This guy is a hater lol. I don’t think Burrow played bad, he had bad drops etc but Herbert still outplayed him overall.

Hopefully no one started a poll on it yet.

I PROMISE I won't start up a "Is it time to trade Bosa?" poll...

Bengals were missing like 3 starters alongside their OL, I think that played a bigger role in stopping their run game than Chargers defense did. It’s similar to the Raiders game from earlier this season where the Chargers shut them down because they had lot of injuries on the ol and the following weeks Chargers got smashed on the run game by teams with half decent OLs.

We were missing 3 starters on our DL so I’m not buying it

There HAS to be a reason we didn’t really win..

I can’t actively root for Denver I just can’t.

Hmmm - three teams would be tied with 7-5 records

KC would be 1-2 in division and 2-5 in conference

Denver would be 2-1 in division and 4-4 in conference

Chargers would be 2-1 in division but 5-3 in conference

I think with the three way tiebreaker - chargers might be the top seed based on conference record
granted, if the three team tiebreaker is head to head
KC 0-2
Denver 2-0
Chargers 1-1

very interesting.....

Yep:

Yes our opponents always have key injuries but we don’t have any. Never mind we are missing 2/5 of our starting g OL and once Jones went out we’re missing 3/4 of our starting DL and arguably our best cover corner

Burrow is a good QB and played with a dislocated pinky that got popped back in but that asside, i think Orvlosky is a little full of himself.

But but but we won and Cincy has better talent top to bottom. Something doesn’t compute.

Or maybe LAC played a bit better today. Is it depressing to conclude every bad outcome is because of their talent and/or coaching, but every good outcome is some form of luck?

Saying it for the second week in a row, this Chargers team can still run the table and finish at 12-5.
