    Peter King: "Every receiver going back to John Jefferson for the Chargers is injured." :lol: Made me laugh. But he challenges Justin Herbert to show he's a true franchise QB by finding a way to win despite having no receivers. Kind of a big ask isn't it?

      Those three years - still as good of a WR as I have seen play. I get the very small sample size.

      But he was damn good

        Yeah im sure THATS in the playbook lol. That is a pure running attack offense. How is that imaginative?
        Id bet the farm you will never see that in our offense with Lombo, or Payton......or anyone in the league. Baltimore dont even run that.

          Rivers did it, but he didnt have injured ribs then.

              Rivers always had a running game.

              Herbert has no receivers, no running attack, no ribs, clueless coaches, and a kicker who was bagging groceries last week.

              Only idiots are expecting him to overcome those obstacles.

              Unless the defense steps up, Chargers don’t stand a prayer in hell against Falcons.

                  I guess Carter is feeling better.

                  so it’s Palmer, Carter, Bandy, Moore and Doss at WR.

                  Heaven help us

                    No he didnt. In 2015 for one, they didnt have a single RB with at least 4 YPC and the team total was 3.5 YPC. 2016 the team YPC was 3.8. Of course those were losing seasons too.

                    He had some other seasons with a weak run game. You cant say he had some bad OLs, ...which he did and then say he always had a good run game.

                      Hard to say a 5th round pick is a bust but they arent giving Reed chances or if he is hurt again, then he has to go. Cut him and pick up up someone else.

                        Didn't have much of a running game in 2009, but they still went 13 - 3.

                        Some years he had a running game, some years no. Mathews and Gordon were often injured.

                          At least they saved a 4rth - 6th round draft pick for next year.

                          Hey, once in a blue moon TT will get a Salyer.
