Best chargers podcast out here.. it’s cool to see your content starting to clipped on other socials.. i was just scrolling on Twitter and found a 5 min clip I was so turnt for yall💙
This is the only Chargers podcast I’d buy stock in. I seldom disagree with your Chargers takes. I’ve been a fan for over 35 years, but if this team hires Wilkes I may walk. You have Harbaugh, Vrabel, and potentially Belichick available and you F it up with Wilkes.
Hi guys, You are the absolute best charger podcast out there. The only reason I’m sad the season is over because we wont be hearing for you for the off season. Unless you continue your podcast through the offseason, are yall planning on doing so? Also is there any way else I can support your show? Have you guys ever thought about about selling merch or starting a patreon? Please keep the authenticity and speaking for us charger fans. Also I forgot to say this in the last show but please do the hot dog challenge the first week of play offs I don’t want to wait till the season is over to watch the funny episode 😂 Also please continue to do bets next season- that “no shirt” episode because you lost the bet was one of the funniest thumbnails ever 😂
Thank you, we try to say it how we see it so that means a lot. We’ll continue to do shows during the off season, probably two a week. We haven’t talked about merch but if enough people would want that then we can make that happen 👌🏼
I’d rather see Mario eat the hot dogs cuz I feel like Dad Pele will just chow through them too quickly. He’ll probably cook an extra 4 hotdogs for when the show is over.
They should wait for at least a couple of weeks because there's this new rule for in-person interviews. The official head coach interview resolution's anti-tampering policy as announced by the league reads as follows: "Prohibit clubs from conducting in-person Head Coach interviews with candidates who are employed by other NFL clubs until after the conclusion of all Divisional Playoff games. Prior to the conclusion of Divisional Playoff games, hiring clubs are permitted to conduct in-person Head Coach interviews with candidates who are employed by the hiring club or who are not employed in the NFL."
dave - i’ve been saying for the longest time , the reason the chargers always split with the raiders and broncos is they get out “ toughed “ … chargers always have the better roster but drop games to then due to physicality … telescos rosters aways scream soft , never brought in guys who we’re scrappy .
Let’s all take a moment to thank the tank commander Goff smith for his efforts… beautifully executed tank done in chargers fashion so nobody would notice. Amazing work👏
What do YOU mean ? Just another prefect 3 games of them being them self's to close out the year ....LOL [ 7 ] games this 2023 season of a LOST game by 3 points or less , TIED the 1938 CHC . Cardinals NFL record , who did in in less games , then these guys played .
As somebody who was born and lives in west Baltimore.. I can confirm it is Gotham City down here😂😂😂 I use to live LA and when they use to try and warn about crime I just say “I’m from Baltimore” oh nvm bro 😂
I think that Jim's mom's comment was related to the Ronney Rule, tbh. Teams can't start the interview process in earnest for two weeks... pretty much means Jom can't make a decision until then anyway.
I'm so confused about the timeline of hiring a head coach. I've read a bunch of so-called reputable reporters but someone please tell me what the deal is with an NFL team hiring a non-NFL coach. @davepalet says he's annoyed about Harbaugh taking so much time, but can the Chargers even hire him now if they wanted to? What's the rule differences between hiring someone already in the NFL vs Non-NFL? I have read that no matter who the Chargers hire, they can't do it until after January 21 when the divisional round is over, is this true? Someone please help me out and explain in simple words because I'm (unfortunately) an idiot. Thank you for the podcast, one of my favorites!!
Maybe During the Draft if WR Harrison one First 4 picks? Chargers Trade Back with Chargers with Falcons who Might Draft a QB? #5 Before NYG who also want a QB? Chargers Ask for TE Kyle Pitts (Contract up 2026) & Maybe Give a 4th? Chargers Move to #8 & take WR ROME OBUNZE (Washington). He Can Do Jump Balls & Deep Threat?
You guys are all right I been a Charger fan since the 70's and still am but the Spanos family been picking bad coaches it's time to GO get Jim Harbaugh best f--Ken candidate to coaches the Chargers pay the man!! what ever he wants!! F--k it's time for the chargers to get a Superbowl trophy 🏆Now is the time
Not sure why you guys are mad at Harbaugh for wanting to take time to enjoy being with his family…..teams aren’t allowed to make hires until after the Divisional round of the playoffs so him taking a couple weeks while we REQUEST and Do interviews is no problem at all. We should be done with them by late January
Guys serious question. What would you do if Harbaugh, Vrabel, and Johnson were still available and they hire Antonio Pierce. And you hear reports that all 3 of them were interested in the job? Sounds like something the Spanoses would do.😂😂😂
I don't think the Chargers would hire AP. He's never even been a coordinator. Those guys are playing on emotion. The Chargers need more than emotion at this stage.
Joking but…….the Chargers went soft as soon as their uniforms got soft. Check it, 2007 on with the white helmets we started regressing in the physicality dept. Seriously though, 100% agree, need a coach to develop a tougher culture. Or, at least. A culture.
I disagree, Harbaugh is worth the wait. Just tell him the job is his if he wants it. He doesn’t need to interview. At this point I’d be disappointed if the Chargers can’t bring in Harbaugh. I wanted him as HC back in 2020. I think the entire fan base knows that he can turn this culture and franchise around. I have no reservations about Jim Harbaugh coaching this team. I love the way his teams play ball. Physically and mentally tough, smashmouth brand of football that still wins championships. Pay that man his money and let him bring in all the assistants he wants. Next get him a GM that shares the same vision of the team and he’ll bring the Chargers their first Lombardi trophy.
That’s out of respect for Giff being the interim HC. That’s pretty standard for most teams that have an interim HC. I wouldn’t read much into that move.
Mike vrabel then trade bosa and maybe something else get Derick Henry draft Bowers or call the giants check on saquon need a instant power back veteran to soften defenses up and get easy downs
@joshpalet I just don't know how we're gonna fill a roster to be competitive with 7 or 8 picks (8 if we trade back). The coach would have to be Harbaugh or Vrabel unless some miracle Tomlin leaves. Plus are we gonna really let Gilman walk as well?
@@markcatlin8533 I hear you, I just see that 40M as hurting the team more than it helps even if Mack's production is great next year. Plus who knows if Mack wants to finish out his career with the Chargers. I would keep Gilman forsure.
None top Nick Saban taking Ted Ginn Jr as his first pick as a Dolphins HC. Reason when asked why. "He comes from a good family ". Total ruined the Fins than bailed like the Colts of old in the middle of the night to Alabama lol
The chiefs next year will be there for the taking broncos in disorey raiders no QB we can win the division next year if we get the coach right and draft well
Vabrel great coach but it's a no from me...he was doing the "lights out" celebration mid field after patriots eliminated us years ago. I still hate the guy
Youguys think Herbert is better than he really is... He is passive aggressive and not a leader.. If he was so great, he wouldn't they have more wins.. It's hilarious how great you guys think Herbert is... He a losing qb, what am I missing here.
He’s a franchise QB. We don’t think he’s the best but he’s definitely a top QB in this league that’s been on a team plagued by injuries with bad coaching. Do you disagree?
Let Herbert have [ 3 ] , 1, 000 + yarders in a season , like Burrow , Like Tua x 2 & Hurts x2 has had & get BACK to me ? PS and Herbert has had just [ 3 ] in his WHOLE NFL career , not 3 in ANY 1 season ?
I thought we couldn't hire a coach until after January 21st? Because of the Rooney Rule and playoffs due to it being unfair to coaches in the playoffs and somehow minorities. To me, it's more insulting to be called in as a minority for an interview that's just for show. Mario, you had Beetlejuice as a major. That blamed everything on poor Gary Indiana. Then Chicago elected a major with the same policies. Don't matter what side of the political aile you're on. Doing the same thing over and over is insanity. There had to be a better Democrat candidate than what was elected, wasn't there?
@davepalet So, technically, Harbaugh can take two weeks to decide because that's how long he has to accept the contract we hopefully already worked out with his agent.

