Great writer. RIP Z.

It's hard not to keep appreciating something this historic. We most likely will never live to see something this putrid again in the history of football. I don't have a problem with 2-3 threads a day noting the various ways in which this offense is historically bad.

When you look at those numbers in the context of the rest of the league, it is amazing that we have managed to win a single game, let alone two.

At this point, a breakout game for Nathan would look like 160 yards 1 TD and 2 Ints (but only one pick six)

I feel the same way. At least the potential of a Peterman train wreck gives me some incentive to watch this week. And there's that very faint glimmer of hope that he somehow turns it around and puts together a solid 4 quarters that he can be proud of some day when he talks to his kids about his stint in the NFL.

This is actually a good point. He has faced a bit of a murderers row and doesn't have any weapons to utilize. He's looked ok in limited minutes against mediocre-to-crap defenses (New Orleans, Indy, etc.).

I agree. Zay was one of the only bright spots on O.

Nice play Benjamin. Didn't have a problem with that block either after the cheap stuff New England's pulled in the past.

I don't know how anyone could draw much of a conclusion on Daboll, good or bad, based on the talent level on the offensive side of the ball. We have like one good playmaker (who happens to be a 30yr old RB) and one serviceable offensive lineman and that's it. We have the worst group of quarterbacks in the league. Our best receiver would be a #3 on most teams and after him I'm not sure if we have another receiver who would be active on Sundays for 75% of the teams in the league. If there ever was someone set up to fail, it's Daboll.

Same thing happened to my brother-in-law. Got black out drunk and tried to find his way back to his friend's pad. Ended up at the elderly neighbors and woke up in the morning on her couch. Lol.

Call me a glutton for punishment, but since we are going to lose anyway, it's kind of fun to watch the worst quarterback in NFL history do his thing. It's not like watching your regular boring bad quarterback do his thing. The mere fact that every single snap brings the distinct possibility of a pick six adds some excitement.

Houston Astros fans in 2013.

Hernandez committed a horrible act. There is no denying that. Objectively, he was a bad dude. But I don't understand why people are so adverse to acknowledging that he was basically mentally ill or suffering from an extreme personality disorder for a variety of reasons (abuse, CTE, drug use?). He was also at the prime age for the onset of mental illness. And it's not about making him the victim or excusing the behavior, it's more about acknowledging that there are lots of people out there that have had negative experiences that potentially prime them for antisocial behavior in adulthood. We need to find these people and get them the treatment they need before they harm themselves or others.

I don't believe it's some sort of grand religious conspiracy. If that were the case, then why draft Allen - who courted controversy by tweeting offensive rap lyrics? I haven't heard anything about Allen being overly Christian or anything. Also, based on their preseason performances and the salary situations, I too would have kept Peterman and shipped off McCarron. I don't have a problem with it. Peterman appeared to have progressed in the offseason and looked ready to take the next step. Yes, he was atrocious against the Chargers and shaky against the Jags in tough spots, but he otherwise looked at least serviceable in his other two outings vs the Saints and Colts. My only complaint is that they didn't move quicker to fill the backup role once Peterman showed in week one that he was incapable of providing anything positive during a real game. Things looked dire after that first week and they should have immediately brought in a guy like Anderson as a steadying influence.

lol...i'd kind of like to see Peterboy get another shot. guess i'm a sadomasochist.

Allen. And I can't believe this question is even being asked. Do our fans have any clue who Derek Anderson is? https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/200910110buf.htm

Getting back to the OP, I am finally coming to grips that what you are seeing on this board is one of the following: 1) A board littered with at least a double digit number of trolls (who are doing a fine job btw); 2) A board with a majority pre-teen membership; or 3) A board littered with mouth breathing imbeciles.

Locker is a fair comparison right now. Question is whether Allen can develop quick enough to succeed in the league. He's got another year from me before I write him off.

Please go back and watch the video of Tyrod's performances last year against the Saints, Jags and others. Our passing game has been in the stone ages since about week 8 of 2011.

Deep breath, people. 5 games. 5 games.

Peterman couldn't carry Mathison's jock based on those highlights.

Peterman probably could have been a serviceable backup if the Chargers game hadn't happened. I think it ruined him forever.

I was under the assumption that Jacksonville couldn't fill it's stadium, but I just looked at their attendance numbers for the past few years and they've been solid. I could understand how a move to London could increase the overall value of the franchise, but how does playing a few games a year there as he Jacksonville Jaguars really benefit Khan? If the NFL wants a team in London, then do a divisional realignment and send the Chargers there. They're hated in both Los Angeles and San Diego now and have zero fanbase outside of the fans coming to support their opponents. They're a quality team and they can't even fill a 20,000 seat soccer stadium. London Chargers join the East, Dolphins move to the AFC South and Houston/Indy can slot into the AFC West.

Anyone who is not on board with the OP is a moron in my book. A project QB from a small school with 4 games under his belt with a possibly historically bad group of o-linemen and receivers. He's looked about as good as could be expected given the circumstances. I assume we'll upgrade the offense in the offseason so we should start to see some real progression on his part by midseason in 2019. If not, then I'll probably start to question. But as it stands now, I'm planning on keeping my mouth shut regarding any final conclusion on Allen for the next two years.

No. I think we were destined to lose four straight super bowls and would have found a way to lose the 17-3 lead.
