The 2014-15 Official Chargers Football/Keenan Allen Domination Thread

[Clipper Nation]

The Chargers are actually exciting and worth looking forward to this year for the first time in a while, tbh.... Philbilly is coming off an epic rebound year, Keenan Allen basically just took a wet shit on the league, and Danny Woodhead has been a diamond in the rough for us.... with Jizzenhunt gone, the playcalling should improve, especially in the red zone, and another good draft from Telesco should address some of the obvious holes in our defense....

I'm thinking 9 wins again because of how tough the schedule is, but a deeper playoff run, tbh...

[MeloHype]

Keenan Allen is gonna get 199 catches 2078 yards and 32 TDs & Eric Weddle is gonna win DPOY

[DeadlyDynasty]

Assuming Rivers continues his renaissance, the Chargers should be damn good. Aren't they getting Floyd back from injury too?

[The Gemini Method]

Man, what might've been? The L.A. Seahawks vs the L.A. Chargers of Anaheim! In 2014!

Alexander might be gone...isn't he a FA?

Yeah, I just saw they're gonna release him cause of his knee injuries

we need the ones where he got a penalty for causing someone to fall by juking them out.

edit: there is one on this page. I can't save it though. I think there is another one where the defender falls down though. http://ftw.usatoday.com/2013/11/phantom-pass-interference/

So where do they get 10 wins?

They do have a very weak secondary. And no stud pass rushers, that is not a good combo.

You are living in the past. We jettisoned Cox who didn't fit our system and signed flowers who does. Wright and Addae are more experienced. We got what some people think was the best corner in the draft. And we still have one of the best free safeties in the NFL.
Also all four of our starting LB's were injured for a good amount of the season last year.

ANd we haven't gone better than 5-3 on the road since early in Norv's tenure (2009) before him and AJ completely screwed the team up. Now our HC isn't a rookie anymore and we will probably be less likely to give away so many games again.

Dude, nobody knows more about what is happening in todays NFL than myself.

Your Charger DB's got a 6 ranking in my 2014 LINDYS PRO FOOTBALL PREVIEW. That is weak, ya see the Seahawks got a 9.5.

Do you want a little mini bio on all your defensive backs?

How about just..

Marcus Gilchrist...should be better in his second year
Richard Marshall....Verret could challenge him
Eric Weddle...has the ability to find the baol, keep others in the right spot.
Sharence Wright...had ups and downs, but should be better in 2014.

In ranking this seasons secondaries the Chargers came in .....ah....weren't ranked in the top 15. Ranking the individuals, only Weddle was ranked at number two.

Rookie Jason Verrett..needs to bulk uo a bit, a raw tackler.

Dude, at what point does your dumb ass figure out I.'m totally wrapped up in todays NFL? The history shit is just because......I can!

Your Chargers were ranked 29th vs the pass last season, now think stupid. Your best pass rusher had only 5 sacks, what's that tell us? Yep, QB's are having time to set and throw now what's that tell us?

I don't know todays NFL., hahahaha!!!!!!!!! That has gotta be the dumbest thing you've ever said. Talk to me about rookie Marion Grice out of ASU, I know....who?

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.

I recall Flowers once being a pretty good CB, why did the Chiefs cut him?

[Aztecfan03]

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.

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.

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.

[Pelicans78]

I'm rooting for this Chargers team to contend for the AFC West and in the AFC in general.

[Clipper Nation]

Well, lost in the traditional week 1 chokejob was the fucking 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 fucking 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....

Let them gloat, as another team that will beat us at some point this year will. We just won the SB, these wins mean the world to them :lol. But, the Chargers played excellently, and the conditions definitely exacerbated the situation. It's better to see something like this in week 2, than in week 16. S.F losing definitely made me feel a lot better. Although Arizona is cause for concern. But, this game was very important as we are still down two corners heading into this Denver game, and Denver looks all salty and wants their regular season revenge :lol While losing another Non-Conference game wouldn't be the end of the world, it certainly would be a setback headed into the bye week as 3 of the first 4 games after the bye week are on the road.

But your team was dominated if not for officiating. Allen and the WR did their job and every throw that went Sherman's way was caught.

