2021 Official Chargers Season Discusssion

[Boltjolt]

Does anyone else see the LB's as needing more bodies. What happens if White, Murry or Tranquill go down with injury or covid 19? Any chance they resign Ingram?

Mel doesn't play White, Murray or Tranquills position.
Mel ain't coming back.

(Deleted - never mind). Everyone have a great Bolt Day!

Agreed, some thoughts are best kept to yourself.

First TC practice can’t here soon enough!

Preseason for me. TC means little when they report who is doing what as they experiment often.
I just don't want any major injuries.

Yet they played a season last year regardless of shots and the league didn't care as well as fans didn't care.

That’s why the NFL is leaving the restrictions in place for players who don’t want to get immunized. It’s a 2nd option.

I can’t get enough of TC.
This year even more so.
What scheme wrinkles will be different?
What UDFA or 2nd/3rd year player jumps onto the roster/earns role?
How does Pipkins look and play?
Who earns the CB job opposite Vato?
Can Uchenna produce opposite Joey?
What are the WR groupings we will use?
Who separates themselves in the RB group?
How improved will our ST be?

Just some things off the top of my head.

I’m so hungry for football content, I’ll eat any news right now even if it’s all nonsensical lol.

Games were cancelled and no fans were allowed in LA. May have been better for the Chargers than a stadium filled with visiting fans.I wouldn’t say the league and fans didn’t care. The NFL has said they won’t cancel games this year. So if your team has an outbreak you are SOL

Slight chance of Ingram but unlikely.
Current roster:
OLB/ Edge:
Bosa, Nwosu, Rumph, Fackrell, Egbule, Gaziano, Lemonier, Ogbongbemiga.
ILB:
Murray, Tranquill, White, Niemann, Bello, Christianson, Lloyd.

There isn't an obvious need, we have bodies. Training camp will give is a better read..

As noted above, this isn’t a health care forum.

Almost none of that will be answered in TC. The bolded will give looks in TC but nothing deffinite til they play some games.

Preseason is the start of where you will see that and even more likely when the bell rings. After Preseason we will know what 2nd & 3rd year players make the team and who the surprise cuts may be.

I mean its cool it is getting close but things get over blown in here from what they see in TC. Like seeing Lamp being at RT in some practices for example. They are just experimenting. You may see Joe Reed at RB in TC which imo is a good thing to see how he does and they should see how he does there. He is a versatile player. Let him do more.

The league wanted to press on last year because of money.

When i say fans didnt care......i mean they wanted to see football. I thought the season would be cancelled. I mean its stupid to have players wear masks on the sidelines and fine coaches who didnt wear them corrrectly then have players on the field face to face tackling each other lol. Its hypocritical,,,.....Yes, even though i wanted to see football as well.

And there was no vaccine available then but now you call the players selfish. Hmm. Are the players that opted out last year selfish?

Im just sayin. I think everybody should get vacinnated but its their choice. If you dont, keep wearing your mask or dont play this year either.

Since we’ve installed 90% of our systems already, it’s seems as if we should get some early indications of WR groupings, scheme changes, camp standouts, and what our ST look like.
Of course the team will be keeping the majority of the playbook hidden to public/enemies but they have to practice the concepts. Is TC/PS the end all be all? Certainly not but it is the start of the football season, imv.
Here’s to the end of the doldrums.
