The Chargers are nearly finished with their first round of interviews of their head coaching vacancy.
It’s been quiet on who might be some front-runners for the job, but Sport Illustrated’s Albert Breer, who’s plugged in, laid out who he believes could be at the top of Los Angeles’ list in his latest mailbag.
Those two are Bills offensive coordinator Brian Daboll and Rams defensive coordinator Brandon Staley.
Breer mentioned the familiarity between Daboll and general manager Tom Telesco, as well as the success that he has had with Buffalo quarterback Josh Allen.
Daboll remains the current favorite for the position. How well he’s done with quarterbacks since his time at Alabama would mold well with maximizing Justin Herbert’s potential in this league.
The next coordinator mentioned was Staley. Staley has done a great job against some of the league’s top offenses, including this past weekend against the Seahawks.
If Staley is hired, he has a plan for the offense, which could include bringing one of San Francisco assistants Mike LaFleur and Mike McDaniel as his offensive coordinator.
LaFleur is the passing game coordinator and McDaniel is the running game coordinator.
