    SuperBowl MVP, odds were preseason

          Bosa has zero chance of winning mvp. Its not a good bet at any odds. Unless Bosa comes back and gets 20 sacks to finish the season.
          Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.

            If i read his post correctly, the MVP part of his planned parlay bet in the preseason was for Superbowl MVP, not the regular season.

            and the odds on a LAC/LAR SB matchup parlayed with Bosa SB MVP would be a helluva lot shorter than 1000:1 right now.

                  Hopefully we beat AZ. Pitt and KC are losses. We probably split with Cincy and Baltimore. Which puts us at 9-6 heading into Denver probably needing a win to get in. Anyone's guess at that point. That's why today's loss was so brutal.

                  If it comes down to needing a win in the final game of the year, on the road in Denver, not sure if I trust them to pull it out.

                    I'm not talking about playoffs until there is something denoting that the Chargers had made the playoffs. Everyone needs to follow suit.

                      Don't get me wrong - these current Chargers have PROVED they can play with anybody.

                      But they sort of remind me of the 2009 Chargers with an offense that takes chunks downfield (better running game this year, as 2009 was twilight LT), but also kind of a weak defense up the middle with all the injuries to our DL/LBs. I know statistically our defense is ranked in the top 10 but I think we are flawed and can be exposed up the middle if a team comes in with the mindset to run all day on us.

                      I kind of worry how they would match up with a team that tries to muck up the game and play an ugly, physical style similar to what happened to us in 2009 against the Jets. How would we fare against the likes of the Ravens, Titans, Texans, or even Colts (I actually don't know what the Colts' D is ranked).

                      This is why I wonder if it's better for us to be a wild card so we most likely avoid those teams - I think we actually match up WAY better with the "elites" like Steelers, Chiefs, Pats. I'd be happy to get into a shootout with those teams and then bank on Bosa or Derwin making a clutch play down the stretch. I've been watching the Ravens quite a bit the last few weeks and their defense is TOUGH, they can run the ball, and Jackson makes enough plays with his feet to drive you crazy. I'd feel way better if we had Liuget, Mebane and Perryman ready to go.

                      I ultimately think that's where we will be vulnerable - against a tough team willing to ugly up the game. I really do get 2009 vibes from this team in some ways. One thing for sure, however, is that our coaching is way better and hopefully we don't have an axe wound for a kicker.

                      Make me feel better please, LOL. I really want Rivers/Gates to get it this year. Might be the best/last shot we get.

                        Seems like a loss will pretty much eliminate Baltimore. Steelers should beat CIN the last game and TEN and INDY host nfc east trash and then play each other. 1 of them should win both. Baltimore has to win both in that case. This game should be a good test for both offenses. Lamar Jackson has only faced bottom 10 defenses in his 5 starts (cin, oak, tb, atl, KC). Will be the best defense the Chargers face. They have a good secondary and Keenan likely is out. I don't think they will be able to pressure Rivers as well as KC did though.

                        They don't remind me of the '09 team too much...that team benefitted from a still terrible AFCW and got a gaudy record off that. Classic 'paper tiger'. Plus, Norv. That alone is a net loss

                        Yeah, this is exactly what I was talking about - EXPOSED.

                        This game was like an exact replay of the 2009 Jets playoff game.

                        OL has looked really bad the last few weeks too.

                        I'm ok being on the road but to face Baltimore or Houston would be game over.
