    Losing your fg kicker to an injury not sustained during a game or practice is just too chargers to comprehend

      agree...they are better at running than JAX is and JAX ran at will on us.......hopefully that was more about being flat...... and we will be fired up tomorrow....

        Yep. Do these things only happen to the Chargers?

            Small sample size doesn't leave room for OL scheme adjustment to level out.
            We should improve, No guarantees but if we can stabilize OL and pass pro, run blocking is next up.

              Looks like you're hanging a target on Derwin. You forgot Mack.

                Yeah, I definitely don't want to do that.

                I don't think Mack was a Pro Bowler last season was he?

                  Three of the four teams the Chargers have faced this season have top-10 run defenses. KC = 1. Jax = 7. Raiders = 10th.
                  Houston's run defense is 31st.
                  The Browns' run defense is 18th (113.3 yds per game)
                  The Chargers' run defense is 14th (109.8)

                    Vs Jax is evidence that we can totally eff a game up playing and trying to protect an injured Herbert. Scoring 10 pts, no TOP on offense, lots of 3 & outs left the D on the field most of the game and Jax had no reason not to run.
                    Vs Browns we SHOULD have some offense with JH mostly healthy. If we can take a lead and maintain offensive pressure, we got a shot.

                      Like with most teams, we can’t have back to back to back, 3 and outs. The defense can get tired as the game progresses if they constantly have to get on the field. I think that’s in a chapter of football 101.

                      This game is between a passing team and a running team. Which ever team sustains drives will win. It’s just good we are in a passing era of the NFL.

                        Headline: A grateful Myles Garrett aims to ‘change this game’ vs. Chargers and atone for Falcons loss in return from crash



                        Garrett suffered a sprained shoulder, an injury to his bicep and popped a blood vessel in his eye, when he rolled his 911 at 65 mph on Sept. 26, less than two weeks ago. He missed the Browns' game last week in Atlanta, when the Falcons rushed for 202 yards, most of it in the 2nd half.

                        “My body’s going to tell me how long I need to be out or when I’m ready to go back and it’s telling me I’m ready for some action right now.’’

                        Garrett practiced on a limited basis all week with a wrap on his shoulder and bicep, and ramped up throughout the week.

                        “I’ve been kind of taking it kind of light, trying to get there, but been progressing very well with my training and my treatments, so looking forward to see what I can do and I don’t think I’ll be hindered by it too much,” he said.

                        He’s not sure he’ll be up for a full load so soon after the harrowing accident, but he hopes to be even stronger by Sunday.

                        “I’ve been kind of building up with the rep count in practice as far as seeing my tolerance and seeing different positions that I’ve gotten my shoulder and my arm into and everything’s felt good up to now,” he said.
                        Doesn't sound like he's 100 percent, and it won't be surprising if his snaps are limited tomorrow, or if he has to leave the game because he's not all the way back. I think Lombardi is going to try to run the ball tomorrow as much as he can. To that end, I really hope they activate Spiller.

                          I have to watch a little more, but I read somewhere that Moore was really good on special teams. If so, he’s a keeper.
                          Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.
