    Chargers are the Cowboys of the AFC. Some really special players but don’t feel quite buttoned up enough to be a special team for three straight weeks and get to a Super Bowl.

    I agree… Chargers look good but  tough to read… i think the Rams will outright win next Sunday.

    heading into last year’s playoffs.. both the Bengals and Rams were the long shots to win the playoff bracket……. they both won their conferences.  Just like last year… The team that peaks in Dec and Jan will win.

    If I were putting together an NFL team right now, with an eye toward the present and future, Herbert would be my first choice for franchise QB. Yeah, even before Mahomes, Burrow, Fields, or Jackson. No one else in the league has his combo of physical potential, size, athleticism, arm strength, and smarts. If you could build the perfect QB in a lab, it would be something like this:

    Height Weight Arm length Hand span 40-yard dash 10-yard split 20-yard split 20-yard shuttle Three-cone drill Vertical jump Broad jump Wonderlic:
    6 ft 6+1⁄4 in
    (1.99 m) 236 lb
    (107 kg) 32+7⁄8 in
    (0.84 m) 10 in
    (0.25 m) 4.68 s 1.62 s 2.75 s 4.46 s 7.06 s 36.0 in(0.91 m) 10 ft 3 in (3.12 m)
    39
    All values from NFL Combine[47][48]

    He’s just 24.

    Seems like the Chargers may be blowing a once in a generation chance. They’re not maximizing what they drafted, at least to this early point in his career. They have not given him the weapons he needs, etc.  I’d bet McVay, OTOH, would win several Super Bowls with Herbert at the helm.

    Chargers are 9-6. They’re 21st in defensive points allowed, 19th in defensive yards, 26th in yards rushing allowed, 13th in offensive points, 11th in offensive yards, 31st in rushing yards and rushing yards per attempt. They’re also 20th in sacks allowed per game.

    Chargers beat the Broncos in overtime by 3 points, 19-16.

    Denver has been awful on offense. But on defense, they are 7th in points and 5th in yards.
