Runs to the left, the Chargers' death special.

2 absolutely embarrassing post season games against the AFCS by the Bolts Can't wait to see them choke against the Colts or Titans next in a couple years

 

[RedRocking]

Not good when your day is compared to Stan Humphries

Not good when your day is compared to Stan Humphries

He’s actually won playoff games though

 

[TheGreenTBer]

What a joke-ass team the Chargers are. No one should ever take them seriously ever again.

I thought they'd Charger this one but not like THIS.

 

[Breakers]

Too many people put Herbert at 5

Mahomes
Allen
Jackson
Burrow

And they would just slide in there at 5 like it was nothing

Pretenders.

f***ing pretenders.

 

[SwordsgoneWild]

I just hope the game tonight is actually worth something though this one was hilarious to watch.

 

[The Note]

Time now to watch the Steelers lose by 3 scores

Looks good for Khalil Mack, now an epic 0-4 in the postseason. This guy just sucks when it counts, but he always gushes for joy when some network plays ‘Return of the Mack’ when he does something.

Hey Mack, join your salad tossing buddy Derek Carr in the L column. f*** you **********

Too many people put Herbert at 5

Mahomes
Allen
Jackson
Burrow

Joe Burrow dragged a garbage OL all the way to the f***ing Super Bowl.

Justin Herbert isn't worthy to wipe Burrow's ass and i don't feel like a homer saying that.

There are definitely some things to be happy about in year one of Harbaugh, but this is a team that absolutely got overhyped by the media on the back of the Harbaugh effect, the long-term love affair with Herbert that certain types have and some big wins over crappy teams. It was never going to be a one-year turnaround and that proved true at the end of the day.

Meanwhile - the Texans deserved all the criticism but probably got dirt shoveled on them too quickly. The defense is excellent and the bones of that offense from last year have always been there.

[TheGreenTBer]

I'm going to dunk on the Chargers one more time because they deserve it.

How do you follow up that 1st quarter with THOSE 3 quarters against a massively depleted Texans team with zero momentum and a despondent fanbase? How can you be that freaking SOFT when everything is in your hands to start changing the narrative with your organization?

The ball was in their court and they Chargered it.

 

[MMC]

The dumbest people I know IRL are all Chargers fans including the dumbest friend in my friend group and the dumbest guy I work with

 

[EpochLink]

The NFL media has been crowning Justin Herbert as one of the best QB's in the league because of his stats, he's Derek Carr but with more team success.

Today was just bad, turnovers, missed receivers, bad decisions. Like what the f*** are you doing?

 

[Blitzkrug]

Herbert will deservedly wear this loss as he should but the reality of the matter is the Chargers were always kind of phony.

11-6 record, 2-6 record against teams with winning records with both of the wins coming against Denver. Not hard to be the #1 defense when you get to play the Raiders twice and then the Patriots and Titans.

These motherf***ers were just last year's Dolphins with a different coat of paint.

 

[BB88]

In the offseason nobody had any faith in the Chargers for this season and they had a very positive regular season to build on

Only to have all that momentum being ….ed by this game. Leaves a bad taste in your mouth, utter bs

They can’t be so stubborn and not add elite talent on offense. They have nobody outside of a rookie who can make a big play or trust to catch the ball

 

[Karterthadon]

Their plan was sound though, fortify the O-line to keep your QB upright (even though they were awful last night) then you add the weapons.

 

[GKJ]

I can give Herbert another year with Harbaugh, but it’s last call. I get losing receivers and having a rookie be his best option (and he is an excellent one), but what is the path to getting up to the next level? Teams and QB’s have won in this league without having superstar receivers.

 

[Karterthadon]

They need a better running back, a TE that can reliably catch the ball (That Dissly drop on 3rd down in the first quarter was appaling, they should have been up 13-0 at that point) and a WR deep threat.

I'm not a cap guy but is their cap situation any good? Tyreek can probably had for dirt cheap but he makes tons of money. He would be a great fit there with the added bonus that he'd be highly motivated to stick it to the Chiefs twice a year.

 

[Halladay]

Look at the what Stroud is working with and look at Herbert. I'm not sure which situation is better. No excuse for Herbert to be so terrible yesterday.