Thank you!
Thank you so much.

I don’t want to wait till the season is over to watch the funny episode 😂
Also please continue to do bets next season- that “no shirt” episode because you lost the bet was one of the funniest thumbnails ever 😂
Yes, are you doing more in off season?
Thank you, we try to say it how we see it so that means a lot. We’ll continue to do shows during the off season, probably two a week. We haven’t talked about merch but if enough people would want that then we can make that happen 👌🏼
We'll be here the entire year.
heyooo best chargers pod by farrrr, you guys should do a show with a listener joins in !
My favorite podcast to watch at work. 🤙🏼
Thank you.
Thank you
Jim Harbaugh - Mike Vrabel - Ben Johnson
In that order. NOBODY else.
I’m with you
I'm with you. it better be one of those guys, in that order.
Location location location whatever coach that wins a Superbowl for the chargers will be a legend
Yes , MOE / Dave I agree , the show should be at least 1hour LONG on the Hot dog bet show !.....LOL
Hello , Larry , Curly & Moe ! lets GOOOOO !
I’d rather see Mario eat the hot dogs cuz I feel like Dad Pele will just chow through them too quickly. He’ll probably cook an extra 4 hotdogs for when the show is over.
Facts
If they don’t hire Vrabel or Harbaugh I’m done. I understand how you feel. Been hard being a fan for to long
They should wait for at least a couple of weeks because there's this new rule for in-person interviews.
The official head coach interview resolution's anti-tampering policy as announced by the league reads as follows:

