00:00Along the lines with the Chargers, though, you know I love finding crazy stats with it.
00:04Please.
00:04So, Char, after this debacle of a game, again, as they go 0-7 against the Rams,
00:10they have now gone 27 straight drives without a touchdown.
00:14That's the longest streak in the NFL since the 2024 Dolphins,
00:18who were coached by who?
00:21Mike McDaniel, the current offensive coordinator for the Chargers.
00:24That 2024 Dolphins went 30 straight drives without a touchdown.
00:28Chargers are getting very, very close to that record.
00:31They're the only winless team, aren't they?
00:35Yes.
00:36Worst start since 2000.
00:37And it's coming off of their bye.
00:40Yes.
00:41It was so incredible.
00:43There's this reporter, I'm blanking on the name,
00:46but he's the Chargers reporter for The Athletic,
00:50and he was pressing Jim Harbaugh at the post-game press conference.
00:56He was like, well, you keep saying there's going to be change.
00:59What's going on?
01:00Why are you being vague about it?
01:02And then Jim Harbaugh obviously gave his little vague answer again.
01:05Another question.
01:06Another one.
01:07On top of that, it was just, it was glorious.
01:09Because, but here's the thing at this point.
01:11At this point of the season, and John, maybe you have a different idea about this,
01:15I don't think it's all on him.
01:16I just really don't think it's all on McDaniel.
01:20Like, at this point, it's just a collective effort of just bad football.
01:24Justin Herbert, I've said this multiple times now,
01:28and we can talk about the receivers, and he doesn't have these weapons.
01:30We talk about that all the time.
01:32He is throwing the ball right directly to the defenders
01:36when they are right in front of a receiver.
01:39Or he's throwing it right into a zone coverage right at a linebacker.
01:42Or he's throwing it, you know, there's guys undercutting him,
01:45and it's like he doesn't even see their number.
01:48He doesn't even see that they're wearing the opposing team's uniform.
01:51And I have no understanding of how that keeps happening.
01:54When Justin Herbert was one of the five to six best quarterbacks in football
01:58over the past three to four years, I have zero idea why that keeps happening.
02:04I believe Mike McDaniel is still on the team as a shield
02:07because I do believe this is Jim Harbaugh's last year as an NFL head coach.
02:11Oh!
02:12So you've gotten it because we've talked about that before.
02:15You think the contract's just too big for him to not leave.
02:18But now you're there.
02:19I think – no, no, no, not leave.
02:21He's going to get kicked upstairs.
02:22I think he's going to still be a part of the organization.
02:25I think he will have it because the Spano's not going to pay him to not coach.
02:28They're going to make him bag groceries or something for the family.
02:31He's not going to do nothing.
02:34But he looks like he doesn't care.
02:36He looks –
02:37What?
02:37That fire, that fire he had coaching at Michigan, that fire he had coaching for San Diego,
02:44USD, I'm speaking of, that fire he had coaching the San Francisco 49ers,
02:49that light in his eyes is gone, buddy.
02:52That light's out.
02:53That light is dim.
02:54I don't know whether Michigan broke him or whether this season has kind of put him in a weird space.
02:59I know he's had some health issues as well.
03:02I don't think he comes back, man.
03:04And I think he's not firing people because he wants everybody to just get to the end of the season
03:07and keep it moving.
03:09Then McDaniel takes over as head coach next year.
03:12Well, that was probably the plan, but you can't do that now.
03:14No, you cannot.
03:16Oh, man.
03:17It's just unbelievable seeing 0-7 next to the charge.
03:21Think about how bad they play.
03:23And think about how bad he's looked as a coach.
03:26Yeah.
03:26Yeah.
03:26Like, they just have – it seems like they have no answer.
03:29There's no punch.
03:31Like you said, there's no energy.
03:32There's no verb.
03:33Like, they don't have that hardball intensity, that hardball mentality that all of his past teams have had,
03:39whether it's at Michigan or the 49ers or whatever.
03:41It's just not there.
03:42Like, guys aren't behind him.
03:44The message isn't going through.
