It's going to be interesting when the Chargers need to take that "next step" and they don't have any skill players. In the playoffs, "solid" just doesn't get it done.
As usual, it’ll just depend on them nailing their picks.
Lions took a RT early and they’re doing just fine. [Reply]

The Lions also had multiple years of high picks. The Chargers are going to have to really nail their drafting because Harbaugh is going to have them picking in the 20's pretty consistently. [Reply]
McConkey is probably not playing. McConkey and Dobbins are enormous losses for them
From @GMFB: #Cowboys QB Dak Prescott throws coach Mike McCarthy his support; #Steelers get pass-rusher Alex Highsmith back this week; #Chargers WR Ladd McConkey's status is in doubt for Sunday with an AC joint sprain in his shoulder and a knee sprain. pic.twitter.com/2pLe1dlcpu

They can find skill players easier than they can find a T like that. Plus Harbaugh wants to play that way. [Reply]

Yeah, and the Chargers haven’t really hit on skill position players recently either outside of Mcconkey. [Reply]

We're not gonna get much traction against those Tackles and Herbert's been doing a really good job of running up the chute when it's available anyway.
So I'd have Omenihu and Jones in the middle a lot this week and focus on gap discipline. Attack the middle of that OL and make things uncomfortable for Herbert. Use Karlaftis and Uche at DE.
I mean, we won't do ANY of that. Because our line rotations are bizarre.

But we should.
I bet they do actually.
Chris likes to find Waldo these days and against LAC that is NOT on the edges. [Reply]
Also expecting further breakout from Worthy as long as Humphries provides a competent enough baseline of play that simmers Mahomes the fuck down a bit. [Reply]

Are we really gonna let Nazeeh and J. Williams go full time outside?
At least with Conner on the field you get SOME upside plays. But the whole situation speaks to how valuable Jaylen was. It went above what he was producing on the field. He and McDuffie, much like Sneed and McDuffie, allowed the rest of the secondary to do what only they did best. [Reply]
