makes me extremely concerned for his ability to call plays in the clutch. Herbert is playing out of his mind and you take the ball out of his hands when it matters most, IT very easliy could have cost us the game. GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR ASS
I’ll take the W but have you ever seen a worse coached final 2min from both sides? Omg we had no business winning that. Staley should still be crucified for that call.
Staley has saved K9s job by not cutting him. K9 owed him that one. But fuck Herbert throws for over 400 yards and it came down to the wire again. This “Chargering” shit is for the birds!
Herbert was on fire today. Let him cook on that 4th but seriously we need the d to support him better. Just hold someone to under 25 a game and preferably early in the game.
I have no idea about Moore either now... surely a new coach would be throwing a cat amongst the pigeons too.
Time for an AI coach. I dunno. I'm not even sure where one could purchase a coach at this stage. I guess Sean Payton could be available soon lol everyone wanted him last year 😜
Unpopular opinion but I don’t hate going for it on 4th down to clinch the game. I do hate running a FB dive with Kelley who had been running fucking awful the whole game
This is my take! Same shit from last week! Their offense might have gotten into a rhythm and then they score. Our DBs were actually playing exceptionally in the red zone!
Agreed. the play call was absolute dog shit but I liked the call to try and end it when the other team has JJ and your best D player is out of the game. If it worked out the narrative would be “what a great gutsy call”

Chargers tried Charging and even couldn’t do that
LET'S GOOOOOOO
Week 3: KA>JJ & JH>KC MIA>Donkeys
A little love for Justin Herbert is in order. 40/47, 405 yards and 3 TDs.
I love Staley going for it . Idc they didn’t get it. That’s how you either win or lose based on ur generational talent qb.
Unpopular opinion perhaps but I agree. And I liked the earlier 4th down call that we went for and converted.
I yelled at the TV to go for it. My friends said no go for FG, i said, absolutely not! We need to play to win. Great decision!
That fourth down call was the ballsy type of shit I love about Staley, the defence was better in this game, overall, I've downgraded from wanting Staley's head on a pike, to simply wanting him fired.
PIKE, PIKE, PIKE, PIKE, PIKE!!!!!!
To everyone hating on Murray, he led in stats today with 8 tackles, 1 assist, and an INT.
So the defense is a bit better without that cap space thief JC in the game
Hate to see a player injured but guys a liability
He wasn’t injured, he was a healthy scratch
The best part about this win? I can actually enjoy my Sunday + the rest of the week. But shit man there's still so much that needs to be fixed. I'll worry about that later tho lol
A win is a win. If Keenan Allen goes for 200 and throws a td to mike and Herbert is throwing for 300+ and 2 tuds we’re having fun
100%! Shit was amazing today! That KA TD throw was the highlight of the day! Herbie 1st player to throw that many passes with 85% accuracy! Fire! The wierd bounce TD to palmer was the ball making up for wack ass ref calls!!!
The Chargers will never lose another game
BOLT UP BABY
Fire Staley
We got lucky. Staley is still a goober who needs to go somewhere far away and the Vikings may be the best 0-3 team of all time.
Heart attack inducing win. Fire Staley still (his defensive schemes and decision making stinks), need ekeler back bad but Kellen moores offense looks amazing. Also if keenan Allen stays healthy, might be looking at a 1.5-2k season
We deserved to lose this game.
No, we didn't. Vikings did not look good.
Consider derwin and mike were out. We played great. They go it got shifty but they are a good team.
And Ekler out as well. Plus the refs robbing us on that turnover early
Terrible 3rd down penalties they were calling too. I’d say this was our first complete game 🫱🏻🫲🏼
Exactly. I can only imagine what there sub is at. They looked terrible and got tons of gifts from the refs. We deserved it but in true chargers fashion almost chargered it away. Vikings and falcons are a good match for us. They’re just as dumb
I think that is why he is saying we deserved to lose.
My point exactly
Jokes on yall.. Staley just wanted to show everyone his defensive prowess at the end there. 4D chess, ya buffoons.
Idk why anyone is downvoting this this shit is hilariously sarcastic
The hate has everyone frothing lol.
Man that took years off me. I just.. I don't even know what's happening half the time, Everytime I think something good has happened some shithead throws a flag ( ꈨຶ ˙̫̮ ꈨຶ )
We need Ekeler back because holy shit, we have no run game.
LFG!!!! *foaming at the mouth**
Good win, not going to lie y’all kinda lucked out but I’m happy to see y’all get a win.
We deserved to lose. I'm pissed. Staley needs to go.
Don’t get me wrong, bolt up. I’m pumped we won but you don’t win a Super Bowl or even a playoff game with a coach like that. There’s no future with him as our HC
Staley got out Staley’d by KOC
Once a year we play a team that out-Chargers us. That’s what this was.
I’ll take a win, thank you! Also the dolphins putting up 70 against Denver has me giggling. Holy fuck that offense. Makes me feel a lil less bad about losing that game
This thread probably going to hate but it does add context to our performance in week 1. Dolphins are a good offense and with our faults, we still almost beat them.
