I am not sure why not Reed but see what Doss does. Not much to scare the Falcons thats for sure

The Chargers are 4-3 playing the easiest schedule in the league, based on this season's win totals.
The Falcons are 4-4 playing the third easiest schedule in the league.
The Chargers' four victories have been against two teams in third place in their divisions an two in fourth place. The combined record of the teams they have defeated is 9-21-1.
Their three losses are to a pair of first place teams (KC, Seattle) and one in third place (Jax). The combined record of these three teams is 12-11.

I know this is getting ahead, but I've been thinking about next week's game v. the Niners in Santa Clara. Starting when the league re-aligned 20 years ago in 2002, the Chargers and 49ers have played every four years - five games. And the Chargers have won them all.
2002 20-17 Brees vs. Jeff Garcia
2006 48-19 LT 4 TDs
2010 34-7 VJ 112 yds 3 TDs
2014 38-35 Rivers 356 yds 4 TDs
2018 29-27 49ers jumped out to 14-0 lead, but then Rivers went off
I've really enjoyed that mastery over everybody's favorite team up here, and I look forward to this game with a combination of dread and hopefulness. How the Chargers play tomorrow will be telling if the Chargers are up to the challenge.