[The Gemini Method]

Ifs don't count--you won there's no way around that. But to say Sherman was dominated more so than the LBs against Gates would be wrong. People just want to call him out for not being a 'humble' sports star so they see his responsibility got 5 catches for 55 yards. Wasn't one of his best games but when you're having to dedicate 3-4 people to the middle and the TE, you're going to be sieving yards all over the board. San Diego were fortunate to get 3 fumbles back and Rivers proved his mettle by getting obliterated at times and getting back up. It was a solid win for the Chargers but it is also week 2 and both teams still have issues that they need to address.

Sherman wasn't dominated but he did look silly.

[The Gemini Method]

Sherman wasn't dominated but he did look silly.

The whole defense looked silly. It looked like they warped back to the days of Lofa Tatupu and Marcus Trufant. There were no check downs to the TE by the safety help and it left them one on one vs. Gates. Though, it did also look like Rivers just chucking it to Gates and hoping he caught them. It was an earnest return to '08 by Gates and that's why the Hawks couldn't handle the Chargers.

Gates was making catches he hasn't made in a while. Those are catches he usually drops.

[Aztecfan03]

Melvin Ingram out vs. Bills :depressed
At least Johnson is back. We need him vs. the Bills run game.

[Blizzardwizard]

Ingram on IR.

Bets on which player(s) goes down this week?

[Aztecfan03]

Ingram on IR.

Bets on which player(s) goes down this week?

He has the designation to return again. Out until at least Nov. 9.

I would say hopefully Reyes goes down, but I don't think we have much depth on the d-line.

[Fabbs]

Gates best play besides the outstretched TD reception was tucking the ball away after a catch thus hanging on when the 'Hawks DB/LB gave him the one-two. He has become quite a liability with his fumbles.

As to the Cheathawks vastly overated D, i got a kick out of Mophead acting all non chalant between every play including right up to the snap. He tries to do a Deon Sanders imitation and failed. If not for the underthrown Krapernik pass attempt and the mere average play to break it up, Mophead is not nearly the media hype he currently is.

[DD]

Bills pass rush is gonna beat up Rivers all day imo...hopefully EJ can keep up his game-managing ways

[Fabbs]

Bills rush will beat Chargers O line agreed, so it will be interesting to see if and how O Coor Frank Reich counters.
Game 1, the giveaway vs the Cardinals he did not use Danny Woodchuck very much. Royal and Gates were in slacker mode dropping balls and being lazy asses so hard to gauge.

Game 2 vs the CheatHawks, lots of timely short dump offs to Woodchuck and Royal. Some good quick counter runs up the middle too. Gates was exerting himself and while the 3 tds rightly get all the media hype, it was Gates holding while being two man tackled that showed great progress over his past 3 years self.

If Chargers can move chains and at least do a 50-50 it should be a close game.

You do know it's an 80% chance of rain, right? PhillBilly has actually played in rain quite a bit going back to his North Carolina State days.

How does Buffalo QB and Buffalo in general usually do in the rain?

All in all advantage Buffalo.

It would be classic Chargers to come out and get bitchslapped by the Bills after getting everyone's hopes up last week, so I pretty much expect it to happen....

The weather will make it harder to pass in Buffalo, the Chargers pass defense is a lot better than last year and we will have flowers and addae back, and Manuel won't do a whole lot with his legs. Their Rb's could be good plays though.

Patriots are going against the raiders so at least they face a terrible defense.

Have you seen how Phildo thinks he is Peyton Manning with his check offs at the line?
If they stick with plenty of dinker passes to Woodhead and Royal etc, fine. (Well, maybe not in tommorows rain.)
But i swear against the Cardinals the Hillbilly was calling all kinds of weird shit and at the last second too. Players were looking at him with body language like, what? What are you changing the play to???? And then he doesn't get them the info on time. He is still playing Peyton as the game clock goes below 2. :lol
That snap that he tried blaming on the center, pouting as he slammed the ball down to the turf. No doubt it was Philbilly, not the centers fault.

It sure has worked out to be a good move so far.

Or they need someone from the bench or practice squad to really step up.
Remember when Vincent Jackson went down injured / pouted with his agents when the Chargers wisely refused to make him one of the top 3 WRs? Arijutu (sp) stepped right in and caught just as many for just as many yards.

Replacing Danny Woodchuck tho. That is not gonna happen. :( Guy was so versatile and put forth great effort each and every play every game.

Are you talking about when seyi caught only 13 passes for 262 yards in 10 games in 2010. Nothing close to VJ's production.

