The Chargers announced Tuesday that the team has relieved defensive coordinator Ted Cottrell of his duties.

Inside linebackers coach Ron Rivera, who has previous coordinator experience with the Chicago Bears, has been promoted and will call the defensive plays for the Chargers.

Head Coach Norv Turner and Rivera are scheduled to meet with the media Tuesday afternoon.


Will this move help the Chargers shitty defense?

it should. He did a great job in Chicago. Although the only thing about him is that he wasn't aggressive enough (hardly ever blitzed) and didn't adjust for shit in the superbowl (you'd think after payton manning kept throwing short lil dump off passes to the RB's the defense would adjust but nope).

thank god.that 32nd rated pass defense didnt help him any.maybe our defense can get shit started again cause right now they suck balls

About time! They should have fired his black ass along time ago!

Cottrell's defensive schemes were garbage but without Merriman weaking havoc on the line the QB has more time to work and now our secondary is showin their true colors.
