    I believe it is November 2 - so three weeks away

    Teams like the Jags and Lions, probably going to be sellers
    Same with the Texans

      TT went all in on the OL this past off season and he had to and it’s paying off. But in doing so the DL and other positions were neglected.

        You are correct = but I think I was good with really focusing on the OL. It made sense

        Just looking a few teams around the league for veteran players that might be on the market

        Somebody brought up Brockers - not getting traded. Just signed a new deal - the Lions really can't afford to trade him cap wise. So looking at Over the Cap for names

        Sheldon Rankins from the Jets - could be an option

        Maliek Collins from the Texans

        Taven Bryan from the Jaguars - Telesco liked him out of college, would have been the pick if not for Derwin James. His option not picked up

        So if looking for DLine depth that won't break the bank but be an upgrade from Merrill, and hopefully Justin JOnes comes back

          Did you guys notice that zero game ball went to a rookie so far? Slater and ASJ could have easily got one. I think Staley is reserving them to the vets so the rookies don’t get complacent and keeps improving.

            Maybe I overstepped? You think?

            In a certain way, Fan Forums are families. Within families, you can generally call someone a 'knucklehead' (Eeyore) without drama. We're brothers.

            As I pointed out, I would understand offense at something more denigrating than 'Eeyore', but... just where on the Outrage Meter do you see 'Eeyore' resting?

            I'm thinking, if the volume knob goes up to '10', 'Eeyore' registers as a '2'. (If the volume knob goes up to '11', I'd concede a '3').

            Within a family? I don't personally think 2's are reason for offense, but i can see where reasonable minds could differ.

            So I'll as *YOU* as a forum brother, pbb... Do you think I owe uglytruth an apology? I'll definitely consider your opinion. Thank you.

              but there were also alot of missed calls on both teams that weren't called.....

              This year is the first year that I can remember in a long time where Chargers have received some favorable calls to go along with some of the bogus ones..... nice to have some balance.....
              I'll take what we get. We got jobbed against Dallas and this 50/50 went our way. I would rather have our crew today than the KC/Buffalo crew last night. there had to be 25 penalties called in that game.

                That was an ugly game. I think KC is on a free fall. The only postive for them is they still have a reliable kicker. Butker doing his thing even in heavy rain. What a stud.

                  And notice how the Browns tried to out-Charger the Chargers early on by going for it on 4th down a couple of times, themselves?
                  That's because they knew if they gave Herbert and our boys the ball back, it was CHA-CHING-GADERA!!!! This team does not blink.......

                    Throw insults in the trash and use facts. It makes your argument much stronger.
                    Ahem........well.......we thought it was funny.........

                      Ugly truth performs a function within this forum: absolute negativity towards any and every aspect of the Charger team.

                      I kind of like his shtick, but like most members (including myself), he can be annoying at times.

                      Some people just see things differently and there is no need to try to convince the whole world to one's point.

                      Let people be different.

                        NOrv Turner approves that message.