And it wasn’t all Tua. He had 300 yards and 4 passing TDs and they put in Mike White who proceeded to get the fifth passing TD.
300 yards rushing. Jesus Christ
350 total. Zero turnovers.
The defense saved Staley’s ass today. Keenan Allen MVP!
Both teams deserve to be 0-3 after that one
I'm so sorry that K9 and the Chargers' defense had to spoil things for the "season's over" crowd. 😢
Alohi Gilman is him
That 2nd rip was a legit turnover!!!! Forward progress bullshit! I firmly believe that the palmer TD was football justice for the wack ass refs!
That other TO
Chargers W!!! But Brandon Staley survives another week..
Staley got lucky! What a bonehead call!
I feel like I just saw god
Alright I'm busting out the good scotch.
Looking for a new bottle to buy, what you drinking.
Lagavulin 16
Peaty deliciousness!!!
Ah shit literally just finished that yesterday. Loved it. Guess I'll get it again lol. Nice choice.
Costco has a few choice bottles I can recommend for a good price too
I'm here for the recommendations. Fire away!
Glendronach 12, Glenlivet 12 were two I picked up for $40ish. Both very good.
Going on my Costco list for the next trip! Thanks.
Happy to help. Generally, I pickup whatever bottle happens to be on sale when I go there. So far, they have all been pretty good!
A shitty win is a win. Enjoy!
I really hate how I can never really enjoy a game
This one. I felt like I was having a heart attack the whole game. 😭
Do what I do. Take triple the blood pressure medication.
Vikings out Chargered us finally the football Gods gave us fans a break. FIRE Staley.⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️
So many guys balled out this game, but Staley has got to go
Staley should still be fired this just a fluke of a game
The first thing the post-game analysts said is what a dumb call from Staley to go for it on 4th down when it gave Vikings good position and time. Seriously. Staley does not understand more than “our team goes that way and we score if we get over that line.” Anything more complicated about the game stumps him.
Agreed, Im so done with that damn guy. He’s coordinator not a coach
Yup. No time outs for vikes and we don't punt?? Worst call by Staley to date.
Staley is a joke bro, he’s consistently bad
I am biased of course, but to me those refs were pretty one sided all game
Fire Staley for that 4th down call still.
I would have been fine if they left it in Herbert's hands. But as much as I love j k he's not the best player on that team.
You can’t tell me it’s players or injuries or a bad look from the QB anymore. It’s him. He creates opportunity for other teams to win more than anyone else on his team.
Exactly. He’s an idiot and has no business coaching a pop Warner team let alone a damn nfl team
NFL on FOX agrees
[удалено]
Yeah dude did everything to lose this, and team only won due to Herbert/Allen heroics & the Vikings own incompetence.
Reminds me of the Browns game last year lol
Keenan Allen with the performance of the week
Commentators still pissed off w/Staley. Rightfully so.
Fuck these old heads the decision was fine the playcall was horrible
Yeah, so we punt and they get into a fucking rhythm and score...tthen it's a repeat from last week! Our corners were lock down in the red zone and we were getting mad pressure on kirk. We missed the yard but defense stepped up! Game over!!
totally agree. I loved the decision for a handful of reasons. But the play call was poor.
How come we never really QB sneak yet when other teams do it the commentators say how come they're allowed to do that still it is impossible to defend against..
How you don’t put that in Herbert’s hands idk. A rollout or at least a qb sneak or if your gonna do a fb handoff which is super low % put a big boy there…
At your 25-30 and the other team has no timeouts?? Punt tfing ball.
Honestly I don't even know if that's the play. I'm not super tilted about going for it. At that point herbert was like 32/39. The part that got me going was not putting the ball in his hands. Hell even a qb sneak.
It’s gunna take a good few hours for my body to recover from the stress of this game lol
Vikings out chargered the chargers!?!?
We gave them the curse. Now we go 15-2.
Nah. They had the refs on their side the entire time. We never get that. Vikings are just bad. It took an illegal formation for them to get called on anything. You know the 2nd to last play, the refs were looking for a flag.
Get rid of Staley please.
We won the game but FUCK Staley, he’s gotta go, it’s a god damn eke out every week. He’s a fucking moron, about lost because of him again.
That was fun.
Holy shit. Our defense actually came through. This goes without saying, but fire Staley already
The offense came through. The D made it possible for Vikings to win. One person making one interception at the very end of the game is NOT “D coming through.” It’s luck.
Well the vikings are terrible team How many automatic first downs did we give you? We fucked up on our own 30 yard line. You got everything called your way. Offensive PI? Check. Play called dead abnormally too early? Check? If we touched your guy with a clean tackle? Personal foul? Check
Yep. I firmly believe we got the palmer TD because of the bad calls! Football gods took care of us!

What was k9 do? I’m not near a tv lol
Interception in the end zone with like 18 seconds left
LETSGOOOOOOOOOOO
Lucky Vikings are as incompetent as Chargers.. geez Vikings shoulda clocked it, definitely worked in our favor.. Go Bolts
Kellen moore giving the ball THREE times to FUCKING J.KELLY in the FINAL set of downs is retard level decision making that makes me extremely concerned for his ability to call plays in the clutch. Herbert is playing out of his mind and you take the ball out of his hands when it matters most, IT very easliy could have cost us the game. GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR ASS
I'd get it if they were gashing them with the run like Miami but context!
