    Lack of Depth concerning

    I think one of the things that preseason games can show is how our talent on the 2nd and 3 rd stringers compares to the opposing teams'. These are the people that make our special teams , practice squad etc and its pretty evident that Seattle has superior talent deep into their roster. The backup offensive line on our squad is scary bad and I really hope coach D can coach these guys up by the end of preseason .

    Not really that concerning because its unsurprising. I don't anticipate us matching up with Seattle in the Super Bowl.

      No other team has drafted as well as Seattle over the last 3-4 years. This team is loaded. And the depth is superbowl quality. I look forward to seeing our roster after 3 solid drafts. Really impressed with our draft picks tonight.

        I think we all knew we were thin across the lines and secondary , but a lot of these backups (likely due to the AJ effect of depleting our roster of any viable talent ) look like they should be in the arena league or CFL not the NFL. Telesco has a major rebuilding no matter how much Spanos and McCoy want to spin we want to win now.

          No surprise at all. We are thin and will be for a few years. Few key guys though showing some ability this game.

            Agree. I don't think it's a fair comparison.

              A lot of those guys are pretty inexperienced. There are a lot of depth guys on Seattle that could challenge for starting positions elsewhere. It's not surprising.

                I agree with the rebuild. Starters looked good tonight. But this team is fragile due to depth. And like i said we need to build up 2-3 deep through the draft. Its going to take some time. Im just glad our picks looked good tonight. Im encouraged with the early look at TTs draft picks.

                  And don't forget that we've been pretty thin for the previous 2-3.

                    Chargers lack depth across the board!

                    Duh

                      If you read that post I did about our drafts from 2007 to 2010, you should know why we are lacking depth

                        Look what Acee tweeted , looks like he's been reading this thread


                        Chargers' lack of depth on display -- against one of deepest teams in the NFL. Seattle 31, Chargers 10 late In fourth quarter.
