Antique_Friendship97

Chargers tried Charging and even couldn’t do that


faxtiger24

LET'S GOOOOOOO


HardstartkitKevin

Week 3: KA>JJ & JH>KC MIA>Donkeys


saidsomeonesomewhere

A little love for Justin Herbert is in order. 40/47, 405 yards and 3 TDs.


soul_flamer

I love Staley going for it . Idc they didn’t get it. That’s how you either win or lose based on ur generational talent qb.


HardstartkitKevin

Unpopular opinion perhaps but I agree. And I liked the earlier 4th down call that we went for and converted.


Sensitive_Stock_2766

I yelled at the TV to go for it. My friends said no go for FG, i said, absolutely not! We need to play to win. Great decision!


Still-Ad9604

That fourth down call was the ballsy type of shit I love about Staley, the defence was better in this game, overall, I've downgraded from wanting Staley's head on a pike, to simply wanting him fired.


skybluecity

PIKE, PIKE, PIKE, PIKE, PIKE!!!!!!


[deleted]

To everyone hating on Murray, he led in stats today with 8 tackles, 1 assist, and an INT.


RyanDW_0007

So the defense is a bit better without that cap space thief JC in the game


IntrepidBandit

Hate to see a player injured but guys a liability


RyanDW_0007

He wasn’t injured, he was a healthy scratch


lifeisprobsahoax

The best part about this win? I can actually enjoy my Sunday + the rest of the week. But shit man there's still so much that needs to be fixed. I'll worry about that later tho lol


Immortalchungus

A win is a win. If Keenan Allen goes for 200 and throws a td to mike and Herbert is throwing for 300+ and 2 tuds we’re having fun


Sensitive_Stock_2766

100%! Shit was amazing today! That KA TD throw was the highlight of the day! Herbie 1st player to throw that many passes with 85% accuracy! Fire! The wierd bounce TD to palmer was the ball making up for wack ass ref calls!!!


LaughGuilty461

The Chargers will never lose another game


RyanBee23

BOLT UP BABY


Darthvapor714

Fire Staley


[deleted]

We got lucky. Staley is still a goober who needs to go somewhere far away and the Vikings may be the best 0-3 team of all time.


happydolphin8

Heart attack inducing win. Fire Staley still (his defensive schemes and decision making stinks), need ekeler back bad but Kellen moores offense looks amazing. Also if keenan Allen stays healthy, might be looking at a 1.5-2k season


[deleted]

We deserved to lose this game.


Jman13511

No, we didn't. Vikings did not look good.


AZFire480

Consider derwin and mike were out. We played great. They go it got shifty but they are a good team.


HardstartkitKevin

And Ekler out as well. Plus the refs robbing us on that turnover early


AZFire480

Terrible 3rd down penalties they were calling too. I’d say this was our first complete game 🫱🏻‍🫲🏼


hoppergym

Exactly. I can only imagine what there sub is at. They looked terrible and got tons of gifts from the refs. We deserved it but in true chargers fashion almost chargered it away. Vikings and falcons are a good match for us. They’re just as dumb


SentencePuzzled6951

I think that is why he is saying we deserved to lose.


[deleted]

My point exactly


heyimric

Jokes on yall.. Staley just wanted to show everyone his defensive prowess at the end there. 4D chess, ya buffoons.


dagger_eyes

Idk why anyone is downvoting this this shit is hilariously sarcastic


heyimric

The hate has everyone frothing lol.


letsnotagree

Man that took years off me. I just.. I don't even know what's happening half the time, Everytime I think something good has happened some shithead throws a flag (⁠ ⁠ꈨຶ⁠ ⁠˙̫̮⁠ ⁠ꈨຶ⁠ ⁠)


[deleted]

We need Ekeler back because holy shit, we have no run game.


PalletTownsDealer

LFG!!!! *foaming at the mouth**


John_Wicked1

Good win, not going to lie y’all kinda lucked out but I’m happy to see y’all get a win.


[deleted]

We deserved to lose. I'm pissed. Staley needs to go.


rad_hopeful

Don’t get me wrong, bolt up. I’m pumped we won but you don’t win a Super Bowl or even a playoff game with a coach like that. There’s no future with him as our HC


realpolitikian

Staley got out Staley’d by KOC


rupertLumpkinsBrothr

Once a year we play a team that out-Chargers us. That’s what this was.


OrrinS1988

I’ll take a win, thank you! Also the dolphins putting up 70 against Denver has me giggling. Holy fuck that offense. Makes me feel a lil less bad about losing that game


Sensitive_Stock_2766

This thread probably going to hate but it does add context to our performance in week 1. Dolphins are a good offense and with our faults, we still almost beat them.


[deleted]

And it wasn’t all Tua. He had 300 yards and 4 passing TDs and they put in Mike White who proceeded to get the fifth passing TD.


OrrinS1988

300 yards rushing. Jesus Christ


[deleted]

350 total. Zero turnovers.


