“CHARGERS–WHO ARE THESE GUYS”
=======
It was awful-but we have seen that before.
It was predictable and I told you it was coming.
It is baffling for all they’ve accomplished they are still troubled.
It is a team with question marks.
The Chargers..nowhere where they could be-should be-probably won’t be.
It was an awful pounding they took at the hands of the Jacksonville Jaguars.
it was terrible, the beating Justin Herbert had to take on Sunday.
It was miserable, the play of whomever they dragged off the street to play in OL.
It was a (35-6) battering that nearly cost them their quarterback.
it was so horrific, that the Chargers had to bench both their starting LT-RG.
The heavy duty running back, Kimani Vidal, got nicked up.
There were no big plays to any of the big play receivers we have seen this year
The defense, which has been prone to getting gashed in the run, got maimed.
Jim Harbaugh constantly harps about toughness, tough men, big time plays, and yet we see this keep happening again, the Bolts get mugged.
They lost to a highly erratic quarterback Trevor Lawrence, playing without his top 3-wide receivers. A team that has underachieved on offense, ran up a (149-to-5Y) advantage in the 3rd quarter alone.
When they were done, the Jaguars had scoring drives of 11-14 and 16 plays and the Chargers were outgained (345-135). Think about that, a Justin Herbert offense had (135-yards) in offense.
And Herbert was plastered with a pancake sack that I thought led him to a concussion tent meeting. He hardly played after that hit. As I have said for weeks in a row, an injury waiting to happen.
So bad, the Chargers benched left tackle Trevor Penning and right guard Mekhi Becton. Add in another poor game by RT-Trey Pipkens;.
And the Chargers seemed to have no answers for a wide variety of motion formations and misdirection plays that Liam Coen kept callling all day. That had to be on tape and yet the Jess Minter defense could not stop it-handle it. Beat every which way.
A team in trouble for sure.
For all the Shakespearean quotes from Harbaugh, he never has answers or words worth listening to when they lose this bad.
And just remember, last year, they lost 7-games to the more physical teams on the schedule. And this Jacksonville game, and this end result, sure looked and felt like early season losses to Washington, the Giants and what should have been a loss to a bad Miami team.
The Jaguars game should not have been a trap game. it turned into a crap game. The Bolts crawl to the bye week in need of rest-health and in search of toughness. Oh by the way, still to come, they have road games at Denver-at Kansas City, plus the Eagles and vs the Dak Prescott led Cowboys offense in Dallas. How do they survive all this?.
Who are the Chargers? Not what we thought they were. Not healthy, not tough enough, and surely still not able to help their battered star quarterback.
Awful Sunday. Awful set of problems. Don’t know who they really are, even if their coach wants to quote Chaucer, Churchill or JFK.
