Jim Harbaugh defends OC Mike McDaniel after Justin Herbert's struggles, Chargers fall to 0-4
The Los Angeles Chargers took a heavy loss to the Seattle Seahawks, dropping their record to 0-4. The offense, led by quarterback Justin Herbert, struggled significantly in the game. Herbert threw two interceptions, including one on the very first play of the game, which directly led to a touchdown for the Seahawks. The Chargers only had five completions for 36 yards in the first half, with Herbert missing three passes in the second half, accumulating only 144 yards.
Despite the offensive difficulties, head coach Jim Harbaugh is not considering firing offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel just four games into his tenure. Harbaugh praised McDaniel, stating, "He's a skilled coach, and we're going to keep growing." The Chargers face tough upcoming games against the Denver Broncos, Kansas City Chiefs, and Los Angeles Rams, all of which are undefeated or at least 2-2 at the moment.
