Jesse Minter has the Chargers defense playing at an elite level.
Since the start of the season, no team has scored more than 20 points. This is the fourth time since 1990 that a defense has limited its opponents to that mark .
Los Angeles is No. 1 in scoring defense, allowing just 13.1 points per game.
Minter’s coaching has the defensive unit firing on all cylinders.
In the trenches, they withstood the onslaught and the pass rush is finally coming to life. The linebackers are passionate about football. The coverage was tight and the scheme confused opposing quarterbacks.
Minter is only in his first season as the team's defensive coordinator, but it could be his only stint in that role.
“We’ve got to enjoy Jesse Minter while we have him because I think he’s going to be the head coach next year,” Jim Harbaugh said during his appearance on The Pat McAfee Show.