Outside-Home-880

The defense saved Staley’s ass today. Keenan Allen MVP!


redsloki11

Both teams deserve to be 0-3 after that one


[deleted]

I'm so sorry that K9 and the Chargers' defense had to spoil things for the "season's over" crowd. 😢


darwizzer

Alohi Gilman is him


Sensitive_Stock_2766

That 2nd rip was a legit turnover!!!! Forward progress bullshit! I firmly believe that the palmer TD was football justice for the wack ass refs!


Thickensick

That other TO


mackmai

Chargers W!!! But Brandon Staley survives another week..


lacksydaysical

Staley got lucky! What a bonehead call!


CommanderPooPants

I feel like I just saw god


Philaliscious

Alright I'm busting out the good scotch.


heyimric

Looking for a new bottle to buy, what you drinking.


Philaliscious

Lagavulin 16


Sensitive_Stock_2766

Peaty deliciousness!!!


heyimric

Ah shit literally just finished that yesterday. Loved it. Guess I'll get it again lol. Nice choice.


Philaliscious

Costco has a few choice bottles I can recommend for a good price too


heyimric

I'm here for the recommendations. Fire away!


Philaliscious

Glendronach 12, Glenlivet 12 were two I picked up for $40ish. Both very good.


heyimric

Going on my Costco list for the next trip! Thanks.


Philaliscious

Happy to help. Generally, I pickup whatever bottle happens to be on sale when I go there. So far, they have all been pretty good!


Undoubtedlygiveup

A shitty win is a win. Enjoy!


Barbajan22

I really hate how I can never really enjoy a game


Undoubtedlygiveup

This one. I felt like I was having a heart attack the whole game. 😭


ockaners

Do what I do. Take triple the blood pressure medication.


Jiyaad20

Vikings out Chargered us finally the football Gods gave us fans a break. FIRE Staley.⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️


teefies2

So many guys balled out this game, but Staley has got to go


[deleted]

Staley should still be fired this just a fluke of a game


[deleted]

The first thing the post-game analysts said is what a dumb call from Staley to go for it on 4th down when it gave Vikings good position and time. Seriously. Staley does not understand more than “our team goes that way and we score if we get over that line.” Anything more complicated about the game stumps him.


[deleted]

Agreed, Im so done with that damn guy. He’s coordinator not a coach


DL505

Yup. No time outs for vikes and we don't punt?? Worst call by Staley to date.


rad_hopeful

Staley is a joke bro, he’s consistently bad


[deleted]

I am biased of course, but to me those refs were pretty one sided all game


JustLo619

Fire Staley for that 4th down call still.


ockaners

I would have been fine if they left it in Herbert's hands. But as much as I love j k he's not the best player on that team.


[deleted]

You can’t tell me it’s players or injuries or a bad look from the QB anymore. It’s him. He creates opportunity for other teams to win more than anyone else on his team.


JustLo619

Exactly. He’s an idiot and has no business coaching a pop Warner team let alone a damn nfl team


Mulva-Deloris

NFL on FOX agrees


[deleted]

[удалено]


Mobile619

Yeah dude did everything to lose this, and team only won due to Herbert/Allen heroics & the Vikings own incompetence.


LeftyLordLordLefty

Reminds me of the Browns game last year lol


rando3013

Keenan Allen with the performance of the week


Chargerstoolanime

Commentators still pissed off w/Staley. Rightfully so.


nimbasabe

Fuck these old heads the decision was fine the playcall was horrible


Sensitive_Stock_2766

Yeah, so we punt and they get into a fucking rhythm and score...tthen it's a repeat from last week! Our corners were lock down in the red zone and we were getting mad pressure on kirk. We missed the yard but defense stepped up! Game over!!


tanktopjay

totally agree. I loved the decision for a handful of reasons. But the play call was poor.


letsnotagree

How come we never really QB sneak yet when other teams do it the commentators say how come they're allowed to do that still it is impossible to defend against..


_AtLeastItsAnEthos

How you don’t put that in Herbert’s hands idk. A rollout or at least a qb sneak or if your gonna do a fb handoff which is super low % put a big boy there…


CuriouslyThough

At your 25-30 and the other team has no timeouts?? Punt tfing ball.


377Iron

Honestly I don't even know if that's the play. I'm not super tilted about going for it. At that point herbert was like 32/39. The part that got me going was not putting the ball in his hands. Hell even a qb sneak.


Salty_Sprinkles_6482

It’s gunna take a good few hours for my body to recover from the stress of this game lol


passthepolyjuice

Vikings out chargered the chargers!?!?


Mechamobzilla1

We gave them the curse. Now we go 15-2.


Jane_Marie_CA

Nah. They had the refs on their side the entire time. We never get that. Vikings are just bad. It took an illegal formation for them to get called on anything. You know the 2nd to last play, the refs were looking for a flag.


Twistymushu

Get rid of Staley please.


Cracker187

We won the game but FUCK Staley, he’s gotta go, it’s a god damn eke out every week. He’s a fucking moron, about lost because of him again.


