Chargers have not gotten off to the best start. The season ain't over but they are definitely not meeting expectations. Is the coaching staff more responsible for the record or the players? Don't say a little of both and be specific.

OWNERSHIP
It was their decision to fire a coach who led the team
to a 14-2 record last year & produced a record-breaking
MVP after only ONE YEAR with the team...
It was their decision to hire a coach who has an impeccable
record of being a fantastic offensive coordinator but being
a horrible head coach ~ Redskins, Raiders...
It was their decision to let the offensive AND defensive
coordinators go on to other head coaching positions with
other teams...
Don't blame LT, don't blame Rivers, don't blame anybody
else but the idiots who own the team & have the final say
in everything.

I'd say the coaches or Phillip Rivers or a mix of both. L.T.'s started off slow(which actually just means he's been a little above average instead of amazing), but I think that's more of a playcalling issue along with a mediocre passing game. If you don't have a good balance to keep the defense guessing then they can just stack up the line to stuff L.T.

They played the Bears (great run D), Patriots (after spy-gate had a serious chip on their shoulder), GB (underrated run D) and KC ( I can't explain that lose!)
The focus of the chargers Offense is running the ball, but Chi, NE and GB are great against the run!
LT got 140 yds or so but still got beat by KC! This team may completely crumble! Do SD and NO play soon? At least one of the Preseason favorites would get a win!

Most of the blame this week will be on Phillip Rivers. When Martyball was there they were a lot more balanced team. Norv Turner is a good coordinator but he's terrible as a head coach.He will be fired after this season.

management. They cannot get a quality coach now because of poor management and what they did to Marty.
They're bottom dwellers for the next 5 years or so.
