Yeah I don't get it either. That hot take idiot Colin Cowherd is salivating over them.
Can't wait for Rivers to have his "worst day ever " again |
The Chargers have always been paper tigers
just like the current Raiders teams oh yeah **** Denver too, they'e gonna be the worst team in the AFCW this season. |

Shouldn't be too surprising he's not as good without a prime Antonio Gates and Ladainian Tomlinson. Rivers is a poor man's Peyton Manning. He's an immobile pocket QB that struggles in high pressure situations. Manning always played below his own standard in high pressure/playoff situations, but he was SO ****ing good. So does Rivers, but he's less good. So often it's bubble games in the regular season. Win and you're in situations, and he'll play a shit game. Any given sunday in the regular season you better be prepared, because he can put it on you. Unless the playoffs are on the line. Then he'll toss 3 picks. |

5 games he's had 100+ yards. Only 5 games he's averaged more than 5 yards per carry. Kareem matched/topped those in 1 season. Maybe in 1973 you could call a 3.9 YPC back a 'beast', but not when they're always running against DB heavy sub packages. Gordon sucks. |

He hasn't hit the 4.0 ypc mark in a season yet. He's only a beast if you consider a sloth to be a beast. |

The Chargers are not a terrible team when you look at the talent. They appear to have most of the key parts in place to be consistently successful.
Rivers is way more than capable and can rally them - his numbers have been phenomenal for the most part. He is obviously the head of the class in the division right now. They were 6-2 after the bye and had it not been for that terrible 0-4 start, who knows what would have happend in 2017. Of their 7 losses, two were by 2 points and two were by 3 points... lost twice to KC, once to the Eagles and once to the Jaguars. Chiefs gave them their 2 worst losses. So, again... solid draft last year, good team and they've made some good moves this offseason/draft. I totally get why there's a lot of love for them. The Raiders are a mystery and I would wager a guess that many are hitting pause on KC because you have a young promising QB with only 1 start and some still question the defense. Chiefs @ Bills @ Rams 49ers Raiders That's an interesting opening 5 for them and if they open up with a loss, followed by mishaps on the road... could spell trouble vs a solid 49ers team and then the Raiders. If they come out of that with 3-4 wins - they would prove worthy of the chatter right now. |
I think their defense is hyped up right now. I question the middle linebackers, but elsewhere they seem stacked. If Perryman can stay healthy, they could have an elite defense at all positions.
The offense is good enough to put up 20-24 points a game and this isn't the arena league so that should be enough to win games. They are also the Chargers so they could easily go 4-12. |

Their OLB opposite Ingram seems like a weakness too. I'm not even sure their defense will be better than the Chiefs' honestly but I guess I would give them the edge based on the Chiefs' uncertainty at the CB position. |

Yanno how Kareem Hunt had 3 50+ yard TD's in his first 3 games? 4 plays over 50 yards in total? How many 50+ yard rushes/receptions do you think Melvin Gordon has? One. ROFL 854 touches, and he's had one play over 50 yards. Kareem Hunt had 2 in his rookie debut. A 58 yard rush and a 78 yard reception. |
Rivers is essentially Stafford at this point...a good stat QB with nothing to show for it. Someone who "might" beat you...but if you are an 8-8 or better team...probably wont.
KC has beaten them 8 times is a row....and Rivers "greatness" has averaged 14 points. |
Seriously, who would you rather have on your team.
Old Man Rivers and Beast Gordon or Mahomes and Hunt |
