    Energy + positivity >> yelling and negativity.
    Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.
    The Wasted Decade is done.

      I’m glad to see Stick get his shot. Go Stick.

            A real nugget from Kyle Posey, doing the 49ers now,
            but formerly opining on the Chargers.

            Expect rapid player development @ LAC !
            I am trying to temper enthusiasm and positivity for Staley but he does seem like the real deal as a HEAD football coach. Teacher of the game, organized and prepared

            In the offseason - on twitter had a thread where it was talked about what makes a good head coach. Stacey Dales and Jeremiah responded. And they included things that seemed to be the strength of Anthony Lynn

            I would think a good head coach
            1) prepares the team during practice time to be ready for the game

            2) during the game, can make adjustments if need be. And that could also mean ripping up the play sheet after the first quarter and creating a new strategy for the game.

            Too many times the Chargers just do not seem prepared to play and are not prepared to adapt.

              Last season we had no preseason and little TC. No OTAs. Big difference this year and it's no comparison, so I don't agree.

              I see no reason to put starters in there for much time at all and turn an ankle or tweak a knee or shoulder and have it bother them all season.
              9 plus months without football meaning live action in which actual hard hits are being delivered and players are playing hard for a win/roster spot. Sure practices have guys playing for roster spots but there is always a priority to not hit someone too hard (rightfully so).
              Tom Telesco’s Results in 9 years as Chargers GM:

              - 69-74 record
              - 0 division titles in 9 yrs as GM
              - Worst record among all active GMs with same tenure
              - 6th worst winning percentage among all active GMs overall
              - 2 playoff wins despite elite QB all 9 yrs
              - Team still has the same weaknesses (Oline and run defense) that it had when hired as GM in 2013
              - Consistently puts together horrible depth, expects starters to never miss games

                Per ChargersPulse on Instagram, quoting Daniel Popper on Tweeter:

                Parham has an injured tailbone. To be determined whether he plays tomorrow.

                Gabe Nabers has swelling on his knee

                ChargersPulse is on top of everything Chargers related. He always on top of everything Chargers related.

                As has been reported, the Chargers have brought back Matt Seybert, a TE. I don't know if that has anything to do with Parham's injury.

                          This kind of hyperbole reminds me of some of the comments we used to hear from good old Hacksaw Hamilton...
