[jubei]

this sucks! Ekeler is one of my favorite players on the team. Get well little big man! We need you back ASAP!

If he is only out 4 to 6 weeks with that, that is much better than I was fearing as when I was watching him leave the field I was thinking he was done for the year.

EDITED - Pretty rude. Lets not do that. Thank you.

Right? I thought for sure he was out for the year, especially when he could not even get on the cart! I would think this is probably viewed as decent to good news within the organization after the visuals from yesterday. Trouble with the hammy though is it is really easy to have a set back. Does not even have to be on the field, you can re-aggravate a hammy around the house, just getting up outta of a chair or picking up something off the floor. Hopefully he heals soon.

We must all realize that...but still...48 yrds. over 4 quarters?

Unrealistic expectations..... We lost Ekeler makes a difference don't ya think?

Saints 80 yards rushing
Panthers WITH McCaffery 90 yards rushing
Broncos 42 yards rushing
Chargers 48 yards rushing

When you have one of the best d-lines in the NFL if not the best.... What exactly were you expecting with the Chargers injury riddled O-line???

Ndamukong Suh
Vita Vea
William Gholston
Jason Pierre-Paul

VS

Trey Pipkins
Forrest Lamp
Dan Feeney
Ryan Groy
Sam Tevi

If that doesn't give you a hint nothing will.

Yes. Got paid cowbell money but not the typical cowbell RB size. Just like the Chargers to reward success with screwed up expectations.

IMO he earned his payday but I agree he’s better when paired with another good back to provide that 1-2 punch. He’s a demon in the passing game though. Great player and if he got away we’d be bitching about that too.

I’ve said I don’t think this team is going anywhere this year and hopefully the coaches are working on Kelley and the fumbles I like him. We might as well develop the rookies now.

Get healthy Ek! We’re gonna miss ya. Need to sign an RB.

Where's reed? I thought he was going to come to the party of RB for 5-10 carries a game.