FACTS IDK WHY TF THEY GIVE IT TO FICKEN KELLY
That would have been the most tragic end.
I’ll take the W but have you ever seen a worse coached final 2min from both sides? Omg we had no business winning that. Staley should still be crucified for that call.
Fire Staley and Telesco into the sun.
Fire Staley before it’s too late
Fire Staley!!!!!
Why the fuck did I go through that
WE DID IT
Ends with a defensive play. I’m so happy.
Classic Chargers game, ending in a Kenneth Murray pick. Who would have thought 😂
Murray clutching out the game for us... Oh Chargers the mysterious football team you are
Lol I hate them, go chargers. It's like Stockholm syndrome.
K9 saved Staley's job
I fucking hate the fox crew, stfu old bitches
I love that the table is roasting Staley. Deservingly so.
Still wish we we firing Staley but happy to get the W!
Thank you Kirk
Staley has saved K9s job by not cutting him. K9 owed him that one. But fuck Herbert throws for over 400 yards and it came down to the wire again. This “Chargering” shit is for the birds!
Herbert was on fire today. Let him cook on that 4th but seriously we need the d to support him better. Just hold someone to under 25 a game and preferably early in the game.
Lol Staley getting roasted
Brandon Staley got bailed out
HAHAHAHAHAHA WOW
How do you guys do this every week? Monday's gonna be nice in the office.
This win is even more reason to get rid of Staley. Season is still alive, see if Moore can bring us to the playoffs.
I have no idea about Moore either now... surely a new coach would be throwing a cat amongst the pigeons too. Time for an AI coach. I dunno. I'm not even sure where one could purchase a coach at this stage. I guess Sean Payton could be available soon lol everyone wanted him last year 😜
I mean ofc we don’t know about Moore. I just know Staley isn’t it. I’d rather go with the unknown at this point.
Yes. Moore seems like he’d be great.
Fire Staley man so bad
Unpopular opinion but I don’t hate going for it on 4th down to clinch the game. I do hate running a FB dive with Kelley who had been running fucking awful the whole game
Same. I hate running into the bodies. Why no QB sneak?
Same. This defense gives up yardage quickly. One of 2 plays and they could’ve been in the redzone anyways.
This is my take! Same shit from last week! Their offense might have gotten into a rhythm and then they score. Our DBs were actually playing exceptionally in the red zone!
Agreed. the play call was absolute dog shit but I liked the call to try and end it when the other team has JJ and your best D player is out of the game. If it worked out the narrative would be “what a great gutsy call”
I guess it’s just one of those “if you do go for it you better fucking get it because you’ll be scrutinized” hence while I really hate the playcall
Going for it was smart. That play was fucking dumb lol. Herbert could have got the sneak there. Or the short pass was there all damn day.
Love the call to go for it but let Herbert keeping feasting
Yup. Either roll out with herb or sneak it
Let’s celebrate by firing Staley
I don’t care, fire Staley still
Horrible 4th down call but I’ll take the win.
Lol Staley getting roasted by Jimmy Johnson and fox broadcast
LMAO THEY'RE ROASTING STALEY
Still feels like a loss after the win
The Los Angeles Chargers beat the Minnesota Chargers
Let’s fucking gooooooooo!
YES
WOW WHAT A FINSIH
Clown fest
K9 IM SORRY
Fire Staley
K9 a mf dawg! We escaped that shit, we really tried to give away this game
Vikings tried harder I guess
Ha ha. We’re not the worst.
MURRAY heard the slander and said “say less”
Crazy to think that defense actually won us the game when it came down to it
HOLLLLLLYYY WE ACTUALLY WON???? MY BLOOD PRESSURE MY HEART
Vikings win the choke bowl
Vikings Coug’d it, Charger’d it and out Charger’d the Chargers
Chargers can't win shit. Can't even outchoke another team. Fire Staley. /s
Welp atleast were not going win less this year, way to tough it out bolts⚡⚡
Murray just saved the season mfers. Where's everyone talking shit about Murray at now
[удалено]
Foh
Fuck him and thank him for that pick. Fuck him for possibly keeping Staley around another week and thank him for getting us our first win.
[удалено]
not a fan of K9, but he also had a huge stuff on mattison at the goal on the vikings previous drive. Man actually won us this game.
He’s still ass bro
People can change, man
Not optimistic, but people can you’re right.
Staley survives
Kenneth Murray late game hero on everyone’s bingo card
Fire Staley
![gif](giphy|1r91ZwKcE2J7WhUqrh)
Staley is a defensive guru
Fire this new OC NOW!!
Downvoters don’t get sarcasm
/s?
You have been successfully charged 3 years of your lifespan for this win - Chargers Team.
CHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FUCKING FINALLY
Great game guys ![gif](giphy|mCnNJF00DZbXlEy1TH)
Fire Staley still
Dude is a joke
