Did I say power house? Don't think so. They are a pretty good team though. They were also 7-9 last year, but lost six of those by 7 or less, including two OT losses. They lost in OT to the Chiefs, and then beat the Chiefs.

Don't be surprised if they win that division this year.

Every year average teams become great, and great teams become average or worse.

You can only rely on last season's results so much.

The Chargers are off to a hot start - wouldn't surprise me to see them win 10+ games this year.

Wait, us losing to the Chargers is world ending blow it all up WFT is the worst ever etc.... but the Chargers beating us in week one means they are off to a hot start. If we are so bad how is beating us off to a hot start?

I am not picking on you Mooby just us as a group.

Chase Young is a franchise pass-rusher. He just won rookie of the year. You don't have to be a 1st-ballot hall of famer after 18 games to qualify as such imo.

It's funny to me how hard the crash back to reality was - the mood around here was upbeat before yesterday, nobody expected us to blow them out yesterday but the general consensus thought it was a winnable game.

But from the first snap yesterday it seemed like they rolled everywhere except the scoreboard. We got a few lucky breaks and hung around but in the end they pulled away.

I still believe our team is nowhere near good enough to compete with the upper tier teams of the NFL. Doesn't mean it can't happen this season though, it just means it might take a few weeks for this team to start firing on all cylinders.

No he isn't. If he was then he would have done what Bosa did yesterday. He just isn't as good, at least not yet.

Basically the last two games that I have seen Young he has been a total non factor.

It's probably actually a blessing in disguise that Fitzpatrick went down. I never wanted him here in the first place. There were better options out there if you weren't going to draft a QB, or roll with Taylor.

Let's see if they can bounce back on Thursday before drawing too many conclusions about how the season will end up.[/QUOTE]


Agree about Taylor but this team isn’t winning more than 8 games regardless of Thursday. That is where my money would go if i had to bet at least

Chase Young is amazing bait for any trade that bring us a franchise QB or a few pro bowl quality players that we could fill holes with.

I am not sure Chase Young himself can save this franchise. ITs equal to having a golden heated toilet in your bathroom but your septic system is all jacked up in your back yard. Might want sell that toilet get a normal one and use the profits to fix the septic system out back.

Re: Week 1 - Post-game Thread
 

[B]Good:[/B]

Run game - 126 run yards, 27 carries, 4.7 ypr. Interior run game looked pretty good. Seems like they got good initial push, made some holes, held the blocks and Gibson looked assertive.

Red Zone D - held Chargers to 2/6

Run D - held them to 90 yards, 26 carries for 3.1 ypr

Gibson - I thought he stepped his game up. Made guys miss, run through some arm tackles, able to go north south maximizing his yards. Smart runner. The fumble was killer and perhaps the biggest MO changer of the game.

Deandre Carter - 3 KO returns for 65 yards, 2 punt returns for 22. He will help in field position battle.

Bobby McCain - looked like a legit player, flashed, nice find by the FO. This guy can contribute.

Terry/Logan - Terry caught all 4 of his targets, Thomas caught all 3 of his targets

Tress Way - solid, 2 inside the 20

Cheeseman - didnt hear his name called = good job rookie

[B]Bad:[/B]

7 of Chargers 9 possession got into the RZ - heard this on radio

334 passing yards allowed - Del Rio got outcoached, especially in the first half and the chargers last possession of 15 plays, 72 yards to run the last 6:43 mins of clock time.

------------------

My biggest problem is that the Chargers did what all the teams did to us in the second half of last year. They would move guys around in motion, isolate a good matchup and then just exploit our LBs or our corners play soft.

5:29 left in a 20-16 game, we had them on a 3rd and 16 at their own 12 yard line. Inexplicably Del Rio goes 4 down lineman, 3 LBS ... you put fucking Jon fucking Bostic to drop back into soft zone coverage against Keenan fucking Allen?

you dumb fuck Del Rio .. the chargers OC was getting matchups and targeting your LBs in coverage all fucking day .. with the game on line with your opponent at 3rd and fucking 16 at their own fucking 11 yard line ...

you put the fucking game in Jon Bostics hands to trust him to cover an acre of open fucking field against Keenan Allen and Justin Herbert.

[url]https://www.nfl.com/games/chargers-at-football-team-2021-reg-1[/url]

go to the 3:30 mark for the 3rd and 16

Dont we have a ton of hybrid safeties for THIS VERY FUCKING MOMENT?

Should have had collins, curl, maccain, everett, fuller, jackson, st juste plus the front 4 ... instead you put Holcomb and Jon fucking Bostic out there?

Fuck you Del Rio.

[quote=skinsfaninok;1290192]You are not a Dominant DE if u let a rookie kick your ass all game[/quote]

When OCs and QBs can scheme to have their first read open every time and everything for them stays on schedule .. the pass rush will never have a chance if the ball is coming out in less than 3 seconds

Teams are going to pick Del Rio apart if he doesnt adjust. Same thing last year is happening this year. We need to get better coverage and disguise looks so we can disrupt the timing of things.

just pick us apart with short to intermediate stuff all day. 1st reads always open.

Maybe you aren't, but overall the negative sentiment on here is over the top after one game. You would think we got trucked like the Packers or something. It wasn't even close to that. Yeah, lots of yards, lots of 3rd down conversions, and the offense STILL looks less than pedestrian.

But in the end, it's one game, and they lost by 4.

Maybe not a ton of positives to hold on to but surely not the "Chicken Little" talk from a handful either. I'm at a medium because I'm particularly wired in that manner, it was ONLY Week 1 (I've said it for the past 25 years that opening day is an extension of preseason, and I still hold on to that train of thought) and though we didn't particularly play well; we still was likely a Gibson fumble away from potentially winning the game.

Let's see how things go over the next three to four weeks.

Re: Week 1 - Post-game Thread
 

It's not just the legal side you have to worry about with Watson. It's the NFL suspension.

If the NFL suspends him for a year, do you still trade the house for him?

As far as Watson goes, he is coming off a great season. But can this franchise w/ all that has gone on go after a guy who has a serious fetish for massage therapists? He had like 30 of them and I guess tried to get them to beat him off? I don't think he committed a crime but that is creepy stuff. He seemed like a real classy dude. I remember him giving a paycheck up to help some families in the Texans organization- I think they were the cleaning people, just a nice thing to do and then he turns out he is a total creep. I just don't know if it is something we can or should do. But if you put him on this team then it changes everything for the franchise.

Unless there is a major change within the Texans, I doubt they will trade him. They have this crazy price for him, even though they know no one is going to pay for it given the risk this investigation is posing.

Now, if the Packers were to budge and trade Rodgers, I'd take him in a heartbeat.
