    Don’t forget, Miami did that with none of their original picks. Something the Chargers don’t have.

      I agree. Honest take just like Daniel Jeremiah and Money.

          I totally disagree. I think Popper does a good job of keeping us aware of what the Bolts are doing. I do think he's more than just a reporter, I think he's also a fan and so he colors things a bit, as many of us would do, but I think he is honest and knowledgeable.

            Chargers are very poor in Red Zone defense,
            and in defensive big plays allowed.

            This is significant, as those are hallmark areas of StaleyD concepts.

            The WAR is unfortunately high too.

            Health is needed, yes,
            and also better soundness in playing the scheme.
            We do not play modern football.

              Popper is the most thorough, knowledgable and best beat writer out there. We are lucky to have him

              He also asks the best questions, and the hard questions at press conferences.

                Popper is the best of a weak bunch of best writers. And his content is typically pretty solid. But he doesn’t ask the really hard questions, probably because he needs to strike a balance to maintain his access to and the candor of the team.

                  Yes you are right there, but he does ask the least softball questions of the group.

                  Today he asked what Staley what he would say to fans about an inactive trade deadline.

                  When Staley left Herbert in with injured ribs when the game was out of hand, he hammered Staley with questions on that

                  He doesnt completely wimp out

                      A lot of [posters on the board said we should move on from Keenan before the season and I was resistant. I want to say to all of them that you were right. We should have traded Keenan. Might have been able to get something for him before the season started.

                        Yes. But also VERY disappointed in Palmer.

                          I thought it was fairly obvious, what with the huge extension to MW, and the 3rd round grab of Palmer, that Keenan would be shifted.
                          Shame it didn't happen. LOVE Keenan but time to move on.
