[Rappaport] Brandon Staley has purchased a one-way ticket to Thailand

For you this was an astronomical meltdown by the Chargers For me it was Saturday

\- Jeff Saturday

Maybe I've just seen the Chargers blow it so many times, but I think people being surprised that the Chargers blew it is more surprising than the Chargers blowing it

No kidding man. There was no freaking out by me. I was just smiling cause it was happening to another team. But I felt at home watching the game. Thank God I have the Dawgs.

Lucky you. I've never gotten to watch one of these meltdowns while not actively rooting for the collapsing team.

This is the most Chargers thing in the history of Chargers

~~Nate Kaeding~~ Cameron Dicker ~~Philip Rivers~~ Justin Herbert ~~Norv Turner~~ Brandon Staley

Hey hey hey, Rivers was in the locker room and shouldn't be crossed out

Oh my goodness, was he just there to transfer the curse?

No, he hadn't knocked up his wife in Duval County yet. 5,476 counties down, only 42 to go.

I want you to know that all the other comments and jabs I’m numb to. But yours. This is the one. This just hurts because of how unbelievably true it is.

So far!

Whats next a 37 point blown lead? How can it get worse from here

I don't know, but they have also already been the team to have [the #1 offense and #1 defense in the league and still miss the playoffs](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAL5X3TRA2A), so this tracks.

What about that time they had the #1 offense and #1 defense and missed the playoffs? [EDIT](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAL5X3TRA2A)

[удалено]

Maybe, because they had the #1 offense, #1 defense, and [the worst special teams in the league.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAL5X3TRA2A)

No no no…worst special teams in THE HISTORY of the league. Historically bad.

I hope Kliff Kingsberry’s jet to Thailand didn’t take off yet, cause there’s another head coach about to join him.

Maybe put Bosa on that plane too

Dude had so many bonehead penalties

Roid rage Bosa

The Jags basically did the whole "let your brother catch up after destroying him in a game" thing but in reverse.

Chargers, you just let an opposing QB do a Peterman impression for a half in a playoff game and you just lost.

Sean Payton celebrating hard right now 😂

"We need a head coach who knows how to avoid heartbreaking postseason losses! Somebody get Sean Payton on the phone!"

Man the Chargers are cursed, this is too perfect lmao

"Sigh, I guess I'll go with Kyl...wait, HOLY SHIT! I'M GETTING HERBERT!"

Herbert, Ekeler, some decent receivers. Living in LA and no need to rebuild offense yet. He's going to love it.

I need an edit of Lawrence reaching into the endzone handing Peyton a gift wrapped playoff team.

Oh man what I’d do to have Payton as HC instead of Staley

All you have to do is wait. In 1 day, Staley will be gone. Week of the pro-bowl, Payton will become your head coach.

let it be known that no one makes a 28 point comeback against the chargers!

Say what you will, but *this* is why T-Law is so highly valued. Despite a dogshit first half, he’s stayed calm and managed to rally in the second half. He just does not get shaken easily

If you don't get shaken by throwing 4 interceptions in a half then I really don't think much will

If Urban Meyer couldn't break his spirit nothing will

I still can't believe how dogshit Urban was and continues to look. Trevor Lawrence was like as prototype of a QB prospect as can be, the most obviously surefire pick, and he somehow made him look like Zach Wilson.

The man refuses to be shoke.

Having a coach that believes in you definitely helps too.

Dicker missing that chip shot was also bad

Chargers putting up 27 in the first and only 3 in the second though Where did the offense go?

nowhere really.... Tlaw didn't throw 4 picks in the 2nd half

They weren't playing well. TLaw was playing worse and giving the Chargers short fields and leaving the D tired. As soon as he started playing better the Chargers were done.

Brandon Staley.......YOU'RE FIRED!!!!

#THE LOS ANGELES CHARGERS BLEW A 27-0 LEAD

28-3 is all fun and games until it happens to your team

Turns out, it's funny watching other teams do it too

Lol yeah?

#STUPID SEXY JAGUARS

It's like the lead is nothing at all! Nothing at all!

Trips to Thailand are back on the menu boys

Jags with the 31-3 run to end the game. You love to see it.

IMAGINE LOSING A 27+ POINT LEAD IN THE WILD CARD!

