Chargers @ Texans Pregame Thread (Week 4)

[La Costa Boy]

So the Texans have the 28th ranked offense and 28th ranked defense. Maybe WE are what THEY need to get back on track???

There I fixed it to what some on here are reading when they see your post.

Slater is out for the year according to Rappaport.

If true, may as well sit Herbert until he's fully healed. However long that takes.

Hey - I'm telling grandpa you modified my post!

Oh my, I didn't expect that. We are suddenly back to having one of the worst OL's in the league. I would definitely move Pip to LT in that case.

Agreed. And while the loss the Jax can't be blamed on Herbie's injury - it was a 100% team loss - it sounded as if some of his throws were 'off', which could definitely be attributed to his injury. I mean if the Chargers are serious about the future of their franchise QB - and the next few games will show me if they are - then they should give him all the time he needs NOW, in a lost season, to get back to health.

Not going to get my hopes up for this one. Even with a depleted roster, they should still win. If not, it will only get worse moving forward.

Agreed, Let Daniel take the beating and earn some of the millions he is scamming the Chargers for.

Burrow played in the SB after being sacked @ 15 times per game average. Buttercup needs to learn to get the ball out.
The effing run game has to get traction.
They all signed up to play in the NFL. Grow a pair or get a different job.
Talent ain't sh** without guts.

An old tweet, but still...

Pipkins is the best LT option right now.
Who's the best RT option right now, Norton or Feiler?
And since Feiler has been struggling at LG since Linsley's been out, why not give the rookie Salyer a chance at LG?
With Slater out, Chargers can't claim cohesion or continuity anymore as their excuse.
This combo should be good enough to get you through: Pipkins - Salyer - Clapp/Linsley - Johnson - Feiler

This is where a good OL coach can make a difference. Do we have one?
