Jim Harbaugh intentionally leaves Greg Roman's Chargers future up in the air
Key Points:
- The LA Chargers were defeated 16-3 by the New England Patriots, with a strong defensive showing but a poor offensive performance that highlighted issues with quarterback Justin Herbert, offensive coordinator Greg Roman, the offensive line, and receivers.
- Justin Herbert struggled for the third consecutive playoff game, making several bad throws and facing offensive line breakdowns, which led to a lackluster offensive display and raised questions about the offensive scheme.
- Head coach Jim Harbaugh was noncommittal about Greg Roman's future as offensive coordinator, indicating that coaching staff changes, including special teams coordinator Ryan Ficken, may be considered after the season.
- Defensive coordinator Jesse Minter, who delivered an impressive performance against the Patriots, is expected to interview
