The Chargers will retain Mike McDaniel as their offensive playcaller despite a 0-6 start that includes a league-worst 15.0 points per game. Coach Jim Harbaugh reached the decision after the club conducted self-scouting during its Week 7 bye. The latest setback came in Week 6 when Los Angeles managed just six points and 259 total yards in a 22-6 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Justin Herbert has thrown eight interceptions, tying for the league lead, including multiple picks in recent weeks.
McDaniel joined the organization this offseason after four seasons as head coach of the Miami Dolphins, where he had overseen some of the league's most prolific units. His units once produced a 70-20 victory and more than 700 yards in a single contest. The Chargers brought him in to revitalize an attack that had struggled to score in the postseason, yet the early returns have fallen short of those expectations.
