face it folks: Hall of Fame QB 16yr veterans dont miss open receivers and throw into double coverage when facing prevent defense.
A pretty decent QB overall with the stats to back it up, just never been elite in my book. Yards aren't enough to win games.

personally think it's folly to look much further than @the likes of Tevi, Pip and Scott, and not to mention our pass catchers who were without separation more oft than not.
a Raider fan friend of mine also noted that we were sleeping on their DB Harris, as he is their right place/right time safety (valve), and is fairly well thought of in Raiders circles.
personally would look Oline in FA, and pick up players that I thought were Chargers compatible.... (we're still riding the John Spanos learning curve here as he decides/figures out what our team's identity is).
far as I'm concerned, and w/all due respect to AL & Co., the biggest factor if I'm the aforementioned, is when does D. Shaw's contract expire ??5/11 Fuaga, 37 Kamari Lassiter, 40 Sinnott, 67 Bralen Trice, 69 Cedric Gray, 105 Jaylen Wright, 110 Braelon Allen, 140 Joe Milton, 181 Khristian Boyd, Tylan Grable, 225 Daijun Edwards, 253 Miyan Williams

It's tough to spot an NFL team 10 points in the 1st, especially one that is ranked 11th overall in offense.
Granted, the D did give up the late score but when you only allow16 points whilst you're on the field, that should be good enough to win most weeks.
Ultimately, it's he who shall remain nameless that is to blame.
Here's to 2020!

I think Rivers is doing his best. It's people around him that are to blame. Like the complete patchwork oline. Sorry guys but that is HUGE. Brady, Brees, Stafford, Montana whoever. If you don't have a clean pocket you aren't going to pass effectively no matter who you are. As like every year it seems this team can't escape injuries. Blows my mind.

Given time Rivers is still a top flight QB that can get it done. If he gets hit early and loses confidence - especially on his blindside - he gets a little panicky. He is getting some age now and has been hit way too much this year. If he had decent protection and could trust his LT you would see a much different QB. You gotta admit, when Okung is not healthy our players at tackle have to be some of the worst in the league. How is that Rivers fault. He is a competitor and will always try to do too much when he has no choice, but history has show that when we give him decent blocking and support he can get it done. Shame on TT for ignoring the Oline again this year until the 3rd round, and then drafting another project - that stuff is not on 17. Dalton Risner was there, and actually fell to 41 - Once again TT could have dropped back, picked up some picks and still got some Oline help. Instead we sit there once again and take whats left - and don't make any more out of it than that. He had better get creative this off season as we have a bunch of needs. I like how he handles his business and does so with no drama - but don't like his predictability and unwillingness to move around (especially down to gain more picks) in the draft.