Prior to the conclusion of Divisional Playoff games, hiring clubs are permitted to conduct in-person Head Coach interviews with candidates who are employed by the hiring club or who are not employed in the NFL."
harbaugh has an edge over vrabel because he's on the offensive side. he's a known QB developer and justin needs that help.
💯
An edge hahah no he has a entire football field on Vrabel. Vrabel has proved what to who as a HC?
@@castortroysfaceoffsportsca9012 you don't think Vrabel is a good head coach?
dave - i’ve been saying for the longest time , the reason the chargers always split with the raiders and broncos is they get out “ toughed “ … chargers always have the better roster but drop games to then due to physicality … telescos rosters aways scream soft , never brought in guys who we’re scrappy .
Being outcoached every game don't help much either.
@@richbutler7828The Dolphins didn’t hang 70 points because they were tougher.
@@Zetler I think your Lost i never said anything about Tougher! Flake Off.
I agree, I would love to have a tough element.
Vrabel is a very interesting opportunity, I think I am with Mario he might be my #1
Let’s all take a moment to thank the tank commander Goff smith for his efforts… beautifully executed tank done in chargers fashion so nobody would notice. Amazing work👏
Hahaha
What do YOU mean ? Just another prefect 3 games of them being them self's to close out the year ....LOL [ 7 ] games this 2023 season of a LOST game by 3 points or less , TIED the 1938 CHC . Cardinals NFL record , who did in in less games , then these guys played .

I'm with Dave if they hire Steve Wilks I'll quit my job😅
If Harbaugh is gonna act like a diva give me Vrabel all day
Yes!!!
I think that Jim's mom's comment was related to the Ronney Rule, tbh. Teams can't start the interview process in earnest for two weeks... pretty much means Jom can't make a decision until then anyway.
Coaches have already been interviewed but you can't name a new head coach publically for two weeks.
I'm so confused about the timeline of hiring a head coach. I've read a bunch of so-called reputable reporters but someone please tell me what the deal is with an NFL team hiring a non-NFL coach. @davepalet says he's annoyed about Harbaugh taking so much time, but can the Chargers even hire him now if they wanted to?

Thanks for the comment. We’ll address this on the show tomorrow.
Maybe During the Draft if WR Harrison one First 4 picks?
Chargers Trade Back with Chargers with Falcons who Might Draft a QB? #5 Before NYG who also want a QB?
Chargers Ask for TE Kyle Pitts (Contract up 2026) & Maybe Give a 4th?
Chargers Move to #8 & take WR ROME OBUNZE (Washington). He Can Do Jump Balls & Deep Threat?
Not a bad call. The Chargers need a TE and a WR. If we could get two starters by trading back, maybe?
Vrabel is the Trent Dilfer of HC's. IMO. It's Harbaugh, Ben Johnson, or Quinn.
You guys are all right I been a Charger fan since the 70's and still am but the Spanos family been picking bad coaches it's time to GO get Jim Harbaugh best f--Ken candidate to coaches the Chargers pay the man!! what ever he wants!! F--k it's time for the chargers to get a Superbowl trophy 🏆Now is the time
Interesting that they're interviewing HC before a GM? Tells me all i need to know... That the Spanos are going to do the same o'le.... same o'le....
Not sure why you guys are mad at Harbaugh for wanting to take time to enjoy being with his family…..teams aren’t allowed to make hires until after the Divisional round of the playoffs so him taking a couple weeks while we REQUEST and Do interviews is no problem at all. We should be done with them by late January
Guys serious question. What would you do if Harbaugh, Vrabel, and Johnson were still available and they hire Antonio Pierce. And you hear reports that all 3 of them were interested in the job? Sounds like something the Spanoses would do.😂😂😂
Haha I don’t think Antonio Pierce would want to be anything but the next Raiders coach. He just makes sense for them but that would be funny.
I don't think the Chargers would hire AP. He's never even been a coordinator. Those guys are playing on emotion. The Chargers need more than emotion at this stage.
@@joshpalet for the sake of the show I hope they dont hite Steve Wilks. Yall are awesome bro!
@@eddiermrz95 haha thanks Eddie!
Joking but…….the Chargers went soft as soon as their uniforms got soft. Check it, 2007 on with the white helmets we started regressing in the physicality dept.
Seriously though, 100% agree, need a coach to develop a tougher culture. Or, at least. A culture.
No one hated the uniform change in 07 more than me. Downgrade of the century. It was insult to injury after firing Marty
@@arroyocesar1988 100% agree! I could not stand the new “era” uniforms/helmets. A powder blue throwback day is fine but the navy’s were it!
Nabers or Bowers?
Bowers but wouldn’t be upset if it was Nabers.
Hire AP if the Raiders get Harbaugh, he went 5-4 with AOC, he is the new Dan Cambell. AP from Compton, would be great for filling seats.
I disagree, Harbaugh is worth the wait. Just tell him the job is his if he wants it. He doesn’t need to interview. At this point I’d be disappointed if the Chargers can’t bring in Harbaugh. I wanted him as HC back in 2020. I think the entire fan base knows that he can turn this culture and franchise around. I have no reservations about Jim Harbaugh coaching this team.

