Jim Harbaugh Confirms Mike McDaniel Will Remain Chargers' Offensive Play-Caller
Los Angeles Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh has announced that Mike McDaniel will remain the offensive play-caller for the team as they prepare to face the Los Angeles Rams this Sunday. This decision comes after the Chargers did not make any changes during their Week 7 bye week.
Harbaugh expressed confidence in McDaniel's abilities, despite the Chargers' current 0-6 record and their struggles on offense, where they rank 28th in the NFL with an average of 287.2 yards per game and last in scoring with an average of 15 points per game. Quarterback Justin Herbert is also facing challenges, ranking last among qualified passers with a 29.3 adjusted QBR and tied for the most turnovers this season.
As the Chargers prepare for their upcoming game, they are listed as 6.5-point underdogs against the Rams. There have been discussions about potential changes in the coaching staff if the team does not improve, but Harbaugh has reiterated his trust in McDaniel and the coaching team.
