Pre-Game Discussion: Chargers 16.5 pt Favorites vs. Dolphins

[captaind]

Just unreal.

[Charge!]

Incredibly close to giving up on this injury plagued season and cursed team in general. It's looking like 8-8 and no playoffs.

agree..... this team should have lost week one and has been getting worse overall each week, not better...... and mistakes, and injuries are growing each week.....

we have to stop[ making excuses, like its only one loss to an NFC team?...... or its only 2 losses its a long season(which is what team snd coaches are saying)...... and we are going to start playing tougher games after the MIA game..... though we very easily might lose to MIA and be their only win of season......

Last year we played fairly well overall and our losses were spread out over the season..... and losing to the best team in playoffs made everyone think we may not be as good as NE but we should still contend?..... but this is a very very ugly way to start a season..... if we lose to MIA, i would expect us to lose to DEN and PIT also.........since we cannot stop strong running teams....

Why should we have lost week one? We made a few less mistakes than the Colts did. But if a few plays either way sways you on the outcome of games, than you could just as easily say we should be 3-0 if not for some really ticky tack penalties.

And for the record, we were 1-2 last year after 3 games too.

Current Vegas Insider consensus is now Chargers 15pt favorite.

We should be 3-0. Self inflicted stupidity caused the losses. Keep their flippin minds right, we got this.

We also started 1-2 last year.

I have the Chargers by 10.

sorry, I know football is a rough sport but we're soft as baby shit

Yes, close games CAN be more entertaining, BUT when the Chargers play a winless, horrible team(that is clearly worst in NFL), and if the Chargers ONLY manage to beat them in a low scoring close game such as 17-13........ and every other team has been beating them by 30+ points....... that game would be extremely stressful.... obviously having lots of chargers mistakes and blunders to keep it that close, which would continue to be a bad omen going forward...... like our first 3 debacles....

If the Chargers continue to not be able to stop the run, and continue to have no clue how to finish drives with TD's instead of ending drives with penalties, sacks and turnovers..... we are not going to win many games and are not likely to make playoffs.....

Every team we play after miami has a strong running game and if they are smart they will pound it at us until we stop it or wither away.......

This Chargers team had better suck it up and score well over 30 points against a horrible MIA team and shut down their running game, or we will likely lose to DEN, PIT, and TEN.... who will run all over us...

This week a 40 point blowout is needed...... this team needs to open up the offense in redzone and score many TD's.... we have been getting worse at scoring every week...... like we are forgetting how and losing confidence in the offense...... which is why coaches have made Ekler and Allen the huge majority of the offense..... like the coaches trust no one else..... it makes it easy for defenses to know who to cover on critical plays.......

Get the W. Avoid more injuries. Nothing else matters.

Andre Patton gonna eat...

[blueman]

Yeah, who is playing opposite KA? Patton, Scott, somebody Lynn happens to take a shining to this week? Very curious who Rivers will be throwing to...
