So with ten games left, what will be the record over those ten games? 6-4.....with a final record of 10-7...and out of the PO's. I think this is a good guess. I'm not going much different with 9-8 (5-5 after the bye) and a dramatic shakeup next year.

I still believe improvement is going to happen. 12-5. Wildcard.

You guys are pretty optimistic. I think 5-5 the rest of the way is generous. This team just has not shown me it can do more than squeak out wins with lucky bounces. Luck can not be relied on and any time we face a tenured coach we get demolished.
MY hope is for 7-3 and a wildcard birth. My fractured charger heart is trying to be more realistic and say 4-6 on the back end with a complete coaching blowout at the end. We have not been able to stay healthy for a while now. And we are not drafting good enough to make up for it.

Last season we were relatively healthy. It was an aberration that tricked TT and Staley into believing it would be the norm. TT should have known better. Staley probably thought it was something he’d done and wouldn’t change. Welcome to the chargers Brandon

Mt guess is that Herbert will be closer to normal (elite) physically and sharper mentally while the rest of the team gets used to who they are as a unit - OL-DL-DB as play as a unit.

No plays with his legs to speak of, early slides in scrambles, and we've really missed having the qb sneak in our playbook. I'm surprised he made the td saving tackle last week. And would not be surprised at all if he got an ear full for it. Tldr; would have been cool to see this team's full potential at least once this season...

If they wouldn’t have gone hurry up against KC with 1st and goal at the 3 and taken the time to get that series right and go up up 24-17 instead of falling behind 24-17…..

If Marlon Mccree takes a knee, or If LT doesn't spin for extra yards against the Colts, If Staley punts or kicks a field goal a few times last season?
Yup I have been turned from Positive Paul to negative Nancy.
After the bye i want to see us:
1. Stop giving up huge game breaking runs.
2. Get after the QB.
2. Throw the ball down the field
3. Run the ball efficiently.
My Guess is the chargers want the same thing.

We're 9th in the league in rushing, not too bad. Agree with everything else though.

I’m not sure if that’s an unsorted list or if I’m missing something but I don’t see the Chargers being 9th best.

It’s in our best interest if the Chargers continue to lose. One step closer to a better coach, otherwise it’s more of the same.
