Chargers Open As A 6.5 Pt Favorite Over The Panthers - Pre Game Discussion

I don't think it matters.
Herbert has better arm talent. Tyrod knows the playbook better. Pros and cons for each.
Lynn will put either QB in spots to be successful on gameday.

Great...we know he can study and read....but can he implement it!
No one wants to watch Tyrod play! Lynne "Don't be a Dummy...Dummy!

I think opening up on the wrog side of a few playaction calls is going to get Lynn heated. Those details can really hurt. Herbert missed a few off the top of my head. If you dont sell the playaction perfectly it will lead to mistakes.

My guess is that Lynn is seeing things like that. Those mental errors. Herbert played mostly well based on his athleticism and skillset alone.


Defenses wont bite on a fake when the RB is on the other side of the handoff lol

Carloina is without McCaffery. Our problem is that we can make scrub unknowns look like All-Pro's.......it's just the Chargers way.

But we have this new Safety on the PS.....Ahdie? Addie? Alldie...???? Something like that......anybody got the skinny on him??????

You talking about the kid Awhiffy?

I think Ekler admitted he was on the wrong side (took the blame) on that play if that's the one you're referring to.

I have heard of him. Some folks on here have some pretty strong opinions of that kid!

The last, and only time, we've beaten Carolina was when we had a rookie Rivers waiting in the wings of Brees.

Can we please beat the Panthers for once? I also want to avenge that 2008 game.

i vaguely remember all these games:
1. 2008 - lost in the last seconds with a 13 yard pass back into the back of the endzone:
in a bar with Raider fans who proceeded to suggested that what would be known as Norvitis was beginning to set in
2. 2012 - the final nail driven into Norv's coffin: complete blowout embarrassment
3. 2016 - McCoy's waning moments

Carolina is like Haley's comet to the Chargers: every four years portends doom when they come around

If TTvis the starter the line will come down. Way down

I'm still trying to wrap my mind around Lynn's statements denigrating Herbert. Most coaches would be ecstatic to have a 22 year old stud QB who was a winner in college and played like Herbert did against the defending champs with no preparation thrust into the line of fire on a moment's notice. Lynn just seems upset that Herbert created a QB controversy that has turned his carefully crafted plan for the season on its head. It does make one wonder if Lynn resented Herbert being drafted because he is so married to making Tyrod into a success.

I'm interested in how they will perform vs Panthers.
I kind of feel like this could be a double digit win for the Chargers. Nothing spectacular, they just play a solid game and win 27-17.

If Tyrod starts, I think we get one TD, a couple of figgies, a ton of punts, and lose 17-13. If Herbie starts, I think we get about two TD's and three figgies, and we win, 23-17. Keep starting Herbie, coach! He's already showing surprising upside...

Or maybe its people watching KC? No doubt there would have been a sea of red had fans been allowed in.

The ratings for the LA area. Are there tons of KC fans living in SoCal?

Where are they getting their BBQ?

Yes of course.

Where would the vast majority of the population want to live? Midwestern hell or sunny coastal Cali?
They get the fuck out of KC either permanently or for a week(end).
