Here it is, y'all: the biggest game of the year. Are these Chargers different than those of old, or are they the same team that plays down to their opponent's level and ends up losing games they should win. If I had to bet, I'd say they're a different team.
Playing the Jaguars today should result in a blowout, but instead of focusing on the score, here are a few things I'd like to see:
1) Donald Brown increase his YPC. I want to see if he's capable of controlling the run game against a weak D.
2) Our D Line finish some sacks. We've gotten to the QB a lot (Freeney), but let's finish some of those spin moves by taking down Bortles.
3) Our secondary force an INT. Wright, Flowers, Verrett; anyone will do.
4) No field goals; let's try and end drives with TOUCHDOWNS, not just 3 points. We've been pretty good this year in the redzone, but there's always room for improvement.
Anyway, this should be a fun game. Come in mentally prepared, and we should come out with that nice W.

I hope the Chargers just come in and take care of business. It will be a good test for many backups with all the injuries. I heard on sportscenter today that Ohrnberger is out too....not good. The one thing this team REALLY cannot afford is for Rivers to have protection or snap problems.
Branden Oliver should see a bit of time too.
Reich speaks very highly of Chris Watt though, so that's good.

Man that third center is having some serious issues. Some nice td catches so far from Royal. I went to this bar in Austin that is a Chargers fan bar and it was nuts. There were 50-60 people decked out in everything going crazy. It was pretty cool. I've never lived anywhere else where I found a group of Chargers fans at a bar that big.

At least Branden Oliver got some game experience and looked pretty good.

Chargers O line played awful. Rivers should be scared for his life next week against Mohammad Wilkerson and Sheldon Richardson.
I expect our running game to be worse next week.
Rhinehart is awful, making me miss Clary.
Rivers played fantastic. Defense played awesome in the 2nd half, not just the INTs but they were super quick to the ball.
Keenan Allen had one of the greatest games that a Chargers WR has had in recent years. Felt like he caught everythin thrown at him.
Flowers is a beast and I'm so glad we got him.
Pass rush was good. Tackling could improve, Bortles was running quite well through some tackles.
Our D should eat Geno alive next week though if it keeps playing the way it has the past 4 Sundays.
Go Bolts!
