    Why would Herbert do this? 🤷

    Yes, he should be traded to the Bears - you can have all our 2024 draft picks and Justin Fields.

    Chargers have scored more points than the chiefs this year. Offense is fine (other than when they blow the protection in the 2-minute drill & let a free rusher tee off on Herbert at the end of each game)

    Well we don’t, that’s the team’s job.

    Failing to score on a 2 min drill against the Ravens is pretty bad though. That, and if you spend basically the entire game trailing, any decent QB is going to run up his stats from optimal aggressive pass-heavy playcalling.

    I want to see any current WB do better with this cursed franchise. How about this, the team as available is bad.

    Receiving room had three playmakers, down to one some practice squad players and a potential 1st round bust. Does Williams drop that game winner against GB I doubt it.

    O-Line a strength of the team in the preseason is a shell without competent Center play. Linsey is probably retiring due to a heart condition. Right side is playing awful and can’t adjust, can Herbert set the blocking better, yeah but that wasn’t a need with Linsey.

    RB room is barren. Austin is a shell of himself following the injury. Spiller and Kelley are non-factors with little upside at this point. Line does them no favors with horrible run blocking.

    TE is the relative strength which should tell you something. Everett has been a nice FA signing and Parham is a good contested space weapon. Both have had injuries and missed time.
