Chargers @ WFT GDT and Post Game Discussion (Wk 1)

[Ghost of Quacksaw]

Good to win but beating a Washington team led by Tyler Heneiche isn’t that inspiring.

Nassir Adderly does not impress at all. He had an INT go right through his hands giving up a huge play to Washington. Then he got flat out embarrassed on a super basic route where he gave up the TD.

I couldn’t believe it when Telesco passed on Juan Thornhill for Adderly and it’s still mind blowing.

Had Adderley secured the ball, he'd have landed out of bounds. There was no INT to be had, but he COULD have batted the ball down.

This was a fun read after watching the game without participating.
Some of our posters are fucking hilarious with their emotional outbursts at every slight imperfection the Bolts put on the field. Negative Nancys even in victory. They collapse into a personal void with their hysterics.
So fun to read the 87 pages and figure what people should never be left in a position of authority, leadership, or command.

There was a movement to fire Tom Telesco by the middle of the 3rd quarter;
Staley seemed to be on shaky grounds soon after: something about not being up to the challenge.
Refs got shredded as usual.


We were in mid season form.

Adderley was there on time over the top: that's what we want to see out of him.

Sometimes these things happen.

It’s the beauty of being an emotionally invested fan. Riding the big ups and downs over the course of the game

His arm got hit as he was passing. his arm was clearly coming forward and it was an imcomplete that flew about 15 yards and bounced in and through the end zone. Refs bizarrely called it a fumble for WFT touchback. Ridiculous.

Ya, for me its the worst replay call I can remember.
I can understand in the heat of the moment calling it a fumble, but the replay CLEARLY....CLEARLY showed his arm moving forward with the ball in his hand.

Astounding it was not ruled an incompletion by the replay officials.

CBS Sports grade.

CBS Sports grade.

Herbert was 14-19 on 3rd downs vs the best d-line of the NFL.

Only 2 TDs in 6 trips in the red zone....well first of all it would've been 3TDs in the red zone. Second, we made 6 trips down there? = means our o-line was winning more battles.

[equivocation]

Their 3rd down d was 37.8% last year. Let that sink in.

I think Adderley played better than last year but there's still plenty of room to improve. Remember, they had like 240 yards total. Some of that was flukey stuff.

[AK47]

" Washington’s rookies struggle: Sam Cosmi won’t have to line up against a three-time Pro Bowl pick and former defensive rookie of the year every week, but the Washington rookie right tackle did Sunday, and it made for a tough debut. Joey Bosa made his presence felt from the start, when his pressure on Fitzpatrick helped force a three-and-out on Washington’s first possession. Bosa had a sack-fumble later in the half and generally made life difficult for Cosmi, Fitzpatrick and Heinicke, though he did commit a couple of roughing the passer penalties that kept Washington in the game."

It has nothing to do with 'tenure'.

I'd like to see him come hard at people during a losing strength. That would take big brass balls.

I joined the Chargers as a fan when they were LAST in the division. I will protect this house, and that includes fellow fans willing to invest in the team, and risk themselves!

It's not that hard to tell the difference between thoughtful, well-deserved criticism and the fan who is just a coward or whiney bitch.
