Wait, do we really think James gets suspended for that hit???

Doesn't help that it was a prime time game.

[Fouts2herbert]

Hope they fire him before the playoffs

Wouldn’t that be something, I don’t know that staley has the power to make that move anymore…

Considering the complete shitshow this season has been for the Chargers injury-wise, the fact they've earned a playoff berth is a monumental accomplishment. Let's just state that for the record.

I'm guessing it's a tribute to Brandon Staley, that the players stayed the course and kept doing the things that got them into this position.

After the early season losses of Slater, Bosa and Allen- plus Herb's rib situation-- I didn't think the postseason was a realistic expectation. Then it got worse with injuries to Corey Linsley, Mike W., and Derwin.

IMO, it was totally improbable that the Bolts hung tight. Mad props to all of them, that they *did*.

I doubt it, but if not he should rest anyway.

Trust me, No one wants to see Herbert and the Chargers in the playoffs especially if our D plays like this!!!! D wins games in the playoffs, and Ek and Joshua can handle the running just fine when the playoffs start!!!!!!! KC don't want any of this!!!!! If we play KC, Patrick Mahomes II is about to believe it to see it, if we are lucky enough to match up against them!!!! Doesn't matter who we play, we'll be ready. Bring it.

It was reported today that Joey Bosa will definitely be back at practice this week.

Dial it back a wee bit Derwin.

Let's go deep in January and February.

I think it is a tribute to Brandon, his defense really started playing better going back to he KC and SF losses, it’s been the defense that has fueled the 4-1 surge in the last five weeks, the one blemish the loss to the raiders

The 30+ crowd was trying to see if there were any standards for measuring success with Lombo's offense.
I was open to counter offers.

Non received! Any suggestion of a point total sent the scolds out to wag their fingers,
and other apologists scurrying back into their holes.

Victories are successes for now,
until they run into a team that can actually punch back

Was hoping our offense would be firing on all cylinders and having a decent play caller in there by the time we got into the playoffs. I sure don’t want a repeat of the Superbowl embarrassment we had in 1994

Doubt it! Fine for using his helmet.

When has that ever been a suspension? Receiver walked off on his own.

[CanadianBoltFan]

Rest list:
Mack
Ekeler

Anyone else?

If they win out they can still get 5th seed and a match with Jacksonville

The Superbowl embarrassment. Screw that game, the 49ers with Steve Young CHEATED the salary cap in that win and I'll tell Steve Young to his face theres and astric next to his only win and there always will be!!!!! They had to cheat to get his little win!!!!! Never forget that going forward. The cheating 49ers from that year can all go kick rocks.

20 is the new 40, good sir.

It is for me, it is indeed.

I’m almost sad for Charger fans who, after a week of posting “good teams show up and take care of business when it matters” while stating the Chargers wouldn’t, and demanding a 3-score victory, are now unable to be happy with a dominant decisive 3-score victory to clinch a playoff spot.

Obviously they can improve in execution here n there, Iwatched the Chief game over the weekend and guess what - they can too. I also saw the Bills game and guess what - they can too.

I knew from Indy’s first futile possession to open the game that they had no chance.

HUGE RESPECT for Coach Staley - he’s modified his defensive scheme over the last month after careful evaluation and adjustment of what was not working and why. He’s got that unit playing winning football, that shit didn’t just happen! This team overcame quite a lot to get to 9-6 and clinch a playoff ticket. Congratulations to the tough young men who did it.

omg, i just watched him give a game ball to Dean … threw up a little bit in my mouth lol
