POLL: Which Charger Has Their Biggest Make-Or-Break Season Coming Up?

[Bolt Dude]

So far, looks like Tillery is in the hot seat...

At least he’s on an upward trajectory.

2019–2020
17 tackles 30
2 sacks 3
3 hits 14
9 pressures 22
0 FF 2

At that pace 2021 is ~ spitballing here..

Still a little less than I’d expect from a first rounder,
but decent.

I voted for three, tillery, pumpkins, and badgley. they all need to do something this year.

[OhioBolt]

Gotta say Tillery first, Nas second.

I would flip this I know Coach Staley thinks both can have good season based on his assessment, but I don't see Tillery breaking out he will have a splash play here and there but nothing was done in my opinion to sure up the D-line and still unknown how effective Nwosu be over the course of the season.

This brings me to NAS he was bad last year, but I think he will benefit from the return of Derwin James, and the addition of Asante Samuel Jr, and hopefully a healthy Cliff Harris for the full season, and I think Michael Davis takes another step and improves, he has each season he has been in the league. The game should slow down for NAS this year and kid has talent and I think coaching will benefit him and Tillery.

My Vote NAS

[Topcat]

Tillery still in the hot seat, but Mike Will making his move...

[Katdnzr]

U predicting Beluga gets hurt again?

(...and not saying yer wrong, either...hope he stays healthy...)

Just like death and taxes!

I would absolutely take 5 sacks and 37 pressures from an IDL taken at the back of the 1st round.

Yeah, you’re right. 37 pressures is pretty high. Couldn’t find a good site that lists that stat. But just saw that Aaron Donald had 38 pressures in 2020, so I guess that’d be an elite #.

Hopefully Tillery keeps pushing that trajectory.

LAR last year had a low pressure % but a high sack %. Their rushers were getting home by delaying the QB decision.

From an IDL getting consistent pressure means collapsing the pocket.

[ChargersPowderBlue]

I didn't vote on the poll. But the guys who I would have voted for have the fewest. Chris Harris Jr. and Justin Jones. Then there's Bulaga too, I'm sure people were getting tired of his injury proneness.

Agreed.
I am looking for lots of coverage sacks from Bosa and Co.

[Lucab12]

Me too. Done with Badgley. I want to have a kicker with leg that can kick FG and touchbacks.

Bye Bye Money Bungler

Bulaga is under contract for 2022. Hopefully his back cooperates.

Re Mike Williams, it is rare that an F-Tagged player does NOT move on. Does he want to stay ?

My candidate is Justin Jones, the poor man's Aaron Donald. The potential for great impact is there, if only due to scheme and his "leaning up."

I chose Justin Jones because you heard the last two seasons how he was going to turn it on.
Maybe Bradley's D got the most out of him and it was unwarranted hype..
We will know with Staley.

I chose Derwin wondering if he can stay healthy.


Pipkens is who he is....an okay swing tackle would be his ceiling.
Tillery is who he is.....a guy Telesco should have passed on.
