My general response is this: to start a culture of winning, Harbaugh does not intend to start by losing. To win he intends to install a TEAM culture that does not depend solely on top rated individuals, rather position groups that play complementary TEAM football for each other. We have a scattering of elite football talent along with promising young athletes, an elite leader at HC and carefully selected assistants. Whatever conventional thinking says is likely is unlikely when applied to the very unconventional Jim Harbaugh. IMO this is a one of a kind situation. Harbaugh's plan for 2025 is for that to be his second Super Bowl with the Chargers. His good luck will be the product of faith, hard work, extraordinary planning and football experience. A wildcard is the absolute floor for this team. We are NOT last year's Chargers recycled. Screw a bunch of pre 2024 Chargers records. The odds makers are comfortable with promising $8,000 for $20 if we win the SB because they want your $20. We really are a long shot to be the SB winner. That said, it's a gamble, We really are going for it and Harbaugh has beaten the odds before. Get ready for some fun. You should not drink the KoolAid with alcohol......it makes for poor bets.

No wonder I don't bet. I liked your numbers better. LOL! Ya, I was feeling a little pull looking at them. Apparently they aren't very sure that we won't win the SB. Promise me 8k for my 20, it's tempting. $800 would pay for a shopping trip and a truck service. Nice I guess but hardly earth shaking.
16 -11= 5 days 'till rookies report.

I believe it's a given that STs will practice together. Harbaugh leaves no stone unturned, Ficken was the only returning unit coach and rule changes demand attention.
They will have ST practices. It's an important part of winning. The organization TBD.

Without watching or reading the interview I am fairly certain Ficken did not lay out his plans. That is what I was wondering about, the possibility of how to exploit this big change in kickoff. There must be coaches getting creative, designing plays and such. Might only work for half the season, but still.....

One guy I am interested in is DT Justin Eboigbe Alabama. If he becomes even a solid back up its a win. Drafted in the 4th round.
Last year: First-team All-SEC. Started all 14 games (63 tackles, 11.5 TFL with 7 sacks, PBU).

Run defense and "block destruction" primarily but it's early. Eboigbe is coming along. I think he'll be good.

Alabama starter and First Team All-SEC is usually nothing to sneeze at ............
