    Raiders lead Chargers 42-0 at halftime. Looks like Brandon Staley will be looking for a DC job this offseason.

    My friend and I were joking at about this point in the game that with our luck MiLF will finally fire Barry as Staley becomes available. SD fans near us were MFing him up and down the aisle. I can't remember attending a bigger blowout that this one. I was in GB when we beat the Titans something like 44-10 and it was over at halftime. Thats the only other game I can recall like this one.

    Not bigger, but there was the Packers-Bears game in 2014 that was 42-0 Packers at the half in route to a 55-14 win.
    Fire Murphy, Gute, MLF, Barry, Senavich, etc!

    I meant games I attended though. Blowing out the bears is always "bigger"

    My impression is that in general, defensive coordinators in the past, I dunno, ten or so years, do not do so well when hired as head coaches. I'm thinking of Staley and Saleh right now.

    If that is true and not just an impression, I wonder why that is so. Couldn't a D-coordinator-turned-head-coach offer some up and coming offensive mind the benefit of having near-complete control over an offense?

    It's a curious thing. Or maybe it's not true. Or maybe there is no real reason.