Seyi Ajirotutu played in 6 games in 2010. :rolleyes
He and Jackson both got targeted about the exact same number of times (24-23).
If you throw out a complete suck ass game Rivers had vs the Raiders (2-8 going for Seyi), Seyis completion to target rate was 11-15 with 20 yards per catch. I know Rivers must have thrown VJ some suck ass throws too, but VJ has cronically sucky catch per target rates for his entire career.

Like I said before, He has faced Sherman, Peterson, and a tough Bills defense with 20 mph winds in the first 3 weeks. Rivers does like to sppread the ball around, but Allen should still get some good games soon. His next 7 games are jags, jets, raiders, chiefs, broncos, dolphins, raiders.

Last year, The San Diego Chargers were among the worst teams in the league in pass coverage with -47.6 overall grade; 3rd worst in the NFL. Their highest ranked cornerback last year (Johnny Patrick) was listed as the 95th best in the league.

All that has changed in just a year for The Chargers who now have the 4th highest pass coverage grade in the NFL. A big reason for the turn around is offseason free agent pick-up Brandon Flowers; who as of now sits comfortably as our top ranked cornerback (+10.1). Flowers looks to be one of the major free agent bargains this year.

They do have a very weak secondary. And no stud pass rushers, that is not a good combo.

PFF's Race for Rookie of the Year, Week 6:

https://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2014/10/15/race-for-rookie-of-the-year-week-6-3/

5. Jason Verrett, CB, SD: +7.7
Playing time was initially his biggest obstacle but he’s overcome that and backed it up with a series of strong performances. Allowing just 44% of balls thrown into his coverage to be complete. Took a wet shit on Derek Choke and the lolraiders with his first career pick in the clutch.


10. Branden Oliver, RB, SD: +2.8
The Chargers may have found something with Oliver. The undrafted free agent can turn open space into big yards and push the pile enough when required. Really taken advantage of a depleted backfield, but how will he fare as others at his spot return?

[Clipper Nation]

Pro Football Focus ranks Flowers as the best cornerback in the NFL through Week 6 of the NFL season.

http://www.nfl.com/videos/oakland-raiders/0ap3000000410118/Week-6-Derek-Carr-highlights

he's the one they went after in play #1, 2, and 5 from those clips, all of which were for good yardage and first downs. in his fairness he did get credited with 2 passes defended, but he was also the beneficiary of a james jones drop on the right sideline.

[Chinook]

He and Mosley. CJ may have the nod in the general populace because he's making a ton of splash plays that show up on the stats (sacks, turnovers), but I think Mack's been a great pick for Oakland/SA. Have to start off with one.

[Chinook]

Chargers fans, I've been meaning to ask this for a while: What type of offense does SD run? I know they ran an AC back in the Norv days. Is that still the case now?

I know the AC has its problems (the Ravens ran it for six years), but for a team like Tampa, I think it would be good.

He and Mosley. CJ may have the nod in the general populace because he's making a ton of splash plays that show up on the stats (sacks, turnovers), but I think Mack's been a great pick for Oakland/SA. Have to start off with one.
I don't think Mack has a chance in hell at actually getting DROY. As a unit the Raiders are a way below average defense, and i don't see them giving that award to somebody on our defense. Even though PFF isn't exactly mainstream media, its good to see he's actually getting some recognition despite not having many flash plays yet.

Yeah, I agree. I'm really enjoying my Mosley crow right now as well. Just sucks that Arthur Brown seems to have been a wasted pick. I haven't heard much about Aaron Donald, who's between Mack and Mosley in the rankings. Everyone thought he was going to be good coming out, but I didn't think he'd get much chance to shine of that stacked D-line in STL.

Good defensive hold to the field goal after the moronic Roughing the Passer play.
10-7 with ball back.

:lol 1st offensive play, PhilBilly letting us know he is fully capable of reverting back to suckage. Lucky fumble recovery.

[Fabbs]

sig pic of chick in flannel shirt
get her name.

Alex Smith Game Manager haters are full of it.
He's having another good game.
3 dropped balls by KC receivers.

Lucky break for Bolts.

[Fabbs]

Down 20-17 5:40 left.
We'll see if PhilBilly can lead a drive. Preferably a time consuming TD drive.

[Kool Bob Love]

Boyz looking good. :nerd

Sucky final drive.
Throws a jump ball to Royal :lol
Then tries to force it per usual to Sacred Cow Gates.

