I honestly don't think you can draw any conclusions about any specific part of the offense (outside of their WRs beyond Pickens being asscheeks) because of how disjointed the game has been with these penalties. The flow of the game has been completely ruined because the refs are calling a billion penalties.

All I'm taking away from here is that Fields should start week 3 and Jones should be on the bench.

Offense has been really putrid this half…predictable…I thought Matt Canada was calling plays for Pickett…Tomlin just wants to get out of games punting the ball lol

Complete a f**king pass…good lord

the whole saying about any drive that ends with a kick is good.. well coach T takes that to the extreme.

They won't be called for this many penalties next week, especially seemingly after every significant gain of yards they appeared to pick up in the 2nd half.

That said, I want to see a more creative offense next week. This overly safe hang on for dear life in the 4th quarter nonsense is never gonna cut it in this league against the better teams.

Seemed to go away from play action in the second half as well for the most part.

You didn't really witness 18 years of this. Nobody did really.

Welcome to the twilight zone

The Chargers are legit good…they’ll need to do a lot more to win the home opener…

That’s a burn the tape game.

I’d like to see Fields continue to start though. The first half was one of the better halves from a Pittsburgh QB that I’ve seen for a while. Pretty much every big play of his was wiped by a flag though.

Defense continues to live up to the hype but I think Bo Nix is also just terrible.
