Chargers have real shot to win it all, finally
![]() Looks like the SDSPM is at it again. WOW! http://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/...hampions-acee/ It is possible the Chargers saved the best for last. Come the first Sunday in February, we might not know whether to raise a toast or cry in our beer. Maybe we’ll do both. It’s not preposterous to believe we could get the opportunity to find out. We’re three days into training camp, so this isn’t a prediction. What it is, is the best perspective that can be gleaned at this point. It’s a spectrum of possibility. It is legitimate hope, and it is prudent realism. The Chargers, in what may well be their final season in San Diego, can be a good team. A playoff team. A Super Bowl team. We’re not saying they are a good team because, well, we know better. Fool us once, shame on you. Fool us a few dozen times, shame on us. We’ve seen promise unravel, at various times, in a steaming pile of historically bad special teams, seemingly infectious injuries, ridiculous penalties, overconfidence and Marlon McCree. But, really, this Chargers team has the potential to be what no Chargers team has ever been before |

What? Not even. Not since they picked Rivers. And they've always been more of an offensive team.

All this said, this division will be much tighter a race than it has in years. The Raiders won't be absolute shit this year either. Winner won't take it by more than 2 games.

You dipshit, the chargers are bengals west. Completely ordinary. I know you think, or at least act like you think these average to above average teams are something to aspire to, but you're wrong.

No man let's get ****ing crazy. Midseason highlights set to Fog Hat's Slow Ride if we're even one game over .500. ONE CHECKDOWN AT A TIME

The Chargers were the "best team to never make the playoffs" most every other year in the late 00's. I don't know what version of amnesia people have developed. They were a pick to win the AFC almost every year.

This.
He's basically saying that the Chargers will be contenders if there are no injuries. If "ifs" and "buts" were "candies" and "nuts" the Chargers would be enormous lard asses. He glazed over the fact that there's no proven pass rush and completely ignored the lack of a decent NT or RG. He also seems to have forgotten about Gates' 4 game suspension. He's right though... If everyone stays healthy and plays a full season the Chargers will be very good. Like that's gonna happen. ![]() |