He certainly wasn't amazing today, but in fairness, he was having a historic stretch of games the past few weeks and as good as he is, that wasn't going to last.... this loss is squarely on the defense, specifically the defensive coordinator....

keenan allen is such shit. thanks for the jinx thread fgt

The phuck is up with CBS's coverage. Liguiet gets flagged for a cruicial facemasking that sure did not look like one. Asshats show only one horrible replay that showed nothing. KC seemed to get burned on some calls too. Nonetheless, i wanna see that facemask replay from a good angle.

[The Gemini Method]

Is it time to drop Keenan Allen and start Sammy Watkins? I don't know mayne...trying to justify why I keep starting him.

Same here, I benched Sammy this week and almost lost because of it.

Well, lucky for Keenan Allen, I have AJ Green so he is needed. Sammy W. got the start because of the absence of Green. I'm thinking when Green gets back, I'll bench Allen.

Good riddance, should have been cut weeks ago!

[vander]

we're a bit short on corners, who're they going to replace him with? Keenan Allen in dime situations?

[The Gemini Method]

Not his fault he was shoved into the starting role--that's not his strong suit. He's better down the Dime/Nickle Line and without Varnett you guys are still shallow in the DB pool. Tannehill coming to push yo shit it for realz. J/K Tannehill is meh. But Richard Crawford was signed by the FO...so it has a little more depth.

[Robz4000]

They brought in another dude for depth (also named Richard iirc), but the move was made because Flowers should be good to go next week from what it sounds like.

Defending the pass also isn't his strong suit.

Worst medical and S&C staffs in the league by far. This many critical injuries year in, year out isn't a fluke. This is the organization that kept Dr. Chao employed for years after he was exposed as a fraud, and only fired him under pressure from the players' union.

[Avante]

The Chargers can't lose three in a row. Miami is no push over at home, if we recall they beat the Chargers there last season. One play from beating GB.

[chunticakes]

Miami wins by 3.

Miami one of the best HD in the league, the last three seasons....7-3.

Let's not laud our health staff...they have yet to produce a healthy squad for a season (yes I know injuries are inevitable...but it seems like someone is always dropping)!

I'm jumping on the bandwagon this week, Chargers will surely put up many many points on the Raiders, I will even be starting Keenan Allen AND Ryan Mathews in a 10 team league with the playoffs still in question :downspin:

i don't like either play tbh. the raiders are actually solid against the run in terms of YPA... and Mathews will be eased back. i don't think he'll get high volume. I expect Oliver to do better with the screen game, which the raiders have been terrible against.

Allen's production this seasons has depended on the playcalling. in his most successful games this year they were drawing up all the high% plays just for him (like quick hits, bubble screens, short hitches)... he has struggled to get separation on downfield routes, which is why his yards per catch are pretty low

i drafted Keenan in one of my leagues but dumped him off for Josh Gordon after his 1 good game. looks to have been the right move

[Aztecfan03]

Jason Verrett is done for the year.

2015 was the year we were going for anyways

[MultiTroll]

Will Frank Reich-McCoy give Oliver some screens or continue to line him up alone, 7 yards deep in the backfield for some smashmouth up the gut football.
For the auto 2 yard loss. :lol

:lol We will be lucky to beat the Raiders. Putting up many many points? Are you out of your mind?

I'm expecting a repeat of the embarrassment last year when we lost to Terrelle Pryor at home. I'm actually hoping for it, since tanking and losing out is preferable to the current 7-9 win no man's land.

[Avante]

The Chargers coming off a bye at home vs one of the weakess teams in the league, what's not to like? Losing at Miami/Denver and a good KC team is a whole other deal. The Raiders are 2-19SU on the road their last 22.

For someone who loves "spots," you think you'd know that we haven't won after a bye since 2010. And all of our losses after the bye week in recent years have been to shitty teams (Jets, Browns, Redskins). We also barely squeaked past the Raiders in Oakland, and our defense is garbage.

All that matters is how the Chargers do under McCoy. Last time you played the Raiders at home 27-13. And they had won 4 games not...0.

The Chargers have the Raiders and Rams back to back at home. They know they must win these two because after that.......wow!!!!!! If the Chargers can beat Seattle at home............................

guess i was wrong about the RB's. still, Mathews only ended up with 8.5 points in PPR leagues, which is pretty lousy.

Keenan Allen wasn't terrible, ended up with 14.3 PPR points, but I stand by my assessment of him. The guy can't get open. The only way he stays productive is if the Chargers keep forcing him little baby targets off of 1 step drops. 8 yards per catch today... 13 targets and only netted 63 yards
