Gday fellow diehards, back for some more punishment i see :nod:
This week had some tough decisions on plays to choose, there was plenty to go around.
The Good:
2nd Q 11:55 clock
Herbert showing off his big arm again on a brilliant play action pass for TD. Saints playing single high safety rushing 4. Their safety bites on Hunter Henry route leaving Jalen Guyton open for the big play. If this young man stays on his feet its Touchdown. I am impressed with the pass protection here, nice double teams inside and Pipkins adjusting to help Green on the outside showing good awareness. There is plenty of plays where our O-line fails, so credit to Pipkins and the unit as whole for this effort. Charger ball on 45yrd line seems to be a favorite spot to take a shot, so i expect this to be covered tighter in coming weeks as teams see film. Enjoy it while we can diehards
The Bad:
2nd Q 11:55 clock
Charger play calling is getting creative here. Its shame 2 missed blocks let the whole play fail. Feeney needs to get on the MLB, Pikpins needs to block the DE right in front of him and Henry block the OLB would have created a wide running lane for Guyton to get big yards. If Henry even blocks the DE it becomes Guyton 1on1 with OLB and a chance to make positive yards. Herbert fake pass fooled the OLB and coverage. A good play call badly executed
The Ugly:
4th Q 11:31 clock
Chargers have Saints in 3rd and 14 leading by 7. Its been 2 great defensive plays leading up this and simple mistakes turns game momentum. A minor pump fake from Brees makes Adderly misstep. White is just plain lost in coverage and Murray stops persuit as the ball is thrown all resulting the game tying TD. Zero excuses here, players need to make plays.
Honorable mention:
3rd Q 4:24 clock
Chargers run effectively converting 1st down. Lamp + Tevi + Hill + Guyton all working together to create this lane. I am impressed by Tevi sliding off the double team with Henry to get on the OLB along with KJ Hill sealing the outside. This is what good run blocking looks like and i hope to see more.

luv ya
