  1. ...and Dabol. He didn't overthink things. Ground and pound and quality passing calls.
  2. The Chargers appear to be a sinking ship right now, I would inquire about one of the best route runners in Keenan Allen. But perhaps a better and cheaper option would be to offer maybe a third for Mike Williams whose still on his rookie deal.
  3. Isn’t Big Dingus the one constantly trashing Allen while loving on Mayfield? Conspicuously quiet tonight!
  4. Who's the current deep threat on this team outside of John Brown? Defenses are putting a safety over the top on Brown. In turn, Brown is doing a lot of his damage in the mid range game. The one time Brown got open deep, Allen over threw him. The other times that I can recollect, there has been a safety there for help resulting in an pass break-up or INT. Perhaps with the addition of Duke, Allen can start to throw some back shoulder throws along the sideline. And when Foster comes back, perhaps we can get some safety relief giving either him or Brown some one on one opportunities.
  5. Here's my theory on the lack of long ball? Right now, who's the deep threat outside of John Brown? Maybe Duke now, but really nobody up to this point. Therefore, defenses put a high safety over the top of Brown. When Allen has gone deep to Brown (outside the one he overthrew Brown), there has been a high safety who has broken up the pass or intercepted it. Hopefully with Duke (who can high point the ball) and the return of Foster, we can get the safety to commit to one side or the other and get some one on one matchups. Who remembers the Akili Smith and Carl Pickens show in Cincinnati? Smith would just air bomb a throw high and far and let Pickens locate it and run under it. I think this could be an option for Duke who can probably out muscle DBs and high point the ball. Especially if he can get one on one coverage.
  6. too close to overturn IMO. I think his heal was off the ground past the LOS when he released.
  7. Looked like a good play by the DB, just got his hand in there.
