I recall Flowers once being a pretty good CB, why did the Chiefs cut him?
You went 7-9 in 2012, were your backers healthy then? Why fight it guy, the Chargers are a very average defense. Not a strong unit on the defense, regardless of health. You drafted a DB number one for a reason, yep.....weak secondary....as I mentioned.
Stupid is ignoring reality.

They played a different system before reid got there. I think he was injured and didn't do well in the first game and they moved him inside where he wasn't as good.
And they saved a bunch of money by cutting him.
You can't really say that this Chargers team right now isn't a good road team, after going to Denver and Kansas City and winning both games. Then going to Cincinnati who were unbeaten at home and winning.
Dwight Freeney when healthy even at his age is a stud pass rusher. Many great young guys who can get to the QB such as Melvin Ingram (out all last year until playoffs where he gets an INT), Corey Liuget (led the team in sacks whilst playing with a shoulder injury all season) and Kendall Reyes.
Weddle is an elite safety, Flowers is a damn near elite corner when playing in the right system.
You may be right, the team may very well only win 8 games, but I believe that they could very easily win 10-12 games if every player is healthy.
But but but his almanacs say it, so it must be true!
It happened with the Saints defense last season. The year before they were the worst defense in NFL history and this past season they were a top 5 overall defense.
I'm rooting for this Chargers team to contend for the AFC West and in the AFC in general.
Well, lost in the traditional week 1 chokejob was the ing amazing performance of our top 2 rookies, Jason Verrett and Jerry Attaochu.... for last night's game, Verrett tied with Weddle for the best overall grade on the team at +3.5, and he led the defense in pass coverage with a +3.3 grade despite going up against Larry ing Fitzgerald.... he didn't even look like a rookie out there... meanwhile, Attaochu led our defense with a pass-rushing grade of +1.8 (including a strip-sack of Palmer) and even blocked a punt.... loved both picks at the time and they look even better now....
Too bad this young talent is being wasted by our gutless, pussy, Norv-esque coaching staff and an inbred quarterback who's responsible for more kids than clutch drives....
Allen dropped the game on that final game
Teo shouldn't be starting on a Playoff team
Verrett was mostly matched up with a rookie and was on fitz a little bit. Flowers was mostly on Fitz and did very well.
Didn't say he was on Fitz all game, just that he went up against Fitz occasionally....
Hardwick out for year.
Welp, it was a good run, if you need me I'll be in the Soccer forum.
That + Fluker getting an MRI = we fuuuuuuuuucked!
Oh well, at least we can finally dump Philbilly and his 86 kids once we draft Mariota....
Man, that sucks for you Charger fans.
its a shame Philbilly's contract didn't expire last year, your Carr > Rivers dream could have come true
Time for him to retire.
Kinda, but he is usually hurt anyways so now we can fill his spot with someone who isn't.
I'll amend my first statement. That rookie should be starting soon because he is that dang good.
Verrett looked really impressive. I'd take him over Heart Surgery Hayden
Hurt always? He's started in 136 games and 67 straight...that doesn't seem to me to be the definition of 'injury proned'...
I stand corrected. I could have sworn he had years like 2009 more recently. And I thought he missed some time from a concussion and other nagging injuries. Where have I been?
Could've possibly been the people around him--they've been decimated with injuries.
Flowers out today.... we're gonna get raped, no lube, Seattle might put up 60
why does it matter if their qb is just a game manager anyway?Flowers out today.... we're gonna get raped, no lube, Seattle might put up 60
