    I hear ya!

    I just feel like with a team like the Chargers (a team trying to reestablish themselves as true contenders), let them ride the "nobody believed in us, we felt disrespected, all of the experts didn't give us a chance"... train until they've proven themselves. I personally prefer them being the underdogs, as opposed to being the team that everyone is predicting to produce double digit wins, division titles and AFC championships, in spite of the fact that they haven't actually proven they can win games against the other true AFC contenders.

    Before the season started, when I was listening to the experts make predictions, my attitude was... please stop hyping the Chargers until they go out and PROVE they can actually beat top contending teams first (especially top AFC teams), and please don't give the Chargers the division until they go out and actually PROVE they can beat the Chiefs first. Even before Peyton Manning, Andy Reid and Alex Smith became apart of the AFC West, the Chargers failed to win the division in 2010 & 2011, being beaten out by Matt Cassel's Chiefs and Tim Tebow's Broncos.

      We lost to Tim Tebow. How embarrassing was that?
      Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.

        Stop Gurley and the DTs and we have a shot.
        Agreed. We're going to need to play lots of zone and make the tackle. YAC will kill us. Gurley isn't just a good runner. He's very dangerous catching it too.

        Not sure what to do about the DT's. Our line doesn't match up. Quick passes and screens. Long drives. Make them run and hope that Donald's holdout and Suh's age lower their output as the game goes on.

          I think they keep two guys in the backfield for extra blocking. And Gordon with Ekeler together would open up some offensive options too.

          Feeney is in for a long day IMO.

              Worse, we lost to the 0-14 or 0-15 Browns in 2016.

                      I'm not sold on Gordon's pass prot. I watched two plays last week where he got in the OT's way and made it hard for them. I think one turned into a sack. He's ok when he has someone to block but he needs to be more aware of everyone else.

                        That one hurt almost as much as our playoff games.
