2021 Official Chargers Season Discusssion

[Formula 21]

I love the draft, but in the end, who cares where the talent comes from. There’s no win-loss record in the draft. Winning games is what counts. And TT has a losing record where it counts.

I didn't have a problem with moving on from Lynn. I just don't think Staley has been much of an improvement, yet. The defense is currently No. 22, and it has had a healthy Derwin James the entire season.

I think there's a difference in attitude. This year's team seems to be expecting to win and I think a good deal of the reason they feel that way is the optimism of Staley. He doesn't coach "not to lose", he's aggressive and coaches to win. I have a feeling next season will be a special season and everyone will praise Staley.

Agree. I wasn't expecting a lot this year. Depth wasn't good but expected better than last season.

2022 we should expect to win every week.

Lynn has no place being a HC anywhere - are we watching the same team/coaches??

also, we can simply agree to disagree - i am not interested in a feud. if you want to make some complaints about Staley, that is perfectly fine, but Lynn was an absolute train wreck.

Night and Day between, Lynn and Staley. I’ll use a famous line from Lynn with a twist. There is a reason he isn’t a head coach right now…

I am at a loss for words with the thought that Staley isn't much of an improvement over Lynn...

This is where I am at. Two wildcards, zero divisions, under .500. And he will have the most cap space he has ever had. I just hope Staley is a better partner in the scouting/film room than McCoy or Lynn were

The development of Pipkins would be a huge boost to offseason plans. Pipkins or Norton at RT could create better competition which only helps the depth. Jaimes - who knows. Aboushi - if he comes back. That means the OL could theoretically be 7 deep. Always still want more depth of course - but Pipkins, if the play is sustained, would be huge for RT moving forward.

At worst, I hope he’s at least good depth. A swing tackle essentially. Maybe never a legitimate starter but still better than what we all thought he was a year ago.

My take on Pipkins is that he can be relied on to fill in quite competently on occasion, when needed, but he's not going to be a guy you can depend on to be consistent, to play at a high level every week like a Rashawn Slater. Am I wrong?
