Webblog: Possible staff changes if Harbaugh departs

The NFL Network said that the Los Angeles Chargers made a “extremely strong financial offer.” I don’t have any knowledge on the specifics of this offer, but if it’s in-line with what Harbaugh has informed many in Ann Arbor would be at least in the $16 million per year range, I believe it’s a play to delay him from his second interview with Atlanta. And if they’ve come that far, I wouldn’t be surprised if he became the Chargers’ next coach. Short of that, I believe he will proceed with his second interview with the Atlanta Falcons.

– As previously stated, if Harbaugh leaves, Jesse Minter is likely to follow. According to agent sources, he slow-played Jacksonville before they signed Ryan Nielsen, the defensive line coach for Atlanta Falcons. Minter is now receiving interest from the Giants and the Eagles (with whom he interviewed last year), but he is waiting to see what Jim does. That may give Michigan a greater chance of keeping him if things go wrong with the Chargers, but it’s still far more likely that he’s coached his final down at Michigan. (To be clear, Michigan will try to keep Minter if Harbaugh leaves, but I believe those efforts will be useless).

Derwin James’ comeback will be a ‘problem’ for the rest of the NFL, a Chargers teammate says.

NFL Decides Not to Suspend Chargers' Derwin James Jr., per Report - Sports  Illustrated

Los Angeles Chargers cornerback Chris Harris is looking forward to the return of safety Derwin James this season, who he believes will help his team have the top secondary in the AFC. After repairing a stress fracture in his foot, James played only five games in 2019 before missing the entire 2020 season with a torn meniscus.

The top defensive back appears to be back to full health ahead of the 2021 campaign.

“To bring back Derwin, it’s going to be an issue because now you have me and him that are positionless players, that you never know where we’re going to line up,” Harris was quoted as saying by SiriusXM NFL radio. “I can line up in his spot. He can play my position. So you’ve never

Harris said his team’s defense will adopt a more hybrid approach this fall under a new head coach, which should assist all players, including James.

“This is a totally different scheme from last year,” Harris went on to say. “(James) is going to be more downhill. I’m excited to see those boys. It’s going to be challenging. Our dime and nickel package should be the best in the league, with me, Derwin, and K. Murray or (LB Drue) Tranquil on the inside — or (linebacker) Kyzir White, who can also cover. So we have a lot of packages that Coach Staley will use, and it will be difficult for a team to recognize us.

As a rookie in 2018, James recorded 105 total tackles, 75 solo tackles, four tackles for loss, 3.5 sacks, three interceptions, and 13 pass deflections while starting all 16 games. However, in just five games in 2019, James recorded 34 total tackles, 23 solo tackles, three tackles for loss, and one pass deflection.

“He’s cleared for full participation, which is a real credit to our sports performance team, his performance team, and himself,” stated head coach Brandon Staley, according to the Los Angeles Daily News. “He looks and sounds wonderful. One of his football assets is his leadership and energy, which he exudes every day.”

James discussed his injury and comeback earlier this year, stating he needed

“I need my practice,” James stated. “I can’t sit up here and claim that I can just go out there and play a perfect game.” I need practice reps. I can’t play this game without practicing, thus I need my reps. I can’t model how I’m going to make the tackle in a game, so I need to be out there in practice making the tackle, making the play, or demonstrating to myself that I can put myself in position to make the plays that I know I’m capable of.

“I don’t see it as (trying to avoid injury). Of course, I can be smarter in some situations, but I’m here to play football.”

Chargers coach Brandon Staley says Justin Herbert has total command.

Brandon Staley has only been the Los Angeles Chargers’ head coach for a short time, but he already knows who leads the squad and should be the franchise’s top player for many years to come. Justin Herbert, the reigning NFL Rookie of the Year, looks the part at OTAs, according to Staley, and his command of the huddle stands out.

Herbert passed for 4,336 yards and 31 touchdowns last season, replacing Tyrod Taylor following his injury.

Justin’s leadership in and out of the huddle will be a key aspect of our game. This week during OTAs, Staley remarked, “I thought he was really impressive.” “There was one (play) in particular that I believed really demonstrated that he has the capacity that you guys are all aware of from an identification aspect of something we do defensively that we feel is difficult to pick up, and he picked it up on practice No. 1. “He’s off and running.”

Herbert hopes to excel during his sophomore season in 2021.

“It has been a blur. It’s gone by so quickly. It’s been a lot of fun,” Herbert recently told NFL Network’s Taylor Bisciotti. “Clearly, it was a difficult year. We didn’t win as many games as we wanted. I believe we have the talent, as well as the people and staff. So I am really looking forward to it.”

Last year, the Chargers finished 7-9, prompting a coaching change and the optimism that fresh leadership can return the organization to the playoffs.

“What is the definition of leadership? Do you improve the lives of others? “Do you improve the people around you?” Staley remarked of Herbert on the team’s official website. “Do you elevate?

He’s so genuine, and I believe that’s what people admire about him, and I believe that now that he’s at the start and has been able to compete and deliver at this level, it’s only going to boost his confidence.”

The Chargers won four straight to finish the season in 2020, and Herbert hopes that momentum continues into the autumn. He’s fine-tuning and tweaking elements of his game that he believes aren’t doing well.

“There’s a lot to improve on,” Herbert added. “I believe that if I could understand the offense, I would be able to go to the line of scrimmage with a clear plan for what we were going to do. I think.
