The Official 2026 Chargers Season Discussion - (0-2)

I thought I'd made it abundantly clear that my sarcasm meter was spiking off the scale when I posted this...and with my follow-up comments, but since a number of you have taken me seriously I take fully responsibility for not making that more obvious.

Gabe Nabers, Clapp, Bosa, Samuel...etc...weren't strong enough clues a game was afoot? Only drafting one player?

Ah well...my bad.

Shucks. The band that got back to together didn't hit the road for even a day.

For future reference boys: if you see a YAC post...there's a 47% chance it's playful mischief. I don't take myself or football all that seriously. Cheers.

Oh a wise guy eh
Lol, I'll take that into account and look more carefully next time. But hey I don't want to see Feeney's name in our lineup ever again. The OC woes continue

Guys I’m going to just start manifesting this energy right now…but I have a feeling we are going to get Linderbaum this offseason.

I think Hortiz and Harbaugh are done fucking around.

It wouldn't be the worst idea -- it may not be Linderbaum but they are going to fix the OL very aggressively

[Bolts&noles]

So Boz,Dupree and possibly Becton to be released today right?

Probably not today -- more likely closer to free agency

The offense will be fine with or without Linderbaum.

McCarthy and Hortiz will identify a Center and the rest of the OL tailored to execute his schemes best.

BTW, that wont include Penning as a starter.

So i wouldnt be against drafting a CB early depending on FAcy of course. Christian Gonzales is a stud and he shuts down teams best recievers. Hart has been OK for us but his rating against the pass was 105 last season. I like him but we can do better.
Seattles defense was just outstanding yesterday. Josh Jobe had a good game as well. Their MLB Ernest Jones quietly had a very good year. We need a better ILB to pair with Henley. Love Perryman but he just cant stay healthy and is 33 now and Dye is a solid backup. Junior Colson we dont know what we have in him. Of course by far and away , the OL needs major attention.

Hope they dont hesitate to release Becton of Boze. Let us know thats going to be a big priority.

Agree with you about CB and LB
So when I see people write or podcasts says "run it back again" - I don't see it. I want to get better - if they can on defense. And yes, need to figure out Oweh and Mack and of course Oline but I can see a draft pick being used on a CB

Don't forget to bring some panic here when free agency starts, there are a few teams in the running, and the signing isnt official 😀

It has served us well in the past!

If they can resign D. Phillips not only for ST but depth, I think they will be ok at LBer for this year. Got to keep our eye on Marlow Wax. They would go into the season with Henley, Dye, Wax, Phillips and Colston. I’m good with that as long as they make the IDL and Edge group dominate. This is Colston last year to get and stay healthy.

I really do like Aiden Fisher from Indiana. If he is there in the 4th, it would be tempting.

What scenario would be best in your opinions?

Resign Oweh for 3 years $60 mil and sign David Ojabo for 1 year $3.5 mil?

or

Resign Mack for 1 year $14 mil and sign Boye Mafe to 3 years $33 mil?

why not both Mack and Oweh?

That said - -I am open to Hortiz improving the defense so if money is spread out a bit more -- meaning adding a LB and spending less on 3rd Edge - I am open for it