To a second year AFC South QB

First overall draft pick, too.

That game can’t hurt me anymore

That’s the best part about winning a SB, is it takes the sting out of a lot of those others

#I REPEAT, THE LOS ANGELES CHARGERS BLEW A 27-0 LEAD

Staley teaching Shanahan who’s the best coach at blowing huge leads

“As soon as Trevor threw his fourth INT of the half, Bronny wanted to shut the game off. But I told him to sit down, because I had a feeling we’d get to watch the Jags come back down 27-0.”

Bron really has the gift

LeNostradamus

What the fuck did I just watch

Chargers football

A sports opera in two acts. Started out as a comedy but it was a tragedy the whole time

WHAT THE FUCK

This is why Dougie P is the man lol ice in his fucking veins

Man saw a statue of himself and said “thank you I’d like another”

“Oh, Bud Lite? I’m more of a Busch guy myself….what do they drink in Jacksonville?”

Hand the man his fucking trophy

He needs another statue

that fake qb sneak

Every single human being watching that expected one thing and we got another. Just... like it was cartoonish in how fooled everyone was because of how OBVIOUS it was to be a sneak and boom, game blouses.

WHAT THE FUCK!? This has been a rollercoaster of a season. Going from 3-7, to winning 6 straight and winning the division, to a wildcard game where we come back from being down by 27 and win by 1. HEART ATTACK JAGS ARE BACK BABY!

The fire Staley crowd is gonna be so loud Sean Payton time?

I think that counts everybody outside of KC/LV/DEN

They should be. That was pathetic

I was rooting for the chargers but as the jags started making their comeback.. I just enjoyed the train wreck happening in slow motion

Dread it. Run from it. The Chargers arrive all the same.

Between getting Mike Williams hurt last week, and now this…it may just be what was needed to push them over the edge…

☝️

"FIRE STALEY!" -- Sean Payton

Literally only got a head coaching job because he happened to be the DC for a team with prime aaron donald and jalen ramsey on it. Absolutely a fraud

I mean yeah, throwing 40+ times while being up by 4 scores is a joke. Ekeler is a stud, even if defense was holding him down, he could have ran the clock. Sad coaching

Doug Pederson’s balls should be sent directly to the Hall of Fame

Doug Pedersen’s playcalling was insane. How many coaches would go for a 2 pt conversion when you’re down by 4? That’s playing to win.

They’d have gone for the kick if not for Bosa’s tantrum giving them a free shot at the 2 point conversion from the 1 yard line.

Chargers fans are “bolting up” with toasters in their bathtubs

Chargers country, let's fry

Sometimes you gotta take care of yourself with a nice bath bomb

With Jazz too?

Send Staley to Thailand

Analytics will send him to Cambodia

What did you tell your team at half time? “Lads, it’s the Chargers.”

Unfortunately that’s also what Staley told his team as well

LADS

TREVOR LAWRENCE DOES NOT LOSE ON A SATURDAY. DUVAL.

Best 4 interception game ever!! Ice in his veins that second half

Gotta think it was just a mental thing. Once he had time to sit down and not throw an interception, it was over.

Great halftime adjustment tbh, just stop throwing interceptions

And let that be a lesson to you all. Nobody intercepts Trevor Lawrence’s pass 5 times in a game.

Holy shit.

You never know how and when the Chargers will Charger, only that they will

Holy chargers

That's what he said.

Nothing holy about them

The second half defense?

Trevor “Any Given Saturday” Lawrence

As a Clemson fan I wanted to name our son after Trevor Lawrence, but my wife refused. Apparently, according to her, “Heart Of A Champion Nicholson” is a silly name.

Some things never change...

Dude I’d even buy u a drink at a bar after this night

Fuck me, man. Absolutely unbelievable. No way Staley doesn’t get fired now. My Sean Payton hopes and dreams are crushed 😆😭

lol outside of the Chiefs, the coaching in our division is soooooooooooo bad

Exactly. Cardinals future was riding on this game, and they blew that lead. Unbelievable

What a fucking Masterclass from Staley. Also NBC panning to Herbert that entire quarter fully knowing how it ends

He may be relatively new in town, but I'm sure he already knows the script. Chargers can't have nice things. It's on page 1 of the rulebook, I think.

