Look for that same sequence against DEN in our last three drives. Look for that same sequence when momentum shifted against NO or when momentum was consolidated by TB early in the second half after we failed to kneel on the ball at our own 6 yard line at the end of the first half.
The answer is simple. Let Herbert throw the ball on first down, second down or both first and second down.
But our coaching staff simply cannot see it.
Lynn and Steichen have been the best defense against Herbert all season long, putting him behind the chains in drive after drive by going early down run heavy. It is asinine.

All season long Lynn and Steichen have lost or put games in jeopardy by going early down run heavy. It has killed drives and caused momentum to shift in game after game this season. This includes games against KC, TB, NO, DEN, MIA and LV tonight. All three drives that were halted and resulted in FG attempts tonight came after running plays were called on first and second down.

or
Lynn wants so hard to be a running team that he refuses to realize the best way for his team to win is pass the ball
Sure, everybody wants to be able to get 4 yards on first down to make down and distance favorable - but that is not happening. He needs to adapt and he hasn't.

Another impressive thing about Herbert...after a tough outing in Buffalo, followed by the absolute shellacking by the Patriots' defense...Herbert came back and has had back to back impressive outings four days apart, engineering game-winning drives to win consecutive games for the first time. You might expect a rookie QB to have his confidence crushed after a couple of bad games that included a 45-0 shellacking. After the Pats game I thought the league might have caught up to Herbert. But nope, he is unfazed and bounces right back to being a phenom. Just another indication of how rare of a talent, and person, he is.

Spot on, the kid seems to have the whole package. He has made an unwatchable season of Lynn on the sidelines with a random pooch and screwing it game after game fun to watch. Not the Lynn screwing the pooch but Herbert. Wow is this kid something. He has also shown us how good our young receivers Gyton and Johnson are. I think there is a very good young nucleolus here that can develop together.

I think there is a decent nucleus on the Chargers. Maybe I am a homer but they have been in so many games this year that really its down to a few plays a game.. So that makes the Special Teams debacle , the clock/game management this year very noticeable.
