After falling behind 27-0, the Jaguars pull off the third-biggest comeback in NFL postseason history with a 31-30 win, ending the chargers' season when Riley Patterson hit a 36-yard field goal as time expired.
Chargers coach Brandon Staley speaks to players before Saturday’s playoff loss to the Jaguars.
Chargers coach Brandon Staley expressed frustration over the team’s struggles on offense and with penalties in the second half of his team’s 31-30 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars in the AFC wild-card playoffs on Saturday. “There were far too many penalties in the second half. That really hurt us and didn’t play well enough in the red ,” Staley said. “We just did not sustain drives in the second half and didn’t run the football effectively enough and then didn’t do well enough on third down. ... Got some killer third-and-shorts that we didn’t make today, and then obviously we missed a kick down the stretch that really hurt us.
“I’m hurting for everybody in that locker room. It’s a special group of guys and, you know, this is the toughest way that you can lose, in the playoffs. “We just didn’t finish the game, and we’re going to learn a lot from this. Unfortunately, this is the tough side of things. Our season is over, but I love everybody in that locker room and this was a step for us and we’re going to grow a lot from it.”