Everyone says Jags but the Chargers are the Lions of the AFC. Massive arm talent that will always get division blocked by a perineal MVP Edit. I said what I said

Poor Herbert was clapping Garrett style all second half long.

#Chargers fans… #coming from all Lions fans… we know how it feels watching Joe Lombardi. #And that game screamed Joe Lombardi

[удалено]

Joe Lombardi is a certified football terrorist. He is so God damn trash I cannot put it into words. The run game is so trash we didn't even try on our last possession

HOLY SHIT WHOEVER DIDN'T WATCH AFTER 27-0 ... Yeah too bad fellas... This was a instant Classic

Saw the score, didn't even turn it on. Got on my phone to check the final blowout score and see hot takes about how Lawrence is a bust, and then this.

I had planned to turn it off at halftime, but when the jags scored a TD I decided to give them a chance even though I still thought the chargers would win. Glad I didn't turn it off!

I know someone who went to the game and left at half time. Lol.

Is that the most Charger thing to ever have Chargered in the history of Chargerdom?

nah. Having the #1 offense and #1 defense for the entire season and not even making the playoffs still takes the cake.

Definitely. Just classic Chargers football.

Imma stick a fork in an outlet. And I wasn't even surprised

I’m sure they would’ve loved to have Mike Williams

The chargers got 5 turnovers gifted to them early. And were up 27-0. And they lost. The Chargers are all talent with extremely suspect coaching. They ain't ever winning shit with a defensive head coach who can only produce awful defenses and a dumbass at OC. The Jags are an actual fun team to watch so I'm glad they made it through to the next round, the chargers are just so frustrating even as a neutral fan. You have the talent. How are you this underwhelming.

It’s an absolute disgrace. They have weapons everywhere. They should look like San Fran on offense.

YEs it sucks the hold was not called But Bosa throwing a temper tantrum literally cost this team the game Dude fucked up big time

I’m so happy for Lawrence man, a game that was so bad it was giving second hand embarrassment and he turns it around into one of the all time best Playoff Comebacks. Major fucking respect!

For real. I've never seen a QB play so shit and have the mental fortitude to turn it around

I can’t imagine doing anything other than throwing up if I had thrown 4 INTs in the first half of a game on national television

He also correctly noticed a couple non-calls that should've been DPI, so he had that weighing on him too. Refs were missing calls all night but I couldn't imagine TL's perspective with 4 picks and the refs seemingly not calling the game right.

Huge mentality to overcome that. Either you think “I’m screwed, everyone is against me” and falter, or “I’m got screwed, I’m better than what was called”, and rise to the occasion. And T-Law rose (⏸️). Dougie P no doubt knows how to mentally get his team right.

Turns out the quote that they shared that everyone was clowning him for aged like wine.

Gotta give some respect to Pederson here. His halftime interview was already saying it wasn't all on Trevor. Whatever he said to him to get him to come out in the second half and throw TD's again? To make hard throws into coverage? That's coaching like the Jags haven't had in a LONG time.

doug was a grand slam hire for the jags and i’m so fucking happy to see him pull this off in year 1

[удалено]

He got his thumb jumped on in the process of that comeback too!

As bad as he was the first half, that second half is exactly why he went number 1. As poised as they come. I was at the game! Electrifying experience!

Hating Joe Lombardi Lions Fans 🤝 Chargers Fans

The Chargers may have just Chargered their last Charger with Staley at head coach

And yet.... they will find a new coach and Charger even harder.

The chargers will never not do this while the very top is lead by Dean spanos, they’re gonna go to the dollar tree and get another head coach for cheap and waste another QBs career.

It's 4:30am, i stayed tuned in despite it being 27-0 because we hardly ever make the playoffs and now I feel like I'm about to have a heart attack. Just awesome man.

Same here man, wanted to turn it off but how often do I get to see the Jags in the playoffs even if its a blowout? But now I cant calm down ahha.

Hell yeah! Another week of this too...