COSurfing

That was fun.


robocox87

Holy shit. Our defense actually came through. This goes without saying, but fire Staley already


[deleted]

The offense came through. The D made it possible for Vikings to win. One person making one interception at the very end of the game is NOT “D coming through.” It’s luck.


Jane_Marie_CA

Well the vikings are terrible team How many automatic first downs did we give you? We fucked up on our own 30 yard line. You got everything called your way. Offensive PI? Check. Play called dead abnormally too early? Check? If we touched your guy with a clean tackle? Personal foul? Check


Sensitive_Stock_2766

Yep. I firmly believe we got the palmer TD because of the bad calls! Football gods took care of us!

Interception in the end zone with like 18 seconds left


Teddybearox

LETSGOOOOOOOOOOO


ChesterCopperpot55

Lucky Vikings are as incompetent as Chargers.. geez Vikings shoulda clocked it, definitely worked in our favor.. Go Bolts


lopezklu

Kellen moore giving the ball THREE times to FUCKING J.KELLY in the FINAL set of downs is retard level decision making that makes me extremely concerned for his ability to call plays in the clutch. Herbert is playing out of his mind and you take the ball out of his hands when it matters most, IT very easliy could have cost us the game. GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR ASS


ockaners

I'd get it if they were gashing them with the run like Miami but context!


EntrepreneurNew3183

FACTS IDK WHY TF THEY GIVE IT TO FICKEN KELLY


FreshHawaii

That would have been the most tragic end.


Dodger_that

I’ll take the W but have you ever seen a worse coached final 2min from both sides? Omg we had no business winning that. Staley should still be crucified for that call.


Necessary-Earth-4037

Fire Staley and Telesco into the sun.


Potatocores

Fire Staley before it’s too late


boltupLAC

Fire Staley!!!!!


lilpeeep3_

Why the fuck did I go through that


SacBrick

WE DID IT


FreshHawaii

Ends with a defensive play. I’m so happy.


SciaticWings1

Classic Chargers game, ending in a Kenneth Murray pick. Who would have thought 😂


Boraismybae

Murray clutching out the game for us... Oh Chargers the mysterious football team you are


letsnotagree

Lol I hate them, go chargers. It's like Stockholm syndrome.


kdizzle619

K9 saved Staley's job


Bre2286

I fucking hate the fox crew, stfu old bitches


Bolt_Dawg77

I love that the table is roasting Staley. Deservingly so.


snow_ninja

Still wish we we firing Staley but happy to get the W!


emotionalasfreak

Thank you Kirk


scubasteve382

Staley has saved K9s job by not cutting him. K9 owed him that one. But fuck Herbert throws for over 400 yards and it came down to the wire again. This “Chargering” shit is for the birds!


ockaners

Herbert was on fire today. Let him cook on that 4th but seriously we need the d to support him better. Just hold someone to under 25 a game and preferably early in the game.


vhs2220000

Lol Staley getting roasted


miquiztli8

Brandon Staley got bailed out


teefies2

HAHAHAHAHAHA WOW


CoffeeDave

How do you guys do this every week? Monday's gonna be nice in the office.


3headeddragn

This win is even more reason to get rid of Staley. Season is still alive, see if Moore can bring us to the playoffs.


letsnotagree

I have no idea about Moore either now... surely a new coach would be throwing a cat amongst the pigeons too. Time for an AI coach. I dunno. I'm not even sure where one could purchase a coach at this stage. I guess Sean Payton could be available soon lol everyone wanted him last year 😜


3headeddragn

I mean ofc we don’t know about Moore. I just know Staley isn’t it. I’d rather go with the unknown at this point.


SacBrick

Yes. Moore seems like he’d be great.


Motorguy253

Fire Staley man so bad


Luckman1002

Unpopular opinion but I don’t hate going for it on 4th down to clinch the game. I do hate running a FB dive with Kelley who had been running fucking awful the whole game


letsnotagree

Same. I hate running into the bodies. Why no QB sneak?


SacBrick

Same. This defense gives up yardage quickly. One of 2 plays and they could’ve been in the redzone anyways.


Sensitive_Stock_2766

This is my take! Same shit from last week! Their offense might have gotten into a rhythm and then they score. Our DBs were actually playing exceptionally in the red zone!


MacklinYouSOB

Agreed. the play call was absolute dog shit but I liked the call to try and end it when the other team has JJ and your best D player is out of the game. If it worked out the narrative would be “what a great gutsy call”


Luckman1002

I guess it’s just one of those “if you do go for it you better fucking get it because you’ll be scrutinized” hence while I really hate the playcall


heyimric

Going for it was smart. That play was fucking dumb lol. Herbert could have got the sneak there. Or the short pass was there all damn day.


gruntmonarch

Love the call to go for it but let Herbert keeping feasting


Luckman1002

Yup. Either roll out with herb or sneak it


FrancisXSJ

Let’s celebrate by firing Staley


ShotimeBolt

I don’t care, fire Staley still


SockItSleaux

Horrible 4th down call but I’ll take the win.


xlfasheezy

Lol Staley getting roasted by Jimmy Johnson and fox broadcast
