Titans @ Chargers Pre Game Thread | (Wk 15)

[Canal Zone Bolt Fan]

How do we attack this defense this week? Obviously not too concerned with the passing game but king Henry is coming to town and they are going to win a pound it down our throats! We are so bad against the run… 5 – 2– 4?

Congrats on a fantastic win over Miami. The team looks so much better will a healthy Herbert & Williams. You guys should be getting more guys back to health soon. I said it before: Chargers will be in the play offs and have a shot at the SB. There are no great teams in the AFC. In fact the team I least want to face in the playoffs is the Chargers. Wishing you guys well until you play KC.

Not the Bengals?

Roll Herbie out...that will buy him 2-3 more seconds...and you refer to Mike Will as an "old goat"...well, for an old goat, he's not too BAAAAADDD...

he’s very good, just not a 4.3 speed threat downfield.

Good point. If the Titans pull that Raider wide edge special, I suggest keeping Herbie under center most of the game, handing off to Ekkie and Kelley, with a lot of play action...this makes the pass more effective...also, I'd like to see a lot of 2-back sets...I formation, and either hand off to one of the two backs, or sometimes shift out of the I and split the backs for max protect...if the pressure is contained on the left side for example, the RB who is split out on the left side peels out for a late swing pass...

Roll out right. Throw across your body to left side of field. Oh and 40 yards in the air. Oh and lay it in the WR's hands accurately. Don't mind that 280lb d-linemen coming at you. If it were that easy every QB would do it lol.

To Herbie these are layups.

It was actually over 50 yards I believe

If Miami loses Saturday night, I think the Chargers will be in control of playoff destiny. Granted NE does play MIami the last game so they might be in control of their fate today.

Just need to beat the Titans

I liked the way this defense played the 49er run game but then they lose otito and covington in that game…can they try to reproduce that with davidson, fehoko, and a banged up SJD against Tennesse? I believe the chargers need to win 3 of their last 4 to get in and they always struggle in Denver so IMO this one Indy, and LAR are all must win games…with a playoff spot clinched the denver game could even serve as a bye week for some of the more banged up guys like SJD and Pipkins, you could even rest KA, MW, and ekeler for the playoffs…I don’t like the prospect of Den getting the opportunity to play spoiler at home…they need these next three games…

It would be ideal if go 3-0 and don't need the Denver game. I am starting to think Miami continues to plunge and may be the odd man out

40 times are pretty relative. Mike has some long speed and wins one on one match ups.
You want to throw downfield, block for another 1/2 second.
GOAT WR Jerry Rice totally sucked on the track in shorts.
A real burner does move coverage back if he can get loose, whether you throw to him or not and that's a plus.

I think Ten wins the south, Cincy wins the north, leaving Bal, NYJ, NE, Miami, and LAC competing for the final three spots, NE is not going to make it, so the chargers need to do better than NYJ or Miami and they own the tiebreaker over both teams ATM…Baltimore always seems to play well despite missing key guys

I think in the end Bal is the #5 seed, and the chargers or dolphins and up being the #6 seed or #7 seed leaving NYJ and NE out of the playoffs, but the chargers need to go 3-1 to finish, I want them to get those three wins before going to denver, I don’t trust (even a healthy charger team) the chargers in denver against that defense…

it was interesting in that game to see how often MW just ran downfield on go routes during the game. It seemed they were doing it to free up routes underneath and maybe to see if Miami would bite on something or blow a coverage but he was running sprints for most of that game.

Maybe running a lot of routes that require cutting at high speeds are not the best for his ankle ATM? IDK, but for a non speed guy MW sure seems to catch a lot of deep passes…We have definitely missed him and parham in the redzone this year, we went from being one of the better redzone teams in 2021 to being one of the worse with those two men out of the lineup…