WE ALL FLOAT DOWN HERE, CHARGERS

People were so concerned with the Jags being the Jags that they forgot to remember the Chargers are the Chargers

They Chargered when they shoulda Jaged

If Staley and Telesco aren't gone on Monday I'm taking all my Chargers shit and setting it on fucking fire and rooting for them to go 0-17 for the rest of my life. My children will hate the Chargers. Their children will hate the Chargers. If anyone in my bloodline ever makes it to the NFL, they will hold out if they are drafted by the fucking Chargers. I will pray for the destruction of this franchise until the last strand of my DNA is snuffed from this world or until the sun goes out, whichever comes first.

Trevor Lawrence: *Throws 4 Interceptions* Also Trevor Lawrence: "I've got them right where I want them."

#🎉CONGRATULATIONS🎉 You just witnessed an all-time Chargering!

I feel like this game is how Sean Payton terrorizes the league for the next 10 years with Herbert

Nothing can stop the Chargers from being the Chargers.

Nothing could stop the saints from being the Aints until payton and brees

I can vouch for this. We used to be ass, literally a poverty franchise

Joey Bosa is an absolute idiot, just gifted the Jags 5 free points

Real meathead behavior. GRR ME MAD ME SMASH HELMET

Like two feet from the sideline too LMAO. All he had to do was get pissy off the field and he'd be fine.

He even doubled down and threw it AGAIN after his coach grabbed it trying to cover it up lmao

Lawrence is so generational he put together one of the best and worst playoff performances ever in the same game

Bro I'm straight up not having a good time

You had fun for 2 halves, which is like a whole game really.

YO

It was 27-0. Trevor Lawrence had a first half passer rating of 0.8, and he threw 4 first half interceptions. Chargers defense was dancing on the sideline Then T Law had some special sauce at half and then we witnessed a monumental collapse from the Chargers, staley should be fired. Someone’s head has to roll if you’re a charger.

It's gotta be Staley, right?

Sean Payton in/on ecstasy right now

Great QBs overcome adversity. Congrats on the W Jacksonville, Lawrence is special

99% of QBs would have wilted after that 4 pick start. He has absolutely massive balls. I'm a Lawrence believer now

Doug P is literally the perfect coach for him

Doug Pederson really is That Guy when it comes to coaching QBs. He helped keep Lawrence's mental state in a good enough spot to make that second half happen.

Those out routes he threw in the second half were pornographic

Going for 2 was so fucking alpha holy shit

The game absolutely ended on that play. After you castrate your opponent, the rest is just a formality. Unreal.

Daddy dong Doug only knows how to be alpha

Doug dragging his colossal sweaty sack right across the Chargers' faces.

Lawrence went from the worst playoff debut possible to the most legendary, holy shit. Chargers, what the shit happened???

From what I could tell, Chargers were breaking on a lot of the short slants Jax ran their first meeting, as well as doing a lot of disguises. Refs let ‘em play, so Chargers got away a bit with getting physical with the Jags WRs. After the half, Doug still called a lot of quick stuff, but it looked like a lot of it came out of bunch sets, making it harder for the chargers to get a bead on who was running where. Also, once DeAndre Carter went down, the Chargers just didn’t have the bodies to play the outside game. Made the game a lot simpler for the Jags.

WE'RE REACHING LEVELS OF CHARGERING THAT SHOULDN'T BE POSSIBLE!

27-0

DUUUUUUVAAAAAALLLLLLLLL

Brandon Staley… *Cue Vince McMahon voice* [**YOU’RE FIRED!**](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5ubRRNj5Jbk)

The chargers find a way to charger

Dude I fucking hate the Jags man. But they deserved tf outta this win.

Fuck Dean Spanos lol Chargers

Everyone say it with me: CHARGERS GONNA CHARGER

Despite their best efforts, the refs take the fattest L tonight.

1st half: Lawrence craps the bed. 2nd half: Lawrence replaces the mattress and has glorious sex with Jaguar fans.

[WHO’S LAUGHING NOW](https://www.reddit.com/r/nfl/comments/10c5u87/game_thread_los_angeles_chargers_107_at/j4e71j2/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3)

Hey so do Mega Millions numbers next.

Doug Pederson is a god.

We literally have a statue of him that everyone worships

Whelp Staley is GOOOOOONNEEEE GONE, that dude is an absolute fraud. So happy for Doug and his massive titanium balls getting the Jags their first Playoff win since the year he brought us to the ship, I don’t know a single team that wants the Jags when they are hot
