Brandon Staley did an amazing job with the Los Angeles Chargers in the 2022 season. He managed to get a spot in the Super Wild Card round, but it was not going to be easy as they had to face the Jaguars, the NFC South champions.
The game started very easy for the AFC West squad. They had a very comfortable 27-point lead, but at the end of the second quarter the Jaguars scored a touchdown that changed everything.
From that moment, Jacksonville scored 24 points, while the Chargers only three. This gave the Jaguars the victory, which of course did not make Brandon Staley very happy.
“I’m hurting for everybody in that locker room,” Chargers coach Brandon Staley said after the game. “It’s a special group of guys. This is the toughest way that you can lose in the playoffs.”
Staley wants to return to LA next season to work with this group, but reports are also saying that the team could search for a more experienced head coach in order to work with one of the best rosters they have had in years.
