Chargers Open As A 3 Point Favorite Over Dallas - Pre Game Discussion

[powderblueboy]

The Chargers cannot get over confident of course. I mean, the DAllas offense is pretty good.

But to have Lawrence out and possibly Gregory - their best pass rusher and another top DL player - big losses for a pretty average at best defense to begin with.

Even with Lawrence and Gregory it was a bottom tier defense.

I read an article that basically said Dallas couldn't stop the run last year,
but they didn't want to improve their IDL too much in the off season,
for fear that teams will start passing more.

They will have to shorten the game by running successfully,
and pretty much score tds every time in the red zone.

No fucks for anybody else’s injuries when the last decade and a half we’ve gone from on paper very solid to on the field very meh due to injuries. Ya play who ya got.

Thats a big loss for them. Good pass rusher. Put the pedal down and go after them - take advantage of the weakness

Lawrence out with injury
Gallup out with injury
Collins suspended
Randy Gregory - COVID

Gallup is definitely out?

Gonna have to do it this weekend, but those sites used to always set off my antivirus. I hope they are better than they were a few years ago.

Yes. You have to have good virus protection that you trust. I have Norton, and I do pay a bit of a premium for it, but I pay it specifically to protect my computer during football season. Norton will block any malicious site or malware. I've been doing it three seasons and my laptop has never been infected. I have a large laptop with a 17" screen. It's my only computer. I don't need a desktop with a screen this big on my laptop. I watch all the games I want to on this baby. I can watch the game(s) and simultaneously post on this here forum. The best of both worlds.

What are the odds Bulaga doesn't play Sunday? I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt that he really has been suffering one injury after another since Telesco gave him his contract. But he played in fewer than 38 percent of snaps last season, and he had to leave the game v. WFT on Sunday. Just makes me.....:dunno:

Backs are bad and are really bad for offensive linemen (watch Slater getting bent backwards play after play). I really don’t think he is faking it. But doesn’t matter ultimately if he cannot be counted on.

Not much data to go on, but it really seems as if this coaching staff errs on the side of holding guys out if they have knicks. All part of the plan to change the performance we have seen in recent past re; injuries?

Thats just giving guys a day extra with the trainer. I bet all those guys play Sunday except maybe Bulaga

Been lurking over on a couple of Cowboy forums. A few of them don't think we can hang with their offense. Majority of them seem to think it's a W for them...

Well, I guess that isn't exactly surprising, is it? lol

Truly, they expect a title every year, and are crushed when it doesn't happen.

This game? The primary matchup I'm concerned about is the Bolts' ability to stop Zeke Elliot. It's the only matchup situation that has me, as a Charger fan, sweating.
