COSTA MESA, Calif. -- Los Angeles Chargers general manager Tom Telesco thinks the team has a good foundation with quarterback Justin Herbert and coach Brandon Staley. He also realizes fans are frustrated about not making the postseason for the third straight year.
The Chargers finished 9-8 in Staley's first season but missed the playoffs after losing three of their final four games. That included a 35-32 overtime loss to the Las Vegas Raiders in the last game of the regular season.
Under Telesco, the Chargers have reached the playoffs only twice during his nine-year tenure and finished with a winning record four times.
