L.A.’s new defensive coordinator is well aware of the talent within his unit but still believes there’s a higher bar to reach for. Plus, more sights and sounds from the team’s opening day of practice.
Jesse Minter doesn’t mind the coaching comparisons between the Los Angeles Chargers and the Baltimore Ravens because there are many similarities in how the Harbaugh brothers run their respective organizations.
Now many are expecting Minter to be the next hotshot defensive play-caller because of his ties to Baltimore and impressive personnel in Los Angeles, which is led by safety Derwin James and edge rushers Khalil Mack and Joey Bosa. Perhaps Minter can be the coach who gets James back to an All-Pro level and possibly top his sensational rookie season from 2018, when he quickly established himself as one of the best safeties in the league. But that likely won’t happen without a dominant edge rushing group.
“I look forward to those guys being at their best, taking care of each other, subbing for each other, working together and looking forward to the production, I think, we can get out of that room.”Best thing I saw: Justin Herbert’s laser to Joshua Palmer So, let’s go with something different. Minter doesn’t expect Mack, the former Defensive Player of the Year, to slow down in his 11th NFL season.
