Most of these dropped after the bye week...

All-Pro safety Derwin James was activated off injured reserve and seems likely to play this week. Hopefully he’s 100 percent, and no less than that, because this is a lost season for the Chargers and James is too good to rush back.

I think Tua Tagovailoa is a logical fit for the Chargers, so I mocked him to them in the 2020 NFL Mock Draft. Tagovailoa won't be ready until 2021, so it would make sense for him to sit behind Philip Rivers for a year and learn from a future Hall of Famer.

The hard truth: If the Chargers wanted a realistic chance of playing football in January, they had to find a way to beat either the Raiders or Chiefs in their past two games. They lost both and now stand in the position of having to win out to even have a chance. Putting together a winning streak like that would take the kind of consistency we simply haven't seen from the Bolts since last year. That said, the Philip Rivers career obituaries felt premature after last Monday night's four-interception nightmare. Rivers has undeniably taken a step back this season -- only Jameis Winston (24) and Daniel Jones (18) have more giveaways than Rivers (16) this season -- but he's also the type of player who can go off on a hot streak at any moment. The Chargers might not make the playoffs, but they could be a deadly spoiler down the stretch.
