Jason Smith: "The Chargers 'going for it on 4th' strategy was an epic fail. Why? Because it felt like a decision that was made going into the game that 'no matter what, we're going for it.' You need to adjust for how the game is unfolding and flowing, and the never did. That got them the L."


Jason Smith and Mike Harmon react to the Chargers losing to the Chiefs on Thursday night. Jason rips into Chargers HC Brandon Staley for refusing to capitalize on opportunities to get points throughout the game, instead opting to attempt to convert on fourth down rather than kick a field goal, failing in the conversion attempt 3 times. Jason explains why Staley needs to improve at adapting to the flow of the game, rather than sticking to a specific strategy regardless of how the game is going, or else the Chargers will continue to fall short of true Super Bowl contention.
