So far Vegas has this game at pick-um odds The two defenses and the kicking game will decide this matchup. It was a tough matchup for the chargers to draw washington right out of the gate. If the charger defense doesn’t play well I don’t think they can win because we know the WFT defense is one of the best in the NFL and even with staley, I’m not certain the chargers are anywhere near that level yet, I guess we’ll see what happens. Hopefully the STs unit will step up and the defense will make life hard for fitzmagic. washington is going to come out and just try to physically intimidate the chargers. It’ll be interesting to see how staley counters that.

The only way we put up 30 on washington is if our defense scores a couple of times, I love the enthusiasm but gotta be realistic.

The truth is that this is a game between two mediocre teams from last year, both taking measures to improve. The fact that Vegas has the odds at even reflects this. The Chargers can easily win this game and just as easily lose it. To me the ex-factor even more than home field is preparation. Will Staley’s team execute or stumble in the aftermath a not playing the starters at all during preseason.

Going with Fitzpatrick now.

Going with Fitzpatrick now. I get that. The have the most talented front 7 in the NFL but they are far from a complete team. The Chargers would be a road dog to at least half the teams in the NFL this week. They are not against WFT. Fitzpatrick is Fitzpatrick. Part Fitzmagic part journeyman playing for his 8th team. Think about that for a second. They dude has played for 25% of the teams in the league. That might be a record. Just trying to keep things in perspective. The chicken littles are already in midseason form.

Washington gave up 30+ points on 6 occasions last season including a loss to the Detroit Lions. I'm guessing that there is possibly more that one single way. Clearly around here "realistic" is in the eye of the beholder.

The chicken littles are already in midseason form. It's a tough game, but you are correct---completely winnable. Now let's team dive into the game, as only a former addicted gambler can. Home field advantage is roughly 3 points. Our game is a pick em. The projection is that we are a playoff team this year. I believe the most important position in all of sports is the QB. So they are giving Herbert an edge over Fitzypoo. There is no discussion that our starting skill positions on offense are better than Washington's. I believe these are the differences in point spread. Freak Super Secret: Home field advantage is a term against road weary teams. It is the first game, so travel tired should not be a factor--no where NEAR a factor of say 3 road games in a row. For somebody that you called a useless poster, I hope my posts helps to enlighten.