Next get him a GM that shares the same vision of the team and he’ll bring the Chargers their first Lombardi trophy.
It’s hard to argue that. I would just hate if we missed on him, Vrabel and Johnson cause we waited but I’m with you he’s the top choice go get him.
They interviewed Giff today for Head coach????? Um what?
That’s out of respect for Giff being the interim HC. That’s pretty standard for most teams that have an interim HC. I wouldn’t read much into that move.
Plus to get his name out there for future opportunities. Just helping him out of respect.
You guys are upset over nothing, Harbo doesn’t do any talking, his agent does. The agent knows everything. This decision has already been made. 😊
I just hope Harbaugh isn't using the Chargers as leverage to get more money from Michigan or another NFL team.
Mike vrabel then trade bosa and maybe something else get Derick Henry draft Bowers or call the giants check on saquon need a instant power back veteran to soften defenses up and get easy downs
I know all 3 of you are convinced Mack is gone next season. Do you think Bosa is too?
I do.
@joshpalet that's tough another position to fill in the draft. I really wish there was a way keep Mack just one more year
@@markcatlin8533 His 40M cap hit is just so much.
@joshpalet I just don't know how we're gonna fill a roster to be competitive with 7 or 8 picks (8 if we trade back). The coach would have to be Harbaugh or Vrabel unless some miracle Tomlin leaves. Plus are we gonna really let Gilman walk as well?

None top Nick Saban taking Ted Ginn Jr as his first pick as a Dolphins HC. Reason when asked why. "He comes from a good family ". Total ruined the Fins than bailed like the Colts of old in the middle of the night to Alabama lol
Saban also wanted Drew Brees and they chose Daunte Culpepper, and I’m happy they did. Roll Tide 😎
Steve Wilkes just hired by John Spanos
Stop it! iIt's too scary to joke around.
The chiefs next year will be there for the taking broncos in disorey raiders no QB we can win the division next year if we get the coach right and draft well
"Prepare for the worst" seems defeatist until we consider the nepotism of the charger owner Dean.
Dean needs to change his ways.
As a HC Vrbel hasn't done squat. Sorry I don't agree. Yes he would change our culture. However I'm not sold on him.
His players love him and he’s made the most with the Titans. I want Harbaugh but wouldn’t be upset if they landed Vrabel.
Look at Vrabel's QB's. The Titans were the number one seed two years ago. To have a winning record with the rosters he's had in Tennessee is amazing.
Vabrel great coach but it's a no from me...he was doing the "lights out" celebration mid field after patriots eliminated us years ago. I still hate the guy
Was it Vrabel? I thought it was Wilfork and a lineman (Colvin?)
Sign the contract with us. Get paid, then go in vacation.
Announce Matt Canada
If these Fks don't get Harbaugh then this all is a complete Loss! I will be done with Chargers and football altogether...
Youguys think Herbert is better than he really is... He is passive aggressive and not a leader.. If he was so great, he wouldn't they have more wins.. It's hilarious how great you guys think Herbert is... He a losing qb, what am I missing here.
He’s a franchise QB. We don’t think he’s the best but he’s definitely a top QB in this league that’s been on a team plagued by injuries with bad coaching. Do you disagree?
It doesn't matter if we're giving him too much credit, he's all we have. He's the franchise and the years tell us, he's our only hope.
Let Herbert have [ 3 ] , 1, 000 + yarders in a season , like Burrow , Like Tua x 2 & Hurts x2 has had & get BACK to me ? PS and Herbert has had just [ 3 ] in his WHOLE NFL career , not 3 in ANY 1 season ?
ANOTHER TROLL, with [ NOTHING } on his Home page ? Get some balls 1 of these days ....LOL
I thought we couldn't hire a coach until after January 21st? Because of the Rooney Rule and playoffs due to it being unfair to coaches in the playoffs and somehow minorities.
To me, it's more insulting to be called in as a minority for an interview that's just for show.
Mario, you had Beetlejuice as a major. That blamed everything on poor Gary Indiana. Then Chicago elected a major with the same policies. Don't matter what side of the political aile you're on. Doing the same thing over and over is insanity. There had to be a better Democrat candidate than what was elected, wasn't there?
You're right on when you can hire but you can start the interview process. A deal can be agreed upon but not announced until after the 22nd.
@davepalet So, technically, Harbaugh can take two weeks to decide because that's how long he has to accept the contract we hopefully already worked out with his agent.
