    QJ has one thing the receivers above him don't, "explosiveness". He may start at number four or 3B, but it will be a huge disappointment to finish there. He has the luxury of having not to rush with good WR ahead of him. But great players don't wait and he appears to have hunger to be something special, time will tell.

      QJ feelin the heat!

      Wide receiver Quentin Johnston and linebacker Daiyan Henley take on the wings of death in the Season 2 finale of the Chargers Edition of the Hot Ones special, Truth or Dab. These NFL Pros have two simple choices: tell the truth or suffer the wrath of the

        Having multiple goo WR's means they can run deep routes and keep rotating in between.

        Also injuries happen.

          QJ seems to be able to get open quick.
          That will really help in the red zone.
          Yet to be determined imo.

            Everyone over reads in one direction or another, me included. It won’t be a huge disappointment if KA, MW and JP all are having career years, if the run game discovery reduces needed pass yards from 300 ypg to 240 ypg, etc. TEAM is what matters.

            Disappointment only comes from team results imo. I am not expecting a lot of that this year, but as a leading politician in the town of Flipville, I would not disclose if I were. But I’m not

              This is my expectation, more rotation as they don’t drop off from WR1/2 to WR3/4 much or at all. Also adds the element of difference to DBs concerns, each WR will run slightly different, different cut move setups, different acceleration out of cuts, on and on - DBs needing to work perfect technique to stay in position have to think a lot more and that usually means some lapses.

                Also.....How many above average DB's do our opponents have? If you only have 3 or less. Moore better attack.

                      Absolutely! It will be a nightmare for opposing defenses to matchup with the Chargers. Each one of those guys have different skillsets.

                      KA = precise routes... sets his opponent up. Good luck to young DB's stopping that.
                      MW = Strong and physical. He'll win most 50/50 balls. Good luck to any DB under 6-foot.
                      JP = Another good route runner with good hands. For secondaries lacking depth... Palmer will beat them.
                      QJ = Strong, fast, and good YAC moves. If he's drawing #3 and #4 DB's... his traits will win, he may take you to the house.

                      Throw Everett in there when you need a size mis-match. Throw DD in there when you want a speed mis-match.
                      Moore has a lot of weapons and a sharp offensive mind... I hope he never gets complacent. Pedal to the Metal...
                      Protect the QB
                      Run the ball
                      Play great defense

                        Defenses will have to deal with all that^ plus I think we see the return of the running element from Herbert this year. Another way to stress test defenses.

                        Should Moore's downhill running be implemented successfully.....interesting to see our WRs blocking to free up our RB's in the second level. Our weapons are bigger/stronger than most DBs.
