Chargers set to unveil Mike McDaniel’s fast-paced new offense in Week 1 vs. Cardinals
Mike McDaniel’s scheme is designed to speed up Justin Herbert’s throws and cut down the hits after he was sacked six times in the playoff loss.
- On Sunday, the Los Angeles Chargers host the Arizona Cardinals to open the season, unveiling offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel's new speed-based schemes designed to transform their attack.
- Hired in January, McDaniel aims to protect quarterback Justin Herbert, who took a beating in several games last year, by implementing quicker throws and new shotgun formations.
- The Chargers' offensive line receives a boost with the return of Pro Bowl tackles Rashawn Slater and Joe Alt from season-ending injuries. "They're two of the best to do it," Herbert said.
- Arizona enters the matchup led by rookie head coach Mike LaFleur, making his NFL head coaching debut after the Cardinals finished 3-14 last year and fired coach Jonathan Gannon.
- Quarterback Herbert needs 120 passing yards to reach 25,000 for his career during Sunday's game, while the Chargers hold an 11-5 series lead over Arizona heading into the matchup.
