As of now, I think Easton Stick is still the
#Chargers
QB2.
But with back to back bad games, Stick has let the door creak open on potential conversations about acquiring another QB2 candidate prior to the season kicking off.
Full BB episode here:
I’m learning more and more about Chargers fans every day on this app.
Small sample size to work with, but definitely learning more.
I get it though, offseason is everything for you because you have to deal with Daddy Mahomes twice a year for the foreseeable future.
I'll remember
#81
for a lot of things: he was an exemplary Charger who fought his ass off all the time and played through as much as his body would let him.
No better encapsulation of him than a Thursday night in December 2018 we all shared.💙
Thank you, Mike Williams.
Breaking: Strength coach Ben Herbert joining HC Jim Harbaugh and DC Jesse Minter with the Los Angeles Chargers.
He informed the team in a morning lift session, per Rivals.
New Chargers HC Jim Harbaugh on the journey ahead:
"The only job you start at the top is digging a hole, so we know we've got to earn our way. Be better today than yesterday. Be better tomorrow than today. My priorities are faith, family and football, and we are going to attack

Antonio Gates Chargers' HOF induction as well....please do not embarass in this specific game🙏
The
#Rams
are hiring Giff Smith as their defensive line coach/run game coordinator, per source.
A longtime respected assistant, Smith finished last season as the
#Chargers
’ interim coach. Several teams were trying to hire him, but Sean McVay convinced him to stay in L.A.
Last thing I want to say today: Prayers for Mike Williams🙏
In my seven years of covering the Chargers, he's been one of my favorite players to watch. Through the good years and bad, he's been making big plays while battling injuries. Great guy on and off the field.
All love💙

Doug Pederson showed you why he's a Super Bowl winning coach. He made adjustments. He led his QB back methodically, play by play.
Brandon Staley showed you why he's a snake oil salesman who can't adjust when it matters for shit.
There is no coming back from this.
Justin Herbert on Quentin Johnston's drop: "I think Q is a fantastic receiver...I could've given him a better ball. It's not just on him, it's on me too."
"He's not gonna let this last one affect his next one."

GM Tom Telesco as their new GM. A surprise!
Telesco built one of the NFL’s best rosters over a decade with the rival Chargers. Now, he’s expected to stay in the division.
Chargers EDGE Joey Bosa on taking pay cut: "It was an easy decision."
on Harbaugh effect: "It's definitely a factor, knowing we're bringing in the final piece...My history here, the way things are trending-I wanted to be here for this moment."
Brandon Staley's defense has given up 300 yards in the first half after he apparently spent the whole offseason thinking about the Jags game everyday.
Pathetic.
Today on Fun Chargers Stats:
Since 2010: teams with 275+ passing yards and no turnovers are 382-96-2. That's a win percentage of 80%.
With the loss to the Titans today, the Chargers are one of the 96.

2. EDGE Joey Bosa 83.6
3. DT Otito Ogbonnia 82.9

5. DT Morgan Fox 82.0
Joe Hortiz on QJ via Up and Adams: "Quentin was a player we liked in Baltimore as well last year. When he was coming out of college, he was an elite size/speed athlete. And you saw some rawness to his game, but as big as he is, 6'3", you watch him drop his weight, getting in and
Jesse Minter is a huge get for the Chargers and probably is a guy who we'll be talking about for HC vacancies sooner rather than later.
Michigan's got a stingy, suffocating defense and he's an awesome developer of talent. Wouldn't mind some UM defense draft picks either!
4-7. No playoffs. Disastrous offensive performance. A great Mack game wasted. Simply an undefendable 12 week stretch for a team that cannot play complementary football.
The Chargers brand of football is bland, uninspired, and lifeless outside of a handful of players.
Reunion: Three-time Pro Bowl RB Ezekiel Elliott agreed to terms with the
#Cowboys
pending physical, sources tell me and

.
With Tony Pollard gone and Elliott coming off a strong finish to his lone season in New England, it’s time to Feed Zeke again in Dallas.
Chargers EDGE Joey Bosa on Harbaugh: "It feels like coach is leading the team the way it should be led...the message is being sent from the top and it's not being mixed up moving down the ladder."
"The competitiveness that's been going on over the last few weeks has been great."
The Chargers offense puts up 38 points and it doesn't matter because the defense allowed 41. It's their fourth game allowing 475+ yards this season.
All the Brandon Staley talk of needing to play complementary football every week for something like this to happen in your house.
Chargers TE Hayden Hurst on Ben Herbert's baseline test: "I haven't had that in the NFL yet. A staff that wants to fix you, see your deficiencies...They're breaking it down to make sure the soft tissue stuff doesn't happen."
Daniel Popper: "Is Rashawn Slater your left tackle?"
Jim Harbaugh: "To be determined."
Harbaugh: "We're gonna play the best five that we have on the team."
Chargers HC Jim Harbaugh on improving Justin Herbert's game: "The thing that's hitting me is enormous talent. I'm waking up real early in the morning these days like "I gotta bring it." I gotta bring my A game. I gotta get a coaching staff hired that's worthy of coaching Justin,
This is a truly disgusting infraction and I think Jim Harbaugh should be punished with a 5 year contract to coach the Chargers. Only way he learns his lesson tbh.
The NCAA is charging Michigan's Jim Harbaugh with a Level I violation for allegedly providing misleading information in an investigation into recruiting infractions during the COVID-19 dead period, a source confirms to The Athletic.

. With questions about his reliability, the decision was made to have him stay home, get through the bye and return in a better place.
Former Chargers QB Coach Shane Day will return to LA under Jim Harbaugh's staff in the same role, per Mike Garafolo.
Day worked with Justin Herbert under Brandon Staley and Joe Lombardi for two seasons prior to Kellen Moore's hiring. Seems to be a significant relationship.
Honest to God, fuck Jon Stewart.
President Zelenskyy has a law degree. His father was a professor and his mother was an engineer.
Jon Stewart has an unfunny one-note schtick that hit its expiration date in 2005. And he was never even in Shecky Greene's league.
Chargers WR Josh Palmer calls the new coaching staff's attention to detail as a "glaring" difference compared to any other team he's been on, college or pro.
Chargers HC Jim Harbaugh on CBS: "There's no Lombardi Trophy in college football...I want to take a crack at that and there's no better place to do it than with the Los Angeles Chargers."
this is gonna happen on a bullshit overtime game winner against the Chargers to Travis Kelce where all 11 defenders on the field simultaneously forget how to tackle
