The Chargers are preseason champs once again!

Relevant portion:

Quote:

Los Angeles Chargers (12-4): If they can finally stave off the injury bug — Bosa, TE Hunter Henry and LB Denzel Perryman have their fingers crossed — the Bolts have as much talent as any team, particularly at the skill positions. They're also battle-tested — let's be honest, they basically play in front of a hostile crowd every week — capable of winning in any environment, to include a Super Bowl audience in South Florida on Feb. 2. (And wouldn't it be kinda nice to see Philip Rivers join 2004 draft mates Eli Manning and Ben Roethlisberger on the championship dais?)

Kansas City Chiefs (11-5): Will an overhauled defense jell quickly? Can league MVP Patrick Mahomes possibly approach the mind-boggling production he managed in his first year as a starter? Are the off-field distractions at an end with the NFL choosing not to suspend WR Tyreek Hill? Lots of questions, though K.C. is equipped to provide correct answers between the lines. Early tests as AFC West champs open with three of four on the road.
He also has the Colts beating the Chiefs in the wild card round.

If you ask me, this Nate Davis guy is a real dipshit dumbass!!!!!!

Oh, we're gonna do this again? Ok.

I’ve honestly never seen a team own another in their division like we do the Chargers and STILL get disrespected by the national media every single year.

It would not be preseason without some idiot proclaiming the Chargers division champs.

3 years in a row now they have picked wrong about the Chiefs- and looks like it will be 4 in row. Chiefs have beat the Charges 9 out of 10 and the NFL had to gift them that win.


Look out- the Chargers are battle-tested this year!!! LOL

The only thing different for the Rivers this year over last- is he probably has another kid.

phyliss and his sister syphilis

Rivers looked like the physical cliff is right there as it got later and later last year.

They are definitely stacked at the skill spots, but if he falls off, its probably a 10 win team max.

1. Pretty sure it's "gel," not "jell"

2. "Are the off-field distractions at an end with the NFL choosing not to suspend WR Tyreek Hill?" No more than any other team's propensity to have off-field distractions, including the golden boy Patriots who CONSTANTLY deal with crap like that (deflated footballs... Tom Brady hates Belichick because that's what his Rasputin health guru told him to do... their #1 WR gets busted for PEDs...)

3. "Lots of questions..." You only asked 3 questions. Is that more questions than the Chargers have? How about, "Can Anthony Lynn outcoach his way out of a wet paper bag?" "Can the Chargers finally take all this supposed talent they have surrounding them and make it work for themselves?" "When compared to the offensive skill positions of the Chiefs, can Rivers overcome the deficiency of high-powered weapons he has, especially at TE?"

4. The Chiefs did 3 of the first 4 on the road last year, too. How'd that turn out for them, again? If I remember, that was also supposed to be a rough start, and their playoff hopes depended on them recovering from that difficult 1-3 start they'd be facing!

For reference, last years "projections"

Lmao this mother****er really wants the Chargers to be a thing huh

Halfcan 07-22-2019 10:03 AM

Chargers have not won the Division since 2009. 10 years!!!

The Chargers have been picked to win the Division 10 years in a row. 10 Years!!

It will be at least another 10 years until they win the Division again.

Jerm 07-22-2019 10:08 AM

For some reason NFL media wants the Chargers to be a thing soooooo bad...it's hilarious.

Barring catastrophic injuries the Chiefs will win 12 games in their sleep, **** these projections.

The Faders last won the Divison in 2002. That year, the Faders Lost Super Bowl XXXVII (vs. Buccaneers) 21–48

To put that into some perspective- the Seahawks last won the Division in 1999.

So minus 4 Seasons, the Faders have not won the Division in as long as the Seahawks.

The Seahawks left the Division in 2002.
