Yep. It is like the Chargers oline in the other game. When you have 3 first round picks invested you can't be a big reason you lose.

Part of stopping Henry and Lamar running all over you is on your offense too. The Bills offense would have to score early and often to get Baltimore out of their game script.

Is this the last Al and Kirb borefest of the season?

Put Fields in. Let him run. Russ throwing 5 yard outs or downfield prayers isn't it.

Yea. Although Harbaugh is never gonna run a modern NFL offense.

It is. But that is the market. There are only 4 or 5 QBs that deserve top money but the market doesn't work that way and no one team can change it themselves. The Chargers could certainly help him more by giving him at least one credible outside receiver. The Texans played defense tonight in a way that "you can't beat us outside, McConkey can have his catches in the middle of the field and we will rally and tackle, that doesn't beat us." Of course they missed once with a bad angle and McConkey made them pay but otherwise the plan worked to the letter. I said it about the Bills pre Cooper, I say it about the Chargers now... you can't win in this league on offense if you can't threaten dow the football field on the outside.

I mean he is an issue in the sense that the QB market is an issue. So you have to pay top money from sub optimal production and that may legitmately be the reason the talent around him isn't it (although missing with the Johnson pick is part of that too). But he is still a good Quarterback. He just isn't a great one who elevates what is around him. He sucked tonight but if I was writing a list of the Chargers' problems he'd still be a fair way down it.

The issue for the Chargers going forward is their defensive stars - Bosa, Mack and James are old. If they drop off this O needs a lot of work to be able to pick up the slack.

Quinten Johnston sucks.

It was an optical illusion.

I disagree. That is still the drag from the infield touch. His foot was up once it was outside the field. Bad overturn.

Their point was if you kick rather than sneak on 4th all you do is make it 2TDs plus 2 pointers. You don't make it a 3 score game. Therefore possession is worth more.

Replay assist is drunk

I think he got it. But if he didn't you gotta sneak for it.

Yea you can't lose up front this bad in a playoff game when you have three 1st round picks on that OL. There are. Both tackles and Zion Johnson.

No idea. Nutty.

Live ball.

Rookie safety takes the wrong approach angle. Great play by McConkey.

I think it is a bit of all of it. Herbert has shrunk, the weapons are poor and you can't lose up front when you have three first round picks on your OL.

Might wanna block Will Anderson lads.

Oh I am glad they stopped that for 3 seconds.

Jim better go back to college. Big boy football in the NFL.

He is statistically bad in the 3rd Quarter throughout his career. The classic Herbert game is getting too far down in the 3rd and falling just short of a heroic comeback in the 4th.

Never stepped into that at all. Footwork is what made it sail. Mechanics are collapsing.

I think that might do it
