Tampa Bay DC Mike Smith could make sense for Chargers

SAN DIEGO -- Starting Monday, the San Diego Chargers begin the process of hiring the 16th head coach in franchise history.

The Chargers have experienced the highs of Bobby Ross leading the organization to a Super Bowl appearance at the end of the 1994 season and the lows of eight straight non-winning seasons from 1996 to 2003.

After he failed to lead the franchise to the postseason for a third straight season, the Chargers fired Mike McCoy following the team’s season-ending loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.

“Obviously, we need to get healthy,” San Diego quarterback Philip Rivers said when asked about his team’s prospects for next season.
