NoCalMike Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 The 2021 defense so far hasn't done anything to fix the slow sideline-to-sideline coverage. Any pass that goes sideways, the receiver ends up turning up and going 5 yards before a defense is even in the picture. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewCliche21 Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Thought the first drive was just spotting them. Now I think the second and third are the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I keep getting him confused with Lawrence for some reason. I'm an idiot who paid literally zero attention to the Chargers last year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yng Lady88 Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 we need some new **** on offense. it's obvious LA is going down the field as they please and we cant really stop them. stop the predictable runs on 1st ad 2nd down. involve other people that AB and Humphries. open some **** up for Thomas and Terry. it's criminal they havent been involved yet/as much.

Not what we expected. Yeah. Fitz hasn’t been great but he also hasn’t had the clean pockets that Herbert has had for the most part Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. I think Payne and Ioannidis are currently our most consistent on the DL. I hope we can eventually get Young looking like Bosa does now, he's a year behind him as far as experience. But every dropback, Bosa is bending the edge and almost there. Young hasn't been, in the few longer dropbacks that Herbert has had. And I'm a big fan of Chase, I just think if we want to call him one of the best in the NFL he's gotta show up each game.

mistertim Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Just now, ANONYMOUS SOURCE. said: Looking more like a “bend don’t break defense”……I hate those, ranks right up there with the “prevent” lol I think one of the problems is that we're not really getting much pressure with our front 4 and for some reason Del Rio seems uninterested in sending anyone extra. It looks super vanilla so far. Herbert has looked pretty comfortable in the pocket all game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long season, I suppose One thing: this is a Hella good offense. And no defense is going to shut down this offense the entire game. If you limit them to 20 points you’re doing really well.

Apollian Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 So far, not surprised by the result. the Skins offense didn't look that adaptive or ready in pre-season. and we are seeing the result of that. It's going to take a bit of time for Fitz to get the timing down with this offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel bad saying this but I've always thought he was overrated as a guy who was primarily a slot guy when here. I always favored breeland more. But when we included him in the trade for Smith there was so much love for him that I was like maybe I'm missing something. Then he picked off ?RG3? like 2 or 3 times last year and i was impressed and our pass defense was good with him so I was like ok. But I like that we signed WJ3 and StJuice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
