Chargers' Mike McDaniel admits offense has helped cost Chargers games
Chargers offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel takes full accountability for the struggling offense amid their 0-3 start.
Chargers coordinator Mike McDaniel has admitted that his offense has contributed to the team's poor start to the season. Speaking to reporters on Thursday, McDaniel acknowledged his share of responsibility for the slow start, particularly on offense. He emphasized that he is fully responsible and does not attempt to avoid blame.
McDaniel took the position of offensive coordinator for the Los Angeles Chargers earlier this year after being fired as the head coach of the Miami Dolphins. Despite the high expectations for a turnaround, with Justin Herbert at quarterback, the offense has been struggling. McDaniel, who was not minimizing the situation, admitted that it is unacceptable and that the team ranks low in several offensive categories, including total offense, passing yards per game, rushing yards per game, and points per game.
He stated that his job now is to ensure the results the team wants to see on the field and that he is living in reality rather than hope. The Chargers have a chance to demonstrate their improvement against a strong defense in their upcoming game against the Seattle Seahawks.
