Every year we have to hear this is the year the Chargers take the division and go to the SB. Lots of "experts" thought the Chargers would be in the playoffs this year.

Mahomes is not another Wilson.
Russell might have the worst OL in the league. And he has absolute crap for offensive playcalling. He has a defensive minded head coach who has no clue how to help Wilson on the offensive side of the ball. [Reply]

That roster with minimal turnover won 12 games last year you fucking mouth breather.
The biggest difference from last year to this year are injuries and they lost a lot of close games while they won a lot in 2018. Their defensive roster alone makes them playoff caliber with even an average offense.

It has become a running joke around here.
Ryan Clark thought they'd make the playoffs. That they'd win the division, IIRC. I think Adam Schefter did as well. But talking heads have to,make wild predictions at the beginning of every season. [Reply]

No OL, no running game, two weapons, a defense shot through with holes . . . I was surprised they made the playoffs. A credit to Wilson that they put themselves in the hunt. [Reply]

That's a strange comment. They had a ton of close losses this season. If you flip the one-possession wins or losses for each team, the Chargers end up with one of the best records in the league. [Reply]

I have seen that talk in quite a few sites but theirs seems to be even more prevalent with the “system QB” stuff. Which is ironic given their QB. It seemed a good chunk of them wanted to face the Chiefs because of this and the general idea that the Chiefs are finesse. I’m also guessing that with the Titans being a running team like them that they just assume they are tougher to stop than the Chiefs would have been because Mahomes is a lot of scheme to them that mostly benefits from play calling.
What’s really funny from almost all fans was that the Titans had a good defense to slow down the Chiefs because they beat the Ravens and Patriots but once they started getting torched the narrative changed to the Titans defense sucks, not the Chiefs offense is just too good. [Reply]
